Save me

Friend?

  Well the last chapter was sad. I'm sorry for the ending in the last chapter, I know it was sad. Well get ready for more of abuse soon. I'm going to shut up and let you guys read already.

  Rin woke up early then usual as it was still dark out. Rin looked at the clock and saw that the time was 6:00 am. 'Well I woke up early...'  Rin thought as he got up and went to the bathroom to take a quick shower. After taking a quick shower, the half-demon dressed in his spared uniform as his other one got teared from the beating last night.

  He grabbed his black schoolbag and went downstairs to see his dad sleeping on the worn out brown couch with his arm stretched over the side with a sake bottle in his hand. Rin looked at the bottle while his eyes widen as he realized the harsh truth. 

 His father woke up and saw the black-blue haired teen with anger still in his eyes. He got up from the couch, as the man stood up he walked to his son. Rin trembled as his arm was grabbed harshly and he was dragged into the kitchen. 

 He turned the stove on while turning the dial to high, as it heated up he placed Rin's right pale hand on the burner. Rin scream as he tried to jerk his hand away from the heated burner. His father noticed this and pressed his hand on the burner harder.

 After five minutes he let Rin go as he reached to the dial to turn the stove off. Rin's knees dropped to the floor as he held him brunt hand. "That's what you get for lying to me, you little bitch." his father scold at him. Rin looked at him before getting up and grabbing his stuff.  He left his father and brother (who was sleeping) in the place where Okumura Rin calls hell as he walked to school.

Yukio was walking down the street with his friends when they saw Rin once again running past them holding his right hand. Shiemi became concerned about him as she started to run after him. She heard Yukio yell but she didn't listen as she kept following the half-demon.

Rin was in the courtyard hiding behind a cherry tree stroking his injured tail he let out and looking at his burnt hand. He heard footsteps and panting behind him as the voice started to talk to him.

"Oh no! We need to get you to the school infirmary so we can treat that burn." the sweet voice panicked as a gentle hand slowly touched Rin's burnt hand, Rin flinched as he slowly stood up and looked at the person in front of him. The female with short blond hair stepped back with worry in her soft green eyes, she shyly hid behind the tree as she started to apologize. Rin stared at her blankly and started to talk to her. 

"Um...Do you know where the infirmary is? I never be there so I need your help." Rin asked the shy girl. The girl nodded as she slowly walked out away the tree and told him to follow her as well as to hide his tail.

 Once they got to the infirmary and opened the door the girl asked the adult "Mom, Do we have so ointment for burns?" The woman looked at her daughter with confusion. She walked to Rin and looked at his hand, she sighed as glanced at him then back at his hand. She turned to her daughter as she replied "Yes I do. I'll go get it." the woman went to the brown drawer to get the ointment.

She walked back to Rin while opening the cap and put her fingers inside the bottle to get the white cream. She got her fingers out as she slowly spread the cream around his hand. Rin flinched but kept his cool as his wound was being treated.

The nurse then bandage his hand afterwards as she asked him questions about how he got the burn. Rin lied to her which he felt bad for but his eyes went to Shiemi.

"Thank you." Rin told Shiemi, she smiled and replied "You're welcome... Oh my name is Moriyama Shiemi, what's yours?"

Rin answered "My name is Okumura Rin, just call me Rin." Shiemi nodded and asked him "Um Rin... do you have any friends?" Rin looked at the girl with sad smile before replying back "No, I don't."

Shiemi felt sorry for the boy then an idea popped into her head. "Do you want to have lunch with me and my other friends?" she asked. Rin looked at her with confusion but nodded in agreement. "Yeah sure, I need to thank your friends properly for yesterday." Rin told the girl as he scratched his head awkwardly.

Shiemi smiled and told him that they needed to go to class. Shiemi's mother wrote them a pass and they walked out of the infirmary. Shiemi then told Rin something that he hadn't heard before "We're now friends." Shiemi walked to her class leaving a puzzled Rin behind.
