CeCe's P.O.V

I reached out a hand to Star but she just sat, frozen, tears coming from her eyes. I felt so bad for her. Seeing her so hurt made my heart ache. No one should be outed like that and when I find out who told everyone Star is pregnant, I'm gonna beat their ass.

Star pulled her hand away from mine and ran out of the lunchroom. I kinda froze because I didn't know if I should go after Star or stay and stop Billie from beating this boys ass."Dammit." I muttered under my breath. I slammed my hands on the table and got up to get Billie. People were recording and some were laughing and talking. Luckily the principal or nobody has got here yet so I had time to get Billie.

She was on top of the boy punching his lights out. "Okay Billie. That's enough. We have to go." She hit the guy one last time before slowly getting up. I have never seen her this angry before. "Say some fowl shit to her again, and you won't live to attend your graduation. As a matter of a fact for anybody who says or does something to Star will have to answer to me." She said looking around at everyone. "Billie we have to go find Star." I whisper to her while grabbing her arm. "Shit. Yeah. Come on. I have to go to the bathroom too." There was blood all on her knuckles and rings. I shake my head and drag her out of the lunchroom.

Honestly, with them, it's like taking care of children, especially with Billie. I know she's gonna be in a pool of trouble when security finds her. We hurriedly walked to the closest bathroom, in hopes Star would be there. Billie forcefully pushed the door open and we could hear some heaving. Really hard.

I ran ahead of Billie and in the first stall I spotted Star with her knees to her chest and tears streamed down her face. She was breathing heavily like she couldn't breathe. I quickly ran to her and wrapped my arms around her. "Star? What's wrong baby?" She couldn't say anything. The only thing that came out of her mouth were whimpers and heavy breaths.

"Billie what's wrong with her?" Billie moved me aside and took a hold of Star. "She's having a panic attack. Hey Star, baby, look at me okay? Calm down. Breathe in for me okay?" Star tried to breathe in but it came out as a shaky breath, followed by more erratic breaths. "Here." Billie grabbed star's hands and placed it on her chest. "You feel that? I need to breathe just like that. Follow my breath okay? CeCe go get me some water." I quickly got up and filled my water bottle with water from the fountain.

When I returned, Star breathing was better but it wasn't exactly the same yet. "That's it. Just breathe. Here take a sip of water." Billie took the bottle from me and put it up to star's lips. She took a few sips then pushed the bottle away. She took a deep breath in, then let it out. After a minute, she was breathing normally but she was still crying.

"Baby I'm so sorry." Billie says, hugging her. "I want to go home." I hear Star muffle into Billie's shirt, followed by sniffles. "I know baby. Come on." Billie stood up and Star wrapped her legs around her waist. I grabbed her purse as Billie walked out the stall. As we all walked out the bathroom, we ran into the principal.
"Ms. Matthews, Ms. O'Connell, and Ms. O'bryant, my office now." Oh shit here we go.

——-
"Ms. O'Connell, you are lucky his parents didn't press charges. That is a serious offense. You almost knocked that boy unconscious." The principal said. "Well he said something disrespectful to Star. So I'd say he had it coming." Billie protested. "Well here we don't take matter into our own hands and we don't fight. You should've came to me or Mr. Fritters (the assistant principal). Ms. Matthews what did he say to you?" I looked over at Star and she bit her lip harshly then tears started forming and she buried her head in Billie's chest.

"Well Star is dealing with some personal issues. The fact of the matter is this boy along with many others are bullying her." I bud in. "I can't do anything if I don't know why this is happening to her." The principal stated. "It's a serious thing and she's not comfortable with anyone knowing. She's uh...expecting a child." I say kind of awkwardly. Mrs. Robinson raised her eyebrows in a 'oh' manner.

"Okay now we're getting somewhere. I understand her issue but if she doesn't want anyone to know, I can't do anything for her besides bringing awareness to bullying. I'm sorry. And Star? I'm supposed to call all you guys parents but since they don't know about you, I won't call them. Billie you have a 2 week suspension starting tomorrow. Now y'all will be in the library for the rest of the day so you won't have to worry about the knit picking. You guys will also be escorted out at the end of the day. I can try and have someone walk around the school with you guys so no one will say anything. Now you ladies have a good day.
Make sure you go straight to the library."

I gave her a small smile before thanking her and then we left. "This is bullshit. Fucking suspension. Really?" Billie groaned. "Be lucky your ass ain't in a jail cell." I told her sternly.

Guys I wanted to do something a little different by putting in cece's POV. I hope you guys will enjoyed, have a great day.
I love you all. Bye.
