Chapter Three:
-Joey woke up. He was outside at his apartment. He hurt so badly he wanted to die. Everything on him hurt. He felt tainted and dirty... He slowly stood up and yelped. His ass hurt like hell. His book bag was lying next to him so his dad must have kicked him out. He bent down and picked it up and yelped again, clutching his side. His ribs were definitely broken, again... Joey limped outside to the park. There he lay down under his favorite oak tree and went to sleep.
-When he woke up again, it was daylight. School started in fifteen minutes! Joey, as quickly as his broken body would take him, rushed to the school, ran into the bathroom to check his reflection, and flipped his hood down.
Oh no! How am I supposed to go to school like this? I look like shit.
And shit was just an understatement... Joey had dark circles under his black and purple eyes. His lip was split and bleeding, he had a giant bruise on the side of his face, and rivulets of blood were running down his face from the giant cut on his head where he hit the refrigerator. He couldn't go to class like this... He would skip. Joey made his decision, flipped his hood back on, and went back to the park; what he didn't know was that a certain blue-eyed CEO had seen him leave and decided to follow him.
-Seto followed Joey all the way to the park. There, he hid behind a bush and saw Joey sit down under a large oak tree. Joey looked around to make sure no one was coming, and flipped his hood down. Seto almost cried out in horror. Joey had black and blue bruises all over his face, he had a bloody lip, a black eye, and his head was bleeding, maybe more than yesterday... Seto saw Joey reach a hand to the back of his neck and flinch as he took out the three shards of glass that Seto had seen yesterday. Then, Joey looked around again before taking his sweatshirt off, followed by his tee shirt. Seto nearly fainted. There were cute, scratches, bruises, stains, scars, and anything else you could imagine all over Joey's body. There was a horrifying amount of blood soaked into Joey's shirt. But the most horrifying thing was what was on Joey's arm. There, deeply cut, blood flowing freely down onto Joey's shirt on the ground, was the words: "F's whore." They looked like they had been carved into his skin with a knife. Joey tenderly touched it and flinched.
"Damn you! Why did you have to do that! If Seto ever saw this... Well, he wouldn't love me anyway..."
Joey sighed and got up. He swayed slightly.
"Whoa, I really need to get something to eat... I haven't had anything to eat in three days."
Then Joey swayed some more and fainted. Seto immediately ran out and caught him. Then, he rushed him to the Kaiba Mansion.
