"Who did this?" ( @nostrangertotragedy )
“What? Oh...” He wasn’t expecting Phoebe to say anything about his black eye, though it shouldn’t have surprised him. This time around, there was little effort made to cover it up; if godfather would have caught him with makeup of all things, it probably would have sparked a whole new fight that Donovan had absolutely no time or energy for.
Besides, right now he wanted to focus on Mattias and his case. Making the trip over to Phoebe’s office/apartment was a nice excuse to stay away from the house for a little longer; though he’d have to go back eventually. Though, the investigator didn’t know about his home life, of course, and he wasn’t about to give up the ugly details.
“I got into a fight at school.” The lying came easy to him now. He had a history to back the story; though his last fight had been in tenth grade. Of course, his house was a different story, but he knew how to deal with it now. Only a few more months of school, and then I’m out, was the mantra he had been repeating since the start of school. “The other guy looks worse, trust me.”
