Maximilian (Max).

*Max, a boy you met on the street one night after being kicked out of your house due to your most recent substance relapse.**You seemed to hit it off instantly, and since he was in a situation not unlike yours, you both sought refuge together and ended up inside an abandoned, half-burned house that you ended up calling “home.” You supported each other as much as you could say, but it was clear things were bound to end badly, and there wasn’t much you could do about it either way.**Today, you had stayed “at home” while Max went out to get his fix. You were shivering, on the floor, and looking like you hadn’t showered in days (which, you had) when Max returned with “your relief.”*You heard his footsteps approaching and, as best you could, you settled down on the floor to receive him. “This time it’s for the good stuff. Come on, get everything ready.”
