⚠️TRIGGER WARNING

ALSO LISTEN TO THE SONG IF YOU WANT TOO, CYRUS WILL PLAY IT IN THE CHAPTER. ENJOY!

"You, you called me dad!" Adam, Cyrus' dad
exclaimed. "Well yeah, you are, your my dad!" Cyrus felt a drift of happiness flood inside of him, something that doesn't happen a lot
"Hey Cyrus, you want to go for a meal tonight? I know this restraunt not too far from here, maybe we can get to know eachother better?"
"Yeah sure! That sounds great"

--Time skip, later at the restaurant--

Cyrus & his father sat down at the table, facing opposite eachother. Cyrus ordered a plate of spicy stuff whilst Cyrus' father just got a cheeseburger

"So, what was it like in Scranton?" Cyrus' father asked
"I loved it there, I liked the whole scene of the city, & I loved being so close to some really major cities like Philadelphia & New York, but I hated school there, I didn't really have any friends & I was very shy so I guess it was kinda shitty"
"Fair enough, I've been to the east coast & I prefer that side, I lived in New Jersey for a few years as well, but I was born here"
"That's cool, so do you have any hobbies or anything?"
"Not really, I've never been good at stuff, how about you?"
"Well I play the guitar sometimes"
"Really? That's cool, do you have a guitar?"
"Yeah I have an acoustic in my bedroom"
"Oh I've never heard you play it"
"So what music do you listen too?" Cyrus' dad asked
"Well it varies, I can listen to heavy metal & bands like Korn & Slipknot, Marilyn Manson & System Of A Down but then I can listen to like Crown The Empire & Asking Alexandria, but I also like Green Day & a bit of Paramore & Get Scared, but my favourite band are Motionless In White, & they actually come from Scranton so it's really really cool"
"I've heated of Get Scared, they come from Layton which isn't that far from here, but I guess I just like whatever is on the radio"
"Oh, that's cool"
"So, you ever had a girlfriend?" Cyrus' dad asked

Cyrus started to sweat do I tell him? Do I not tell him? Was all he could think. "Not really" "how come? Your a good looking kid, you know that right?" "Yeah but, the thing is...I'm g-"
"Your what?"

"G...g...ay" that was the first ever time Cyrus had said the 'g word'.

Cyrus' dad...looked a mixture of different ways? It was confusing

"Well...no? Your not gay! That goes against all of my beliefs?!"
"Wha...?"
"I can't, your not my son!" Cyrus' dad spat "I DONT WANT YOU IN MY HOME YOU FAG! PACK YOUR SHIT & LEAVE!"

Cyrus' dad stormed out of the restaurant, leaving Cyrus to sit there & cry, warm tears swarmed over his red cheeks & puffy eyes, he left his table, leaving a $30 near his finished plate, storming out of the restaurant & plugging in his earphones, playing Korn-Faget

"I'm just a faget! I'm just a faget! I'm not a faget!!! (or am I) a world of fucking queers!"

The lyrics screamed at him, making more warm tears stroll down his cheeks. Upsetting him even more, slowly, he walked to his now broken home, slammed the door open & saw his 'father' passed out on the couch, bottles of strong whisky on the table, he was of course drunk. Cyrus went to his bedroom, angry.

The same rage built up inside of him the same way it did when his mother died, he attached his room, pulling down the band posters, flipping his bed upside down, smashing his TV & his computer, breaking the wood on his dressers & smashed all of the windows. It was a massive mess.

He got all of his clothes, packed them in his school bag, got his guitar & left his second broken home

He got all of his clothes, packed them in his school bag, got his guitar & left his second broken home. He was giving up. Before he left, he picked up the secret object in the bag, hidden in a cup filled with pens on his desk, he placed his bag over his shoulder, headed down the spiral stair case, & out the red  front door. But before he could, he was stopped, "where do you think your going?!" A loud, angry, drunk voice said, Cyrus turned his head, his 'father' wobbling his way to words him, "stupid...little...fag!" He screamed

He grabbed Cyrus by the hair, & chucked him on the floor

KICK!...KICK!...KICK!

In the face, the back, the legs, it hurt him

"STOPP! GET THE FUCK OFF ME!"

All this raging anger inside of Cyrus, turned into a form of adrenaline, he swooped his 'fathers' legs & caused him too collapse on the floor next to Cyrus, Cyrus created a ball of fire in his hand, & the temptation too just burn his 'father' to a crisp was at the front of his mind. "WHAT THE FUCK! It's true! Y..you...you & Tracy...you have...powers!" Cyrus dad shouted, it was like he just sobered, but he wasn't "Peter was right all along!"
"What are you on about? Your drunk!"

Before waiting for a reply Cyrus legged it out of the door, quickly grabbing his bag & acoustic guitar, running away from that home he thought was going to be a fresh, safe start.

Cyrus looked at the time on his phone, 00:13, nobody was around, so he flew his way to school this early in the morning. He finally found an open window that lead into one of the classrooms, & walked down the halls into the nearest bathrooms, he switched on the lights, went too a mirror & first of all inspected his face

Busted lip, & a slight purple eye, it was little & would probably go back to normal after he fell asleep, he slowly took of his shirt, large black & purple bruises scattered all over his body, his back, he removed his jeans, bruises all again down his legs & on his ankles, he was covered in bruises all down his arms, so he knew he had to wear a lot of long sleeved clothing to cover it all up. Cyrus was heavily depressed & this wasn't a new thing, Cyrus has been depressed since age 11 & nobody ever knew. He got the secret object from the bag & placed it into his palm. A sharp blade. He rolled up to the top off his sleeves, revealing some perhaps 1-2 year old scars, some a few months, some from a few weeks ago. Some from yesterday. Red slits covered the tops of his arms. Slowly, he dug in & dragged the blade through his tanned skin, slicing it open, thick thick thick cherry red blood oozing out, gulp... gulp...gulp

1...2....3.       6...7.....8        17....18

More & more cuts, Cyrus laid in a flood of tears, grabbed his guitar & sang a song through sobs, to try & calm him down.

LYRICS TO THE SONG, SKIP IF YOU WANT.

"The wall that I have built to keep you out is starting to rust
Because everything around me just reminds me of us.
I am an addict for dramatics, black hair and pale skin.
Yet I'm still collecting bones, but that's why closets are for skeletons

Undress your body, hold it over my head
Because you know that if you knock then
I will always let you in
I've been numb for so long that I forgot how to feel
So I don't care if it will break my heart,
Just fuck me till we disappear

You said you'd never hurt me
Now this is all that we have left
You were supposed to save me
From myself

The wall that I have built to keep you out has crumbled to dust
And I hope that everything you see reminds you of us
I've been gone for so long, I forgot what is real
So I don't care if I will miss you, please just... til' we disappear

You never said you'd hurt me
Now this is all that we have left
You were supposed to save me
From myself

You said you'd never love me
But look how hard someone can fall
I was supposed to save you
From yourself

Now the sky is on fire and we lie wide awake
There is no other way than to make this mistake
We can't control who we hurt so we... the pain away
So put all of your pride, all your guilt into me
Suck the breath from my lungs and I'll swallow your hate
Can't control how we hurt so we... the pain away"

END OF THE SONG OOF

Cyrus cleared all the blood from the sides of the bathroom sink, cleaned it from his arms & locked himself in a stall, slowly falling asleep.
