Boys

Predator And Prey

"Oh no! Quinn, are you okay?"

"I don't know how I feel. I loved him so much! He loved me too." I sniffled, wiping my tears.

"Well, what happened?" Emerson asked, shoving a spoonful of ice cream into her mouth.

"I don't know." I cried harder, "I just saw him like this. Lifeline!" I cried his name.

"Aw. I was just about to bring you a new case for him."

When I pick up my phone, I whispered 'I love you' and threw it in the bin. Now I need a new one.

"Let's go buy a new one after we go to school." I shrugged and walked up to my bedroom to grab my bag.

"Wait, so you actually want to go to school?" Emerson glanced at me carefully.

"Yes. Now, come on! I leave for New Haven on Sunday."

"Since when! You never said anything about that! Kaia waved her hands in the air viciously while ahe glared at me. I looked at her through my rear view and sighed loudly.

"I don't say a lot of things, Kaia."

"Meaning what?"

"Meaning that... You know what? You both know why I don't mention University and unless you want my demeanor to change, drop it." I scolded.

They huffed in defeat, knowing that I was correct. If I even think about that place before I have to go, I'll become angry. With my mother, for not accepting that I got into a good University and with myself, for not being able to get into the University of my dreams.

We finally pulled into the car park and I couldn't help but notice that Trystan's car was here and it remained the same from my little rampage. I smiled as the people who passed by it laughed.

"You know, your plan was actually funny," Emerson laughed uncontrollably, almostfalling to the ground. "Finally, you learn from me!" She cheered.

"Hush! They can't know that I did it!" I hissed and she instantly quieted. Kaia shook her head amused and walked into the schoolfollowed my us two.

Inside, there seemed to be a scene occurring as stidents started to gather around. Undoubtedly we walked into the crowd to see what new drama as spurred.

"I know that you did it, Brooklyn!" Trystan yelled in her face. Tears were running down her cheeks as Brooklyn's entire face became red.

"I told you, I didn't!" She screamed back, "I didn't do that to your car!" I immediately tensed and looked away. I kind of felt bad that the blame was put on someone else.

Trystan took things a step to far when he pushed her against the locker and hit the locker next to her head with a strong punch. Kaia grabbed my hand as I flinched violently and she tugged on it, silently telling me to help Brooklyn.

I stepped forward and whispered, "That's enough, Trystan."

"What?" He spat and turned around to face me.

"I said: That's enough!" My voice became firm as I straightened my back.

He laughed and stepped toward me, grabbing onto my arm, "Oh, waw. Wonder Woman saves the day. No!" He roared, "Look at that, thing, standing there with tears cascading down her oh-so-caked face. She's a b**ch behind all that-" I did the only thing that felt right.

I slapped him, so hard that it echoed throughout the hallways as the students got quiet. I slapped him 1) because he was uttering offensive words to a female and as a female also, I couldn't let her stand there and be defenseless to his harsh words. 2) I was not tolerating this behavior from anyone. If he wanted to play the Blame Game, I could too.

He stumbled back, surprised at my action, but as he processed it, he came charging toward me. He has no idea what he's gotten himself into.

I moved out of the way, letting him run past me into the lockers, smashing his face. I stalked up to him and grabbed his hair and pulled his head back.

"Go look at yourelf in the mirror when I'm done with you and see who looks like a b**ch." I pushed his head back down just as I brought my knee upwards. I kicked his stomach and pushed him unto the lockers the way he did Brooklyn and hit the locker next to his head. Everyone was deadly silent as they watched me beat him.

"Feels nice?" I laughed in his face. But I had to do this one thing before I left. I just had to knee him in his groin. The other males grimaced at the sight but I laughed and turned to the crowd.

"Let's make this clear, boys. If you lay one finger one any female, whether child or adult, at any time, I will personally hunt you down and make your punishment bad. And trust me when I say this, I will. Just because we seem delicate and fragile, it doesn't mean that we are. You may be our predators and we may be prey but if you hurt a female, make a smart guess about who will be the prey now. I will hunt you down! Is that clear?" I boomed. They all nodded and scurried along.

Kaia and Emerson looked like if they wanted to cry but I laughed at them and walked to my class.

"Thank you, Quinn!" Brooklyn smiled at me. I hope she will be alright.

"No problem." I shook my head and contined to walk away.

I scowled at the ground and groaned, "Boys."
