If I'm broken will you still love me?

The stranger with green eyes

    Chapter 1:  The stranger with green eyes

Jewels POV:

All my life I have wanted to be loved. My parents died when I was ten I did not have anyone else in this world,so for a girl like that meant only one thing...The Jailings orphanage. From the start I knew that I was not going to like it, just the name orphanage gave me chills,but add Jailings to it and I am terrified. The orphanage is a place were they sent little girls and boys who did not have anyone else, just like me.

    Time went on in that place and I soon learned that if you did not do what you were told you would get punished. I have only gotten punished 3 times: one time I was told to quiet down during class but the problem was that I couldn't I was too excited because there was a couple coming in to take a special someone home. With all my might I prayed that that special someone was going to be me. But because I could not be quieted I was locked in a very dark room and I missed the couple, I cried all of that night. This other time when I was 12 I refused to eat my vegetables at dinner so I got spanked with a wooden spoon 15 times in a row, I could not sit down for a whole week.

      The 3rd time was the worst I was 13 and got into a fight, it wasn't even my fault this boy was pushing and hitting this little 10 year old so I went up to them and punched the other boy in the face. I was starved for a week and a half. After that I never misbehaved, because after I hit the boy in the face I was told that if I got in trouble one more time they were going to put me in the attic. The attic was the worst punishment there was; no one knew what they did to you, but we all know that if you go into the attic you come back broken. One time this girl back talked to the teacher and was sent into the attic.....you could hear her screams all night, the next day when she came down for breakfast we asked her what they did to her but she did not say....she never talked again.

         Now I am 17 years old and out into the real world. I was kicked out of the orphanage two weeks ago for being too old. I have been living in a little rundown house on the other side of town. Today I am going to the towns high school to enroll, when I got there a kind old lady greeted me and handed me some papers to fill out. After I was done filling them out she gave me my schedule, locker number, and locker combination. She said that I can start school tomorrow, but she said I can go find my classes, my locker and stuff today so that tomorrow I did not have to rush anything. I thanked her and went to find my locker and classes. Once I found my classes and my locker I was about ready to leave when the bell rings. All of a sudden tons of kids come storming out of classrooms and into the halls. I was trying my best not to knock into anyone and just leave the school when I'm knocked onto the ground.

         " Oh, sorry I did not see where I was going. Are you okay?" When I looked up at the stranger to tell them that I was fine I saw the most incredible green eyes. I do not know what was wrong with me, but there was something about those eyes that just made me feel safe.

        " Oh....I'm okay." I told the green eyed stranger.

        " Good.....hey are you new here I haven’t seen you around here before?" The stranger asked.

         "Um...yeah I just enrolled. I start school tomorrow."

          "Cool, see you then." With that he left to go to his other class.

          As I walked back to my house I could not stop thinking about that stranger and those green eyes, and that night I went to sleep and dreamt about those incredible green eyes and the stranger who they belonged to.
