Vikk's POV
"The moon is so big!" Lachlan exclaimed, laughing slightly. "Yes Lachy, yes it is" I mumble, giggling at my boyfriend.
We swing our locked hands that had ever so gracefully fallen to our sides. We're in the park walking along the roughly made trail.
The moon and stars were out so it lit up pretty much everything. It was almost a ghost town in the park. It was pretty late, so i didn't expect many kids to be around.
"Stop" I muttered fastly. "Wha-" He tried to ask. "I said stop." I whispered.
I hear footsteps from somewhere in the park, moving closer to where we stood. I look to my left past Lachlan only to see the people i dread most.
Little did Lachlan know, the guys in front of us go to my school, well the one i left because of these boys.
"Do you know them?" Lachlan asked. "Uh yeah. They go to my old school." I mumble. "Why don't we go say hi then?" Lachlan suggests.
"I don't think that'd be needed." I nod quickly. "Don't you wanna say hey to your friends?" He asked. They were so close, it was as if i could feel their hot breath on my neck.
"Oh well well well. Isn't it Vikky Sticky" Kaden, the leader, laughed. Lachlan looked at me, scared and confused. "Uh hi Kaden." I mumble quietly.
"Still not up to talk? Don't wanna have a little chat?" He snickered.
"Who's this boy you've brought along? Double the people, Double the fun. Am i right boys?" He laughed, giving his friends high-fives.
"Who are they really, Vikk?" Lachlan asked. "Oh, Vikky never told you bout us?" Another boy, Tyler, smirked.
I scratched my wrist nervously. I looked at Lachlan with pleading eyes, begging him to run. He shook his head to both me and Tyler.
"Well, we're all great friends. Aren't we Vikk?" Ryker wrapped his arm around me, tightly. I felt sick, but still nodded.
"I'm Ryker. This is Kaden and Tyler." He said, pointing to each person. "Nice meeting you all, but we've gotta go." Lachlan said, trying to escape.
"Why so early? Why not stay for some...Fun?" Kaden smirked, looking at the other two. "Grab him!" Ryker yelled.
Lachlan got held back by Kaden and Tyler as I get pushed to the ground by Ryker. Him and I both knew that i couldn't over power him.
I was much too weak and he was strong. He lets go and moves away. I know what you're thinking, just run away.
No, That would just get me into worse trouble. I follow along with what they want and obey them, It'll hurt less.
A kick gets thrown at me, pushing me down onto my hands and knees.
"Leave him alone!" Lachlan yelled, trying to get away. A few punches, kicks and a split and bleeding lip later, they left me lying on the floor and let Lachlan go.
He ran over to me, scared for his safety and mine. "Oh god. Vikk, Are you okay? Wait don't answer that. Don't talk. I'm calling Simon and Josh." Lachlan rambles.
I lay on my back still as could be as he called them. A little later, The two boys showed up, worried looks on their faces.
"Holy hell, what happened?" Simon asked, picking me up carefully. "Some bully's came from Vikk's old school. They beat him up and made me watch." Lachlan whined.
I only then noticed the almost bruised looking hand marks on his wrists. "We need to take him to the hospital. You too Lach" Josh spewed as we got into the car.
Josh in the front seat with Simon next to him, Leaving Lachlan and I in the back. "He could be seriously hurt!" Simon exclaimed.
"No." I whispered. They turned to me. "Vikk, You could be terribly hurt! We need to take you." Josh continued.
"You know damn well that's not what they'd be treating!" I yelled.
Lachlan stared at me, confused. Josh gave me a sympathetic sad frown, Simon sighing and looking down.
"What do you mean, Vikk?" Lachlan asked. I moved from my comfortable position laying on his lap to sit up.
"I-i" i stuttered. "Let's just head home. I bet you're both tired" Simon said slowly. I looked away from Lachlan knowing how sad and disappointment he must be.
The car ride home was quiet and awkward. Once we got there, i went straight to my room, Lachlan staying behind with Simon and Josh.
I lay wide awake in my bed and stare at my wall, whole body aching. Footsteps ascend up the stairs and my door opens, allowing light to flood in.
"Vikk, You awake?" Lachlan asked. I turned over towards my door, looking at him. He left my door open slightly, coming to sit on my bed.
I sat up with him, everyone still quiet. "Why didn't you tell me?" He asked, taking my hand in his.
"What do you mean?" I ask. "You know what i mean, Vikk. What you freaked out about in the car." He sighed.
"I didn't want you to be disappointment." I looked down. "Vikk, When you feel that way, you're supposed to come to me. You don't lie about it." He says, grazing his fingers over my wrists.
"May I?" He asked, gripping the bottom of my sleeve. I nodded, letting him roll them up.
Dark red lines covered my skin, sided by pink and white ones.
"Vikk.." He trailed off. "I know. It's fucked up." I muttered.
"Baby..How long?" He asked, pulling me into his hold. I let him control me as my body gave up. I placed my head on his shoulder softly, tears slipping down my cheeks.
"Week or two?" I answered. He frowned and sighed. "Relax love. Let's get some rest." He says, laying down and bringing me with him.
"I thought you had to stay in the guest bedroom." I mumble tiredly. "Simon and Josh said it was okay if i slept with you tonight." He says, brushing the hair from my eyes.
"Goodnight Vikk." He says, kissing my forehead. "Night Lachy" I says, drifting off to sleep.
