Austin

  Nobody pov

  Austin fell back against the wall as his father beat him, this has happened for years he didn't properly remember his life before it happened he was always unwanted in his parents life

He did the shopping , he worked, he cooked and cleaned, he even had to drop out of high school so he could have a full time job, but his parents were never satisfied

He hated it

He hated how his parents wanted him dead, he hated how he had to miss out on his childhood, he hated coming home to a beating everyday if something wasn't done right,he hated being abused all the time, he hated how unfair life was

"Clean this shit up and get started on dinner"

He nodded watching his father walk away probably to the wine room or something

He wasn't allowed to go anywhere but the kitchen, the livingroom (only to clean), and his room

His room wasn't much he had a small bed with a thin blanket and a pillow but one day when he got a bonus he bought himself a stuffed animal it was a pink teddy bear and he named it rosy

He mostly had it for comfort just something to cry into and hug at the end of the day

He cleaned up the livingroom, dinning room, and the kitchen and finished his parents dinner then quickly went to his room

He sighed and went to the bathroom to take a quick shower and then laying in bed hugging rosy tight

He felt stressed and the more and more bruises that formed the harder it was to go to work without people noticing

Some would say to tell the police or someone at work but he was scared

He loved his parents or at least his thought he did he felt like it was deserved since he ruined there marriage, or at least that's what they blamed him for

He woke up to yelling downstairs and quickly went to get ready, yesterday's injuries finally getting to him as he groans bandaging his hip and running downstairs

He quickly fixes his parents breakfast and puts his shoes on about to leave for work

"Hey brat"  Austin looked over to his mother her tail gently swaying as she sat on the porch chair

"Have a good day and try to get home early your father wanted to talk or something" She lit her cigarette and looked back at him a hint of sadness in her eyes

Austin looked up and then nodded a small smile on his face "I will and have a good day too"

He didn't understand the sudden kindness but he was happy about it nonetheless

He knew his mother wasn't all that bad it was mostly the drugs and his father's influencing but she was kind to him sometimes sneaking him stuff or giving him bandaids etc.

He made his way to work after having to sprint halfway not wanting to be late where he found his "friend" aka some dude who follows him around and talks too much

Meet Daniel

He's made of slime or something nobody really knows but he acts as if he was human the wholeeeee time and no one questions him just shrugs it off

Everyone here is either a monster or a human or both take Austin fir example his father is a human but his mother is a demon

You would think it would be cool but it just makes his anxiety go up more, sometimes he hears that shadow thingy talk to him
