Ch. 19

[Phil POV]

Eyes burning and bloodshot, I grip onto my green and blue pillow, now wet and salty from hours of crying. I wasn't only crying because Dan was taken, but because I was useless in this situation. I let my dad take him away, despite knowing what kind of organization he works for.

I stare at the white wall on the opposite side of the room, bits of blood spotting the paint. I glance down at my red swollen fists, knuckles still bleeding slightly. I should be a bit worried about this as it's been nearly five hours since it started bleeding, but I am far from giving a fuck about anything.

The only thing concerning me is why all the traumatic events this week have happened to Dan.

[Dan POV]

Bright light smacks me as my eyes flutter open. After adjusting to the light, I notice three tall figures around me, two around the same age, the other looking my age.

After some seconds I recognize each of them.

My dad.

Pj.

And the man who was at Phil's door.

Phil. Where is he? Is he okay? What even happened?

"Hello, Daniel." A deep voice booms. I make eye contact with my father, who is staring down at me evilly.

"Where am I and what the hell do you three twats want from me?" I look over to Pj who appears to be internally face palming. The other two just look extremely pissed off.

"Dan, you done goofed." I hear Pj whisper before a piercing pain tears down my left forearm. A metallic smell fills the room as I feel a liquid ooze down my arm. I bite my lip awfully too hard, causing more pain upon myself, but I'm beyond caring at this point. The pain becomes too much as I fall out of conciousness.

[Pj POV]

As Dan passes out, the two older men smirk and glide out of the room. When they are definitely gone, I kneel over Dan, resisting the urge to cry. I have been a complete asshole to him for many years, but I never wanted to. I was forced into it.

Dan is the sweetest and, once upon a time, happiest person alive. He makes everyone happy without even trying. He was often made fun of for how kind he was to everyone, which killed his vibe a bit, breaking him. Dan tried not letting it show, but it was clearer than filtered drinking water.

I was quite close with him at the time, so I asked him if something was bothering him, in which he tried to say no. I noticed his bottom lip quivering, a clear liquid lining his lower eyelids. A tear escaped Dan's eye as he sniffles. I quickly stood up, taking him in my arms as he cried.

A few days later, mum got me a job, which I wasn't the happiest about. Even more so when I found out what the job was. She forced me into an organization which was completely against what I believe, which caused me to hurt Dan when I didn't want to. Both physically and emotionally.

I've had to do this for years unwillingly to many people, not just Dan. This has caused me the label of being a bully. I've always had someone from the organization around me, along with hidden cameras all around the town.

I take Dan's arm, wrapping it in a bandage until the bleeding stops.

"I'm sorry I've been doing this for so many years, I don't want to. I'm forced to against my will. I'm sorry it's always you..."
