Souls wasting away (Dr. Stein x student reader)

Stitches turn to scares

Reader's P.O.V.

As I tried to keep my cool, Stein was trying to remove my shirt. It was causing me a lot of pain because my shirt was snug on my little body. ¨I need to cut your shirt... Its causing you too much pain.¨ Stein said running to my kitchen to get scissors. ¨Do whatever! Just get this glass out of my back!¨ I said through tears and gritting teeth. When he came back he cut my shirt down the middle. He picked up the tweezers and warned me that this was going to hurt. He carefully pulled out each piece of glass, big and small. In total he pulled out 12 pieces of glass from my back. ¨Some of the cuts need stitches... I will take you to the hospital myself.¨ He put band aids over my cuts, grabbed one of my old blankets, and took me out to his car. When we reached his car, he opened the back seat door, letting me crawl into it. I laid on my stomach to prevent more pain than what I was already in. After 5 minutes of driving we reached the hospital where I received 7 stitches. ¨Someone will have to take these out in a few weeks. Would you like to come back here and get them out or do you know anyone who would take them out at home?¨ The nurse said finishing stitching the last cut. ¨I could come...¨ being interrupted by Dr. Stein. ¨I will do it. There is no need for her to come back here and wait. It's simply to just cut them and pull them out.¨ He put his hand on my shoulder to show he was there for me, the first person in a long time to do this much for me.

After we got back to his car, I sat up front because the pain medicine I had taken was very strong. ¨I'm not letting you stay in your apartment, not alone at least.¨ I looked at him puzzeled. ¨Where will I go then?¨ He looked at me, into my eyes. It seemed like he was trying to see into my empty heart and souless shell I had turned into. ¨You can stay in my guest room. The other students won't think that you are there, but for now we are going to tell Lord Death of this situation.¨ I looked at him and got mad, ¨You can't protect me forever! People will notice when I'm not going to my apartment, when I'm walking to a teacher's house! That will make things worse for me!¨ He sat there and knew what I was saying was the truth, nothing would get better if I stayed at his house. ¨I guess we should fix your window tonight. May I sleep on your couch tonight, I'm not letting you stay there alone...¨ I rolled my eyes, ¨I can't stop you, can I?¨ He giggled and shook his head. ¨We will stop at my house so I can grab some clean clothes. Then I'm making dinner for the both of us. I don't know about you but I haven't ate since lunch.¨ I looked at my stomach, ¨Yea me too... I only have a few things, like tv dinner meals so you may want to grab something if you don't want that.¨

~Time skip of 20 minutes~

We stopped at my teacher's house, he grabbed his clothes, then at the store and brought out 3 bags of food, I'm still sitting in his car as he starts the engine. ¨This is so weird... Why am I the one who deals with all of this crap people put me through?¨ I said mumbling to myself, angry at the world. He looked at me, looked into my eyes once again. ¨Everyone is scared of how you are your own weapon. They can't understand it so they are scared." I looked at him ¨Their words leave me to stitch up my ego. After I take the stitches out, they turn to scares... Nothing can change that!¨ I said letting a single tear roll down my cheek.
