The woods nicked at her legs as she ran. Her school skirt too short to spare her legs from the vines and tree roots. She just kept running and running.Please, please forgive me, But I won't be home someday you'll look up, And, barely conscious, you'll say to no one:"Isn't something missing?"She couldn't get the words out of her mind. Surely this was some joke friends played on each other out of boredom. Surely her friend's other friends were in on the joke. But why would her best friend do this?You won't cry for my absence, I know - You forgot me long I that unimportant...? Am I so insignificant...?Isn't something missing? Isn't someone missing me?She fell down as a root caught her ankle. A mangled cry of pain escaped her lips. She looked at her torn sock. She hated how it looked. It reminded her of her heart. She pulled her ankle free and curled into a ball and sobbed on her backpack. Even though I'm the sacrifice, You won't try for me, not I'd die to know you love me, I'm all 't someone missing me? Please, please forgive me,But I won't be home again. I know what you do to yourself,I breathe deep and cry out, "Isn't something missing?Isn't someone missing me?She looked up and saw her savior. The seeker sighed when he saw her condition and held out his hand. The girl sat up and took it. Starscream would be her fighter. He would defend her from her hateful friend's friends. He knew her pain, for their's was the same. Both abused by family and friends. He would be her guardian.And if I bleed, I'll bleed, Knowing you don't if I sleep just to dream of you I'll wake without you there,Isn't something missing? Isn't something...
