Writing From the Inside

Summary: Willie goes about his chores and wonders if this is as good as it gets. And then bad things happen.
A/N: This is a stream of consciousness story, and up to that point that I wrote it, no one had written a first person Willie POV story, so I took it upon myself. This story is a one-off story that takes place in no particular verse, and, as most of my stories do, the events occur before Willie entered the looney bin.

Title: The Willie and Barnabas Diversion

Summary: Willie can’t remember why he used to be afraid of his boss. But, once he sees Barnabas attack Adam, it starts to come to him, and no matter how far Willie runs, the memories are going to catch up to him.
A/N: This is one of the few stories I wrote that takes place after Willie gets out of the loonie bin. I thought his character wasn’t as interesting in this weakened state, yet, one very hot August week, this story came to me. Go figure.

Willie raced up the stairs, all out and breathless, his hands grabbing the next riser as soon as his feet found purchase. At any moment, a large, scarred hand was going to reach for him, he just knew it, grab him and pull him down to the floor and finish what it had started. He slipped a bit on the top stair, his leather soled shoes missing their grip on the carpet, and then he looked back, over his shoulder. Adam had Barnabas in a death grip, and though Julia shrieked and tried to pull him off, Willie knew that she would fail. Adam would kill Barnabas, and then he would turn on Julia, and then he would come looking for Willie.
