Song: Fix a Heart by Demi Lavato

Character: Miss Martian/M'gann


You must be a miracle worker
Swearing up and down
You can't fix what's been broken, yeah
Please don't get my hopes up
No, no, baby, tell me how could you be so cruel?
It's like you're pouring salt on my cuts


He holds me close, calls me "Angelfish", and says he loves me. If that is all true, why do am I still hurting inside? He loves me. Why isn't that enough? But I know why. I know that as much as La'gaan loves me, it will never be enough. La'gaan will never be able to take Conner's place, no matter what he does. It hurts to see him everyday. He seems so distant now. He spends a lot of time out of the Mountain. He doesn't look at me much, and it hurts. Sometimes, I can't even tell if Connor even misses me, so I peek into his mind. Just a peek, so he doesn't notice I'm there. I see that-oh!-he does miss me! He does still love me! And for a moment I am elated! But then La'gaan wraps his arms around me, and I am pulled back into the reality of the situation. La'gaan loves me, and I love him, I cannot leave him. So I stay with him. He treats me well, and makes me laugh, but it is still not the same. I realize that I am broken, and La'gaan can't fix me.

Conner could fix me. But I can see that he's starting to move on. He's getting closer with Cassie, a little too close for my comfort. But I can't blame him, nor can I blame her. Cass is like a sister to me, she's so pretty, energetic, and eager to please, not to mention strong, both physically and emotionally. Conner doesn't hold back when they are sparing because he knows that she can take a hit, and she can hit back just as hard. He smiles more around her, teases her, playfully punches her when she teases him back, he's happy, and it stings.

I'm happy for him, really I am, but it still hurts. So I turn around to face La'gaan, I put a smile on and he smiles back. I press my lips to his, and he kisses back. He is the band-aid I need to heal the wound. He won't be able to heal the broken parts inside, but he can certainly stop the bleeding. He loves me, and I love him. So what if I'm broken? I'll manage. And so what if he isn't Conner? La'gaan still loves me. So what if Conner is moving on? I should be entitled to move on too. Right?


Baby, I just ran out of band-aids
I don't even know where to start
'Cause you can't bandage the damage
You never really can fix a heart


AN: Oh...guys...I am so sorry...I just-I don't know what happened...I feel so sad...but reviews make me happy! So...Review?
