Peice of Sky - Part 1 (A Dark Shadows Story)

Title: Piece of Sky

Author: Lovesrain44

Genre/Rating: Slash/R

Pairing: Willie/Barnabas

Word Count: 17,626

Fandom: Dark Shadows

Verse: Splinter Verse (#3)

Summary: Barnabas has sent Willie to pick up a present for Miss Winters. Willie ruins everything, and must be punished. However, in doing so, Barnabas comes up against his servant’s odd proclivities to endure more than he must to get what he needs.

A/N: This story is the same as The Price, but is written from Barn’s POV. The problem with writing from the bad guy’s point of view is that you often get more insight into what makes him tick than is good for you. I found that while writing this story I was “channeling” Barn. I got AWFULLY bossy and picky, but I just wanted things the way I wanted them, and what’s wrong with that?

The rain woke him, startling him from a tangled bay of memories, drawing him up with the cool scent of the sea carried inland as a heavy pall sifted through the house around him. He could almost feel the weight of the darkness as he got up and made his way to the library, easing the wrinkles from his clothes as he went, and taste the dampness in his throat. And hear the silence beyond the faint, faraway humming in his head.
