Dark cacao had to attend another parental meeting, after what his father did to him yesterday, he didn't want to leave the safety of his room, but alas, it'd be rude not to show, so he was forced to put on his armor and leave, he made it to the vanilla kingdom, and he walked to where they'd usually speak, they all sat down, and they all spoke about random things, dark cacao didn't speak at all, even if he couldn't see him, he could tell dark caramel was looking at him with a searing gaze, those hazel eyes would haunt him for days on end, dark cacao grabbed a large rose out of the vase and began stroking it's petals and tracing along the outline of it with his finger to keep him focused on something else, he focused on the ticking of the clock

Tick....

       Tock....

                  Tick....

                            Tock....

He awaited the chime of it, stroking and tracing the rose, gripping the stem tighter with every tick, with every tock, but no matter what he did, the memory replayed in his head, over, and over, and over, and over, again, his own screams, his father raping him, it made him feel horrible and dirty, especially for keeping it a secret, his hand gripping the rose stem eventually began bleeding from the thorns still in the stem, pure vanilla turned to him, and saw his hand bleeding, he looked at him "dark cacao, are you ok? you're gripping the rose too tightly" dark cacao, feeling his father's hazel gaze on him, responded with "yes, i didn't notice, my hand has been a bit numb, I'm a little sick, that's all" pure vanilla turned back to his mother, worried for dark cacao, he could feel his father's gaze, truth be told, he desperately wanted to run, but he couldn't, he was forced to sit there right next to the man that violated him, he felt sick to his stomach, he felt, guilty, dark cacao was forced to hold back his fresh tears behind his face, he looked at the clock

Still ticking....

                 Still tocking....

The clock made a sudden chime, startling the king, they all stood up, and prepared to leave, pure vanilla thought dark caramel and dark cacao just need more time together, and insisted on the elderly staying, he complied, and dark cacao was mortified, he wanted to hide in a safe spot until 1 extra hour visit was over, he was going to go to hide in the meeting area, but his father was already there, he didn't feel safe, he was dumbfounded by how a single man could taint an entire room with his mere 3 hours of presence, so he hid in pure vanillas royal garden, he hid in the garden, he played the petals on the flowers, it calmed him, he liked being there, he didn't feel endangered, then he heard rustling and loud footsteps on the other side of the garden "hello? pure vanilla?" he stood up, trying to find out who was there, but when he got closer, the footsteps got heavier "no....it can't be....not here....NOT NOW!" he bolted, trying to get to the door before this cookie could reach him, when he bumped into that cookie, he backed up in fear, he looked up, and he realized his nightmare was reality, his father was standing right infront of him, he leaned down "you want them to think somethings wrong, don't you" dark cacao backed up in fear as his father wrapped his rough and course hand around his neck, lightly choking him "N-NO! I....don't....." his father pulled him upwards "against the pillar, NOW" dark cacao shakily wrapped his arms around it, and leaned on it, he was too tired to fight back now, dark caramel leaned towards him, but before he could violate him again, pure vanilla walked in with hollyberry "....you ok? lucky to fall right next to the pillar" dark caramel pretended as if he was helping him up, dark cacao nodded "dark cacao, what caused you to fall? maybe i can help with it" pure vanilla wanted to help, but dark cacao declined "I'm just a bit light headed is all" dark cacao let go of the pillar, and walked off, they exited the flower garden "I'm lucky he walked in...." dark cacao whispered to himself, they walked to the dining area, and sat down for lunch, he couldn't believe it, he didn't even feel safe in a royal garden anymore, and only the witches know how dark caramel would've violated him if pure vanilla didn't walk in, pure vanilla brought lunch out, and they began to eat, dark cacao looked at his plate the entire time, clinking his fork against it to keep him focused on anything that wasn't his father, he once again listened for the chime of the clock

Tick....
      
           Tock....

                        Tick....
 
                                    Tock....

he waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, he just wanted to leave, go to the only safe spot that his father was yet to taint, his bedroom, after everyone ate, the clock chimed, and it was time to leave, everyone packed up, and pure vanilla walked over to dark cacao, worried that he wasn't leaving "dark cacao...are you ok? do you need help?" dark cacao declined "no, no, I'm alright, I might be sick, but not that sick...." he stood up, and traveled home

At the cacao castle

He laid down, hugging the pillow for comfort, he tried to forget, but the memory played in his head again, and again, his own screeches, his father's smile, he couldn't get it out of his head tears flowed down his face as he cried to himself, praying to the witches, that his father would slip up, and he'd get caught, he looked at his calendar, he has another parental meeting tomorrow, caramel arrow and affogato looked at him from the door, caramel arrow felt horrible, he looked so sad, she didn't even know what was happening, but she felt so bad, and she wasn't even the one suffering, affogato felt bad too, usually, seeing him sad would make affogato smile, but this, this just wasn't funny, they both agreed to find out what's going on, and how they can stop this
