SORIN
I limped towards the basement stairs. Blood rushed down my back made me feel so sick... My hands reached out to the railings on the stairs, pulling myself up with every strength I had, my hand touching the wood. I groaned, moaned and grunted in pain until I made it to the basement door.
I clutched on my stomach opening the door widely while it makes a creak. The four of them must've went to bed since the lights were off. The sound of the rain surrounds my ears, hoping there wouldn't be any thunder.
I limped through the large flight of stairs that you could hardly see using my weak and numb body. I held on one of the rails for support, walking up the stairs. Every move I made was painful. I hissed from time to time from every stinging sensation I felt.
I eventually made up to the second floor, continuing to limp to my room. Down the dark hallway, was a dim light, quiet chatters were heard from Ares' room. I moved towards the room slowly and quietly. I placed my ear on the door, their muffled voices now quite clearer.
"Are you sure that was a good idea, Ares..? I think Derek did a number on him..." I heard Damien's voice talk to Ares, who scoffed. "Of course it was. He deserved the beatings. You know better than that. He's just a little piece of shit who'll stay in his house forever and not anywhere else. Why have you gone soft on that fag?"
Damien scoffed before saying, "Shut the fuck up, fucking Ares. I'm just worried about what will happen if people start to notice. We do have an image to obtain even outside the organization, people will somehow tend to get suspicious of us when they see the marks all over Sorin's body."
"Outside the organization..?" I thought to myself.
Ares chuckled. "You think I don't know that, Damien? I'm not stupid. But the answer to your question is quite simple. Nobody would care, obviously. You said it yourself, he doesn't have friends and the teachers probably doesn't give a shit or two about that faggot. They would never believe him. I mean, look at us. We do have a good reputation. They wouldn't listen the words he'll say. Because in reality, nobody gives a shit or two about Sorin, even his own blood."
"Maybe if he did the right then and just, end himself, then maybe, just for once we'd be happy."
My eyes widened and my heart broke to pieces even more. Was I really that much of a burden..? Was I that much of a burden to their happiness..? No, that's not right... All I ever wanted was for them to love me... all I ever wanted was to make them happy for once, see them smile... Maybe, if I did end myself, would I have done the right thing and make them smile once again...?
"Yes Sorin, that's right. You want to give them happiness don't you..? You want them to give you love, right..?"
"I do but, I wanna stay here with them forever..."
