Max's pov

We were ordered to go to the principal's office. What a great way to start the first day of school after spring break

We both walked in. We were both quiet. I was still pissed off. The principal frowned when he saw us. "Hello kids, is everything okay?" he asked

The teacher that has seen us arguing was with us as well. The principal then noticed the teacher as well as he walked in a second after us. "Oh hey mr. What's going on?" the principal asked him

"Those two kids were fighting so I brought them here" he said. He's saying it like we were having a boxing fight or something

The principal looked at me and then at troy as he sighed shaking his head in disappointment. "Seriously kids? You literally just got here and you're already fighting?!" he asked

Neither of us said anything. "Is any of you gonna explain what happened or are we just gonna waste time?" he asked. Troy and Iooked at each other

The principal looked at the teacher as he waited for an answer. "Well, I saw troy slapping-uh what's your name?" the teacher asked me. Most teachers know troy even if they don't teach in his class for some reason

"max" I said. "okay max" he said. "she punched me first!" troy immediately said. "you insulted my best friend and I!" I argued. "Calm down both of you!" the principal said

"how did everything even start?! Let's go from the start because looks like we've got misunderstandings here" the principal said

"Maxine, go first" he said. I nodded. "my friends and I were just walking to class and he randomly started insulting my looks-" I started. "What did he say?" the principal asked. "He was making fun of the way I dress" I said slightly afraid that the principal would agree with troy at this point just like everyone

Both principal and teacher looked at my clothes. I was wearing a simple sweatshirt with baggy blue jeans. "What's wrong with her outfit?" the principal asked and I felt like I could breath again

Troy was confused. "girls don't wear that" troy said. " I don't see anything like that on the school dress code?" I said. "That's true troy, girls dressing more like a boy isn't very normal compared to other girls but that doesn't mean it is not allowed" the principal said

Troy didn't know what to say. I knew that he wanted to call me a Dyke but was afraid in front of the principal. "You said earlier that he also insulted your best friend?" the principal asked. I nodded

"what did he say?" he asked. Why so many questions and details, is that necessary? I looked at troy as he gave me a death glare. "Don't look at troy and just tell me maxine" the principal said

"He called her an ugly dyke" I said as I sighed not liking the comment troy said. "Is she-?" the teacher randomly asked causing all of us to look at him. "Does it matter?" the principal asked frowning

The teacher slightly blushed in embarrassment realising what he did. "No-it doesn't-I'm sorry" the teacher quickly apologised. "Okay so you punched him?" the principal asked.

I nodded. "And then troy slapped maxine?" he asked. We nodded. "Fortunately Mr. Jack has found you otherwise you would have done worse" he quietly said

We didn't say anything. "First of all, violence is not the answer-" he started. I could tell troy thought that the principal was on his side. "But.. maxine had all the reasons to do that troy since you bothered her first" he said

"She literally punched me? What was i supposed to do?!" he said defensively. "We don't hit girls!" the teacher said. "So she's allowed to punch me but I'm not? Plus I slapped her only" troy said

"oh thanks for not punching me instead" I said sarcastically. "okay enough, both of you did the wrong thing so I'm giving you both a detention" he said

"what?! She punched me!" troy said. "You bothered, insulted her first, end of discussion, apologise to each other" he said

"I'm not apologising for just speaking facts" troy said. I could tell he regretted it the moment he said it. But not because he's a good person and actually felt bad, because we were with the principal

"Okay troy only gets a detention maxine you're fine but don't do it again, both of you" the principal said. Troy gasped. "what?! -" he said. "Enough, go to your class" he said clearly tired of us
