《Broken》chapter 2.4 Aurora

"Do you like Lucius?" Asked Hex.
"What no, I just--, he's nice, and cute, no, not cute I mean he's a cool kid." She stopped for a moment "Is it really that easy to tell?"
"It's kinda hard to tell, but it seems like you like him more every day" Said Hex.
"I just don't know what to do, and don't you like him?" Said Aurora.
"I just like to flirt with him" Said Hex. She liked him as a friend, but felt like it could change.
"Oh, so what do you think I should do?" Asked Aurora.
"Well I have no idea. I would be worried about Athena because if you piss her off I would be lucky not being able to see what she would do to you" Said Hex.
"That's not helping!" Said Aurora.
"Hey"
They screamed when they looked over and saw Athena. Hex was standing beside her red as could be.
"I need to talk to all of you before you talk to Lucius again" Said Athena.
They nodded and looked at Scarlet. The bell rang before they could ask Scarlet what had happened. She spent the entire class fearing what Athena would say. She worried Athena would be mad. She wondered if she was angry about Scarlet and Lucius.
When the bell finally rang she was not happy about it. She walked to where she usually found Morrie and Lucius. Athena was there and Lucius was off in the distance. She was the last one to arrive.
"Let me make this clear, Lucius is my little brother," Said Athena.
Those words made Aurora explode with happiness.
"But don't you think for one second you can just have him. He is my brother and if you want him you have to go through me" Said Athena with a tone of anger her voice had never had before.
She almost seemed mad. It was something so out of her norm.
"And if any of you make a move on him so help me. But if you do want to go on a date with him just tell me. Last but not least if any of you hurt his feelings their will be nothing left of you for the police to find" Said Athena with a deathly tone. Morrie raised her hand.
"Yes Morrie?" Said Athena.
"I want him not as a boyfriend but I want his time. I want to be able to study him at any time. But if being his girlfriend is the best way to do that so be it" Said Morrie.
"No, that's not fair I had a date with him first" Said Scarlet.
"I met him first"
"You don't even like him"
"I never said that, I said that I don't want him as a boyfriend"

Aurora could see Allison running off with Lucius. She was holding his hand.
"Lucius is getting kidnapped"
They could see Lucius dash around the corner of the building. They began to run after him and when they turned the corner but found nothing. Hex was walking slowly to a bench. Aurora ran over to Hex, she grabbed her hand and ran over to the group.
"Where would you go if you were a slutty prick?" Asked Hex.
Morrie walked over to Hex "Do you mind taking a step to the right".
Hex moved over and Morrie said "Right around here"
"You're so funny" Hex shook her head.
"What could that prick want with my brother" Said Athena.
"She thinks if she steals him from you she can prove she is the hottest girl at school" Said Morrie.
"How do you know that?" Said Hex.
"We were really good friends once I know how she thinks" Said Morrie.
"I'm going to call him" Said Athena.
"I put his phone on automatic pick up" Said Athena.
"Why would you do that?" Asked Aurora.
"Because he wouldn't pick up when I called him at night. Someone had to get me water"
"So any idea where he could be?" Said Hex.
"Nope" Was the general reply.
"Well where is that hoe" Said Hex.
"Maybe she took him home" Said Hex.
"Why would she do that?" Said Aurora.
"That's what I would do. I would keep him in my room with a little chain around his neck so he couldn't leave" Said Hex.
"Kinky" Said Scarlet.
"I know where she lives" Morrie stood up.
"I am going to call him but let's start walking" Said Athena.
They walked behind Morrie and Athena called. His phone was on silent but would still let them hear what was going on the other side of the line. They could hear nothing but rustling. They could hear a door open and shut. A long while passed before they heard anything else.
"I think you were right" Said Aurora before the phone made a noise.
"Like this?" was the first words they heard come from the phone.
"Yeah just like that" it was Lucius's voice
"Have you ever done this with anyone before?" it was Allison.
"You're my first" Said Lucius.
All of them were as red as humanly possible. Athena was covering her ears. Morrie seemed interested and mad. She had her sleeves up to her face. Aurora was pretending to cover her ears.
"It's hard" Said Allison.
"It's supposed to be that way" Replied Lucius. Random sounds blocked out half of what they were saying.
"Are you going to put it in?" Asked Allison.
They arrived at her house and Athena run up to the door and kicked it in. They all found Allison and Lucius making candy and other sweets. They were all still red to an almost unnatural amount.

"W-w-what were you two doing?!" Said Athena.
"Making candy?" Replied Lucius.
"We totally thought you two were having-"
Aurora placed her hand over Hex's mouth.
"An affair" Aurora replied for her.
"I don't like Allison and I'm not married" Said Lucius.
"You don't like me?" Allison widened her eyes.
"Yes, I don't like you and that goes for all of you" Said Lucius.
Athena cleared her throat.
"You don't count and you're my sister, so its sibling love" Said Lucius.
"She's your sister?!" Yelled Allison.
"Yes is that not public knowledge?"
"Everyone thinks you and Athena are together!" Allison yelled.
Lucius seemed surprised "That's gross what is wrong with you people."
"I thought you were Morrie's brother" Said Scarlet.
"I'm leaving, let's got Scarlet" Said Lucius taking her hand.
She turned red as could be and they ran off.
"Well I'm going to see what they are up too" Said Morrie.
"I'm coming with" Said Hex.
"We can't just let her get a head start" Said Aurora.
"Are you coming with us?" Said Athena to Allison.
She nodded but said "Wait!".
She ran to her room and pulled out an enormous amount of makeup.
"We should disguise ourselves" Said Allison.
They got makeup and made themselves look different. They go hats and sunglasses. They walked to the mall and tried their best not to look suspicious.
"We look stupid" Said Hex.
"How would you know you're blind" Said Allison.
"Even I could see that you look stupid" Said Hex.
Aurora was looking around. "So should we split up and find them?"
"Yeah let's go in teams" Said Athena.
They made teams and split up.
"Wait why are you here anyway. Didn't you just want to date him so you could prove you are better looking than Athena?" Said Aurora.
"I am and I still need to prove it don't I" Said Allison.
Aurora was with Allison and they were looking in the upper left half of the mall.
"So Aurora, it's been a long time since we spent time together" .
"Yeah it has, how is life being popular?"
"It's nice I have lots of friends" Said Allison
"Do you actually like any of them as people?" Said Aurora as they walked.
"Of course I do!"
"Do you really? You like hanging out with those kids who only care about how much money you have" Said Aurora.
She knew what the people she hung out with were like. They were rotten to the core just like Allison. She wasn't always like that. She was a free spirit at one point but her other friends would pick on Scarlet and Morrie. Morrie never mentioned she was rich and Scarlet never mentioned she was poor. But people assumed and made fun of them. Most of the kids at their school paid to pass the classes. But the rare few like Scarlet were gifted.
Aurora saw them and pulled Allison behind cover. They were not looking at swimsuits. They were looking at each other. They were sharing a milkshake. They were laughing and he seemed to be blushing. Was she to late? Had he already fallen in love with another girl? It was a picture perfect moment. Her emerald eyes didn't just stand out from her wavy red river of hair, they danced. Her eyelids like curtains revealing a beautiful ballerina with every flutter of her eyelids.
He had a sleeping beast within his crimson pearls. His short dark hair was like a dead ancient forest. They say opposites attract and it's hard to get anything more different than them. She took his hand and they walked out as if down the aisle.
"Ummm Aurora, you're crushing the chair" Allison poked her.
Aurora let go of the chair and looked back at them. They walked to a clothing shop. They looked around and she began to try on different outfits. One after another and they eventually had a bag full of clothing. She would pose for every piece of clothing she got. Everyone seemed to think they were as cute a couple as she did. Aurora saw Morrie walking towards them. Athena tackled her and moved out of sight. Aurora and everyone else were watching them. Aurora didn't understand why she felt so angry but she had a plan.
A girl with brown hair was walking towards him. Lucius turned to face her. She swung at him and missed. He placed a piece of paper on her and she stood still. He kissed her cheek and walked away. He hugged Scarlet from behind and she was red as could be. Lucius was different. He hated physical contact most of the time and now he was hugging Scarlet. They walked out of the store and out of the mall. Lucius pulled out his phone and called her. Aurora panicked because they were close enough for him to hear them. She smashed her phone and ducked behind cover. She watched them walk to a place near her house. They hugged and walked away from each other. Aurora wanted to ask him before before anyone else did. She looked over at Allison.
"Hey Allison go around and intercept him" Said Aurora. She wanted to do this, she was heart set on him.

The Cursed Imperial Heart
In a world divided into different social classes, a nameless girl starts her journey rather tiring than most kids. Abandoned by her parents, she became a servant at a very young age to a wealthy noble family--the Brotillon, a family of powerful water elementals. Whose head is a well known Viscount. Though the girl was born with shiny brown hair and sparkling brown eyes, it was for that reason that she became a laughing stock to those around her. With no one to turn to for support, she swore to learn how to use magic no matter what! But as each day goes by, the beatings and humiliation got worse and worse. Finally had enough, she lashed out screaming! Done with the world she lived in! Done with her life! Only to faint out of exhaustion afterwards. Upon opening her eyes, she expected nothing more than an empty room with no one inside but her. However, it was the opposite! A room full off doctors and worried faces?! Indeed, she must have hit her head so hard when she fainted! She's probably just hallucinating, right?! But to her shock, it was all real! The Viscount who constantly beat her, patted her on the head?! The mistress who ridiculed her every chance she got, was worried?! Not just that, but----CRYING?! This continued for the next few weeks, and it looked like the 'situation' won't be stopping anytime soon. But she of all people knew, that it was all an act. But the question is, why? She screamed and lashed out at them, so why? Or perhaps, what she really needs to be asking are.... What REALLY happened before she fainted? What are they hiding from her? And lastly, Why are they suddenly interested in her eyes?
