~~Star’s P.O.V~~   The next day I woke up and when I looked at the time and saw that I was running late, My dad would kill me if I was late because then he would end up getting a call from the school. I jumped out of bed and ran to the bathroom, but when I got there I stopped and realised that I wasn't in my old room, I wasn't at my old house and my father wasn't here. This was all new to me, I was used to having to rush out of the house scared that my dad might come home early and see me, but he wasn't here and I didnt have to rush anywhere. I wasn't going to be beaten by him again and I didnt have to fear him barging into my room. There was a knock on my door breaking me out of my happy thoughts.   “Come in.” I said and Emma popped her head around my door.   “Good morning, Star. Are you okay?” Emma asked, looking concerned at the goofy expression on my face and I nodded.   “Yes, just realising a few things, happy things, don't worry.” I replied, smiling at her.   “Oh, okay. Well, I just wanted to see if you were up, breakfast is on the table when you're ready to come down.” Emma said, looking confused.   “Thank you.” I replied and she left, closing my door behind her. I don't think any of them will ever realise just how nice and happy it makes me feel for someone to knock on your door instead of barging in. I went to the bathroom and did my business, washed my hands and came back into my bedroom, going straight to my walk-in closet. I looked at all the new clothes I had and decided I was going to start fresh, I pulled out a pair of ripped jeans and a long sleeve shirt, got dressed and then I saw my old hoodie. I always used to wear that hoodie, it was like a second skin to me or even a shield for me to hide behind. I put it on my bed, still undecided on whether or not to wear it and went over to my vanity table. I brushed my hair, put my shoes on and looked back at the hoodie. Even though I wanted a fresh start there were still some things that would take me longer to get used and not wearing that hoodie was one of them, so I grabbed it and left my room. I ran downstairs and to the kitchen where Nash, Kelly, Ava, Alice and the rest were, but then Kelly saw my hoodie.   “Oh come on, Star. Do you really need that hoodie? I know you're not used to having it off and I understand that, but at least try it for one day. You don't want to hide that gorgeous figure of yours do you?” Kelly said, making me blush.  I looked down at myself, not realising that I even had a figure, I was always hidden under my baggy clothes. I looked up and saw that Nash was looking me up and down, with a dreamy spaced out kinda look on his face.   “Alright, I'll try it for one day and see how I feel.” I replied, sighing and folding my hoodie up.   “Oh, by the way this is Piper and her newly found mate Blake. They made it official last night, i’m guessing.” Kelly said and they both nodded. ~~Nash’s P.O.V~~   When Star walked into the kitchen I was so surprised, she looked amazing and had a figure to die for, but she was still carrying that hoodie. She really didn't need it, she had an amazing body and I was so lucky that she was my mate. I was glad when she agreed to not wear it, hopefully it was the start of her getting over what happened, I knew it would take baby steps, but this was the first one. I couldn't take my eyes off Star, but then I looked up and saw Piper, I was so nervous when Kelly introduced them and I thought that Piper was going to open her big mouth just because I had refused her and kicked her out of my room, but she didn't and just nodded to her. I was standing behind Star now and I was so grateful that Star or anybody else didn't see me mouth ‘Thank Goddess’. Hopefully now that Piper has found her mate she will leave me the hell alone now. I sat down at the table opposite Star and everyone was eating their breakfast, but I was still staring at Star, she looked so beautiful. We ate breakfast and left the house to go to school. Thankfully this week was the last week, but we still needed to go there in order to be able to graduate. When we got there I noticed that everyone was turning around to look at Star and it was pissing me off. How dare they stare at my mate. They were all whispering to each other and even though Star couldn't hear them I could, they were all wondering who the new girl was. How is it that Star had been going to this school for years and yet none of them actually recognised her? How could they ever miss someone so beautiful? ~~Kristie’s P.O.V~~   My friends and I were standing next to our lockers when the school doors opened and Star walked in, but she wasn't wearing her usual baggy clothes. I was shocked at how nice she looked and I was right before she was really pretty, but she was also with Nash and I wanted him, he was mine.   “I'm going to go to the bathroom, I'll meet you in class.” Star said to Kelly and Ava. I nodded to my friends and decided to follow her. We kept our distance from her and waited for her to go into the girls bathroom before making sure the coast was clear and following her in there.   “Well, well, well, look what we have here girls. Star decided to give herself a makeover.” I said and Debra and Janice started laughing.   “What do you want, Kristie? Whatever it is, just get it over and done with.” Star said, standing with her back to the wall and her arms crossed over her chest, looking at us three.   “Well for starters, leave Nash alone. Second, where did you get that necklace?” I asked, stepping closer to her. I was going to grab the necklace, but Star shoved my hand away.   “What the hell? You try that again and I’ll break your f*****g fingers.”Star said, moving away from the wall and making all three of us back away slightly.   “Now, if you’ll excuse me, get out of my way.” Star said and went into one of the stalls. ~~Star’s P.O.V~~   What the hell was Kristie playing at now? Did she really think she could try and bully me after the last time. I went into a stall, did my business and then came out to wash my hands. I was thankful that those three bitches were not in the bathroom any more, I shrugged and went to the door to leave, but as soon as I opened the door I got punched in the face and stumbled backwards, landing on the bathroom. My thoughts went straight back to when my father used to do this to me, every punch, every kick came rushing back to me. It had only been a few days and I was feeling safe, until now. I felt something warm run down my chin and when I reached up and touched it, I looked at my fingers and they were covered in my blood. I looked up to see who it was that punched me and saw Kristie standing there with her two friends, Debra and Janice. Didn't these bitches get the hint that I wasn't scared of them, that I wasn't going to back down from them? I stared at them, not even bothering to wipe my blood away, after all my nose was broken and would only keep bleeding, so what was the point.    “Is that all you got? My father hit me harder than that, you stupid bitch.” I said, getting back up on my feet and facing them. My blood was dripping down my face, but I didn't care and just as Kristie was about to hit me again a hand caught her by the wrist and stopped her. I looked up to see it was Kelly.   “What the hell are you doing? You stupid f*****g cow.” Kelly said, pushing the girls away from me and looking at my nose.   “Are you okay?” Kelly asked and I nodded. Kristie brought her fist back and I quickly moved Kelly out of the way before her fist connected with the back of Kelly’s head. I brought my fist back and swung it as hard as I could, punching Kristie in the face.   “Next time sweetheart, Ill do more than hit your f*****g face.  Go find yourself another fuckbuddie and leave my man alone. NASH IS MINE!” I said, making all three of them run out of the bathroom and away from me.   “Damn Star, you're not weak are you? You Are fiesty and will make one hell of a Luna….I mean….shit, nevermind, come one let’s get you cleaned up.” Kelly said, nervously. What did she mean by Luna? ~~Kelly’s P.O.V~~   I can't believe I just f****d up like that, I should know better, but it was just a slight slip of the tongue. How could I be so stupid? What the hell was I thinking, that slip up could ruin everything before she has a chance to get used to the idea of what we are.   “Nash, Star was just attacked in the girls bathroom.” I said, mind-linking my brother.   “What? What happened? Who did this? Is she okay? Is she hurt? I’m on my way.” Nash replied, worried.   “NO! Nash you can't come here or Star is going to have questions, you need to stay right where you are and act normal. Star is okay, she has a bloody nose, but she is okay. It was Kristie and her two b***h friends Debra and Janice. Kristie was trying to warn Star to stay away from you, but Star didn't take that too well and punched her, stopping her from hitting me.” I said, hopefully he would listen to me and stay where he was.   “Fine, i’ll stay, but stay with her and keep an eye on her.” Nash replied, ending the link. I thought it was best to skip over the whole Luna part, he would only start to panic and worry. I knew that Star’s nose was broken and that she would need to put it right, I had seen my brother do it, but no matter how many times I had seen him do it, it still made me cringe and this was going to be no different. Star would need someone to do it for her because I’m sure she wouldn't know how to do it herself. ~~Star’s P.O.V~~   She tried to cover it up, but I heard what she said and even though I wasn't going to say anything I wasn't going to forget about it either. What did she mean by Luna? Luna meant moon and I’m pretty sure i’m not a moon, so what did she mean? I went over to the sink and splashed some water on my face, getting rid of the excess blood. I took my nose and popped it back into place, making Kelly cringe in the process and then splashed some more water on my face.   “Oh my god, how do you know how to do that?” Kelly asked, shuddering as she looked at my nose.   “Easy, when my dad decided I wasn't rushing fast enough for him he would hit me. He broke my nose so many times that I learned how to put it back by watching videos on Youtube and Googling it. It hurt the first time I did it, but after a few times you get used to it. After all it wasn't like I could go to the hospital or anything, I had to do it myself.” I replied, revealing a little bit more about my past and Kelly nodded. I wiped the rest of the blood off and cleaned myself up.   “Come on, let's go to class.” I said, walking to the bathroom door, with Kelly following behind me.
