chapter 1
Be Dave Strider ===>
Day after day. It gets old sometimes. The beatings. You get so used to it. Your body goes dumb to the kicks. The punches sting less. The physical pain is drowned out by the emotional.
Looking at yourself in the mirror you cant help but ask.
"Why"
But you know why. Your pathetic. Your real family didn't want you. No one does. You deserve this treatment. You.are.trash. Maybe one day he will kick you hard enough to kill you to end your suffering. No.....that's to easy.....You were meant to suffer....
You stood in front of the mirror looking at all the new marks the man who is supposed to be your care taker gave you.
" worthless" you let the word slip from your chapped lips
" what's worthless Dave?" The familiar voice said. You turn around to see none other than john Egbert. A being of your imagination. You have finally hit rock bottom in seeing people.
"Nothing........" you said softly getting dressed for school.
" so you have that big science test today did you study? " john asked laying back on your bed not damaging the freshly made bed.
"Your not my mother shut up and go away already " you said starting to get stressed out.
" I can't I just wake up here so I'm like guessing this is a world inside my head or something" john said sitting up. You choose to ignore what he says as you throw on your backpack. You accidentally moved wrong sending a shock wave of pain up your body. You let out a hiss in pain.
" are you okay?" John asked walking over in concern. You grit your teeth walking past him. You walked out the door as john followed you.
"Dave did I upset you? I'm sorry? I'm just not used to this I don't know what's going on I just keep waking up here and " john was in the middle of saying as you cut him off.
"SHUT UP YOUR NOT FUCKING REAL. I don't need my own fucking mind to make up parent figures. So disappear already so I can get some peace" you yelled at him blowing a fuse.
John looked at you like he was actually hurt before he ran off.
" stay the fuck away" you said softly as you walked. The truth is you didn't hate john. He was always there when you needed it the most. In bad storms he would tell you jokes to keep your mind off of what's going on. He would be your look out when you when downstairs at night to steal food to eat. He would always lighten up your day But the fact he wasn't real killed you. The fact that someone as great of a guy he was isn't real. The fact he is wasting his non existing time with you hurt. He always talked about wanting to go see Paris. He also always talks about this actor Nickolas Cage. Why your head picked to make a boy like this is strange but you certainly don't deserve it.
As you walked onto school you ignore all the people by putting in your heads . You head to your locker to put your bag away. John would always be next to you in school. He would make the classes fun by making comments about the teachers outfit or some kids in class.
The more you think about john the worse you feel about yelling at him. The kid is a sensitive to everything.
You close your locker heading to your classroom as the bell rang. The teacher took role and then started to pass out the test. This wasn't helping your already stressful morning. When she handed you the test it was on a completely different topic than the one you studied for.
You were going to fail it.
You were going to get beaten.
Your anxiety started kicking in. You ball your hands up looking down at your shoes. You tried to steady your breath as it started to pick up. Your eyes start to dart around the room as you start to hear noises.
"Failure "
"You deserve what's coming to you"
" your not loved "
"Stop breathing"
" die already. Your taking up my air"
You cover your ears in hopes of shutting them out. You put your head on the desk trying not to make any nosing as your leg started to get the jitters. You let out a small whimper.
"David are you alright? " the teacher asked as she was drowned out by the voices.
" David?"
"David!"
" Dave" johns voice said behind you as his arms wrapped around you tightly. He was the only one who could ever calm you down along with one other.
" Dave breath its okay I'm here for you calm down. Focus " he said softly. How he was able to touch you would always spark up whenever he would hold you but you really didn't care.
As he held onto you everything started to die down. The voices went away and your breathing calmed.
" good john Dave now answer the teacher so I can help you cheat already " john said with a smile. Thanks to him your grades are not something you get beat for.
" I'm fine Ms. G thank sorry I disrupted the class" you said giving her a head nod before you started to listen to john tell you the answers.
God he is such a dork but.....I guess you could say he is your dork.
The two class periods before lunch went smoothly. You were on your way to your locker to get your notebook since the man never feeds you or give you money for food. When you opened your locker you see a brown paper bag that wasn't there before sitting on your backpack with a yellow sticky note.
" oohhh do you got a secret admirer?" John teased behind you.
"What no" you said taking it and your book bag out if your locker. You closed it heading down to go sit outside in your favorite spot under the tree.
" so like what if there is like a head in the bag?" John asked curious .
His question made you laugh a bit.
" whose head is this small?" You asked replied sitting down looking at the bag.
" hey it could be the other head" john teased.
"what no ew holy hell" you chuckled picking up the yellow sticky note.
" hey lil man I know he don't feed you so here I will bring you lunch everyday. Its safe to eat trust me but ima get you out of there I promise soon okay lil man. "
You read the note seeing a doodle of hella Jeff on the left hand corner. You gasped a bit as you open the bag to find FOOD!
A small thing of apple juice, a bag of Doritos , some candy, and a sandwich.
You couldn't even describe your emotions right now as you stuffed your face.
John watched you with a smile.
" not an admirer more like angle or something " he said softly watching you.
Once you finished eating you read over the note again and again.
" someone's actually cares?" You said softly not able to hold the tears back.
" they want to get me out of the house! They actually went as far to make me food!" You take your shades off to cry in your hand. You cant help this break down.
"see Dave your not alone you never were" john said softly wrapping his arms around you.
Be Dirk Strider ===>
You watched Dave eat his lunch at his normal spot. You didn't know how to cook much but you were trying. He always seemed to be talking to himself.
You look at the clock to see you were about to be late for your new job.
Care taker for this you were guessing old man. The sister or family was going out of town for a 7 months and she is paying you 1200$ a month to take care of this old guy. damn rich people. You quickly got in your truck as you drove away heading to the address. You pull up to a mini mansion looking at the gate.
You felt anger well up inside you. As you calm yourself down you drive up to the gate pressing a button . A young girl came over the speaker.
" Are you Dirk Strider? " she asked
" yes " you reply as the gates open up. You drove in parking in one of spaces. You quickly jump out to be met by a girl with long hair.
"Hi! My names jade and I'm running late so I have to do a quick show of the place its actually not that big. " she said grabbing your arm pulling you inside as you try not to think about killing her. She showed you around the place that literally looked like a Museum. There were so many artifacts everywhere you realize what the gate was for now.
" Jake English the man who is like my uncle likes to collect things" she said pulling you along.
" I see that" you mumbled
" don't worry you don't have to clean any of this and by the way Jake....he is not to happy about this set up with someone taking care of him he is a do it his own kind of guy" she said leading you to his room. She finally let go of your hand so she could knock on the door.
" Jaaakke coming in" she said as she went to open the door to have it locked.
"NO YOU are NOT. I don't NEED A BLOOD babysitter SOO GO AWAY SIR OR MISS YOUR SERVICES ARE NOT NEEDED " he yelled throw the door.
"jjjjjaaaaaaaaaakkkkkkkkkkkeeeee"
she whined
"jjaaaadddddeeee" he mocked.
" fine whatever " she huffed before she pulled you along.
" so i will be back in around 6 or 7 months. If he gives you trouble just call me. If you so please stay here the guest room is right there you will have to go shopping just....take care of him please? Steal anything and you will really have awoken a beast that will hunt you down and make you apart of the collection annndd finally make sure to feed the dog just put some meat in the dumbwaiter. And lower it down and your good. by? By have fun " she said dashing to her car that had a bunch of suit cases on them. And just like that she was gone.
"Jade....are they gone?" The Jake guy asked as you heard him come down the hall you stay quiet. You needed this job. If you pull it off you can finally get Dave away from that man legally.
Jake shuffled around the corner and to your surprise it wasn't an old man it was a man about your age. He was holding the wall as he looked around. He was a dork. He was so cute.
" oh....um...hi..." Jake said
" I know your here" he added
" hello my name is dirk and I will be here to make sure you don't hurt yourself " you said making your location known
" your a bit late for that as you can see" Jake said as he started to shuffle himself around. He had this determined look on his face as he tried not to hit anything.
"Where are you going?" You asked going over to guide him.
Jake sighs " i was going to the kitchen to get water you don't have to do this you can just go home and i can say your were here and you still get paid" Jake said looking up at you. You haven't gayed so hard for someone in your life.
" I do need the cash but no I took the job I will watch you" you said helping him walk to the kitchen.
" so your blind? " you asked softly.
Jake sighs
" yeah....I wasn't born but it was an accident. I fell and hit the back of my head hard and something got hurt. The doctors are trying to figure stuff out. But until then I'm blind and depending on what they find I might have to stay like this" Jake said softly clinging onto your arm.
" well that's okay I guess I have seen things most people only dream of" he added with a soft sigh.
You lead him to the kitchen to see how big it was.
He shuffled over to the cabinets to get two glasses.
" want anything? " Jake asked as he set a glass to close to the edge of the counter.
It fell on the floor shattering making Jake jump.
You let out a sigh as you go over to move him away from the glass shards.
" I'm...sorry..." he said softly looking down.
"Why are you sorry?" You asked cleaning up the glass.
" because ....I'm Going to he a pain.....I'm completely helpless i cant even get water" Jake said his lip quivering just a bit.
"Hey hey your not a problem accidents happen I mean shit I was one but hey I'm still here" you said making Jake look at you.
" I don't know whether or not to come over there and hug you or question your sanity " Jake said with a chuckle.
" all of them my dude" you said getting some water for him. Jake smiled at you.
" you know you sound very hot. Are you hot?" Jake asked taking a sip of his water.
" that's for me to know and you to dream about" you said with a smirk.
For once someone was making you feel like a person. You always were working. Treated like a dog or as someone to walk on but...he is here treating you like a human...maybe you will like this job...
