Mully's pov;
I heard crying from the gaming room and thought it was Josh so I ran into the room only to see Josh listening to Ree kid cry. I walked closer so I could hear him
"J-Josh, they fight all the time! I can barely sleep at night due to them yelling and screaming." Ree kid cried
"I swear one way or another, I'm getting you out of the house." Josh replied
I sat down and listened to them, trying to be quiet.
"J-Josh, I heard something break...I'm scared."
"Stay calm Ree kid, I'm here and I swear if they come near you. Me and Mully will personally come pick you up."
His words echoed through my head as soon as he said it.
There was a knock on Ree kid's door so he whispered to Josh to mute himself. Josh did as he was told and listened to the conversation between Ree kid and who was knocking.
(Trigger Warning: I'm sorry for what's about to happen. No I don't believe Ree kid's parents hit him nor do I believe that they would hurt their own child. I'm sorry for this.)
Ree kid started screaming and tried to hold back his tears
"M-Mum...please! W-whatever happened between you and dad doesn't have to involve me..."
Josh put his nails into his arm, worried about Ree kid.
The next thing you could hear was something glass and Ree kid screaming and crying.
"Bye bye brat." His mom continued to beat him until he was unconscious.
Josh's nails went deeper into his skin and he looked at me. I wheeled over to Josh and pulled him close, I rubbed his back and sighed softly.
Ree kid's door opened again and we heard another scream. It sounded like a male so I thought it was his dad. His dad picked his body up and threw Ree kid onto the bed. All we could hear was Ree kid going in and out of consciousness. Me and Josh felt helpless, we couldn't save the kid like we said we would. Everything stopped when Ree kid's dad hanged up on us before saying,
"Faggots turned my son into this. He was normal before you guys showed up."
Josh's eyes went from their normal blue to darker blue as he teared up,
"W-we have to save him Mully! That's our friend!"
"Josh..."
"I care about him Mully!" He jumped up and grabbed his keys, he was gonna to go get Ree kid.
I gulped and got up, "Hun, I know what you're doing but please think about this.."
"No. Mullen! I can't! That's Ree kid! Our friend! Now I'm gonna go get him and bring him here, I'm not letting his parents go near him again!" with that Josh walked out the door and all I could hear was his car driving away.
I sighed softly and went to go fix up the guest room for Ree kid. As I finished up the guest room, I sat on the bed and teared up. I covered my face and continued to cry, "W-what if they killed him...? Poor boy....never got to live a full life."
Bentley walked into the room and looked up at me, I picked him up and held him close. I continued to cry until I started to get sleepy. I laid down and pulled Bentley closer to me, falling asleep.
Josh's pov;
I continued to make my way to Ree kid's house. Me and Mully decided it was better for us to live closer to Ree kid so we could pick up from him and hang out with him sometimes. I gripped the wheel as I made my way towards Ree kid's house as I mentally cursed myself, thinking Ree kid wouldn't be in this situation if it wasn't for me and Mully.. I made it to the house and got out, I locked the car and walked to the door. I knocked on the door, only to be greeted by Ree kid's mum.
"I'm sorry Josh but Ree kid will no longer be hanging out with you."
She almost closed the door before I stopped it with my foot, "Miss. I'd do anything for that kid. Hearing him cry makes me feel helpless that I can't save him."
His mom nodded softly and sighed. She opened the door and walked away. I walked in and made my way to Ree kid's room. I almost fell to the floor when I saw him on the bed. I picked him up and pulled him close and cried, "Please don't leave us...kid..."
"J-Josh" Ree kid spoke softly
"Kid!"
"I-I wanna go.."
"I'll take you back to my place.."
"N-No Josh...God won't let me die.."
"Ree kid please..."
"Goodbye Josh..." he said softly before passing out.
I pulled out my phone and called the police, "A kid has been abused by his parents...I think he's close to dying."
The world stopped at that moment and I couldn't feel anything but anger towards his parents. The police showed up and arrested his parents and Ree kid was on his way to the hospital.
(Trigger warning over)
I packed up some of his gaming stuff and put them in the car. I put Ree kid's dogs in the car with some of their stuff. I closed the house door behind me, making a promise to Ree kid and myself that I would get all of his stuff. I got into the car and made my way back to Mully. When I got there, I got the dogs out and their stuff, "Mully!" Mully ran to me and started crying,
"W-Where is he?!"
"At the hospital, I'm gonna check on him later. Help me with his stuff I managed to get." Mully nodded softly and went to the computer and other stuff. He walked in and sat up them up quickly. I let Ree kid's dogs play with Felix, watching them so they don't hurt each other. Mully walked over to me and hugged me tightly, tears falling down his face,
"W-What if he's gone..?"
"He's Ree kid..he will be okay.."
he let go and sighed softly, wiping his tears. He went to the gaming room and decided to call the boys. I heard their voices and smiled. I went back to my car and checked if I left anything in there and I didn't so I locked the car and went back into the house. I locked the door and walked to the gaming room, I walked up behind Mully and hugged him. I sighed softly and sat in his lap. He wrapped his arms around me and I smiled softly.
"So what's up? Why did you call us?" Narrator asked, holding Eddie close to him.
I gulped and grabbed onto Mully's arm, tightly, "R-Ree kid..."
Narrator let go of Eddie for a moment and made a fist,
"What did those assholes did to our Ree kid?!"
"Grant...calm down" Eddie hugged him softly and smiled softly
"Ree kid is in the hospital..." Mully said
"I saw him...his face was not our Ree kid...he told me he wanted to go and God wouldn't let him..."
Mully rubbed my back softly and sighed softly,
"Guys, We have to protect him.."
"Adopt him!" Juicy smiled nervously
"That's a good idea." Eddie smiled softly and kissed Narrator's check.
I muted me and Mully for a second, "Would you want us to adopt him?"
"Yea, he's already like my son and I'd do anything to keep him happy."
I unmuted the boys and smiled softly, "Mully and I have agreed on adopting him."
"Can we be his god parents-" Eddie asked
"Yes!" Mully yelled softly and laughed.
"Me and Ed's gotta go, keep us posted about Ree kid" they hanged up
"I better go to!" Juicy smiled softly and hanged up.
I got up and picked Bentley up, I went to lay down only to have Mully and Felix and Ree kid's dogs laying down with me. Mully pulled me close and put the covers on us. I put Bentley between us and smiled softly, "If this is my life, I don't wanna die."
Mully laughed softly and kissed me,
"Us. Bentley and Felix. And Ree kid's dogs."
"They'll probably sleep in his room once we fixed it up some more." I smiled softly
"Now all we have to do is wait for him to be better.."
(A/N: That's end of the chapter! I enjoy writing this besides the Ree kid parts..but ye! I hope you enjoyed!)
