Good Morning/Night Pups. I posted the last chapter and it didn't save the tittle so I had to change it if you noticed. Sorry for the wait, now onto the chapter.
(Fresh PoV)
I woke up... I think. I couldn't see anything. I was pretty sure I was blindfolded, but I think the room was dark as well. My head ached and my heart leapt out of my chest as my thoughts wandered to Pj... 'Is he safe? Did they hurt him? Was he taken as well? Is this his prank? C-could t-they have k-k-killed h-him.' I felt something cold trickle down my cheek and realized I was crying. I heard a high pitched giggle and instantly recognized it as the voice of the school flirt, "Bunny". Hatred dripped from the words and the giggling stopped. I felt someone walk closer. And closer. And closer. Until I could feel their breath against my ear as a manly voice whispered "And me... remember me." The voice oozed with familiarity but I couldn't remember who. That scared me most of all. Part of me knew who it was but I was trying my hardest to be reasonable and not assume.
I heard the gruff voice talk to bunny "Bunny please leave the room, I need to speak to my son alone..." It was now definitely him and I hated that it was him. I tried to wiggle out of the rope constricting my hands, but failed. Defeated I asked "What do you want?" He chuckled and responded "Straight to the point aren't you. Well, I need my heir to the tittle to be prepared. I'm reaching 40 soon, the new heir will take over. I need that heir to be you, it's family tradition. I also heard a rumor you're gay." I gulped a little, I knew what was coming. He had gagged me so I couldn't speak, not like he would listen anyway. He continued "Well this better be all rumors... Anyway lets talk about the deal I have." He removed the blindfold and my eyes darted hopelessly around the room for an escape. "Bunny!" He yelled.
Bunny skipped into the room excitedly. I guessed the deal benefited her some way as she only ever thought of herself. She and my 'father' took a seat. I was tied to a chair so I suppose I was already seated. I watched as they began to explain the deal. Bunny spoke first, which I think annoyed my 'father'. Bunny stated "What I want is simple. STAY AWAY FROM MY PJ." I shook a little as her screams. Then my 'father' spoke "You will move back in with me, stop hanging around with all those nerd friends and practice sports for four hours each day. I don't care about homework at all. Finally, in two months, on your birthday, you will come out as my son and win the battle for my tittle." I was baffled on why he thought I would agree to do any of this. The worst thing he could do was kill me and honestly I would rather die than leave those I love.
I was shaking my head vigorously when a blue glow emitted from my 'father's' hand. I stared intensely at it and saw it was a humanoid shape. My father threatened "You wouldn't want to be the cause for your mother's death a second time, would you?" Then it hit me, the person in the blue glow was my mum. I held back the tears and sadly nodded. I didn't want to but no one should get hurt because of my selfishness. My dad then absorbed the light and pointed his hands at me. He fired a blast of light towards me and I closed my eyes tightly. I eventually opened them to find Pj staring up at me. He had just ran up to me worried. 'God. How am I going to do this to him?' I thought. I gradually gained the confidence to speak but I still stuttered "Erm... P-P-Pj I-I d-don't think we s-should be l-lovers o-or f-f-friends anymore." He looked crushed but it slowly faded to anger "I-Is this because o-of last night! I-I don't care if you don't want to do stuff like that yet. We could never do it if you want, just please don't leave m-me!" He was sobbing and crying. I wanted to hug him and tell him the truth, I had to stay strong. For my mums sake and I had no doubt my 'father' would kill Pj, despite whatever agreement he and Bunny have.
He stumbled to his feet. I stayed sat down,I didn't know what to do. I just broke up with Pj. I had feared him breaking my heart and now I was breaking his. What's worse was I knew that my friends were next. He left my house and made sure to slam the door. I cringed, I knew he was in pain. I hated them. I hated Bunny. I hated my 'father' all he ever did was ruin my life. I wished he had killed me back then. I wouldn't have been missed. I wouldn't hurt them. I wouldn't be in this pain.
I didn't leave the house all the weekend. It was Monday now and and tear stains lined down my face. I felt worse than I looked though. I had cried and cried until I couldn't cry. Until I couldn't feel anything. I had begged not to feel the pain but now I had my wish, my thoughts were 'be careful what you wish for.' I hadn't wanted this truly. It was just emptiness. I readied myself for school, it was strange. Everything felt so distant without emotions. I had to move in with my 'father' today. I didn't care. Nothing mattered. I didn't really care about my mum anymore, but I didn't care about my friends anymore either. The only one I cared for now hated me, Pj.

I hadn't spoke to anyone at all over the weekend. I just sat in my room. Everyone took turns bringing me food so I wouldn't starve. I hadn't told anyone yet. It was kind of embarrassing, a stupid nerd broke my heart. I missed him I missed how he would complain I was contradicting myself saying a stupid nerd. I guess he was right about that. I was just shocked, this all came out of the blue. He was so happy with me and then he was breaking up with me. He even told me all that junk about his dad and his past. It was probably all fake. I hated I had fallen for him. My brother Palette walked in my room. Before I could shoo him out he asked me "What happened Pj?" I wanted to tell him, so I did. I told him it all. When I was done I was hugging him tightly sobbing on his shoulder, but I felt a lot better. He told me to get ready and advised me to talk to our parents. Maybe he was right. Before he left I caught his arm and asked him to tell our parents, I just didn't want to explain it again. I started getting ready. I thought maybe I should tell people about what he told me, but my gut told me not to say anything. So i didn't. I wanted to hate him so much but I didn't I still loved him. Even if he hurt me.
Okay, sorry this chapter is sad. I have a plan the ship shall sail! Eventually, maybe after it sinks a couple of times. Oh well. I hope you enjoyed this chapter although most of you probably hate me for this. Also, how much do you pups hate Arthur Heart (Fresh's father) and Bunny right now? See you in the next chapter.
