The Da Vinci Code Silas - 025 Strangers
Title: Whispers of Strangers
Fandom: The Da Vinci Code
Characters: Silas
Prompt: 025 Strangers
Word Count: 206
Rating: G
Summary: He sees the way they look at him
He hears the whispering, or rather it’s all he hears, their voices echo in his mind as he shivers beneath a thin scrap of fabric that he’s been lucky enough to find in the garbage. He pulls it around him and tries to block it out, their harsh words and stares. A ghost with the eyes of the devil. He should not care what they think, they are strangers to him their opinion should not matter and perhaps that would be the case if it was just one or two people, but it isn’t it’s everyone whose path he crosses. All of the runaways get that ‘look,’ the one that says they should be ashamed of themselves, that they should not allow themselves to be seen, but the look Silas gets is something different, there’s fear there and disgust. They don’t even know him and yet they fear him, everyone he has ever met has had that same look in his eyes, even his parents and he wonders if he’s going to die alone, or if maybe one day he will be lucky enough to find something that understands, that sees past his skin and sees the real him, he will not hold his breath though.
