Summary: her love is over, and at a price she can never take back. Luca's relationship has ended.
Her body shook as she stared at her dishevelled reflection. The mascara she had so scarcely applied now stained her cheeks, the make-up flaking as she fought the urge to weep openly.
Her shoulders ached from where she had been pushed and held down. The hot, sticky hands were still being felt against her skin, sending waves of sickness throughout her body.
She felt ill. She wanted to vomit and cry and not come out of her room for days, but school was again tomorrow.
'I should never had said yes,' she thought desperately. 'It's my fault this happened, my fault...'
Slowly, she peeled the torn shirt from her body, tears began to creep down her blackened cheeks. The inner of her legs ached as she eased herself onto her bed- wiping her eyes with her sheets that had bore witness to her pain.
As the young girl fell asleep in tears that night, she became aware of her situation and was filled with the sadness of regret. She had been used, deflowered and cast aside- all in one night.
Luca did not sleep that night, merely cried for her pain that had followed from that push.
She was alone once more, and worse off than she had been before.
