Rating: Last chapter it was PG-13, and now it's R. ^___^
Disclaimer: I do not own NightWalker.
Warning: Yaoi (CainxShido), Child Abuse.
Thanks To The Reviewers
Tia: Don't worry....I won't send Shido back to his
step-father....___
Darkmaster2: I'm glad you like it! And you can take my
other NightWalker fic off your favorite stories list since I doubt I'll get the
inspiration to work on it again.... unless you or Tai threaten me into updating
it.
RekiaReuim: Of course there are people on Shido's
side....now whether or not he accepts I don't know...
kenny-map: I hope he doesn't
either!! ^___^ ___
Abby-WCD: Eh, it's a mix of fluff and angst. Although, it's about to get really angst in
the up coming chapters. __
cainslovershido: Have fun!! I was gonna
do that though... *pouts*
Cat Youkai: -_____-;; Do I know you?
Notes: Okay, I'd just like to say that it's freaky
how much NightWalker fans think a like.
I had three reviews with the word bastard in it. Also, I'd like to inform you that this fic is
almost done. There are only around five
to eight more chapters to type up. Once
this is done, I might try and resurrect my other NightWalker fic...or just start
on a new one.
Chapter Ten
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Shido sat on the couch, staring into the fire intently. Throughout the day, the house had been really
cold for both him and Cain, but instead of turning on the heater, Cain lit a
fire. Shido hadn't spoken much in the
week after the motion hearing. The
defense lost their motion to dismiss.
The judge thought there was enough evidence to support the prosecutions
claim of abuse.
Shido hadn't gone to school the whole week, and had asked Cain to pick up his
homework. He had hardly moved from the
couch, except to eat, go to the bathroom, or go to bed. He felt ashamed, having taken to heart some
of what the defense attorney had said.
Shido felt that he should have said something, instead of trying to cover it
all up. Yayoi and Riho had offered to
make calls to the police, anonymously, but Shido told them not to. Even after being sent to the hospital, he
denied it, and now he was wondering why.
Cain walked over to Shido, sitting down on the couch next to him. "You know, you can't mope around forever," he
said to Shido.
"I'm not moping," Shido muttered. "I'm
rethinking my purpose in life and how I've already fucked my life over."
Cain sighed. "Watch the language."
"Sorry...." Shido mumbled, looking away from Cain.
Cain leaned down, kissing Shido's forehead.
"Stop saying that. You didn't do
anything wrong."
"Sure, if you don't consider being born something wrong," the lavender-haired
youth muttered.
Cain sighed softly. "Don't think like
that... You're a good person, and you didn't deserve what happened to you. What the defense attorney said was just to
get the case thrown out. That doesn't
mean you're a bad person."
Shido turned towards Cain, unshed tears in his eyes. "He was right though. I had plenty of chances to stop it and I
didn't!"
"You were scared! That's normal," Cain stated.
He reached towards Shido's cheek, wiping away to lone tear that managed
to escape its prison.
Shido nuzzled Cain's palm. "I don't
deserve you..."
"Yes you do. You deserve whatever you
want." Shido stared at Cain, before
reaching up and wrapped his arms around Cain's neck, sobbing softly. Embracing Shido, Cain gingerly rubbed his
back in soothing circles.
Shido sniffled slightly, nuzzling Cain's neck.
"I hate crying..."
"I know...but its time you let it all out," Cain whispered.
Shido nuzzled the side of Cain's neck.
"I can't wait for this to be all over so I can forget it and get on with
my life."
"I know. Hopefully it won't be that much
longer."
Shido nodded, stifling a yawn. "I'm
tired," he muttered softly.
"I don't see how you could be. You've
done nothing but sleep all week."
"Not very well."
Cain nodded. "Come on, you're going to
bed, you have to go to school tomorrow."
Shido sighed. "Fine." He allowed Cain to pull him up from the
couch, and lead him away.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Shido sighed, shoving his hands into his pockets. He had developed a great dislike of school
over the day. During his first class, he
had fallen asleep, and got a rude awakening from the teacher. He completely skipped his second hour, staying
the library. He spent his third hour
daydreaming about Cain, which he did during his fifth hour as well. It was one of the few times he hated having
two science classes with the same teacher.
He watched a movie during his forth hour, then was assigned a three page
paper about it. He hadn't been paying
attention during it. He was happy to
have study hall during his sixth hour, so he stayed in his fifth hour class and
re-watched the movie.
He got al his homework turned in, and got a lot of sympathy from his
teachers. He hated that. He didn't want their sympathy or pity, but he
got it. The only thing he liked about
today was he was finally eighteen, which meant that, by law, social services
couldn't do anything about Cain and him.
Now, he just had to wait two more weeks until Cain no longer worked at
his school before they could have an open relationship.
Even though they live in the same house, Shido always took the bus, while Cain
drove home. When Shido told Cain he
wanted it to be like that, Cain wasn't all that happy about it, but
agreed. So now, Shido was walking to the
bus stop that was going to take him there.
He couldn't wait to get there, wondering what it was Cain had
planned.
A block away from the bus stop, Shido passed a dark alley. He passed it everyday on his way to the bus
stop, but it always freaked him out.
Quickening his pace, Shido walked pass the alley. Shido felt something brush against his back,
and brushed it off as someone walking by him.
Suddenly, Shido felt his jacket being jerked, and himself being pulled
backwards into the alley. He barely had
the time to react as he was thrown into two trashcans. Groaning, Shido tried to stand. He fell back to the ground when he was kicked
in the back.
Shido groaned again as someone grabbed the collar of his shirt and he was
shoved against the brick building. "You little shit!" The person spat, and Shido's
eyes flew open, staring fearfully into his step-father's angry eyes. "First you call the cops, get me and your
mother in trouble, then I found out you're a fag!!" He tossed Shido further down the alley.
"I didn't call them!" Shido said, getting off the ground, cradling his arm to
his chest.
"Don't lie to me, you little shit!" He bellowed. He punched Shido in the jaw, and brought his
knee into Shido's gut.
Shido doubled over in pain, groaning and whimpering. "I swear, I didn't call them," he whimpered.
His step father growled, "You little fag!
You're mother should have aborted you when she had the chance."
"She wasn't with you then, so you have no say in it," Shido muttered. He felt a cold bar connect with the back of
his head before everything went black.
