"E-Emma? It's okay y-you know. I-I'm used to i-i-it.""You shouldn't have to be, some people disgust me, the nerve of them." "I can't blame t-t-th-them, I m-mean l-l-l-look at m-me." He sounds so defeated, even though I can tell he's trying to hide it, so hurt and broken and utterly defeated. And that, to me, is absolutely heartbreaking.Whipping around, he bumps into me, clearly not expecting my abrupt stop. "I am looking at you, and you're beautiful Nathan Walker, beautiful." There's tears in my eyes and a lump in my throat the size of a basketball, and my eyes are burning, burning and my heart hurts but it's so fast, pounding a beat against my chest- because he should know, people like Nathan deserve to be told how unequivocally, unconditionally, completely beautiful they are.. . . . . . . . . .Emma, a sixteen year old girl in the big city of Toronto, who befriends her school's social pariah, out casted for his looks.
