"Look it's the loser again," Michelle spits and pushes me against the wall.
"Hey Michelle," I say
"Ew it talked to me," she laughed with her 'squad' and quarter back boyfriend.
Boyfriend, ew. Guys never really liked me but then again I never liked them. I knew I liked girls for as long as I could remember and I came out to Michelle and she bailed. My moms adopted me a year ago but I had always lived here in storybrooke just with the Nolans who ran a foster home but didn't like me at all. I look down at my wrists and sigh at the scars. You will not go back there Ariana you will not.
I grab my book bag out of my locker and I had no homework so that was a plus. I pulled my phone out and started texting my friend Ruby.
Hey Red
Don't talk to me she replied
What did I do??
You're worthless and a freak
I didn't respond and started towards the door. Great you fucked it up with the one friend you had Ariana good job! I collided with someone in front of me and landed on my butt with a thud. I started to get up and a mutter a sorry but I was pushed back down.
"Damn right you're sorry," Michelle spits
"What do you want Michelle?"
"You're just a stupid little girl huh?" She snaps
"Just leave me alone," I got up
"And if I don't?"
"Well we won't find that out cause I'm leaving," I started to walk away when someone grabbed my collar and held me against their chest and Michelle walks around to face me.
"Well Ariana," she punched me in the face once
"We are finding out," I struggled but that did nothing.
She started punching me over and over and I couldn't do a thing about it. I felt my lip get bloody and my eye swelling. Damn. She didn't stop there, she put her hands on my shoulders and I shivered at her touch but she began kicking me in the gut over and over until she was satisfied.
"Would you like to finish her off darling?" Michelle asks Vince, her boyfriend.
"Of course love,"
He hands me over to her and she holds me against her front and he takes one huge swing at my face and she drops me. She walks away leaving me there trying to control my sobs. I get up and head to the bathroom to clean my self up.
I wipe the blood from my lip and put on some red lipstick to cover that up. I pull out my foundation and start to cover up the forming bruises on my cheeks and go to wipe the blood off my forehead from a cut. I spread the foundation on my eye and blend it all out then I add concealer on my dark circles and dab that in and cover it all with a powder. I hope moms don't notice. I start walking out when Ma calls me.
"Hey ma"
"Ari where the heck are you momma and I are worried sick you're an hour late!" Ma says
"I'm sorry I'll be home as soon as I can, I had to get some help on homework," I lied.
"Okay we'll see you in a bit sweetie," she says and hangs up.
One thing you should probably know is my moms are Regina and Emma Swan. Regina is the mayor while Emma is the sheriff. They chose Emma's last name instead of mashing the two last names mills and Swan. They then adopted me, Ariana Swan and I'm 16 years old and completely hate myself from all the bulling and hate I get.
I keep walking home and eventually get to the biggest house on the block, the mayor's mansion. I walk in and yell I'm here and run up to my room but I'm stopped by Emma or momma.
"Hey Ari come here for a sec will ya?" She asks
"Sure momma what's up? I say walking to the living room where ma was already sitting.
Emma's POV
I walk over to where Ariana and rub off some of the makeup from her eye gently revealing her black eye. I then hand her a makeup wipe and give her a look saying busted.
She wipes off her makeup and it shows her having several cuts and bruises lingering her face and a black eye.
"Oh sweetie," I say and Regina bursts into tears.
"I'm sorry moms," she sniffles
"What happened?" I ask going over to comfort Regina.
"I uh fell down the stairs," she lied
"Ari my superpower," I remind her
"Damn,"
"What happened?" I repeat
"Uh some people ganged up on me today after school," she said
Regina slowly moves out of my arms and comforts our daughter but Ariana winces and I make her stand up. She then pulls up her shirt slightly to show a huge bruise covering most of her stomach.
"Ariana how about you go to the kitchen and get some bags of ice and lay down upstairs and your mom and I will be up in a minute," she nods and walks upstairs
Reginas POV
I cry into Emma's shoulders and she holds me close and kisses my head. I thought going to hell was bad enough and almost not making it back but seeing our daughter with her face all beat up and her stomach bruised beats all of the horrid things I've lived through.
"It's okay Gina," Emma says soothingly
"Barely," I mutter
"I know baby I know,"
We then spend the remainder of the night cuddled on the couch with Ariana and we watched Friends and the fosters latest episodes. Ariana still had the ice pack but was feeling better thank goodness. I just can't believe someone would do this to our baby girl. She is so sweet and considerate. I just don't get it. Soon enough sleep took over and I fell sound asleep in Emma's arms.
