~6 days till the promposal~

~Luca's POV~

I woke up like any other day. I got out of bed and slipped on the baggy clothes I usually wear. Then comes the hard part.

Leaving.

I slowly and quietly slip out of my bedroom with everything I would need for the next few days. Chargers. Clothes. A water bottle. Soap. I was going to live in the janitorial closet. The one no one used. Then i heard creaking coming from his room. I froze when he opened the door and saw my ginormous duffle bag. He slapped me and pinned me against a wall. No please not today.

i started to scream.

"DAD NO PLEASE NOT TODAY" he didn't care.

He yanked off my pants and then my boxers.

"Here's what you get for trying to run away you dirty little slut" He shoved his micro deck into me and I just couldn't stop screaming.

"AH- NO PLEASE STOP" It all hurt.

Until I went numb. All of the pain just drifted into nothing until he was done using me. Afterwards I picked myself up, put my clothes back on, grabbed my bag and left. I was never coming back here. I made sure the razors came with me.

~Ash's POV~

I went to school with a smile. Today was gonna be a good day. At least that's what I thought.

Until I saw him.

His eyes and cheeks were red along with his eyes hitch were puffy and his breath- he was hyperventilating.

I rushed over as quickly as I could and took him into my arms. He was stunned and hugged me back. I let him sob into my shoulder before lifting him up and taking him into the bathroom. I took us into a stall and sat on thee floor with him in my lap.

"Tell me everything Luca" And he did.

About his dad. And the sexual abuse just this morning. And how he had relapsed not an hour ago.

~Luca's POV an hour before~

I sat in the locker room supply room with the blade in my hand. I held the cool piece of metal against my wrist and started to dive into the thoughts. For every thought I would make one cut. The first.

You are a whore.

One cut.

Disgusting piece of shit.

2 cut.

Used.

3 cut.

Dirty.

4 cut.

Sex doll.

5 cut.

Just a piece of ass

6 cut.

Scrawny.

7 cut

Hated.

8 cut

Unlovable.

9th and final cut.

The blood was immeasurable and the pain was even worse.

And so the tears started flowing.

Slowly at first but the more the shock wore off the more thy came. They came and came. Unstoppable. I took the bandages out of my bag pocket with shaky hands, slowly wrapping my arms in them. Round and round.

~back to real time and Ash's POV~

I was stunned to say the least. All I could do was hold him and comfort him while he cried. Occasionally whispering sweet nothing's into his ear. I loved him but he was vulnerable and I don't want to fuck with his emotions. So I just placed soft kisses onto his neck and rubbed his back for as long as I could.

"Come stay with me" I breathed out into his ear.

He perked up his head and he shot me the most serious look ever.

"You don't mean that. Don't play with me like that." I could see his eyes starting to well up with more tears.

"I'm not fucking with you. I want you to come stay with me and I want you to be safe. I know that the only way that I could ever keep you safe is for me to keep you close to me. Please Luca." I looked up at him with pleading eyes and I eventually saw him nod.

"I will come stay with you then"
