The Earth's Spark ( Megatron X Male!Reader )

Chapter 1- Stargazing

It was a hot summer afternoon in the town of Jasper in the state of Nevada, where the mesa environment felt the most dried it has ever been in recent years, however the nights provided a gentle breeze to cool it off. The town wasn't big compared to the big cities like New York or Miami, yet it was a decent size with the ammount of houses, shops and even hospitals. In that town lived a young boy who was about to be eighteen years old named Y/N, with dark brown hair, brown almost golden eyes with a pair of glasses and a slightly fair skin. He had recently finished high school and was currently making his way home after making some groceries in the local supermarket, refilling the stock at home.

However as he made his walk towards the house, he clenched the bags tighter, already dreading what was about to happen once he reached his home. He felt a drop of sweat fall on his left cheek where he had a small cut from yesterday, though it was very superficial thus not being of need, though it stung when the sweat hit the cut. Y/N flinched at that but forced himself to reach his home, even when every single part of him told him to not go. The walk home was hard like every single day, which Y/N was used to at this point considering the ammount of times he had to perform this routine for years.

The moment he reached his home, he could already feel the pain of his injuries resurfacing, something he tried to ignore the entire day. He felt his hands slowly give out and threatening to let go of the bags and break a few of it's contents. He rushed to the door and then gently let the bags onto the floor, reaching for his pocket to get the keys to open the door. The sharp click sound from the door gave a sense of relief to Y/N as the door opened, though that was short-lived when the horrible smell of alchool and ciggar suddenly hit his nostrils, making Y/N flinch at that.

The house wasn't big and was only a ground floor house, the living room and the kitchen where merged into one along with the entrance, making it a cozy area, there was a door to the garage and a hallway that lead to the bedrooms, the hallway makes a curve that has the bedrroms along with a dorr to the backyard, which was very comfortable to be in during the spring.

Making his way over to the kitchen Y/N saw his paternal guardian lounchin on the sofa with garbage everywhere, he has black hair with some grey's, a grey bread and green eyes along with a tanned skin. He was mostly naked with only his underwear and socks, likely due to how hot it was. He was looking at the television watching a game of football, puffing his ciggar and chugging his canned beer.

"Finally, there you are you little shit." His 'father', said looking already drunk by the looks of it. Y/N didn't say a word and merely took a can of beer from the bags and put infront of him, hoping that it would distract him.

"Took you long enough." His 'father' said grabbing a new can and chuging it like he had never drank before. Y/N merely went to the kitchen and put everything in their place, feeling a form of accomplisment as he did so, though this soon faded with the fact he had to at least clean the garbage mess in the living room. Y/N groaned internally as he opened one of the kitchen doors to get the broom and a plastic bag. He ripped a bag out from the others with a lot of force, being a way to released his pent up anger in a passive way. He then started cleaning the mess until he had to get infront of the TV, which Y/N braced himself for what was about to happen. He took as deep breath and immediatelly went infront of the TV and cleaned the table as fast as he could, earning a strong punch on the cheek from his 'father' which ended up destroying his glasses.

"You mother fucker!" He said to Y/N getting up and grabbing the boy's wrist. Y/N didn't react only waiting for the strike to be swiftly, he knew he was abusive and that this wasn't right, but he had to endure, at least for now. Just like he predicted his paternal guardian threw him agaisnt the wall and proceeded to kick him in the stomach, making Y/N yielp and groan in pain.
