Colby's POV:

I was dragging my feet along the pavement of the sidewalk. I had finally escaped the hellhole I called school. Ever since I came out to my parents, my life has become a living hell. I was secretly getting beat up by my dad and I'm constantly getting horribly bullied at school by Chad and his jock friends. I'm also forced to do their homework. If I don't I'll get horribly beaten up. Last time, I forgot to do John's homework, Chad and his friends beat me up so bad I was barely able to walk the whole day. Even though I do their work, I still get bullied and harassed due to the fact that I cross-dress. I don't wear anything bright. I only wear emo aesthetic clothing.

As I continue my dreadful walk home, I suddenly heard a whimper. I then looked up and saw a small muddy puppy that appeared to be limping. I then felt bad for the pup so I walked up to it. "Hi there little guy, I'm Cole though my friend calls me Colby," I introduced myself as I gently pet the pup's muddy fur. "Are you lost?" I asked. I only got a whimper in response. I knew I would get in trouble if I brought the pup home but I can't just leave the poor thing on its own.

I then picked up the poor helpless pup and brought him home. "Don't worry little guy, I'll take care of you until you learn to fend for yourself," I assured it as I walked home. As soon as I got home, I then quietly walked in and looked around until I saw my dad sleeping on the couch. I then took that opportunity and quietly and quickly went up to my room. I then entered the bathroom that was connected to my room and gave the pup a bath. Once the pup was clean and dry, I realized that the pup was a boy and that he was a blonde wolf pup.

"Now to come up with a name," I said out loud. I then looked at the pup and immediately the name Sam popped up. "I know, I'll call you Sam." Sam instantly wagged his tail in pure happiness. "I see you like your name," I chuckled. "Cole!" my eyes widened as I heard my dad calling me. "C-Coming!" I shouted. I then grabbed Sam and left the bathroom. I then put Sam on the floor in my room. "Stay here and be quiet. I'll be back ok," I said as I left.

Once I got downstairs, my dad then grabbed a fistful of my hair and tossed me to the floor. I then fearfully looked up at him as he grinned at me. "Did you make dinner yet?" my dad asked. "N-No not yet," I responded. "Well, what are you waiting for? Go make me something to eat or else!" my dad snapped at me. I then quickly made my way to the kitchen and quickly made dinner. I made chicken and rice. I then took a piece of chicken and wrapped it on a napkin and slipped it in my cropped hoodie pocket. I then slipped in a water bottle for myself as well. I then got a small bowl and filled it with water and went back up to my room.

Once I got to my room, I then closed my door. I then placed the water bowl along with the chicken next to Sam. Sam immediately got to eating. I, however, wasn't allowed to eat. I only eat when my mom's home. I sadly sigh as I gulp down my water just to quench my hunger. I then looked down as I felt Sam nudging me. Sam slid some of his chicken my way. My eyes began to gloss as I saw how thoughtful Sam was. "No little buddy, you take it. I'm ok and besides you need it more than I do," I told him with a sad smile on my face. Suddenly I heard footsteps coming up my way.

I then put Sam underneath my bed along with his water bowl. "Stay still ok," I told him. Suddenly my door opened and my eyes widened as I saw my dad with an angry look on his face. "What did I tell you about eating?!" At first, I was confused but then I looked down and saw Sam's leftover chicken next to me. "I-I'm sorry, I-I didn't mean-" I was then cut off by my dad backhandily smacking me across the face. "You never mean anything do you, you stupid bitch!" my dad snapped at me. My eyes began to gloss as I looked at him.

"Well, I'm going to show you what happens when you disobey me." My dad left the room and I slightly began to panic as I thought about what he was going to do to me. My eyes widened as I saw my dad with a metal pole. "D-Dad Please, I'm Sorry!" I begged. My dad ignored me and began hitting me with the pole. All I could do was cover my head and face the best I could as I begged for him to stop. Once he was done, my dad glared at me. "Next time you disobey me it'll be worse! Understood?" my dad threatened. I then shakily nodded my head. Once my dad left, I then painfully got up and closed my door. I then got Sam out from under my bed and I gave him his leftover chicken. Sam denied it so I assumed that he was full so I threw it away. I then put Sam on my bed as I curled myself up in a ball and silently sobbed.
