Don't Want To Be Alone
NumbSkull
"Why agonize? Anesthetize!"

"Graverobbers will be exucuted on sight."
Or so a sign pinned on a dirty brick wall proclaimed. But a young man passed by the poster without so much as a second glance and trotted into an old graveyard. He was dressed punk-ish, as many of the people of the street were these days with a heavy assortment of jewelery and intricate tattoos. Though it was chilly out, all he had on was a vest fastened together with zippers and thread. There was a tattoo on his shoulder, a skull with glowing blue eyes, which indicated him as NumbSkull, one of the prominet Graverobbers in his district.
Numbskull smiled as he approached the graves and hacked out a cough as he crept towards on of them. His fingers twitched as he hovered over one of the graves that read simply 'Eleanor,' without a last name or epitaph. "I've returned for some more, my dear," he said in a hussed whisper while he lifted the stone covering of her tomb. The body inside looked relatively fresh, but it was starting to smell foul and decompose inside. But it was easy to tell that the girl who was inside had been quite pretty when she was alive.
"Forgive me for this Ella, but it will only take a moment," said NumbSkull, his teeth clicking on the rings in his lip that ran up to his ears. He reached into the satchel slung over his shoulder and removed his Zyringe, which he promptly shoved into the poor deceased girl's nose until he reached the place he was looking for. He pulled the plunger back and the vial slowly filled with a pulsing blue liquid. "Just a bit of the glow is all I need," he hummed while he tucked the vial into his bag when he was done. His eyes and fingers continued to twitch. His nervous ticks were quite irritating.
At last he leaned down to the body and ran his fingers over her cold skin. "You are an exquisite corpse," he breathed as he bent down, touching his lips against hers. He ignored the smell of rotting flesh and continued to kiss and caress the girl. He glanced up for a moment to see if anyone was watching before he resumed. His odd fetish tending to disturb others. NumbSkull couldn't imagine why.
Even if she's just skin and bone...
