Mute (ImmortalFox)

Chapter 19

*Flashback*

"Mommy watch!" You cried out to her as you slid down the slide, your arms high in the air.

"Good job Aleks!" she cooed, picking you up at the bottom. "You're such a big boy!"

You could see your dad sitting on the park bench on the other side of the play structure. You scrambled out of your moms arms and ran to him, embracing him in a large hug.

"I'm so proud of you Aleks," your dad praised you.

"Aleks how old are you?" your mom asked you. You had learned how to hold three fingers up that day. You struggled, but managed to hold them up to her. You giggled once you got it.

"That's my Aleks. Only mine. I love you," Your mom smiled, kissing your temple.

"Dad?" you asked timidly. "Is mommy coming back?"

There was a weird smell in the air. This never happened when mommy was around.

"Shut up Aleks. She's not coming back. SHE IS NEVER COMING BACK! SHE'S DEAD! GONE FOREVER! SO SHUT THE FUCK UP!"

The weird smell increased when your dad would talk. It smelled bad.

"Daddy? Where did mommy go?" You asked timidly.

"SHE DIED ALEKS! IN A CAR CRASH GOING TO PICK UP YOU. IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT! JUST NEVER SPEAK AGAIN!" he yelled at you.

You didn't talk after that.

[7 years later]

Dad was drinking again. He's so stupid. He knows mom isn't coming back. I don't know why. He probably does.

"Aleks!" he called to you groggily from downstairs. You were in your room lying in your bed.

He didn't need you. Fuck him. You didn't move from your spot on the bed.

"ALEKS!" you heard a louder call from downstairs.

You still weren't moving. The ceiling became the most interesting thing in your life.

You heard heavy footsteps make their way up the stairs. You door burst open. You didn't have a lock.

"Why the fuck don't you come when I call you boy?" He spat. He swayed in his stance. He almost tripped over his own feet, but caught himself on the doorframe and chipped the edge of the beer bottle in his hand.

You didn't answer. He didn't deserve an answer from you.

"Aleks. Talk to me!" he swung the bottle at your face, leaving a long cut from the sharp edge of the bottle.

You held your face and lay back on the bed. Blood was probably staining the sheets, and your tears were stinging the wound

You dad laughed. "That's what you get you little fucker,"

*Flashback end*



"He'd beat me. Everyday," you explained to Seamus through tears. "Blaming me for all his shit. And I'd fucking believe him,"

Seamus just sat and stared. "Does anyone else know this?" he asked.

"N-no," You wiped your eyes on the back of your sleeve. "Besides you and my uncle, no,"

He sounded surprised. "Not even Eddie?"

You shook your head. "No. I never told him the whole story."

You had always wanted to, but only in person, by actual talking. You couldn't do that this weekend. You were too busy being happy.

There was a long pause in your conversation. It wasn't awkward, just needed.

"Aleks," Seamus sighed. "I'm sorry for everything you've gone through, and I hope that I can help you feel better,"

"Thanks Seamus. I really appreciate it," You thanked him before saying your goodbyes and shutting down.

That felt really good. Really really good.

You could only imagine telling all that shit to Eddie.

Hey hey hey!

I hope you thought this chapter wasn't too shitty/confusing. If it was shitty, your problem. If it was confusing, be sure to let me know and I'll add more of Aleks' backstory in later. I mean, he still has to tell Eddie and everything...


But yes! I'm still doing okay with this story :) New chapter Tuesday? Hopefully maybe probably? xD

Thanks again for all the reads votes and everything!



WAIT. ONE MORE THING.

So personally, I don't just read Gamer/YouTuber stuff. I also read Johnlock (Shoutout to my fellow Sherlockians)

AND DON'T SKIP THIS UPDAT PART THING EVEN IF YOU DON'T GET IT.

One of the stories I read. Idk the name and I'm too lazy to look it up.. [EDIT]: It's @Forensic_Artist so if you like Teen!lock, go read their story :)

But one of the chapters, the author asked for random prompts/storylines that couldn't actually affect the plot and put it all into one big shitfest of a chapter.

I just found that whole concept really cool. And maybe I could try it?

If anyone has anything they want to happen
Eg. Some immediate NovaHD. Ghosts of Aleks' parents. Meeting Dan, Jordan and Ze irl. ImmortalFox smut. Even Aleks finding out that he has superpowers. Or if you want any other YouTuber/person to make a cameo :) no OC's though....

As long as there's no big plot twisters.
Eg. Aleks and Sly breaking up forever, spontaneous zombie apocalypse, Aleks' uncle going insane and becoming a serial killer, Aleks going and shouting at everyone... xD if anyone really wants one of these. I'll probably just end it with, "And then you woke up,"

This all doesn't have to be in second person too. It'll probably be in third person.


I hope this will be a fun 10k reads thing when that rolls around. AND THAT IS SO INSANE! I want to give you guys something funny and special for that cause you all really deserve it. :)

If you have any ideas for this wacky chapter comment, Inbox me, post on my board, or kik me (Mapsie)

Keep in mind this chapter probably won't be done for at least another week. Deadlines for ideas, I'll say Wednesday :)


Get as creative as you want :D


Thanks guys again for the reads and votes and everything!

Love you all! <3
