Everything happenend so fast. Soon we were both on the ground, and nothing could separated us. He kept hitting me, as I was weakly responding, with my fists. There was blood on him, but it looked like it wasn't just his, like mine was on there too. His face was distorted by anger, his once clear eyes were now dark. He kept hitting me. All I could feel was pain, but soon I reversed roles, and it was me on him, strikking his face and belly. At some point, someone came separating us. Soon he was joined by others, because we couldn't stop ourselves. We just wanted to cause pain to the other boy in front of us.
When we were calmer - which was not difficult, since we were enraged - we went to the nurse, then were sent to the principal.
"I don't want to know the reasons. Don't tell me anything. But you deserve punishment. So, choose between 9 days of detention, or an hour holding hands in front of everyone."
Our principal is always like that. Doesn't want to do anything with troubles of any sort, but always have ideas for punishment. I looked at my feet. Then at the fucker next to me. He was looking too, frowning.
"I don't have all day !" he shouted.
I didn't want any more troubles for today, I was already gonna die at home when my parents were going to hear about this. But... holding hands with him ??
"Okay for the hour."
Surprised, I looked at the asshole. He was looking in front of him, without showing any emotion. So I did the same.
"'Works for me."
