Take the monsters away | Phan (Completed)

--1--

~Dan's POV~ 

   "What are you doing you pathetic fuck" That's all I hear now if he wasn't yelling at me about my mother's death. She was the only person that I actually love and she loved me back, how I don't know. I'm just a useless bitch who doesn't deserve the light of day. 

"I-I'm getting ready f-for s-school" Why do you have to be so pathetic Dan, he can probably see no he can certainly see the fear in your voice. 

"Don't talk back to me" that's where it began. He slowly made his way toward me, anger rushing through him. Once he made it close enough a harsh smack flew across my face making me topple backwards. Only a few moments later I got a blow to the stomach regain, and a couple of harsh punches to my arms and legs and even one to my neck. On the verge of passing out I hear a chuckle and a pull to my uniform. 

Go to school I don't want to see your to see your face anymore All I can do is nod, grab my busted up backpack and rush out of that damn flat. Great the first day of year 13, just another excuse to be beaten and abused, i'm not letting my secret let out again, that would just be the end of me. 

~Phil's POV~ 

   Oh great, the first fucking day of year 13. Why can't I just not go, I could avoid all the constant beatings and threats, all the words that are now carved in my pale skin, 'gay, faggot, useless, unloved' But I can't, thanks to my stupid mother, I would be better off on my own, heck I basically live alone now. 

6:45

Great the bus will be here in 15 minutes, actually I think i'll walk today, I don't live that far from the school, only a couple blocks. Yep we will go with that plan. And with that being said I grabbed my backpack and ran out the door, literally (I know this is serious but who else read that in Dan's voice I know i'm not the only one) 

~~~ 

Locker 5674, up the stairs to the right. Oh good i'm at the end of the hall, meaning there is only a few kids surrounding me. Before I could finish putting in my combination, I noticed a tall skinny boy standing next to me, putting in his own combination. He had brown fringe like hair, cocoa brown eyes and slightly pale skin yet he still had a little color to him. To be honest he was a little cute, okay I take that back he was really cute. 'Phil are you serious, he could be a monster why wouldn't he be different'

~Dan's POV~ 

   Okay I have locker 5675 

It's upstairs to the right at the very end of the hallway. The I guess counselor told me with a lovely smile, for once it wasn't forced like i'm used to seeing. 

Thank you sir 

Oh you must be new, you can call me Mr. Liguori 

Thank you Mr.Liguori and yes i'm new so if you would could you please tell me where the chemist room is? 

Oh it is up the stairs make a right and then a left in front of the 600 hallway. 

Thank you so much 

Anytime, if you need anything just come ask 

Okay thanks again I wave and start walking up the stairs. I turn the corner and finally found my locker next to the physics room. As I start to put in my combination, I hear the words I fear most but it wasn't toward me this time 

Hey faggot, did Philly miss us? 

I turn my head to see a boy, around my age pushed against the lockers, shaking his head lightly, and tears aimlessly pouring down his face. I wanted to rip off the idiots skulls that were trying to get to 'Philly' im guessing his name is Phil or Phillip. Why was I so mad at them, on a normal day I would have pretended like they didn't exist and walk away but now...

Leave him alone

What was that? One of them said with a huge ass smirk on his face. 

I said leave him alone, now! 

I saw them start to whisper something before dropping the boy and laughing while walking off. Oh god i'm screwed. Without thinking I grab the boy's shaky hand and dragged him to the nearby toilets, pulling us both in. I saw him shake even more so I wrap my arms around him a carefully but softly whisper 

"You're safe don't worry they're gone" he didn't move so I pulled away slightly just enough to properly look at his face. He had pale skin almost deathly, crystal blue eyes that were pure but filled with fear, and raven black hair, he was, well he was absolutely beautiful. 

~Phil's POV (short)~ 

   Even after this boy's touch and soft whispers, I still didn't feel the least bit safe. What if he turns out to be a brutal monster? What if this some prank? What if that's why they let me off so easy? 

No, no, no d-don't h-hurt me p-please 

~Dan's POV~ 

    No,no,no d-don't h-hurt me p-please. Those words stung my heart, considerating A.that's what I tell my father every time he tries to hurt me and B. I get why he can't trust me 

I'm not going to hurt you 

Yes you are! You're just another monster, all you want to do is butter me up and then break me like everyone else! at this point he was completely out of my grasp. 

Dan 

What? 

My name is Dan 

And? 

Well you know my name but I don't know yours 

With a quiet tone he whispered Phil 

Phil that's a beautiful name... oh sheet did I just say that out loud 

Stop it, stop trying to gain my trust 

Alright look Phil, have you actually even seen me at this school he shook his head so I continued so how the hell would I a even know who the fuck those guys are and b know you enough to have a reason to join the monsters 

I heard the bell ring but neither me or Phil moved. Would he trust me?
