At school

Ella's POV

Ella: I'm just saying that if she keeps trying my patience like this, I'm gonna beat her ass.

Ryan: And you don't see any other way to resolve this?

Ella: No. She's a huge bitch, and she's been bullying me since I started coming to this school. And now she's telling people that I "like to pretend to be a child". She's referring to my age regression, which I can't exactly control. Nobody believes her, but that doesn't stop her from running her mouth.

Ryan: Well, you've hit her once already, and that didn't stop her either.

Ella: So the next step is a full blown ass beating.

Ryan: You're not scared that you'd get in a lot of trouble for that? Like, expulsion level trouble?

Ella: I don't care. I hate this school anyway.

Ryan: I get that, but-

Veronica: Don't you have any other friends? She asks from behind Ryan.

Ryan: What?

Veronica: You know, guy friends?

Ryan: Why do you care who I'm friends with? It doesn't effect you, and it's none of your business.

Veronica: I know, but like, why are you hanging out with a girl?

Ella: Because he can do what he wants to. What's it matter to you?

Ryan: Yeah. What's it matter to you?

Veronica: Guys don't do that unless they're like, super gay.

Is she serious right now? Why can't I have one day where she's not being a bitch? Just one day. That's all I'm asking for. But that's obviously too much to ask for.

Ella: Are you serious right now?

Veronica: You can't even talk. You don't have any friends that aren't him. Wouldn't you rather have girl friends?

Ella: And risk them being like you? Hell no. All the girls here are just like you, and I want no part of that. Hey, why don't you go fuck off somewhere, and we'll continue with minding our own damn business?

Veronica: Or? This is a free country. What if I don't wanna go somewhere else?

Ella: Then I'll just have to give you this long overdue ass beating. I say as I stand up.

Random Teacher: Hey, that's enough.

Why does this teacher always need to be in someone's business? Like, there's a kid stealing from the vending machine, in the hall, and you're worried about me?

Veronica: Mrs. Howard, she's threatening me.

Ella: And she's about to get her ass beat.

Ryan: Ella, let's just go. The bell's about to ring anyway.

Ella: And let this bitch keep inturupting our lunch with her bullshit?
