Perfect

I woke up around six like usual but i noticed that my dad didnt wake me up like he mostly always does, i sat up and almost shit myself when the front door slammed shut echoing the hall.
“dad?” i called out, i frowned to myself i found it strange, i flung the cover off of me and walked out to the hall, i heard a small whimper, i began to breath heavy as i slowly walked over to my parents room, in all my life i’ve never been in my parents room, i took a deep breath and opened the door, i gasped at the smell, it stunk of sweat, the first thing i saw was specks of blood on the wall, i heard the whimper again, i opened the door more my eyes widened at the sight
“dad!” i shouted i ran over to the bed, blood drenched the cover causing it to stick to my dads body, i ripped it off of him, he yelped and curled into himself, his naked body bruised and cut up, i never noticed how skinny my father was i crawled on the bed and hugged my dads body, he moved around and grabbed me he began sobbing violently still shacking
“dad?” i asked he just kept crying
“dad why are you still with him if he’s doing this to you?”
“because i love him jay” he sobbed
“so? I don’t care, i know he’s my dad but i fucking hate him, dad please leave him” i whined
“and go where we can’t go anywhere” he sniffed
I thought for a minute, i turned and looked at the clock, it was only 6:17am i sighed
“i’ve got to go to school soon dad, but i’m not leaving you in this mess, come on” i grabbed his hands and led him to the bathroom, i sat him down on the toilet seat and whipped the dry blood from his wrists, chest, legs and face
“you can do your butt” i laughed making him smile i handed his robe and went to get dressed i came back and stripped the bed, i cringed at the sight i took off all the sheets and flipped the mattress, dad came back in tying his rope
“i’ll help” he offered
“no go back some coffee and chill out, sleep in my bed if you want” i smiled
“so good, has his dads heart” he mumbled the last part i think i wasnt meant to hear it, i stopped and frowned ‘dads heart’ what did he mean, i went to the draws and pulled out a new cover sheet, i heard something fall out, i walked over and put the sheet on the bed i looked at what feel, it was a picture i looked at it it was a wedding photo of, my dad and some guy the where holding hands the guys smiling as my dad kissed his cheek i looked closer at the man he looked familiar i shook the thought and hid it again knowing what reece would do if he found it, once the bed was made and the others were binned i walked out into the living room, i grabbed my bag and want over to dad
“dad i know someone who could help we just need a plan i’ll be back as soon as i can”
“okay” he smiled weakly
“i love you dad” i hugged him
“you too”
I walked out and to school

Time Lapse

I walked up to mr iero’s office knocking on the door he was reading a book so i did it louder he looked up and smiled motioning for me to come in, he crossed his legs and put the book on his lap
“hello jay, how are you today”
“could you, i mean not to sound rude but could you call me jason?” i asked
“sure, so jason tell me whats happened today?”
“this morning my dad he-he reece beat him bad and the bed was soaked with blood a-and last night he-he arh”
“he did it again?” mr iero frowned
“and i think he was married before” i huffed
“who your dad or reece?”
“my dad, he looked so happy and different his hair wasnt greasy, he didnt have bags under his eyes, he looked in love and healthy”
“you got all that from one picture?” mr iero smiled
“y-yeah i guess”
“how do you know is wasnt reece?”
“because reece burned all the pictures of them together r-reece said he didnt want to look pathetic next to a shitty thing like my dad, reasons why they dont go out together” i muttered
“so describe the man for me”
“him and my dad were both wearing black suits and white ties, a red rose pinned on there blazers, he was more tanned then dad, he had a red shaved side and black the rest with the tip of his fringed curled, my dads was laughing at him, he had a scorpion tattoo on his neck an-” i looked up at mr iero his eyes were glassy and he just stared at me
“what?” i questioned
“n-no nothing uh jason i-” he was cut off by the bell
“we’ll ive got to go”
“wait jason here” he pulled out a plain card and jotted down his number
“call me if anything happened to you or y-your dad”
I took it and smiled
“thank you so much” i began to cry a little
“for what?” he let go and chuckled
“for helping me,us, him”
“no problem”
I smiled and waved and walked away down the hall it felt to good get it out my system
