Tw: mentions of sexual abuse, cutting, panic attack/flashback
"No- No no no- not again-" His breathing was fast and uneven.
"Alexander!~"
"NO NOT AGAIN"
"Alex!"
"NO! PLEASE!"
"Come out baby!"
"NO I DON'T WANT TO!"
"But you like it! Don't lie!"
"NO I DON'T PLEASE NO!"
"ALEX!"
John shook him.
"DON'T TOUCH ME!" He screamed.
"ALEX LISTEN TO ME!"
"NO NO NO GET AWAY!"
"But you like it, you fucking slut."
"NO GET AWAY!"
Lafayette and Hercules burst in.
"What's going on?" They said in unison.
"It's Alex- he won't respond! He keeps screaming 'no' and I don't know what to do!"
"Found you!" He was dragged out from his hiding place and pinned down.
"GET THE FUCK OFF OF ME! STOP IT!" Alex held himself tightly.
"Alex, mon amie listen to me. It is not real," Laf started calmly.
"GET OFF! STOP!"
"Alex, you need to listen. Focus on my voice. It is not real," He tried again.
"Why do you keep this from me? You know you want—it is not real."
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT'S NOT REAL?!"
"I think I am starting to get through to him," Laf took a deep breath. "Alexander, listen to me. This is nothing but a flashback."
"F-Flashback? No- no stop lying to me! GET OFF!"
"Alex please listen to Laf," Hercules added in. "Me, Laf, and John are here."
"J-John?"
"Yes Alex, I'm here- listen to me- It's not real, do you understand me?"
"But it feels so real-"
"I know, but trust me, it's not," John reassured.
"But- but it feels so real-"
"I know hun, but it's not."
After a few minuets of calming him down, he had fallen asleep in John's lap.
"Thank you both so much for helping," John said, keeping quiet so Alex could rest.
"Of course, mon amie."
"We'd be happy to help anytime."
"Thank you. You two can go back to bed now if you'd like," John offered, and they gladly accepted.
Alex was okay now, he was calm and resting. No more past to taunt him in his unconscious state. They were okay.
I'm running on 4 hours of sleep and a lot of caffeine so that's great lol. I kind of like to base Alex off of some stuff I've been through. Of course I tone it up some for the sake of the plot. Be back with another short later, see ya.
