Hello!
Hope you enjoy! Basically most of the chapters are going to be in Karl's POV, so I'll let you know if that changes!
TW: abuse, swearing.
______________________________________The day ended and Sapnap and I say our goodbyes and I get in my car to drive to Rachel's school. I luckily get there pretty early and after about, 15 minutes, I see Rachel walk up to the car. I was smiling a lot. "Why are you so smiley?" Rachel questioned. "I made a friend today!" I answered. "Finally, Jesus Christ! I'm tired of me being your only friend." Rachel says dramatically. "So, what's their name?" Rachel asks. "His name is Sapnap!" "That's a kinda weird name" Rachel says, a confused look present on her face. "Shut up, he doesn't like to be called by his real name" I say as Rachel nods.
As we finally reached our home, we couldn't help but feel a sense of relief wash over us. However, our moment of peace was short-lived, for as we pulled into the driveway, we were met with the sight of our father's car parked right outside.
Our hearts sank at the realization that he had come yet again. Our father was not someone who came around for pleasant visits, but rather only when he needed money or when he wanted to inflict harm upon us. We knew all too well the kind of pain and suffering he was capable of, and the mere sight of his car was enough to send shivers down our spines.
We hesitantly stepped inside, bracing ourselves for whatever was to come. As we entered the living room, we saw our father sitting on the couch with his girlfriend. Even though we had only met her once before, we knew that she was not someone we wanted to be around. Her cold and distant demeanor made us feel uneasy, and we couldn't help but wonder what kind of influence she had on our father.
As we tried to make our way past them and up the stairs, our father's piercing gaze followed us, and we could feel the weight of his disapproving stare on our backs. We knew that we had to tread carefully, for any wrong move could set him off. However, as we reached the top of the stairs, we could already hear his heavy footsteps coming up after us.
The fear and apprehension we felt in that moment were almost palpable, and we knew that we had to be on high alert. We were determined to protect ourselves and each other, and we hoped that we could make it through the encounter unscathed. However, deep down, we knew that our father was unpredictable, and that anything could happen.
My sister Rachel and I were frantically running through the house, our hearts pounding in our chests. We had just caught sight of our father outside the window, and we knew that he was coming for us. Without a second thought, we dashed into the nearest room, which happened to be the bathroom, and locked the door behind us.
But our sense of safety was short-lived, for we could hear our father's angry and violent voice bellowing from the other side of the door. "OPEN THIS FUCKING DOOR!" he roared, his fury palpable. We huddled together, our bodies trembling with fear, as we watched in horror as a hand punched through the door and unlocked it from the other side.
"There we go," our father said in an almost whisper, his voice dripping with malice and contempt. He slowly pushed the door open, and we clung onto each other for dear life, tears streaming down our faces.
"Karl, you get over here!" our father barked, his eyes blazing with anger. "I don't care about her, you get your ass over here!" I knew that I had to act fast to protect my sister, so I quickly put Rachel down and reassured her that everything would be okay.
With a heavy heart, I stepped forward to face our father, bracing myself for whatever was to come. Even though I was scared and trembling, I knew that I had to keep my wits about me and stay strong for Rachel. As our father loomed over us, I stood my ground, determined to protect my sister and do whatever it takes to keep her safe.
I go over to my dad and he throws me to the ground. "You don't make a sound!" Dad yells as he drags me to the living room. I whimper in fear and he kicks me in the side. I grip my side and the throws me to the middle of the living room. He picks me up and ties me to the single chair. He probably planned this.
I see him then take Rachel out of the bathroom. "LET HER GO" I scream. He ties her up on the chair across from me then walks up to me. "I told you." He gets way too close for comfort "NO SPEAKING" He punches me right on the opposite eye that already had a black eye from Techno. Dads girlfriend was just sitting on the couch drinking beer and smiling while watching this. I feel another punch to my stomach.
Dad got his girlfriend and they both left, leaving Rachel and I tied up in the living room. I managed to get my hands out and looked at my phone to see if I could call anyone for help. The only person I thought of I just met today. Sapnap but he was my only hope, so I called him and he picked up pretty quickly.
(Sapnap is bold and Karl is normal)"Hey Karl!"
"Hey Sapnap"
"Woah dude you sound terrible, are you okay?"
"Um, no actually and I kinda need your help"
"Of course dude where are you?"
" *Gives address* but uh yea me and my little sister are kinda tied up. The door should be unlocked. I really hope dad didn't lock it..."
"Okay I'm on my way"
"Thanks so much dude I don't know what I could do to repay you, bye, see you soon."
"No problem, I'll see you soon, bye.
After the call ended I sighed in relief. "Sapnap is gonna come help us" I tell Rachel. "He must be a hell of a friend to get involved in this shit." Rachel answers. "Hey, language." I say jokingly. "Yea, like you don't swear all the time!" Rachel replies.
Some time goes by and we hear a car pull up to the house, and we hear the door open. "Oh my god, are you guys alright?" Sapnap says surprised. "Yea we will be." Sapnap grabs his pocket knife and cuts the ropes on Rachel first. "Thank you so much." Rachel thanks him as she gives Sapnap a hug. "Oh this is no problem. Always happy to help, especially if it's this serious." Sapnap says as he hugs Rachel back. Sapnap then walks over to me and cuts the ropes around me. I hug him tightly when he finishes. "Thank you so much, what could I ever do to repay you?" I say while still hugging him. "You don't have to do anything, I just have one question that you do not have to answer, what happened?" I sit down and he sits next to me, Rachel sitting next to Sapnap. I explain everything, and he just hugs me and Rachel. "I'm so sorry you guys had to go through that, if that asshole comes back just give me a call, okay?" I nod and I offer for him to stay over to hang out.
For the rest of the day we had so much fun, forgetting the events of the day. We did so much, we watched movies, we played video games, Sapnap and I even tried to cook dinner, which we failed miserably at. It then started to get late and Sapnap headed out. We said our goodbyes and we all hugged.
Today was so fun, minus the whole getting beat up by dad part. I think me and Sapnap will be good friends and last a long time. I really hope.
