(Disclaimer: involves mention of domestic violence, read with care <3)
[btw this is fiction, so of course Dan's parents aren't actually like this nor am I insinuating they are. I love Dan's parents even though we don't even know them, but they bought up an amazing son so ye. sadness time]

Do you ever just want to run away - DH
In what context? - PL
You know just pack a bag, don't even bother leaving a note and then take off. That kind of running away - DH
I mean I'll go for a walk if I've had an argument with my brother or parents but I've never thought of actually running away - PL
Hm - DH
Why?? - PL
I'm so close to actually running and disappearing from my family - D
What happened? :( - PL
It was my fault, per usual - DH
Dan are you okay? - PL
Am I ever okay? - DH
Dan, they haven't hurt you again have they - PL
Idk I've got a pretty nice bruise building up on my stomach and my lips got a lovely cut for an accessory - DH
Oh no - PL

What else happened ? - PL
What is this master mind? - DH
