Prism Girls chapter 2 pt.2

At night, I can sometimes hear Leto crying with nothing but her fragile bones holding her together. I climb into bed with her and hold her until she stops, but her eyes don't ever stop being so dark. She can look right through me with those eyes. Sometimes her sobs grow so loud that they echo through the halls. I press my lips against her forehead and sing the little song we had learned in music class. It was an Earth song. "Life Itself" by The Glass Animals. 

"Daddy was dumb, said that I’d be something special

Brought me up tough but I was a gentle human

Said that he loved each of my two million freckles

When I grew up, was gonna be a superstar"

She loved that part. I would kiss her cheeks right atop her freckles.
