" I've changed "

Broken Heart

Chapter 5: Broken Heart

"What a way to start the new school year. " I say while walking back to class with an ice

pack in my hand.

"Yeah, I know." Conner laughs

I'm glad he has calmed down. We stay silent until we reach our class. He opens the door

for me and I walk as elegantly as I can which makes me look stupid but he laughs and I

laugh with him. I throw the ice pack in the trash. I look around the room to see if Bryan

is there but he isn't. A part of me is happy but the other part is sad that I can't see him.

"He just punched you in the face" my self-conscious reminds me. Conner and I decide

to sit in the back and since the chairs are arranged in pairs it's perfect for us. The

teacher introduces herself but I'm not paying attention because Conner is poking me

making me giggle. Bryan came back after we came in. He hears me giggle because he

turns to look at me and rolls his eyes. Is he jealous? I laugh at my thought.

"Jackie, would you like to share what's so funny?" The teacher says clearly pointing me

out for laughing.

"Um...." Is all I can say

"I was laughing teacher." Conner saves me. I mouth thank you, he mouths no problem.

"Well stop it and pay attention." She says

"He laughs like a girl." Bryan laughs and some of the others join in.

I feel my face heat up with anger. It's my turn to save Conner.

"Says the one that acts like a girl." I suck at comebacks but I earn some laughs and some

burns. I can't help but laugh myself. But beforeI know it Bryan's in front of my desk. He

looks at me with cold eyes and raises his hand. He smacks me! In front of everyone,

now I know he will hurt me in a worse way. And to make matters worse the teacher

looks like she doesn't give a shit! In fact she's giggling and has a smirk on her face while

writing on the board. Conner gets up but I gesture him to sit down, he doesn't at first

but he sits.

"That's a good girl. Now keep that pretty little mouth of yours shut or I'll keep it shut."

Bryan whispers in front of my face.

I felt butterflies when he said I was pretty, well my mouth but it dies when I remember

I'm angry at him and he just smacked me. He walks back to his desk. I feel my heart

break at the thought of him hurting me. He's done it twice now, I'm afraid that he'll do

it again.

Conner's POV-

I was going to kill Bryan for sure if it weren't for jackie gesturing me to not kill him.

Damn it! Why didn't I just kill him right there. I can't believe she actually likes this jerk.
