I'll protect you (dadvid)

Home?

It was dark when they arrived, David gently sighed as he stopped the car in front of his house. It was a large house, flowers covering the lawn with a gentle green color. He gently picked up the boy, taking note of how light he was, putting him in a spare bedroom. He soon got out calling child protective services.

~Time skip~

Max woke up early in the morning panting, shaking.

"Fuck-" he hissed looking at his arms.

Old and new  with cuts and beatings from his parents, still hurt. He knew he was safe, he knew David would protect him but what if they came back? They would take him away, David they would-
He shook away the thoughts quickly as he got out of the unfamiliar room, feeling anxious. He started to panic slightly as he noticed Mr. Honeynuts wasn't by his side, but soon got slightly relieved as he heard cooking. He soon walked towards the kitchen, the familiar tall looking man.

"Hey max!" David exclaimed, turning around and looking at the child.

Max looked at him, pissed off. He wasn't but he didn't want to show the man his true feelings of anxiousness.

"Hey David." He responded, bored.

"I'm making some breakfeast kiddo! Do you like pancakes and eggs?" He smiled somehow wider.

"Yeah.." max sighed gently. Soon looking at his hands. "Um David...?"

"Yeah?"

"Where's Mr. Honeynuts?"

David chuckles slightly as he turned off the stove, serving the food on the plates putting it on the table. Max watched, calming down more.

"He's over their in the living room, I patched him up more." He replied.

Max quickly went to the living room, grabbing his toy holding it tightly to his chest, smiling genuinely.

"Thank god.." he whispers as he made his way to the kitchen sitting on the chair.

They soon started to eat the breakfast, the atmosphere tense, causing the boy to feel again, more anxious.

"So um max..I called them and they have a court order for you to appeal that they have been abusing you." David said gently after he finished his food.

Max looked up from his food, hugging his bear tightly.

"I- Okay David." He said roughly, he gently glared at David.

The older man sighed, as max got up from the table holding his bear tightly until a question stopped his tracks, hell even stopped his breath.

"Let me see your scars, max."
