Glass Heart; s.m c.c

"She hid behind her mask and pretended everything was okay."

"Aye Cabello, nice ass." snickered her boyfriend Luke's best friend, Theodore. He looked her up and down and leaned against his locker smirking.

"Watch your tongue Theodick." snapped Camila. Inside she was crumbling to pieces, tired of being objectified and gawked at.

Her mask cracked, Camila looked down at her feet, waiting for the taunting to stop. Once she looked back up he was gone, replaced by the one person she didn't want to see. Luke.

She flinched as he said, "Hey babe, what's up?" His mask was intact, the school's jock, popular and dashing. That's not what scared her, it's what would happen if that mask came off. The face underneath. The very one she had to deal with whenever she was left alone with him.

He pressed on the very spot where he knew it hurt. A fresh bruise on her arm.

*flashback*

He slapped her mercilessly, every blow ruthless and sharp. Her body black and blue and her heart fragile and broken. Her pride in shambles and her dignity gone entirely. His heart dark and cruel. She whimpered and struggled free from his grip, kicked him where it hurts and ran home. Wind whistling through her hair she ran pumping with adrenaline, her only thoughts being getting away from him.

"I'll make you pay," he whispered, "you know I will."

CRACK

She slapped him right across the face, letting out all her anger then and there. A red hand print left on Luke's face. "Bitch." he muttered.

Camila's deep brown eyes shed a single tear. Little did she notice a broken boy with dewy brown eyes, who would come to mean so much to her, watching the events unfold. His ivory complexion making his eyes shine as he peered at the doll-like figure of the damaged girl running away.
