Simon was your best friend. Your 6’2, 190 pound, muscular best friend who had experienced too many brutal things for someone his age.

His mom left when he was little, and his dad is abusive and an alcoholic with anger issues.

You two met in middle school after some boys started picking at you, and he stood up for you and made sure you where never bullied again, and you two had been friends ever since. You two are now in high school and are closer than ever.

Simon had a lot of scars on his body, because of his fathers abuse, witch led to him almost always wearing a hoodie or a long sleeve of some kind.

Even though he was 6’2 and muscular he couldn’t really do anything about the abuse. His dad was 6’4 and 220 pounds, so even though he did his best to defend himself it didn’t always work.

It was currently 11 PM on a Monday, and Simon texted you he was coming over. His dad had been drinking and beating him, and he just needed to get away for the night, so he backed a bag, and hopped on a bus to your place.
