All our
broken bones;
Chapter2
Pen’s P.O.V
When I
saw Lilly[I call her by her middle name, Jeanne] March
up to Derek and his friends, I was scared. I pulled out my phone
and texted her 50 thousand times in one minute. “LILLYJAY
GETOVERHERE’ I kept sending. I knew she knew she got them,
because she looked down at her pocket everytime. I looked at her
pocket with her and, ugh! What WAS she wearing? I tired not to
stare, but she had on Bermuda shorts and a Camo Tee. That girl
needed to go shopping......Ah sorry. ADD. “Pen, sit
down” I felt my brother’s hand on my shoulder.
“She’s going to do something stupid Jet!” I
pleaded back. I tried to get up again, to go stop her before she
embarrassed herself, and, well, me. I sent her another text.
Finally, I got through to her, because she stopped and picked up
her phone. I sighed in relief.
Lilly’s
P.O.V
I snatched my phone out of my pocket and looked
at how many text messages she had sent me. 2O. Jesus. I was
angry, and I was doing this for her. But I slowed my pace and
headed towards them like a human being, not a hungry woolly
mammoth. When I got to their table, Derek was looking at me,
scanning me up and down. He seemed to like what he saw, and
I’m guessing he’s one of the guys who doesn’t
look at you for you clothes, it the shape the clothes are
on. I groaned i disgust and it him on the back of his
head. Derek seemed surprised and rubbed his
neck tenderly. I leaned over him my hair falling in his face.
“Tell me if you’re going to mess with Pen or
not.” I said through clenched teeth. “I am. Nothing
you can do about it?” Jesus, his breath smelled awful. God,
I was officially sick. So I hit him once more, hard, and walked
with dignity back to the table, where Jet was looking at me in
surprise, and pride. I took my seat next to him and leaned back,
into his strong arms.
All our
broken bones-
Chapter one.
Lilly’s P.O.V
Am I that
invisible? That when my bets friend gets up to go get some cute
to flirt with me, he ends up flirting with her? Everyone says, oh
that’s Pen! “Pen’s the kinda girl that can
steal your heart and get away with hanging it on her wall!”
“Pen’s the kinda girl who can just make you
smile!”
“ Oh that Pen, taking away my breath!’ I mean,
it’s kind of true. She was beautiful, smart, funny, and so
innocently dangerous. But at the same time you have your
unconditional love for her, you have this flame of hatred. Flame
of hatred because no matter what you do, you know you’re
never going to be as perfect as Pen. You know what? I take it
back. I got one guy, Pen never managed to. I try and pretend
i’s not her brother, though. If they weren’t
siblings, well, I wouldn’t have Jet. Popular, Smart,
Caring, Funny, Laid-Back, a good guy. He’d never hurt
anyone. Just a little boy in a giant’s shell. A handsome
giant, though. I looked over at Pen laughing and flipping her
hair every-time the boy opened his mouth. She bent down and
whispered something into his ear, and he handed her something.
She turned around and bounced her way back to our table.
‘Hey Jeanne.” She said, smiling so wide I could
almost HEAR it. “I got his nuuummberr.” I looked past
my little Pen at the table of sleazy boys she was just at. I
shook my head and a sound of anger grew from my throat. They were
all giving the guy high-fives and pushing him around, joking
about Pen as if she was a toy.
