Third Person POV

The morning air was crisp outside of Monster High as Y/n walked toward the school entrance, unaware of the group of girls waiting for him. As soon as they spotted him, Clawdeen stepped forward, her expression stern yet filled with concern.

Clawdeen: "Y/n, we need to talk," she said firmly.

Y/n stopped, shifting nervously.

Y/n: "Uh... about what?"

Frankie crossed her arms, electricity subtly crackling around her.

Frankie: "We saw everything. Last night."

Y/n’s eyes widened, his breath catching. He looked away, shame creeping up his spine.

Y/n: "W-What do you mean?"

Draculaura stepped closer, her voice soft yet firm.

Draculaura: "We followed you home... and we saw what your uncle did to you."

Y/n froze, his shoulders trembling. He clenched his fists before slowly lifting his shirt, revealing the dark bruises littering his torso. The girls collectively gasped, horror evident on their faces.

Y/n "He's been doing this for years," he admitted, his voice barely above a whisper.

The girls instantly cover their mouths, they shocked to know that their friend was being abused. They had no idea that it was this bad, that Y/n's uncle was hurting him this badly.

Y/n: "Ever since my parents died, he's been my only guardian. At first, it was just yelling... but then, it turned into this."

Cleo looked at him, her usual confidence replaced by genuine concern.

Cleo: "Why haven’t you told anyone?"

Y/n gave a bitter chuckle.

Y/n: "Who would believe me? He puts on a nice act for everyone else. Besides, if I told anyone, he’d just make it worse when no one was looking."

The guy flings his arms in the air and frustration before running a hand through his hair. He was clearly trying so hard to hold back the tears. The girls clearly seeing how frustrated this made him.

Ghoulia let out a series of concerned groans, and Frankie translated.

Ghoulia: "You shouldn’t have to live like this." She groans.

Y/n sighed, rubbing his arms.

Y/n: "It’s not just that. He also forced me to get a part-time job, one that I hate. I want to quit, but if I do…" He trailed off, shaking his head.

Hearing this made the girls even more mad. Not only was Y/n being treated poorly by his uncle but was being forced to work while going to school.

Clawdeen growled, her claws extending.

Clawdeen: "I knew I should've ripped him apart last night!"

Lagoona placed a hand on her shoulder.

Lagoona: "We wanted to, trust me. But rushing in would’ve made things worse. We need to help Y/n smartly."

Y/n shook his head.

Y/n: "There’s nothing you can do. I’m stuck."

Frankie exchanged glances with the other girls, and a silent understanding passed between them. Then, she smiled slightly.

Frankie: "Actually, we have an idea."

Y/n blinked. He just turns and looks at them with confused eyes.

Y/n: "What?"

Draculaura clapped her hands together.

Draculaura: "The boys are going on a small trip for the weekend. Why don’t you go with them? It’ll get you away from your uncle, at least for a few days."

Y/n hesitated.

Y/n: "I don't know... I don't want to be a burden."

Clawdeen placed a hand on his shoulder, giving him a reassuring smile.

Clawdeen: "You're not a burden, Y/n. We care about you. And right now, you need to get away from that place."

He looked at their determined faces, his eyes glassy with emotion. For years, he had suffered alone, believing no one would care. But here they were, offering him a way out, even if just for a little while.

Finally, he nodded slowly.

Y/n: "Okay... I'll go."

The girls smiled, relief washing over them. Cleo smirked.

Cleo: "Good. Now, let’s get you packed."

As they walked into Monster High together, Y/n felt something he hadn't in a long time—a glimmer of hope.
