Chapter Text

Benjamin crouched down in front of a cardboard box. It was dirty and looked a little old, and yet there was something mewing at him from the inside. He lifted the lid gently as to not tear it and found a small cat inside. It looked no older than six months.

He smiled sadly at this sight. It hurt his heart to see the little guy in such a state. It was so young. Maybe there was something he could do for it. "Sorry little guy, I can't take you home with me." He poured some water into his hydro flask's lid and set it down in front of the cat. It gladly drank it, looking grateful for every little drop. Benjamin pet the small animal's head gently. "I'll buy you some food later, okay?"

He stood up and walked away from the alley, giving the cat one last glance before focusing on his destination. The cat patiently waited in the box, possibly for their owner to come back.

Benjamin slowly headed up the stairs to his high school, staring blankly at the big letters on the building that spelt out the school's name. That cat was just like him. It had nowhere to go, just like he did. All it has was that old cardboard box, and yet it was making the best of it's situation. Maybe he should do the same.

He opened his locker and found dirty tampons and tissues stuffed inside. A few fell onto him, and he immediately brushed them off using the minimal amount of contact required. Disgust filled his senses. There were some people giggling. Looking around to see who it was, his eyes landed on Girlfriend and that Senpai guy. Figures as much. They were always the ones behind these cruel pranks.

Benjamin picked out his books carefully, ignoring the dried blood on them, and dragged his feet toward his next class. This was going to be an exhausting day.


...


Benjamin let out a hack as his head was slammed against the ground. He could feel small hairs being pulled at by the shoe grinding against his head. There was mop water spilled around him, and his skin began to burn slightly from it.

Girlfriend smirked at the boy on the floor, his coughs and cries being music to his ears. "Maaaan, I'm sick of doing the same stuff to him every single day." When he started to let up with the noise, she pressed her foot down harder and enjoyed the sweet reward she got from it.

"Oh, I have an idea. Open his mouth." Girlfriend stared quizzically at Senpai. "It'll be good, just do it."

Girlfriend shrugged and yanked the boy off the ground by his hair, prying his mouth open like she was asked. Senpai grinned at him, the latter's eyes widening. This wasn't a good sign. Senpai stuck his fingers down his throat, making sure to wriggle them down far enough to trigger a gag reflex.

"Quick! Drop him!" Girlfriend let go of his head and watched him vomit up everything inside of his intestines into the toilet. His throat hurt. His mouth burned. It tasted like acid.

"Ooh! Watch this!" Benjamin felt Girlfriend's foot ram against his head again. He didn't get a chance to breathe before his head was shoved into the vomit water. "Let's see how long you can hold your breath you piece of trash!" She began to slowly count by ones, finding Benjamin's gurgled cries and his flailing arms amusing.

God, if you can hear me,

They laughed at his slowing movements. She let him up to catch his breath, only for Senpai to take a turn and shove him back under once more.

why are you so cruel to your creations?
