Broken

Priestess dragon: Thanks for reviewing :) Here's another update for you.

This is based off the song 'Broken' by Seether

Enjoy!

Jade sighed as she leaned back against the wall.

Marik had left her... again.

I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away

She knew it was only a matter of time.. but sometimes.. she wished he would stay.

I keep your photograph, I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

She wished he knew how broken and lost she felt when he left.

/What does she have that I don't?/ Jade thought miserably, staring at herself in the mirror.

Really what did Natalie have that she didn't? Other men thought Jade was pretty enough.

'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

/Maybe it's my hair.. It's not... that beautiful blonde she has... And her eyes../ Jade sighed to herself.

/I'm... just not good enough for him./

You're gone away
You don't feel me here anymore

"I never was... Why else would he leave?" She mumbled.

Brown eyes blinked when a flash of light flickered from her nightstand.

Marik's dagger.

The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away

For weeks Jade had been feeling the urge to kill herself; how could she not? But the dagger was egging her on; it's like fate wanted her to die.

/Might as well grant it's wish then./ She thought bitterly, grabbing the dagger.

There's so much left to learn, and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

A sigh escaped the petite girl's lips as she stared at the dagger for a minute. If she used this... it'd be like Marik killed her.

'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough

"He technically did kill me though.." She muttered.

/I wouldn't be missed../ She thought; even though she knew it was a lie. Courtney was probably still waiting for her at the cinema. Jade decided not to go.

She was probably worried sick.

'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away

"But I don't care..." She mumbled, bringing the dagger to her wrist, prepared to slash.

/Good bye world./

You're gone away
You don't feel me here anymore

"No Jade don't!"

Jade turned and saw Courtney standing in the doorway, tear drops streaming down her face, which looked extra pale in the small light illuminating the room from the door.

"Please.. it's not worth it.." Courtney begged her.

Jade looked up at her with dull brown eyes.

"He.."

Courtney walked over to her and hugged her tightly. "He's a bastard.. He doesn't deserve someone as great as you."

Jade blinked. "Thanks.."

"Jade... please promise you'll never.. try.. this again... I don't think I could take it if you left.." Courtney murmured, hugging her friend tighter.

Jade nodded. "I promise Courtney."
