Those words made hinders blood run cold as he started to shake. He knew what would happen if he turned to face his father.

“P-papa I was just going to sleep with the pigs for a few days” hinder lied as the hand on his shoulder tightened.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn78pmO8YKt
“Your not going anywhere” his father growled putting the barrel of his hunting rifle to his head. The metal was cold but he knew not to move.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzbyGtFdlF
Hinder closed his eyes knowing his father would shoot him anyways. But the shot never came and the hand disappeared, making hinder drop to the ground before turning around. He was shocked to see Adrian there with his own hunting rifle.

“Now you put that gun down before someone gets hurt” Adrian said his voice having new bravery in it.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1NGSr4mp1
His father obeyed and dropped the gun. An evil glint in his eye sparked as he reached in his pocket while Adrian backed up not noticing. His father looked at Adrian ready to stab him.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XUKIGDOVF
“Adrian look out!” Hinder yelled as he somehow tackled his father to the ground feeling the knife enter his stomach.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVgY9MQoqy
“You brat!” His father pushed him off leaving the knife there before trying to go after Adrian.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEM2s4x4odp
“Sir you been a bad bad boy and someone needs to put you down” Adrian said as he started to hit his father with the butt of his gun.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1QIjz3YaD
It didn’t take long to get himders father to the ground. His face now bloody and bruised as he backed into the corner. Begging for mercy. “Oh no no mercy went out the door the moment you hurt your boy the good lord will frown upon this day but that’s alright I know he will forgive me” and with that he shot his father in the face and dropped the gun.

“Adrian..” hinder called out his cream colored shirt now red from his blood.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡluH7U4PdOa
“Shit…your gonna be okay just stay with me” he rushed to the door and yelled out it. He returns to hinder and held him in his arms.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iaeLYX4sx
“Thank you…for everything..”hinder said slowly, feeling his body get heavy.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNLny5tv5N
Adrian gently put a finger to his lips as he held him while neighbors came over to see what the commotion was all about. They stopped short and gasped seeing the sight of his father and now him. They knew hinder wasn’t going to make it but they couldn’t bear to break that news to Adrian. “We need a doctor…please…” Adrian begged.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYRRGb4PBf
No one moved until a merchant spoke up hobbling into the rooM with them. He heaved his bag off his shoulders and dug around in it before pulling out a vial of red substance.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cK3mxVl8n
“What is that?” Adrian questioned hugging hinder closer.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXiyLLnzDb
“Call it saving his life if you must” he replied, pouring it into himders mouth, rubbing his throat to make him swallow.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF08fapwPd1
They all held his breath as the knife fell from his stomach, the wound somehow healing as he sat up. “What was that disgusting thing?” Hinder asked, coughing.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4ZfBExO3V
“As I said, save your life, no need to thank me or pay me just don’t question it.” The merchant replied and with that he was off into the night.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGerOW80m0
Soon everyone left, leaving Hinder and Adrian alone as he laid against Adrian’s chest while Adrian laid against the wall. “You make me feel safe” hinder said softly.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxgT6gAaUF
Adrian smiled softly as he faced hinder to him. “I couldn’t bear to see you get hurt anymore. Because I…”
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13EXgir4Pg
Hinder tilted his head slightly before gently placing his lips on his. kissing him with what little knowledge he had before pulling away. “I know. I like you to Adrian” hinder replied his face bright with redness as the sun rose up.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvXnwIEZ9j
Adrian smiles as he pulls hinder in again by the shirt kissing him. This went on till the sun chased the darkness away starting a new day. “Come with me” hinder said.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJZZgI1TLN
“Come with you?”
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbixm7Az61y
“Run away with me start a new life.” Hinder explained.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMl6lzR1wR6
Adrian couldn’t believe he was hearing this but he was more than happy to say yes as they packed their things. Hinder hopped on a new horse given to him by his neighbor while Adrian hopped on his own. Hinder didn’t know where they were going. But he knew that with Adrian by his side they can figure out everything. He looked back at him smiling seeing that his mother is packing his horse pack full of food for them. Hours before they left, Hinder somehow found a safe under his fathers bed. It wasn’t locked luckily and it was filled with money with a note addressed to hinder. it was from his mother. And the money was for when he left on his merchant adventurers. Tears formed as he thought that moment over. But soon wiped them away as Adrian trotted beside him.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1FlTqgIn2
“Ready?” Hinder asked
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFt9q4aT4Bx
“Definitely” Adrian replied with a smile.
148Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssgfqPOuBn
And with that they rode off their small village waving and cheering their goodbyes.
