HENRY BOWERS

Im gonna tell Patrick about the abuse. He doesn't know yet. I just tell him that I got into a fight, he always believes it. It's stupid.

We were currently in his room, his mom was a sweetheart to me. I liked his family, his house felt like a second home to me.

He looks at me, then my arms. “ another fight Bowers? Your like the main man people fight now, hm? ” he says. I tense up a little. “ uhm, yeah. I guess you could say that.”

“ what do you mean.” he mumbled a little. I hear it clearly though. “ there's something I haven't told you. Only told Victor and belch.” he nods at me.

“ ..okay. so,,” I explain everything and he just stares at me before grabbing my switchblade. “ were gonna kill him bowers.” I look at him like he's crazy. He really is. I can't kill my dad.

I get home soon and my dad's standing there with a belt in his hand. I was late.

(Not doing the abuse scene.)

I run up to my room and grab a first aid kit. I go into the bathroom and treat my wounds. I should be fine. It burns a lot. I decided to go to Patrick's.

PATRICK HOCKSTETTER

Me and Henry hung out the entire night. It was fun, though we ended up getting drunk and we didn't remember anything. He has hickies all over his neck. But he had those when he came here, right? We didn't do anything.

We couldn't have. He wouldn't ever allow me to do anything. Not even hug him anymore unless he needs it. Or asks me to.

He was in my bed asleep, while my mom made food. I never ate her food. She only cooked when Henry was over because Henry didn't have barely any food at home.

I love him. He doesn't love me though. Which fucking sucks. I mean, who wouldn't love me? I'm practically a god.

He soon wakes up and goes downstairs to get food. He ate and showered here, and walked into my room soon enough.

We watched a movie and he fell asleep on my shoulder. I kiss his forehead and lay him down, going outside and into the junkyard. I open my fridge. Everything is still there. The bunnies, the cats, the birds. Everything.

The police never found out what I did. I'm glad. Even if I got found out they wouldn't arrest me. They can't. I'm the only real person. They're just figments of my mind.

I love you so much it hurts. ^^ HENPAT. ( tw!! slight smut )Where stories live. Discover now
