Sorry guys this story is trash so I'm sorry if it sucks. Cause like it does...

Also if anyone has any ideas for some stories I'd love to here them! Thanks so much!

Yum! This frosting is so good!!" I giggle.

My mother smiled at me. "Why don't you finish making daddy's birthday cake while I get cleaned up and wrap his presents." I nodded excitedly and picked the pipping bag up.

"I hope daddy likes it!"

My mother's smile almost faltered. I tilt my head. "Mommy?" I question. She looks sad. Did I say something to hurt her feelings?

My mother blinked a couple of times, her hand instantly pulling down her long sleeve shirt. Is she cold?

"I'm sure he'll love it..."

My mother walked off and left me alone.

I sat there on the counter stool for a second, confused.

Mommy...?

Well... maybe it was nothing then...

I give the frosting bag a squeeze and watch the frosting ooze out.

I gave a fit of laughter at the hilarity of it.

I begin to hum a silly tune as I squirted the frosting all over the cake.

However upon making a rather weird circle of sorts with a design in the middle the frosting started to glow.

My mouth fell open and I looked up, staring at a strange tall man. He had black hair and sharp nails.

He wore all black and his eyes seemed rather bright for someone so... dark?

Nevertheless I hopped off the stool and padded over to him. "Who are you?" I asked.

He looked down at me, shocked. "Did you not summon me?" He questioned. I tilted my head. "Are you one of daddy's friends?"

The silence that ensued annoyed me. "Mommy's here if you wanna talk to her. I'm making daddy a cake. See!" I turned to point where the cake sat on the counter.

The mans eyes flicked over to where I was pointing and he sighed. "So it was by mistake you summoned me? How old are you anyways, you look like a baby."

"I'm six! My names Matias. What's your name?" The man knelt down to me, almost smiling. "You're cute..." He laughed. "But hasn't your mother ever told you not to talk to strangers?"

I shook my head. "Me and mommy never get to leave the house because daddy will get mad. He always yells at mommy... I feel bad sometimes because he hits her..."

I let my head fall, frowning. "Daddy can be mean but if we try to leave he gets more angry and starts shouting really loud. It's scary..."

The man reached out to me, grabbing my chin and tilting my head up. "I'll tell you what. Because you're in need of my protection I'll give you my contract."

He lets go of my chin and I tilt my head in question. "Contract? What's that?" The man laughs. "Whenever you are in danger or feel scared draw my sign and I'll come."

"Sign? What's that?" I question. The man sighed. "Do I have to draw it for you?"

I smile. Draw?! Yes!!! I love pictures! "Yes draw me a picture please!!"

The man shook his head and stood up, grabbing a napkin and pencil from the counter and drawing something on it. A symbol or sign of sorts.

"There, draw this exact sign when you need me." He handed me the napkin and smiled. "Goodbye Matias." With that the doorbell rings and I look over to the door, wondering who it was. But when daddy walks in I turn back to the strange man only to find him gone.

Huh? Where'd he go. I wanted to play with him...

I shrug, maybe he left.

"John..." my mother's voice doesn't sound too happy.

Daddy looks at her, taking a drink from something in a brown paper sack.

"We made you a cake." She states. Daddy grunts, walking over to her. "For your birthday I had Matias pick out a present for you. He's very anxious for you to see it, why don't we eat some cake then open presents."

My father slammed the brown bag against the edge of the counter. My mother gave a small yelp and I grew scared.

"Did my own wife get me anything? Or is she too ungrateful? You know I think I should pleasure myself since it's my birthday."

He moved toward mommy, grabbing one of her wrists and pushing her up against the wall. His other hand slid up her shirt.

"John not now, Matias is here!" She hurriedly exclaimed.

Daddy got angry and smacked her. "Shut up and pleasure me woman!!" He shouted.

Mommy was crying, which in turn made me cry. Is she hurt? I'm scared!!!Is daddy going to hurt her? I don't know what to do!!!

"Matias go to your room." She stated. I shook my head. "No! I want mommy!" I shouted. She held back more of her tears. "Mommy will come tuck you in after me and daddy talk. Can you go wait for me in your room?"

I squeeze my hands together, wadding the napkin up. "O-okay..." she smiles. "Good boy."

Daddy then starts grabbing at her.

I turn and run, getting into my room and crouching in the corner. Daddy is scary.

I wish I had someone to be with... mommy is busy and daddy is mad so I can't bother him.

Oh I know! That man from earlier!! I straighten out the crumpled napkin and grab my coloring book. He said all I had to do is draw this sign and he'd come back.

I laugh as I begin to doodle the sign.

In mere seconds after completion the room glows.

After the glow dissipates and as my eyes adjust I look up to see the tall man standing there. I jump up, excited.

"You came!!" I exclaim.

He bent down to my level. "I said to call me when you were in danger. Not to play around. I got things to do kid."

I frowned. "But mommy and daddy are doing things and they sent me away..." the man sighed and grabbed me, picking me up and placing me on my bed.

"What kinda of things?" He asked. I shrugged. "Ah john!!!" My mother voice cries out and I look at the door.

"Oh, I see... how unruly." The man stated. I stand up on my bed. "That's why I want you!!" I smiled and jumped up, throwing my arms around the man.

"Woah! Careful now."

I laughed. "Oh I have an idea!! Let's play with my stuffed animals!!"

I quickly wriggled my way to the ground and pulled the man along to the stuffed animals littering my floor.

"This is rainbow! And piggy! Oh this ones my favorite! His name is mess! Mommy named him that! What's your name?!"

The man sighed, regarding me. Finally he sat himself down and smiled.

"I'm Valac."

"Matias, if all you wanted was to play house then don't summon me." Valac complained.

I gave a pout. "Mommy And Daddy are at a Christmas party and I was lonely..." I explain. Valac sighs and pulls the blanket up over me.

"Go to bed. Humans need their rest so they can be energetic."

I yawn. "Ah But Valac, I'm not tired!" I whine. He sighs. "Yes you are, you've just yawned." He counters. I pout. "Read me a bed time story!" I childishly demand.

Valac sighs. "That's not my job kid."

I sit up. "But I can't got to sleep without one!!" Tears welled up in my eyes, causing Valac to panic slightly.

"Dammit I'm a demon not a babysitter!" He curses under his breath before grabbing a book and opening it up.

"If I read it then you must sleep." I smile happily, laying back down in my bed. "Yep yep yep!" I cheer.

Valac rolls his eyes but begins to read the book.

Word by word I begin to fall into a state of sleepiness.

As I feel myself drifting I reach out and grab Valac's hand. "Stay... forever..." I mumble out, my mind finally giving in to sleep.

*3 years later*
"Valac!!" I dive into his arms, burying my face into his chest. "I missed you so much!!" I cry.

His arms circle around me. "It's only been 4 hours since we last saw each other." He explains. I bite my lip. "I know but... but I missed you so much!! Stay the night with me please!"

Valac sighed annoyedly. "Why should I? You're an annoying little brat who calls me for some simple task as loneliness! Humans are despicable!"

I hug him tighter. "I love you Valac..." it's silent and I pull away. "I don't want you to go!" He stares at me, shocked. "You love me?" He questioned.

I smiled and nodded. "Of course! Valac is super nice! And he plays with me! You also always make sure I'm okay! What's not to love about Valac?!"

He sighed... "you still surprise me kid... alright I'll stay."

I smiled brightly and pulled him toward my bed. I crawled in and patted the spot next to me.

Valac hesitated but with one glance at me he slid in. I covered us up and then curled up next to Valac.

Grabbing his hand I held it close to me. "I like it when we sleep together! I feel really safe!"

"Yeah well don't get used to it..." Valac grumbled. I laughed a bit and let the silence overtake us.

My mind wandered. "Valac... do you think mommy and I will ever be safe from daddy? Sometimes he gets too drunk and starts breaking things or hitting us..."

Valac looked at me, a bit angered. "He hurts you?" He asked. I bite my lip. "Only happened once. I tried telling him about you and he didn't believe me. He said I was psychotic. What does that mean?"

Valac sighed. "It means you shouldn't talk about me to anyone. I'm your friend and your friend only. Okay? Our friendship is a secret. You wouldn't want me to read bedtime stories to other little kids would you?"

I gasped. "Ah definitely not!! You can only be my friend!!" Valac laughed. "Exactly. Now get some sleep you energetic little creature."

I snuggle into Valac's arms. "Night night!"

With that I'm drifting off to sleep but Valac's voice echoes in my ears. "Matias... I think I love you too..."

* 2 year later.*
"Bye Sam..." I watch as my friend Sam waves goodbye from on the side walk. I close the front door and turn back around to face mother and father.

I brought my friend home today and father wasn't too happy about it. "Go to your room Matias. Think about what you've done!" My mother stated.

I felt my chin tremble. I didn't like it when my mother got angry at me. Especially if it was for my father's sake.

I'd learned that bringing people over without properly telling my parents meant that it was a risk that my father's behavior would be seen and reported.

I didn't understand why my mother was protecting him...

I slowly walked to my room. I leaned against the door, pushing it closed.

I let my tears fall. Everyone at school thinks I'm a loser. Sam just moved here and I thought... just maybe he and I could be friends.

After today I don't think he'll ever talk to me again...

My father yelled at us and then promptly told Sam to never speak to me or anyone else about what happened today.

"Crying again?" Ah!! I spun around to find Valac standing in my room.

More tears fell down. Valac is my only friend!!

I ran to him, pushing my way into his arms. "I don't understand!! What did I do wrong?" I bawled.

Valac sighed and grabbed my chin, forcing my head upwards.

"Silly little boy." He smirked at me and leaned down, licking my cheek with a tear still rolling down it.

"You have such salty tears... you'd think you'd have run dry by now. All these years of crying and you're still able to make them... astounding."

He let go of my chin and I stumbled backward, bewildered. I held my cheek and stared at Valac. "What was that for?" I asked.

Valac crosses his arms and rolled his eyes. "You aren't very bright are you? You're quite oblivious, even with such circumstances..."

He walked over and sat on my bed. "So, tell me, why are you crying?"

Ah... don't remind me... my shoulders fall forward as I sigh. "I brought my first friend home today... he's new in town and since everyone else avoids me I thought he'd give me a chance. But they yelled at us... my parents... now I don't think Sam likes me anymore."

I walked over to Valac and sat beside him. "What's wrong with me? Everyone at school thinks I'm weird... do you think I'm weird?" I looked up at Valac.

He smirked. "Of course you are." I frown, standing up. "You're not suppose to agree!!" I exclaim, rather hurt that he thinks such things.

Valac laughed. "But that's what I like about you. You're different than the other humans..." My eyes widen. "Really? You think so?" Valac's eyes seemed to catch mine and I saw something darken inside of them.

He stepped toward me. "I really do." I feel myself entranced by those words. Valac places his hands at my waist, sliding them down to my butt.

He pulls me closer so our fronts are touching.

I look up at him, awed. What's he doing?

"You should never change Matias. All you need is me. You see I've grown very attached to you. I don't think I could ever share you with anyone else, even a mere human."

What's he saying?? Valac leans down, gently brushing his hand across my face. I stare up at him, waiting. What's he going to do?

"You should be mine already. Don't you agree?" I find myself nodding my head. "If I could be yours then I–" Valac places a finger over my lips to silence me.

"Close your eyes." I follow orders, closing them softly. My lips part and my breathing gets heavier as I focus on what he might do.

Soon I can feel his breath hitting my face before something is placed on my lips.

What is he doing? I go to open my eyes however my door handle giggles. I begin to panic and my eyes fly open just as my door swings open itself. Valac is gone and all that's there is my mother standing in my doorway.

She gives me a funny look and I realize
I'm standing there with my lips parted weirdly.

I blush, laughing. "Ah! Just messing around is all." I lie. She shakes her head and walks over to me. "You've always been so weird... I can hear you talking to yourself at night Matias. Is everything okay?"

Crap! Can she hear me talking to Valac?! But he's a demon, they can't see him unless he makes himself noticeable. There are times when his projection is seen by me but not others.

How do I explain this?! She'll never believe me if I told her the truth!! "I know your father is a bit short tempered. He's done a few things that a father should never do but if we destroy the relationship with him now I fear we may only worsen things. It's best if you stop bringing friends over to our house. And don't ever talk to anyone about anything that happens in here either. Can you do that?"

I sigh, nodding my head. "Yes mother..."

*3 years later*
I slammed my fist into my bedroom wall. "Let me out!!" I shouted. "Shut up you whore of a son! I saw the way that teacher was looking at you!!" My father shouted from the other side of the door.

I crouched down, covering my ears.

Not good. Dad is angry. He came home after my parent teacher conference and blew up.

My grades had been slipping in school because lately my father's temper has gone way out of control. He has resorted to hitting me and not my mother anymore.

He said that because I'm 15 I'm now old enough to handle a few beatings. At parent teacher conferences I was required to go. When my father heard about my grades being so low he insisted he be the one to take me.

My teacher mentioned he was worried I may be having issues at home and my father instantly suspected me of telling him things I shouldn't of.

My homeroom teacher is very worried for me and it's because of this that my father has locked me in my room.

He thinks I'm seducing the teacher so I can use him to get my father arrested.

He exploded when we got home.

Agh!

I don't know what to do anymore. He's relentless.

He's been smacking me around more lately and when he goes after mom I try my best to fight back but it only makes my beatings worse.

But right now he's locked me in my room for some odd reason. Usually he'd be beating the crap out of me about now. So why the sudden change?

I fear for my mother now... what will he do while I'm locked up in here? I need to get out!!!

Ah! Valac! Perhaps he can help.

I quickly draw the sign, watching as he gracefully appears. "Valac!!" I desperately cry. He looks at me, seemingly surprised. "That's strange, after 3 months you've finally decided to summon me again?" He distastefully responds.

I felt a pang of hurt. For those 3 months things has been bad... Dad had locked me up in the basement for a long while. Meanwhile he stayed upstairs and forcefully pleasured himself with mom before coming down to beat me. I was in no condition to ask for help from Valac. I told myself I was stronger than my father. That he couldn't truly kill my spirt.

"You said to call you when I need you. Well I need you!! They've locked me inside my room. I need to get out!!! Can't you help?"

Valac sighed, leaning up against my wall. "What am I suppose to do about it? We're you being a trouble maker?" His yellow eyes flicked up at me as he smirked.

I felt the heat rush to my face. "I... I wasn't being bad!" I shout. He laughs. "Oh? That's not what I heard. I heard you've been seducing the teacher."

Valac wagged his finger at me. "That's very naughty Matias. Using him to get your father put away? I feel betrayed."

What? "I-I wasn't using him! He was just worried! Please Valac help me!" Valac hums, tapping his finger against his lips.

"Oh I have an idea!" He walked toward me. Huh what's he doing?

With one hand he grabs my wrist and pins it above me on the wall.

"Hey what are you–?!" Valac leans in and presses his lips against mine. My eyes shoot wide open.

I struggle against him but with my arm pinned above me it made it difficult.

Taking my free hand I go to shove Valac away but he grabs it and holds it, effectively stopping me.

I squeeze my eyes shut, panicking.

Why's he kissing me?!! 

Suddenly I feel his tongue licking at my lips.

"Ngh!" I moan out.

Ah! No way! Did I just moan?!

Valac pulls away, chuckling. "Hm, it seems I'm not the only one to be excited." I look up at him.

What's he saying? I don't understand... why... Valac leans back in, kissing me a little more gently. My eyes fall closed and my body begins to relax.

This is nice actually...

Valac lets my arms go and they fall to my side. He pulls back from the kiss but moves to the side where he kisses my cheek. "Matias..."

His voice was low and sent me into a world of oblivion.

The way my name rolled off his tongue, I wanted more... I reach forward, latching onto the front of his shirt. "Valac..." he pulls back and we look at each other.

"I–"

My mother's scream rips through the haze and pulls me back into reality. "Ah!" I push Valac away. "I need to go!!" I turn away slightly and blush.

What was I about to say?!!!

"Of course..." Valac says, waltzing to the door and pushing it open. "If that's all then I'll be going..." he quickly fades away and I sigh.

He could of stayed and we could of talked afterwards... after all, I wanted to asked about that kiss...

Why did he kiss? And why was I wanting more? Why did I like it? I do like Valac but I couldn't possibly like him in that way could I?

I shake the thought away and charge into the kitchen.

I can see my father strangling my mother.

Adrenaline rushes over me. I shove my father off of mom and punch him. "Stay away from her!!" I shout.
