"Oh my god, what happened to you? Get inside!" - Aiden&Bella <3
he looked a mess, eyes rimmed red and blood crusted at his lip, clearly his own. few of the bruises inflicted were already beginning to set, darkening the right side of his face, most prominent at his cheek. aiden was slouching, terrible posture while he stood in bella’s doorway -- very unlike him. of course she caught on, he was the epitome of something broken and damaged. his expression pulled into a grimace, tears stinging the corners of his eyes. he’d run into jude earlier, though it’d been pure accident. to his amusement, the other lad approached him, fists flying in under five seconds. come to think of it, jude led with his fists, bringing violence to what could’ve been a thorough discussion. aiden fought back as best he could, and despite the notable height difference between the two, he wasn’t much of a match. instead, he managed to pull himself away after most of the damage was done, arriving at bella’s with nothing else on his mind, save for her. he needed to see her, to seek comfort in her, and tell her what had happened. maybe then it’d sink in that jude was a terrible match for her, that she could do better. @sxmeoldlxve
