Whump Prompt #28
Whumpee manages to convince everyone that they weren’t held captive. They just needed a few weeks alone, nothing special. No one forced them.
It’s far from the truth. Whumpee was taken hostage, but they think everyone will think they’re weak if they admit they weren’t able to fight off whumper.
They shame themself for being weak, for having not been aware enough to notice whumper following them. And they just want to tell someone. They want someone to know about the pain and humiliation they’ve been through, but there’s no one that they haven’t convinced that they’re fine.
They’re getting a little closer to admitting it each day. Maybe they’d have told someone eventually, but then they bolt awake from a nightmare in the common area, mind flooded by panic. Someone grabs them to try to calm them down, and they panic.
Someone is touching them. And is it the hands from their dream, is it their mind playing tricks on them because they swear they’re seeing their friend’s face, but it has to be whumper touching them because there’s no chance they got free.
And everything comes out. All their secrets pour out of them like a waterfall that doesn’t stop until every detail of their captivity has been drained out of them.
