Why Does Brick Whisper To Himself In The Middle Novels & Stories

Why? It's 7 am already but she's not awake yet. Isn't she going to work? I hope she does. Maybe she'll be late. Yeah, she should rest. Why the hell am I even talking to myself? I left a note on the table for her and decided to go to work already. “Hey, are you listening?” Neo, my co-engineer asked. I was startled and went back to reality. “Y-yeah, what was it again? Sorry,” I said and shook my head.

I was damping my hands before tapping my face lightly with water. I hope this wakes me up. “Get your shit together, Lianna!” I whispered to myself. I turned the faucet off and that was when silence enveloped the bathroom. Something crawled within my skin. I didn’t realize I was all alone in the restroom! With fear and slight annoyance, I quickly walked out of the bathroom with my heart beating loudly. I was so fucking scared, alright! “Fuck,” I cursed. “What the hell was that?” I held my chest tightly, hoping a single hand of mine would at least calm the beating. But it didn’t work, my heart was hammering through my ribs and it was amplifying through my whole system.

SELENE The smile on his face didn’t reach his eyes. It sat there, lazy and sure, like he had already made a choice for me and didn’t see any reason to rush it. I took a step back without thinking. Brick met my spine. Cold. Rough. Real. The alley narrowed around me all at once. It wasn’t long. It wasn’t wide. Just walls, shadows, and the smell of damp concrete. My heels scraped the ground as I shifted my weight, trying to find space that wasn’t there.

I sang as I powered up with a mushroom. I could feel my brother roll his eyes next to me. A minute passed. Brick sighed. He shifted restlessly. He plopped his hands into his lap. “How long do you think she’s going to be?” “A while,” was my guess. “Damn,” he said again. My thoughts exactly. Five minutes later, Brick had prowled around the bench and returned to me twice, both times when someone had tried to talk to him in a language neither of us understood. “Hey, want to share your Game Boy?” he asked. “Take turns on it?”

“Ridiculously ready to sex you up.” With a sigh, I turned away and entered my apartment, leaving him out in the hall. But as I swung the door shut behind me, a hand caught it, keeping it from closing. And Brick sauntered inside after me, whistling cheerfully. “And you’re going to be the one to set the wheels into motion, Mayhem,” he promised, strolling through my kitchen as if he owned it, only to pause at a picture on the countertop of me and Gran together. He picked it up, studied it a moment and set it back down again, refocusing his attention on me. “Hell, I bet you come on to me so hard I’m not even going to know what hit me.”

It’s just shocking because Brick is loud but now I can’t even feel that he wants to talk. I was just looking outside while traveling, I just wanted to look around the place I left for a few years. “Are you hungry?” I face Brick when he asks. I can sense now that he’s back to his personality, the one that I recognized when I first saw him--- his light and funny personality. “No.” I simply said “Thirsty?” he asked again. “No... I’m okay” I replied to him and the silence return again inside the car. I think it will be 1 hour before we reach the place where we are close to Logan’s hospital.

An ethereal being with translucent red hair came out of Rose and stood, watching her behind. This was Rose's whisper, the very one she had used to lure the men to the house she had been trapped in with her sisters. Rose exhaled. "You are the greatest of all my whispers. What do you think I should do?" Never had she asked advice from a whisper before, not even hers. The whisper looked at Rose with uncertainty and whispered, "Are you certain that I am free to speak?" Rose nodded. "Yes."

Brick by psychic brick. "What if it’s not enough?" The whisper escaped, small and vulnerable in the quiet garden. "What if Thorne’s fear spreads? What if the pack cracks before… before Ashton comes back?" *Anchor. Home.* The thought of him sent a familiar ache through my chest, a longing so sharp it momentarily pierced the layered calm. *Hold. Protect. Wait.*

I pushed the brick like you would a button and it slowly receded on its own. "I was going to tell you a secret. On second thought, let me just show you what I'm talking about." I looked around and made sure no one was watching. I then turned my head to face the wall positioned in the farthest side of the hallway. Starting from the biggest brick at the exact center of the wall, I counted seven bricks to the left, three heading north, and one to the right. I pushed the brick like you would a button and it slowly receded on its own. The brick disappeared and brought out a lever in place of it. I held the lever and pushed it down.
