Burning

I felt like my heart was burning...crumbling...breaking apart....I was sitting in one of the stalls in the girls' restroom,crying. My crush,who I liked since 1st grade,just called me ugly. I was used to being called ugly but,never would I have though that Nathen would've called me that. My mom always said I was pretty. I have light blue eyes and long,straight silver hair. Pale skin,and thin light-brown eyebrows. I always denied it,when my mom said that. And,well,you should know why. I've been bullied and called ugly since kindergarten. And,I believed it because almost everyone said it. I have no friends or know anyone who would want to be my friend. I continued crying in the stall until I heard the bell ring for the end of the day.

I was walking on the sidewalk to my house when someone behind me said,"Moon! Wait up!" I sighed and stopped,my sister,Sun,catching up to me. I continued walking. She looked completely different than me. She had beautiful long dirty-blonde hair and dark blue eyes. I knew she could tell something was wrong,because right after she asked,"Is something wrong?" "No," I said back. I walked faster and stopped at my house. I opened the door and walked in,Sun following behind me. I walked up the steps to my room and closed the door. I heard a buzz from my phone and I took it out of my pocket. Tears formed in my eyes as I saw the text Nathen sent on the group chat with everyone in the school. And it said,"Moon is stupid,ugly,and a crybaby. Today at school she CRIED because I called her ugly! It was just a dare." I wiped away my tears,starting to get angry. Nathen was lying. It wasn't a dare,he meant it. He knew I was in that group chat,too. I put my hand to my chest,feeling my heart break again,crumble into the darkness,the void. I could feel it snap in two,I could feel the darkness and emptiness. I could feel the loneliness and sadness. I could feel the fire and anger. If only someone had the water which would put out the fire.....

This is my first time doing a story and I don't know if I'm going to finish it. It seems bad to me but I hope you like it. I may do a part two.
