There he is again
Walking down the hall with his arm wrapped around her waist and the brightest smile on his face.

The girls long, silky, white hair pulled neatly into a braid that rested over her shoulder.
The boys soft, chocolate brown hair that curled just a little in the back, not too much but it was noticeable.

And their eyes...
The girl, bright blue eyes with dashes of pink... she was stunning. No wonder he chose her.
As for the boys? Ocean blue eyes, it seemed to go well with him see g as how he was always by the ocean... always smelled of the salty breeze and sand.

Pidge sighed as she thought these things, her crush on the infamous Lance McClain was eating away at her with every passing moment. Every time she seen them together was like another dagger to her stomach and another night spent crying in her pillow. Did she show these feelings towards her friend anywhere but at home? Hell no. She hid the crush with sassy comments and smiles, acting as if she couldn't care less.

The couple now sat in front of her at the lunch table, chatting with the other friends. Pidge focused on her computer as always, not seeming to look away from the keys for more than a millisecond.

"Hey, Gunderson. Why aren't you eating?" A strange yet familiar voice came from her right and she glanced up to meet the violet eyes if her best friend, Keith Kogane.

"Not hungry and I have work to do so yea." She gave a light shrug, truth be told. The girl hadn't eaten properly in days, she wanted to be pretty...

Well, societies pretty.
Skinny, long hair, manicured nails and makeup.

She had started growing her hair out, it was now almost shoulder length at this point, starving herself and if she ever ate too much, forcing herself the throw up. The girl even started to wear eyeliner and light eyeshadow just to hopefully get lances attention through all this.

It was only last night she had punched her mirror and watched it shatter, her knuckles had been cut open but she wore a bandage around them. Whenever she was asked about it she just shrugged off and said she had gotten upset and punched a wall, so her hand was nastily bruised.

Keith just shook his head at her comment "Alright kiddo." Was he worried about his younger friend? Yes he was. Would he show it? Not in front of the others.

They all went on with their day as usual. Lance and Allura attached at the hip, Keith constantly texting Shiro, and hunk giving Shay a few kisses in between classes. By the end of the day, it was always just Pidge. Left out and abandoned by the others.

She was picked up by her brother that day, the girl put on a fake smile and ran to Matt's car. She pushed up her glasses and threw her bag into the back of the car before hoping in on the passengers side.

"How was school Katie?" Her brother always asked when he picked her up, ruffling her growing hair with a large grin plastered onto his face.

"It was great!" She lied, she's been lying alot lately, mostly about why she's been wearing long sleeves more often. "In tech, we were programming robots. It's meant to be a week long assignment but I'm almost done! I have to tweak up a few things on the robot itself then add to the programming and I'm done!"

She smiled, though it was forced, just like the words and cheerful tone in her voice.

Matt chuckled lightly, smiling as he drove the two home, completely oblivious to the breaking of his little sister. Of course she showed no signs of breaking despite the broken mirror in her room. She said she had accidentally flung the remote into it and cut her knuckles doing something with robotics, her family of course bought it, and her mirror had been replaced.
