《The Broken Doll (Brahms x Reader)》Chapter 8
Advertisement
Brahms' POV:
I decided to leave y/n to finish her breakfast and went to a room located under the stairs. In the closet, I open a secret door. Now trailing through the darkness of the inside of the walls. I climb up and enter into my second home. My safe place.
I needed to burn off some steam. I hated my parents so much, but why was it so hard for me to accept that they're gone? Even in the afterlife, they had control over me. I still wanted the rules, to use the doll, to speak like an 8-year-old even when I didn't have to anymore. When y/n asked me why I talked like that, it reminded me of who I am. I'm not the 8-year-old boy my family desperately tried to make me. I needed to grow up but never had the chance to. A majority of my life, spent in hiding. I was practically a prisoner in my own home.
I walked over to my desk where Brahmsie was laying and sat down. Some parts of him couldn't be recovered so, small pieces of his face was missing though he was still recognizable. And it was all because of that bastard, Cole. I'm glad he's dead...Although I was still sad over Greta, a part of me could be at ease knowing that he couldn't hurt her anymore. She has Malcolm now, and I have my y/n.
I still remember that day. I pummeled Cole to the ground, took a chunk of my doll and shoved it into his neck. Pushing into his skin and through the jugular, deeper and deeper. I heard his breathing grow coarse and then come to a stop. Nothing but a lifeless body under me. As Greta and Malcolm started running for the door, I stopped them. I couldn't have them run off and tell anyone what happened. I offered to give a half a million in pounds. That was pocket change to me. My parents, before their "trip" gave me all their savings. Enough for me to live in this place forever. They just stared at each other, communicating with their eyes. I could tell they didn't believe me. I showed them the safe, gave them the money and they drove off with it. I waited and waited for police to show up and arrest me. I doubted they would keep shut but I decided to give them the money anyways. It was worth a try. Months passed and nothing. They didn't say a word. I took this as a second chance.

I touched Brahmsie's face, it felt rough beneath my fingertips from all the cracks. I like him better this way; broken. He wasn't perfect anymore, and felt more like me. Was I broken too?

A Castle in a Teacup
One might say that to anger forces beyond the ken of fragile breakable mortals is a bad idea, others might say that meddling in dark forces with little chance of gain is also a bad idea, they would both be right by on all counts but they forget to mention also how incredibly stupid combining both of those things are. Stupid people don’t last so long on the mystic side of things, normal folks who wander over to the other side have a tendency to do one of two things, either A. figure out that the best thing to do is keep their head down and not draw attention from any entity that refers to humanity as “you mortals” , or B. something horrifying happens to them. As you may have guessed I fell into the second category, mostly because I thought there was a third option. See I though there must be an option C, an option where I got to end up not as some shitty back ally wizard cowering at the chance of discovery, praying that one of my wards or spells wouldn’t be noticed by something that goes bump in the night. No I would be the one who rose above all that. I would never have to be afraid. Well I made a good attempt at it that’s for damn sure, but unfortunately for me it turns out there is not an option C. At least not for me…
