Hey guys, KDG here. Thought I'd give this idea a shot.
If you didn't read the summary a warning this has abuse and rape.

Aura POV
It was around midnight, the cool night air whipping around me. The only time I felt calm was up here, flying over three thousand feet in the air with my wings spread out. I felt safe for once. Knowing Jayce would be out until I got home from school the next day I eventually circled back. The town was small and it didn't take long for me to land on our doorstep. Picking the lock with a bobby pin I slowly opened in, tucking my wings in tight.
As predicted, my older brother was passed out on the couch with an empty beer bottle in his hand. I quickly picked it up; I'd learned years ago never to leave glass around him. I tossed the bottle in the recycling bin before walking upstairs. The house was dark except for the streetlights, which illuminated my bedroom.
I flopped down on my bed. It had been a good day; Jayce had been out when I got home from school and probably fell on the couch while I was doing homework. Most of the bruises had faded but I still changed in the stalls in gym. And for the time being Edward said he'd lay off the questions. I closed my eyes and curled in a ball under the sheets, wincing slightly as pain shot through me. Just because the bruises were gone doesn't mean it doesn't still hurt.
"Get up!" My brother's voice broke through the darkness of my sleep. Before I could even sit up he'd grabbed my shirt and shoved me against the mirror on the wall. I cried out as the shards pierced my back. "Didn't I tell you to clean up?" His eyes were bloodshot letting me know he was on his drug high.
"Um..no," I said. True he did never tell me to clean up. Apparently that was the wrong answer; his fist collided with my face. He dropped me on the floor before for about ten minutes went on hitting my ribs making it hard to breathe.
"You're cleaning all this up as well," He snarled before walking away. Yeah I defiantly had at least two ribs broken. Looking at the clock I saw it was already seven and scrambled to get up. Walking slowly to the bathroom I started piling on the cover up for the bruise already forming on my cheek. I had no idea what to do for my ribs so figured painkillers was all I had.
After an insanely quick shower, three advil and changing into clean jeans, a red t-shirt and a denim jacket I was running to school. With pain constantly making movement hard I was late to homeroom by five minutes. The teacher glared at me but motioned for me to take a seat. "Jeez what happened?" Bella asked.
"I didn't clean up his mess so he punched me and most likely broke a few ribs," I said keeping my voice low and breathy.
"You need to tell someone A," Bella frowned at me. "If you don't I'll tell dad." I stared at her and grabbed her hand.
"No! Please, you promised!" I pleaded. "I'll be fineā¦" She sighed but didn't say anything. Her dad is the chief of police in Forks. "I'll clean everything up while he's out and still have time for homework." I sighed as my stomach growled; I never had time to get breakfast. She sighed and nodded slowly before going back to Edward who was sitting a few feet away from us. He gave me a suspicious look but then his attention was on Bella. I had to keep reminding myself his dad was a doctor meaning I had to be more careful around him.
My classes were a blur, I was too focused on breathing carefully so I wasn't in the much pain. Lunch came soon and I couldn't make myself eat as much as I knew I had too. I felt too upset, ugly and fat. Sitting down with a waterbottle I took the seat next to Bella. Emmett grinned at me, waving. With Bella dating Edward and him being brothers with Emmett I felt out of place even thought Emmett assured me I was part of their group many times. "Hey!" Emmett shouted suddenly making me flinch.
Bella frowned, shaking her head at me. I smiled sheepishly as Emmett waved someone over. "You guys met Jasper?" He asked as a tall blonde guy sat next to me. The others waved while I tried not to stare. "Jazz this is Edward, Bella and Aura." Jasper smiled.
"Not hungry?" I blinked looking up to see Jasper looking at me weirdly. I nodded when truth was; I was starving and in my mind that was a good thing. At the time my stomach chose to growl again, Jasper raised his eyebrows but didn't say anything. I blushed, smiling sheepishly sure of two things. 1: I was defiantly in love. And 2: Jayce would probably beat me half dead if he found out.
