Eloise
I start my day at 6 AM with a granola bar and cup of cranberry juice. I pick out an outfit and do my makeup, which I really don't like to put on but Noah says I need it. So I put on some powder, concealer, and do the rest of my normal routine. I also make sure to cover up the mole under my eye. Noah hates it so I always make sure it's covered. I move the power-covered brush to my neck to start covering the light bruises that formed from last night.
You're probably thinking hickies, right? Yeah, I wish. But Noah apologized after the incident and told me how much he loved me, time and time again. I would question it but always decide against it because I know the outcome would not be swell.
So I get ready and go to school, slapping on a smile so nothing seams out of the ordinary for "oh so happy and perfect Eloise." Please queue the eye roll now because that's the biggest load of bullshit I've ever heard.
Don't get me wrong, I love my schools and the small town I live in. I'm part of the golf team, Beta club, Student Council, Student Advisory Board, SADD (students against destructive decisions) and do tutoring after school. I am the perfect picture of school spirit and involvement. Why would anyone ever thing I have breakdowns at 2 AM or an abusive boyfriend who hides it so very well or parents on the brink of divorce? I wouldn't. Everyone thinks that I go to sleep and wake up with a smile on my face. And oh how far that is from the truth.
I would never tell anyone how I actually feel. Noah wouldn't listen and just talk about his most recent gym visit. My parents are too busy with their own problems to care about mine. My sister is never home. And my friends would probably tell the councilor I'm "depressed" at the first sight of sadness.
Well I guess there's one person I would tell. In my World history class, the best class of the day. Caspen. He just has this warm aura I wish everyone could possess. I feel like I'm just drawn to him. The time I spend with him is the only time in my day I can say I'm genuinely happy. And that's rare in my life.
