luke scrunched his face in disgust at the mention of a ‘papa’ .

“ the monster was human before. huh I’m guessing one of their ‘experiments’ went rogue ?”

“also what’s Hawkins?”

[・○・𝙻𝚄𝙺𝙴 @seesdOts]

// there’s a part of me that wants to make a Nicky so bad cause I relate to him too much 😭

[・○・𝙻𝚄𝙺𝙴 @seesdOts]

he’s exhausted like brutally exhausted .

but he just can’t sleep .

[・○・𝙻𝚄𝙺𝙴 @seesdOts]

Or that his breathing started to pick up.

“I can’t -”

why was it hard to breathe? did he want to breathe? what if he stopped?

no he needed to help his friends. he needed to stop sigsby and stackhouse. he needed-

“d-dad”

[・○・𝙻𝚄𝙺𝙴 @seesdOts]

that he believed everything.

and in the little time they had together, made the boy feel safe. something he hadn’t felt in a while.

luke even compared him a bit to his own now deceased father.

mind racing he didn’t realize that he was clutching his chest.

[・○・𝙻𝚄𝙺𝙴 @seesdOts]

repeating every agonizing moment. playing out all the sharp hits, stinging words, and brutal tests.

. . . but tim never did those things.

No, tim took him in and tried to get him help. gave luke his jacket and a hug that he desperately needed. he cleaned him up and told him -

[・○・𝙻𝚄𝙺𝙴 @seesdOts]

brushing the hand off his shoulder, he cautiously took a step back. everything felt like it was too much.

he wanted to trust him so bad, needed it even. but his head kept going to every single adult that hurt or took advantage of him.

[・○・𝙻𝚄𝙺𝙴 @seesdOts]

Luke stared at tim, searching.

using what little strength he had left, he had to see if the man in front of him truly meant what he said.

. . . honestly if the man did, would luke truly believe him ?

“ you’re not lying . ”

he let out a shaky breath.

[Tim Jamieson @THEN1GHTKNOCKER]

I promise you that, Luke. I will do everything in my power to help you." His eyes would lock with the kids. "But you need to trust me. Trust that I want to help you. That I'm not going to hurt you like her, or Stackhouse, or any of those other monsters."

“ guess these monsters are the same when it comes to manipulating kids ”

giving a sympathetic smile he shrugged

“ I don’t think I could be as strong as you . that monster of yours . . .”

a chill went down his spine.

“ i- is he gone ? “

[・○・𝙻𝚄𝙺𝙴 @seesdOts]

he was probably jumping to conclusions but he was just so 𝙨𝙘𝙖𝙧𝙚𝙙 .

[・○・𝙻𝚄𝙺𝙴 @seesdOts]

revealing the emotion he was holding back.

finally he looked tim in the eyes.

“ and I won’t go back ”

eyes stinging with tears he laughed bitterly.

“ why did I think you would be different ” -

[・○・𝙻𝚄𝙺𝙴 @seesdOts]

“ I will run ”

he continued to look straight ahead refusing to look at the adult next to him.

“ I don’t care if she is telling the truth.

what she’s doing is insane and I need to save my friends. ” his voice cracking .

[・○・𝙻𝚄𝙺𝙴 @seesdOts]

“ yeah no shit ” he replied. trying to keep his voice from showing the oncoming panic he was trying to hide .

chest tight, he grabbed at his arm hard to try and ground himself.

he refused, terrified honestly , to see what tim was thinking. -

[Tim Jamieson @THEN1GHTKNOCKER]

...it's a lot more drastic than any of us could have ever thought."

[・○・𝙻𝚄𝙺𝙴 @seesdOts]

“ to save the world . . . apparently ”

he frowned .

“ that’s . . . terrifying I’m uh I’m sorry that happened to you . “

he looked down.

“I kinda understand. It sucks.”
