"Why do we like to hurt so much?" Marcy sang under her breath. Quinn tapped her shoulder so she took off her headphones. "What's up?"

"Rebecca Stanley. I swear I'm going to kill her." Quinn leaned against the locker next to hers.

"I don't know why you don't listen to me. Jump on her." Marcy shut her locker and spun the dial.

Quinn huffed. "We might have to. She won't leave Mikey alone."

"Slap the taste outta her mouth and see if she don't back off." Marcy started walking towards her last class of the day.

Quinn kept pace with her. "Eliza doesn't."

"I'm going to have to hurt that chick..."

"You really think we should resort to violence?"

Marcy gave her a dry look.

"I'll think about it."

W.W.W.

Rebecca hit the wall of lockers and bounced off them. She gulped in fear.

"We told you to stay away from him!" Mercedes yelled.

"I'm not- I'm not-" Rebecca stuttered.

"I see we're going to have to teach you about respect the old fashioned way!"

Quinn slapped Rebecca to the ground. That felt really good. Being ladylike about the situation was wearing thin.

Santana, who, with the glee girls, was holding back the crowd, hooted.

Mercedes kicked Rebecca in her stomach. "Stay! Away! From! Our! Husband!"

Rebecca cried out in pain. Quinn stopped Mercedes from kicking her and squatted to look Rebecca in the face. "Come near him again and this will seem like fun."

W.W.W.

"Why are you girls reacting like this?" Michael was surprised Mercedes and Quinn got suspended for fighting.

"She wouldn't stay away from Mikey!" Mercedes crossed her arms.

"Ugh! I hate women with no boundaries!" Jeanette rolled her eyes.

"We weren't trying to kill her. Just send her a message." Quinn sulked.

"The school is trying to figure out if it's bullying." Michael shook his head.

"If anything, she's bullying Mikey by trying to force a relationship!" Mercedes bit off.

"It's not fair!" Quinn added.

Michael steepled his fingers together. "Nonetheless, you shall be punished. No television for a week."

Both girls pouted. "Okay."

"Now go wash up for dinner."

They shuffled out. "That wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be."
