Alois's POV: In the middle of the night, Ciel woke up shrieking in terror. I gently pressed my face against his, repeating over and over again that he was okay. He was so scared he couldn't even speak. He cried, and I held him. "Why? Why did he do this to me?"he whispered. I rubbed his back, saying "There are just evil people in this world, honey." . He held on to me like I was the only thing keeping him on the ground. I continued to rub his back, attempting to console him, when my fingers skimmed his neck. Bitemarks. "Ciel, can you please lift your shirt? I wanna see what he did to you."I asked, boiling inside. He gave me a shaky nod, and lifted the slightly baggy white shirt. Teethmarks covered every square inch of his skin, along with big, black bruises. I ran my finger over one, and he flinched. I gently pulled down his shirt. I wrapped my arms around him and nuzzled his neck. "Do you wanna go see Dad tomorrow? He could help." I asked. He nodded. I lied him down on the bed next to me, and I sank down next to him. I held him close to me for the rest of the night.
Ciel's POV: When I woke up, I changed into the most comfortable clothes I could find. Because of the incident, every muscle in my body ached. Alois and I walked to his house, where Arty was waiting for us. He hurried us in, and onto the couch. "Ciel, Alois has told me that something has happened to you. Care to explain?"he said, his therapist mode kicking in. I repeated my story. He looked very shocked, but quickly tried to conceal it. "I..see. Alois didn't tell me about most of this. So, have you told anybody except for me and Alois?"he asked. I shook my head. I rubbed my wrists, which still had red impression marks on them. Alois put his arm around me, and I laid my head on his chest. "Alois," Arty asked. "Did you happen to see the physical damage done to Ciel?" Alois nodded. "He had teethmarks and bruises all over his body. It looked very painful."he said. "It was."I said, blinking back tears. I buried my head in Alois's chest as silent tears rolled down my cheeks. "I remember the things that he said to me, like 'You're more beautiful when you cry.' and 'Maybe I'll keep you home a couple more days.'. I couldn't do anything to stop him, and everyday it got worse." I said. Arty was writing what I'd said, and Alois was cuddling and hugging me. This continued until Arty prescribed antidepressants, and sleeping pills. Alois went with me to pick up my medicine. He walked home with me, and helped me open my pills. I took two antidepressants. We went to my room, and we just listened to music. We both discovered were into a lot of the same people, like MCR, and Avril Lavine. Before I knew it, it was nine. I went to my bathroom, and got out my sleeping pills. I poured out the contents of the bottle into my hand. I went pale. The pill was so big. "Um, how many of these do I have to take?"I asked. He read the lable. "Only one."he said. "Thank God!"I exclaimed, quickly taking the pill. After about fifteen minutes, they started to take effect. I yawned.
Alois's POV: I smiled as Ciel let out a small yawn. I tucked him under the covers, and kissed his forehead. Just as I started to leave, he grabbed my hand. "Please...stay."he said, starting to fall asleep. I nodded, sliding into bed with him. In no time, he was asleep. While watching him sleep, I wondered how he would adjust to taking pills everyday. I fell asleep soon after.
