*Abuse warning (Nothing graphic or anything though)*
I lived a generaly bad life, my mother was abused by my father. She often left home, leaving me with him. He wasn't a nice flitz, he was a drunk... He often put me to bed, he did the best he could when he wasn't drunk, which isn't often. He scared me, especially when my mother wasn't home.
But, I used to imagine that there was a creature under my bed, my best friend. She was a comfort to think about, I drew her often. But, I hid the art under my bed, everytime I looked for it, it had disappeared? She was a elegant flitz with a welcoming expression, like a dream. She had beutiful wings and elegant long fur, her nickname was Angel. Or that's what I called her anyways.
It was like every other day in my household. I heard arguing from my parents, and I heard her leave, my mother. I began crying as I drew a picture of Angel. I heard some scratching from under my bed, it scared the mess out of me. I was about to yell for my father, when a flitz appeared. It was Angel. "Oh, Sweetie," she whispered, I gasped. She was real? I ran to her, and hugged her, I need it. She hugged me back, her fur was soft and warm. I realized, as I pulled away, that she held all the drawings I had done. My tears were now elated tears, I hadn't known what to say for a while. "Your real?" I finally asked, "I am," She had a soft voice, "You created me," She nodded, "With your dreams, hope, and faith," She leaned towards me. "I've been here the whole time," She smiled, "I made You! I'm like your mom," She laughed at this, I felt a little embarrassed, "Well, I guess so?" She smiled. "Why hadn't you been out? You know from under my bed?" I asked with curiousity, "I wasn't quite me yet?" She seemed to question herself, "I needed more thought from you," She explained, "I wasnt...?" She couldn't find the words, "I understand," I snorted.
Ever since this night on, Angel visited me every night. She comforted me when mother wasn't there too. She was like a parent to me. I was so happy to have thought of her, if I wasn't for me she wouldn't be her and I wouldn't have anyone.
One day, my father heard me talking to Angel in my room. He stormed in, he asked me who I was talking to. I looked around for Angel, she disappeared? "I was... reading a book," I picked up a random book off the floor and showed him nervously. He snatched it out of my paws, "Read quieter," He sneered and tossed the boom on my bed. I turned around to find Angel sitting 8n front of me, "Where did you go?" I asked her, "I didn't think your father would like me?" She laughed nervously, she was right. "My mom would have like you," I gather some things off the floor and organized it, "My mother was really nice," I said quietly, "You'd love her," I had continued, I sighed sadly, "But, she left, moved out of state," My voice was in a hushed tone. Angel looked at me sadly, she had no words. "That's why you have me?" She said quietly, "Yeah, I know," I sighed and turned to her. "Can I call you mom?"
Wholesome uwu. Very sweet and cute. I'll get your flit done as soon as I can!
