Stand for Love Ch. 01

"Adrian!" His aunt's voice filled the whole house.

Adrian quickly without wasting his time rushed downstairs to the living room. He found all the masters in the living room in pajamas. They were supposed to be in bed. Whatever had made them to wake up must have been pretty important but maybe deadly too.

Adrian ran to the living only to discover that they seemed mad, all of them. Jake was seated on the couch leaning on his clenched fists, Cynthia was leaning to a wall looking at Adrian like she wanted to eat him alive, Todd was on the couch holding his son tightly and Jane was looking at Adrian ready to strike.

"Ma'am," Adrian muttered, his heart already racing.

Before Adrian could even settle down he was backhanded across the face sending him flying to the glass table in the middle of the living room. This time he was not lucky as he landed on his nose and he could already feel blood coming out of his nose. It was really painful. He slowly got up holding his bloody nose.

"What did I do?" Adrian cried.

"You have the guts to ask me that?" Jane snapped. "Don't play innocent here because your game is over. I'll make sure that you suffer for what you have done."

"I haven't done anything wrong," Adrian sobbed. "I have done everything that you've instructed me."

"Did I instruct you to seduce Nicholas, you whore?" Jane yelled, slapping Adrian across the face.

Adrian was surprised, he was done for.

"I swear I haven't tried to seduce him." Adrian cried. "All I do is taking him his lunch. That's all. That thought has never even crossed my mind. I would never seduce him knowing that he's Jake's fiancé. I promise...me..."

"Shut the fuck up!" Jake finally spoke, getting up furiously from the couch. "I told you to take lunch to him not to open your stinking little ass to him."

"I did no such thing," Adrian cried. "I specifically followed your instructions and..."

Before Adrian could even express himself, Jake held his hair so tightly it. This was the tightest his hair had ever been held and it hurt a thousand times over.

"Did I tell you seduce my boyfriend?" Jake snapped, dragging him by his hair. "Did I?" He yelled.

"No," Adrian cried. "I didn't do that either. Please, you are hurting me."

"Good," Todd yelled. "It's good to know that you are hurting because that pain is nothing compared to what..." Todd furiously grabbed Adrian's jaws and squeezed them as hard as he could.

Adrian's mouth was on fire. His uncle had a powerful grip on his jaws it felt like it was being ripped apart.

"Now, how is that for pain?" Todd yelled.

Adrian couldn't speak because he couldn't move his jaws. The tears and the muffled cries were able to speak for him. He knew Nicholas would one day be the death of him. He didn't even know who told them what they were saying. Nicholas betrayed him, he had promised to keep it a secret.

"I just don't know what made you think that Nicholas could get attracted to you." Jane yelled, adding to his pain. "Yuck! So disgusting,"

"Don't worry, honey." Todd Laughed. "We'll teach him a good lesson. The last thing he'll remember will be being beaten for being a whore."

Adrian's muffled cries increased as Jake held on to his hair tightly and Todd squeezed his mouth so tightly, painfully and mercilessly. Then just like that, all of them let go at the same time and threw him on the hard floor. He hit his nose again, leaving some drops of blood on the tiles.

The sound that came out of Adrian's mouth was unbearable. It filled the whole house. It was a cry for help and salvation. For a moment he thought his voice box had broken. He wailed as loud as he could. It was really painful. He didn't know whether he would survive it.

"Hmmmm," Todd chirped. "I never thought in my wildest dreams you would do that. I'll make you regret it."

Todd then took Adrian by the hair and pulled on it so hard. Adrian thought his body tissues had ripped. His whole head was in an excruciating pain. His Uncle made sure that he gave him a taste of real pain.

"Please," Adrian cried. "Just let me go. I'll do anything but please don't..."

"You should have thought of that before throwing your stinking body at my fiancé." Jake yelled, holding a firm grip on Adrian's hair.

"I didn't do it." Adrian cried like never before.

"Well, you did so stop denying it." Cynthia snapped. "Nicholas himself confirmed it. You've been doing it since you..."

"I swear I didn't. Please, don't hurt me anymore."

"You'll die and that's a promise." Jake said to him with a teasing laugh. "I told you that you shouldn't dare mess with me and now that you have I'll make sure that you pay for it. It will be a punishment which you'll remember for the rest of your stinking life."

"Now, come with me." Jake yelled, dragging him by his hair.

Adrian yelped in pain. On one hand was his nose bleeding so badly and on the other was his head. It was really in pain and he felt he was about to pass out from the pain. He was dragged all the way upstairs to the furthest end, near his room where there was a little room without anything inside. It used to be a store room and it was cold.

"You see that," Jake said pointing to the tiny room. "This is gonna be your new home. You'll stay in there without food or water until all your strength leave you and you eventually die of hunger. That way, I won't have your dirty blood on my hands. I hope in your next life you'll learn never to mess with me again."

"Please," Adrian begged. "I'll die in there."

"That's the idea." Todd laughed. "You'll be with your stupid wretched parents. We are just doing you a favor. You should be thanking us for that."

"Please, I am your..."

"Don't you fucking say that," Jake snapped, throwing him to the floor. At least Adrian's hair was free but he had a splitting headache, his hand was blood and his nose too.

"You'll stay in there alone, without any food or water. You won't see anybody else until you've learnt your mistake."

Adrian was not even given a chance to speak as he felt a sharp pain in his stomach. The sharp pain caused by Jake's powerful kick in his stomach. In a matter of seconds he was wincing in pain, excruciating pain but Jake continued kicking him hard everywhere. Adrian was crying but all the evil family did was laugh out aloud. His whole body was in pain. He knew that pain was gonna last for a long time especially with the fact that he was not gonna be given any painkillers.

"Please," Adrian yelped. "Have mercy on me."

"Mercy," Jane yelled. "Mercy," She said as she used her foot on him. She literally strangled him with her foot. With the foot on his neck, Adrian struggled to breath and more strength left him. When she withdrew her leg, Adrian coughed weakly. As he coughed, his whole body spasmed in pain.

"Please," Adrian pleaded lying on the tiled floor, blood coming out of his nose and a splitting headache.

"Shut up." Jake yelled. "I hope in your next life you'll think twice before crossing my path."

Adrian was once again gripped by his hair and thrown into the room. He heard them laughing and cursing before the door shut and he heard the key clicking. He folded himself on the cold floor and cried of pain and torture he was going through. This was the mother of all punishments he had been given.

He was in pain, his nose was bleeding and his whole body hurt especially his head and stomach. He knew it was only a matter of time before his whole body gave up. It was just a matter of time before he reunited with his mother.

His nose was still bleeding, his hand was bloody and some parts of his clothes. He couldn't even reach his nose to stop the bleeding. What was the point? He was gonna die anyway, might as well make it quick.

Adrian was alone in the room. The only sound he heard was the echo of his sobs. He was so cold and he felt so miserable. His death was definitely near than he thought. Had he not met Nicholas none of this would have happened.

Adrian cried and cried until he felt his whole face flooded but he still cried than before. He was not wailing but the pain was excruciating and he knew he was not gonna survive this. This was it for Adrian Wilson. And then it all came to a halt for Adrian Wilson, goodbye cruel world.

Adrian cried, mixed with pain and blood. His mother had told him that he needed to live for the sake of some guy. In the situation he was in, no one would save him.

"I'm sorry, mother," Adrian whispered, more tears rushing down his face. "I don't think I'll be able to survive and fulfill your wish. We'll soon be reunited. I...I love you so...much..."

Adrian really had no strength left anymore. He felt his eyes get so heavy. This was it for him. Adrian slowly closed his eyes ready to leave the cruel world behind.

Was this the end for Adrian?
