She snarled like a panther. Her body shook with anger.
"Do-Not-Touch-My-Friends" she growled through clenched teeth. "Or what?" Layla taunted, pushing Mercedes. 2 seconds later, Layla was on the floor holding her nose moaning on pain. Mercedes cracked her knuckles and stepped over her. "Ready for round 2?" She looked pist, really pist. I think her eyes just turned red.
Her attention was diverted to her friend, still lying on the floor. "Ohh Jojo, are you OK?" she asked helping her up. The anger was gone now. Hurt filled her eyes. I never expected that from her. Something was going on.
"Uh yh im fine," Jojo replied looking a bit shaky. Anybody could tell she was fragile. She looked delicate. The red head came to help her. "Des," Mercedes looked at the blond. "Its okay Merce," she said while patting her on the back.
She backed away from Layla and slid down the wall.
I'm confused. What was going on here? I sat next to her. She looked like she was gonna cry. "Hey you OK?" She looked at me like she was gonna fall apart and shook her head. "Lourdes what is happening to me?" she whispered.
"Hi, I'm Keke," the red head said giving me a friendly smile. "hey, Niall" I responded. She nodded her head. "Whats wrong with Mercedes?" I asked her. "Maybe you should take her outside for some air," Lourdes said looking at me.
"Um ok. No problem." I stood up and went outside with Mercedes. We sat on the lawn in front of the school under an apple tree.
"Mercedes," I said gently moving a strand of hair from her face. "Whats going on?" I asked her. She looked at me and sighed. "Do you really wanna know?"
"Only if you're willing to tell me."
