Punching Bag

"Uh? Thanks?" I hesitantly replied, Robin nodded his head towards the cafeteria. We walked in silence but I could feel his occasional stares.

Seeing the others sitting at the same table, we made our way to them. Bruce avoiding eye contact. Why is he so mad about me and Griffin being friends?

Finney and Billy smiled, while Vance just gave a quick look, letting me know that he's aware of my presence. Taking a seat next to Finney, and Billy it was a bit too quiet.

"Y/n and Griffin are friends" Bruce abruptly said, catching me and the others off guard. "It's true, he was hanging around her locker." Robin confirmed.

Narrowing my eyes, I shrugged my shoulders viciously "And?" "You, and Griffin?" Finney asked, not wanting to believe the other two boys. "Yes. We are, and Bruce, not everyone has to know."

He mocked me by repeating my shoulder shrug and said "And?" Is he trying to make me mad? Because if so, it's working. But I wasn't the only one mad.

Vance slammed his hands on the table. People in the cafeteria didn't dare to look, they didn't even hear it. Not like they could.

"Your friends with that little SHIT!?" Ok, mad was an understatement, he was a ball of raging flames. About to pop and explode any minute. No wonder no one talks, or goes near him.

Not answering his reply, this seemed to make him even more furious, if that's even possible. "So it's true." He grabbed his food tray, walked to the bin and threw the whole thing in. Stomping his way out into the hallways.

Sitting there in pure shock, I went to say something but, Robin and Bruce stood up and followed after Vance. Was it my fault? In my opinion not really. In their eyes? Maybe it was my fault.

Finney and Billy looked at each other before looking at me. "Uhh..." Finney didn't know what to say. Like he agreed with the others. But he wasn't as mad, he had the others for that.

Billy shook his head in disappointment. "Y/n I told you to stay away from him" "HEY! There was only one seat left, which was next to Griffin." I defended, can someone just blame Griffin for a second? Like I'm literally getting bloody scolded by people who are acting like my parents.

"Billy it's not her fault. If the only seat was next to Griffin, then what else could she have done? Sit on the floor?" I had to hold a laugh back at Finns last remark. First time seeing him being sarcastic.

"Thanks Finn at least someone doesn't blame me for something" I appreciated. Billy sighed, obviously knowing he can't argue with us both. Next minute we see Bruce running back in.

He looked tired out as if he just ran a lap to get over here "guys! Bad news. They're gonna get Griffin." Knowing what he meant, I immediately stood up and told Bruce to take me two the other two.

Finn and Billy following behind. Bruce led us out the door to the field. Where LOTS of kids stood in a circle. Oh no. Pushing throw the crowd I seen Vance and Robin walking around Griffin.

Keeping him in the middle of them both. Eyeing him as if he was their prey. Vance stopped in front of the smaller kid and got up into his face. "I'm gonna have such a fucking fun time landing a number on you" Robin then grabbed the boys shoulder from behind, turning him around he punched Griffin square in the face.

Vance kicked the boy in the stomach, after he had fell to the floor. Shit I have to stop this. "Stay away from Y/n, pota" Robin warned, as he stated at the now bleeding boy. Vance stood over him.

Grabbing his blouse, he pulled Griffin up on his feet again, bringing him to his own face. "And if you don't. You'll turn into my next punching bag." Shoving him back down, he looked around and saw me.

Storming towards me, he yanked me away from everyone, his hold steel on my arm. From behind I heard Robin "You heard him." Before following after us with the rest of the boys.

"Give me your hand you idiot." Me, Vance, and Robin were both in the males toilets. Me cleaning Robins bloody hands from punching Griffin, and Vance just chilling with us two.

"You two seriously need to keep your chill." They didn't say anything. Wiping Robins knuckles a bit too harshly, he hissed. "That hurts" He let out a slight groan. "Hmm. Really? I wonder what Griffin would say about that"

Vance laughed a little, finding this whole thing funny. "And what's so funny Vance?" I quirked an eyebrow and stared at the curly headed boy.

Walking over to the bin I threw the bloodied toilet paper into the trash. Turning around, leaning up against the wall, awaiting for Vance to speak.

"Nothing. Nothing." Not believing him, I walked back over to the sink, turning it on and washing my hands. "Sure"

"Don't be mad. Be grateful he isn't gonna be bothering you anymore." Robin explained. Is he serious right now? Ok maybe he did follow me home. But really? Beating him up over me sitting next to him. I wonder what would've happened if I said he followed me home.

"He wasn't bothering me in the first place" I spat out, quickly walking towards the exit and leaving.

The two boys looked at each other in silence, not knowing what to do. "She'll thank us later" Vance said with a smirk.

I should've listened. I should've believed him.
