"So what's wrong?" Shawn asked as we sat in his car in front of our local frozen yogurt place.
"Just my dad." I sighed.
"I don't see any marks, did he hit you again?" He asked concerned.
"Physically, no. Mentally, yes."
"I'm sorry," he gave me a sad pity smile.
"I just wish this wasn't my life."
"Don't say that."
"I have one friend. Boys don't talk to me, and when they do, it's to make fun of me. My dad abuses me and my mom committed suicide to get away from me. It's because i'm not pretty."
"You really think all of that happens because of your looks?"
"Yes."
"You're so wrong, Lyric."
"What do you mean?"
"You're so beautiful, I love that you don't see it. I admire you. Your hair is never always in tact, your makeup isn't always perfect, you have lazy days, you don't wear top brand clothing, you go days without wearing makeup, you never do anything different with your hair, and you know what? I find everything about you so beautiful. Not just on the outside. Your personality is so enchanting. Your smile can light up the darkest of rooms. Anyone would kill to have you, I would kill to have you." He said staring into my eyes.
"Kiss me." I said as I begin to lean in. I watched as he smiled and leaned into my lips.
Kissing him was like flying to another planet and never wanting to come back down. His lips felt like electricity against mine, I didn't want to ever pull away.
Shortly after, he pulled away from the kiss as he smiled down at me.
"I should get home before my dad notices i'm gone." I sighed sadly.
"Alright." He said smiling as he grabbed my hand driving out of the vacant parking lot.
