⚠️Abuse and slurs⚠️
"He's a little faggot! He doesn't deserve to live!" Wentworth yelled, slurring a bit on his words.
"Went, he's our son! You cant just leave him on the streets you asshole!" Maggie yelled back, tears rolling down her face.
Wentworth slapped Maggie hard, making her step back in shock.
"Get the fuck out of this house!" Wentworth boomed, ready to hit her again.
7 year old Richie stood at the top of the stairs, silently sobbing as he watched his parents fight.
Maggie looked at Richie, then went to her room to pack her stuff.
"I'll come back, I promise" she whispered to Richie, then she was gone, driving away and leaving her son with that abusive man.
"This is all your fault you little faggot! Now I'm going to make you pay," Wentworth slurred, stepping towards Richie.
He started giggling like a madman, and his laughs sounded clown-like.
Red lines grew on his face, painting him into a clown.
"COME PLAY RICHIE!"
"NO!" Richie screamed, shooting up in bed. He rubbed his eyes trying to get used to the darkness, but he couldn't see shit without his glasses.
He felt around for them, and when he put them on he remembered where he was, and almost on cue Eddie let out a soft snore.
Richie laid back down, but he couldn't fall back asleep. The memories of his dream played in his mind, and he realized he was crying.
He tried stifling his sobs, but then he heard the heavenly voice beside him.
"Chee? Whats wrong?" A sleepy Eddie asked, his eyes still half closed.
"Just a nightmare s'all." Richie said, turning to face Eddie.
Eddie pulled him closer, and Richie nuzzled into the crook of Eddies neck, sobbing and getting Eddies shirt wet with tears.
Eddie didn't mind though. He wanted to be there to comfort Richie, and he knew how bad Richies nightmares could get.
"Shhh, it okay chee, I'm here" Eddie cooed, holding Richie so close that there wasn't any space between them.
Soon Eddie could hear Richies small snores, knowing he had cried himself to sleep.
Eddie smelled Richies hair, the smell of strawberry shampoo filling his nose.
Hopefully no more nightmares tonight, Eddie thought, and he drifted back into slumber.
