Alec's dad beats him endlessly, "Tú quieres ser un niño pues te voy a tratar como uno" Alec's dad announced. "Ya para de llorar, a menos que quieras que te golpee otra vez?!" Alec's dad screamed.
Alec's dad wasn't always like this, he was nice and kind to Alec and he would treat Alec so well but, when Alec was 7, Alec came out as trans to him and that made him scared, he was told that trans people kill themselves so he thought if Alec was trans it would make him kill himself Alec's dad was terrified that would happen he kept trying to convince to not be trans but that wouldn't work, he tried more and more but nothing he did worked he got rather annoyed at that but mainly he was scared of losing Alec, that and the stress of his multiple jobs he had to work to support him and Alec, he starting drinking.
One day, he went home drunk and saw Alec awake in his clothes, he slapped Alec, he felt so bad, he repeatedly apologized and swore to never put a hand on Alec again. Alec's dad started to tell him that he couldn't be a boy, and stuff like that but Alec didn't care which made Alec's dad furious and hit Alec again and again until he realized what he did and apologized repeatedly while crying, he tried to quit drinking, which succeeded but he had to get another job because he got fired from his main job which messed him up because there were weeks without a main job with 3 part times jobs but he eventually got a new main job but this job was hard on him and he had to eventually quit his other jobs to focus on the new one.
Alec's dad started to drink when he couldn't take the job which became a constant thing he still did not hurt Alec but that peace was un done by Alec cutting his own hair short Alec's dad was angry and drunk and after a while of beating Alec up he stop caring in total, he convinced himself he was help Alec and he eventually stopped drinking for a while. When the abuse first happened, Alec tried to fight back but eventually he just took it. Also when it started, he cried uncontrollably but that made it worse cause every time he cried his dad would hit him harder each time, claiming "Se eres un hombre actúa como uno,para de llorar!" Which made him cry more.
He wished he had a mom to tell him everything is alright and a mom to protect him but his mom died when he was way too young to remember her and things were alright until he came out as trans to his dad.
Alec would come in middle school with bruises all over his body everyday, sometimes they would be new ones. no one noticed, not one person noticed and if they did they didn't say anything, not even the teachers, there goes that job, he wished that someone did notice, anyone. It got so bad that he lost hope of getting out of the situation. He still got his best friend, Elliot. Elliot was the only thing keeping him going but good things always come to an end, in 7th grade Elliot had a growth spurt and he got a lot taller than Alec. Alec started to see Elliot as his dad, because of the abuse that his dad gave to him, made him scared that Elliot was going to hurt him so, he would bully and hurt Elliot to protect himself, but then it slowly turned into not protecting himself but just being a jerk to Elliot because of little thing that angered him.
