poor choices lead to 𝐛𝐚𝐝 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐬, something he should’ve learned a long time ago. pissing off a dealer was a poor choice, letting it happen more than once was basically a death sentence. he’s learned that much now, though the lesson doesn’t change his current circumstance. locked up in some storage unit somewhere, beaten & bloody & entirely a mess, not to mention the withdrawals. this is not a good time. the concept of being saved had never crossed his mind, the idea that this wasn’t permanent never arising. he’d simply resigned himself to this being his fate, had assumed that he’d be in pain & constantly beaten for the rest of his life. perhaps he’d so easily come to that conclusion with an assumption that the rest of his life wouldn’t be very long at all.
he has no idea how long he’s been there, time not something he bothered to keep track of. the only glimpses of time he got was when someone came in, but he was usually too busy cowering in a corner to look at the light outside & try to work out how long its been since they last came in. & it’s the same when the door opens this time, curled in on himself with his head in his hands, no clue who walked in or why. he could assume the answer to those questions. but then a hand is gentle on his shoulder. the touch has him flinching, whimpering, trying to curl in on himself even more. but the voice, that’s a voice he knows. a voice he trusts. slowly, full of fear, his head raises, tear filled eyes coming to meet hers. he goes to speak, but has no idea what to say, lip quivering as he stares at her. part of him isn’t even convinced this is real, but he forces the words out anyway. “ it’s not ----- not safe for you here. ”
