--Blaze--

With all the bumping going on, her locket fell off. I tried to give it to her but she ran away. Always in a run.

Hopefully I can catch you soon, I still don't know her name.

I head over to English, that's my favorite subject, I hope to become an English teacher in the future. Though I also love to bake, yes baking is also another one of my passion. Maybe I can do both or I think I'll decide as time goes by.

As I walked into the classroom I saw her. I walked over to her and sat next to her.

"Hi." I smiled.

"Hi." She gave me a faint smile.

"You forgot this." I said while grabbing her hand and put the locket in her hand. She was so delicate. How can anyone hurt someone like her.

If I ever come across them, they will pay.

--Aviana--

At lunch Justin sat next to me, he grabbed my hand really hard and whispered. "We'll talk about you flirting with that dude, later." He said through greeted teeth.

Michelle just sighed. She knew better to not talk, otherwise she would be betraying my trust.

After school, Justin talked to me, and by talk I mean he slapped me.

"I wasn't even flirting with him." I sobbed.

"Right, and I was born yesterday." He rolled his eyes.

"I promise I won't talk to him, I don't even know him." Which is true, I didn't even know his name.

"Next time it will be worst, You're mine and only mine, Understood?" He said while grabbing my face really hard.

"Yes." I wiped my tears. After that he took me to school and drove off, I got inside my car and went home.

I wish he would dissappear, I'm so tired of him.

When I got home, my parents were waiting for me in the living room.

"I'm sure those bruises is not cause of another door. Start talking." Dad demanded.

"It was a door, you know how clumsy I am." I shrugged.

"Uh huh, we let it slide, but enough is enough. Is Justin hurting you?" He asked angry.

"No, he loves me and I love him. We're happy, can't you see it." I faked a smile.

"We're your parents, we know when you're faking." Mom said with crossed arms.

"I promise is nothing serious " I said as tears started to fall. They both walked towards me and hugged me. I needed their hugs so bad. I was crying uncontrollably. I broke down.

"Princess, will you please tell us." Dad said while hugging me tighter.

"I can't, because I want to see Serena be born." I sobbed.

"What does that has to do with her?" Mom asked confused.

"Just trust me, I'll keep you and Serena safe." I said before going to my room.

"What was that about, what does she mean safe?" Dad asked confused.

"I don't know, but I'm sure it has to do with justin, I never liked him." She replied.

"Same, I hope she realized how toxic he is." Dad sighed.

--Michelle--

Few days went by and it was Friday, finally. I waited for Aviana by the lockers, like always.

"You're her friend, right?"

I turned to see the new guy, "gotta give me more details."

"You know, short, black hair, green eyes. You're always with her. And she carries a locket."

"Aviana? Yeah she's my best friend. Why?"

"Well, is there something going on at her house, is she in a abusive relationship?"

"Why you wanna know? What's in it for you?" I asked.

"When I first crossed paths with her, there was pain and fear in her eyes, and she had a huge bruise on her cheek and wrist. No one should go through that." He said in a worried tone.

"Not here, wanna meet at the coffee house after school?" I asked.

"Sure, I'll meet you there, this is my number. I'm Blaze by the way."

"I'm Michelle." I said as we shook hands. Seconds later he left.

"Finally on time." Aviana said while running to the locker.

"I missed you." I hugged her. I know she's in need of a hug. Sometimes we need a hug from the people you love.

One way or another we were gonna help Aviana, not only is she my best friend, but she's my sister. I'm done keeping quiet, Even if she gets mad, I know she'll be free and safe.
