Family. (DNF angst)

Chapter 23: Feel it.

TW: disturbing descriptions of abuse.

♡Clay pov♡

Tony was innocent. That's what the judge said. We were all in shock. Before I could stop him, George had left the courtroom.

Tony is a free man. I need to find George.

I stood up, handing Rose off to Karl. I quickly left the courtroom. I wandered around the courthouse, finding no sign of George.

Fuck. Fuck.

I quickly went outside and saw them. They were talking, but Tony seemed calm. George had his arms crossed, and he seemed anxious. I started walking over. Tony noticed and grabbed George's arm, pulling him behind him. I felt anger boil in my stomach.

"Get the fuck away from him." I spat angrily.

Tony and I stared at each other, hatred present in both of our eyes. I looked behind him at George. He still had his arms crossed, and he was looking down at the ground.

"George." I stated.

He didn't look at me. Tony smiled.

"Tell him." Tony demanded.

George swallowed hard.

"I'm going with Tony." George said quietly.

What?

Tony smiled. I shoved him. He seemed taken aback.

"You fucking asshole! What did you say to him!?" I yelled.

George flinched at my yelling.

"He wants to go with me. He loves me, don't you, George?" Tony asked.

George was still looking down as he nodded. Tony grabbed his arm and started taking him towards a car.

"Keep Rose safe. Please." George said, finally looking at me.

His eyes looked emotionless. Maybe sad.

I grabbed Tony's shoulder, and he turned around and punched me. I stumbled, holding a hand to my nose. When I recovered from the hit, the car Tony was taking George to was speeding off down the street. My nose was bleeding heavily all over my face and down the front of my shirt. I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned to see Sapnap and Karl. Karl was carrying Rose.

"Holy shit. What the fuck happened?" Sap asked worriedly.

"George went with Tony. He didn't want to. I think Tony threatened him or something." I told them.

"Fuck." Karl cursed.

♡George pov♡

I need Clay. I don't want to be with Tony.

He was driving well above the speed limit. I didn't dare ask where we were going.

"You know, George. This whole thing was really fucking annoying. Why did you even do it? You know you'll never escape. Accept it." He said angrily.

His hands were gripping the steering wheel, and he was clearly very pissed.

"If I didn't know any better I'd fucking kill you. I need you around, though. Nobody will put up with me as well as you do." He told me.

I know.

"Thank god you didn't bring that fucking brat. She ruins everything. I should've killed her." He mumbled.

"Don't talk about her like that!" I snapped.

He slammed on the brakes and pulled over into an alley. He parked the car and got out, slamming the door behind him. My heart began to race. He opened my car door.
