Lapidot: I will always choose you (Human Au)

2

Lapis’ POV

I walked to my class, the noise in the hallway slowly faded into white noise. I feel sick, I feel this the constant fear that he is behind my shoulder. I don’t want to be with Jasper… he’s so abusive there isn’t apart of my body that isn’t bruised. But I mentally abuse him so I deserve this… right? It’s been three years, three years of hell. I know I should be sorry because no one deserves it but when I see him crying I feel stronger? I hate myself so much, but I know that I can try and be useful like this morning how I stopped Jasper from hurting Peridot. Those moments make this hell worth it.

I walk into my class right before the bell rings. Yay geometry.

“Take a paper and take a seat” Mrs. Quartz said she is a beautiful caring person she has adopted some of my friends Amethyst, Pearl, Ruby, Sapphire, and Jasper. She's does have her own kid his name is Steven, I babysit him on the weekends so her and her husband Greg and go out.

I grab a sheet a paper and sit in the back. Peridot said we have every class together but I don’t see her, I hope she’s okay.

Peridot’s POV

Not okay! Not okay! Jasper’s grip around my neck tightens as he punches my stomach for the tenth time. He drops me on to the ground and starts kicking my body, I tried to stop from crying but I couldn’t the pain is too much. He spits on my face and finally walks away. I try and get up and limp to my class. Luckily the bruises don’t show.

I limp into class ten minutes late, and I can feel everyone’s eyes are on me but the only ones I care about Lapis. She looks at me in horror she knows who did this. I grab a sheet of paper, I noticed the only seat open was next to Lapis, so I sat down trying not to make eye contact even though I can tell she’s staring and wants to ask a billion questions which she already knows the answer to.

“Peridot” she whispered, I wonder how long she will keep trying to get my attention before she knows I’m trying to ignore her. I try and work but she doesn’t stop.

I groan “what Lapis?” she could tell I was annoyed but she cared more about how I got hurt than if she’s annoying me or not.

“What happened” she genuinely looked concerned.

“What do you think happened, Jasper” I said coldly without looking at her, I know it wasn’t her fault but I just did not want to talk.

“I’m so sorry about him, you want me to take you to the nurse?”

“No I don’t want your help, you will just get me hurt even more if he sees you helping his victims”

“I don’t care what Jasper thinks you and I both know what he does to everyone, and I just want to help, please Peridot.”

“Fine” she smiled weakly at me, it makes me feel more sick than the smile Jasper gives to me. I look away from her, she gets up and asks the teacher for a pass as I limp into the hall.

We walk in silence I can tell she wants to talk, I hate it  I want to talk to her but I am also too afraid that if I say something wrong and she’ll send Jasper after me, I shouldn’t even be standing this close to her so I took a few steps away from her and hopes she doesn’t notice.

“Peridot, I just wanna ask you a question” she voice is so beautiful, and I love it when she says my name it just gives me butterflies.

“Uh what is it?” I managed to say without stuttering.

“Well you don’t have to answer but I just don’t understand why does he bully you?”

“Are you serious? It’s just who he is, if you need proof that he’s psychotic then look at your body. He likes hurting people, why are you even with him?” she stopped and looked at me sending chills up my spine.

“You wouldn’t understand”

“I want to”

“Maybe another time” she smiled, but I could tell it is faked it’s different from the one she gave me this morning. It looked so broken I just wanted to hug her but I was in too much pain.

“Lapis?...”

“Yes Peri” I tried not to blush when she said Peri, it sounded so cute.

“Thank you, no one has helped me or even cared about my well being in awhile”

“I feel like it’s my fault, so I want to help” she opened the door to the nurses office, I limp in and sit down as Lapis signs me in. She sits next to me and examines my bruises, she lightly touches the one on my arm which makes me flinch.

“I’m sorry!” I told her it was fine and relief washed over her face as she sighed. I can’t help but stare, her lips look incredibly soft, her skin is so clear no scars, acne or anything, and might I add her short hair where pieces come down hitting her forehead, but what makes my knees absolutely week is her ocean blue eyes I swear I can get lost in them for hours. God damn she’s so beautiful what I wouldn’t do to feel her soft lips. And her body is incredible, not too skinny or not too fat. She wore her typical blue crop top and booty shorts that make her... um.... butt look amazing. I started blushing from the thought of Lapis' butt. God I'm so gay.
