Mia sits in her room, writing in her book. A soft knock is heard on her door. She looks up and smiles softly. "Hey, Bryce. What's up?" She questions. Bryce doesn't answer, Mia could tell by the way his face was twisted, he was angry. She sets her notebook aside. "Bryce...? What's wrong?" She questions.

Bryce sighs, he walks into her room and closes her door. He walks over to her, "Tyler pulled a gun on me." Bryce says.

Mia's eyes widen, she shoots up from her bed. "What?!" She shouts.

Bryce touches her arms to calm her down. "It was a few weeks ago. But...he did it for a reason." Bryce says.

Mia licks her lips. "A reason? What reason could there be for pulling a gun on you?" Mia says in a hushed whisper.

Bryce exhales, "Tyler told me, what Monty did to him." Bryce informs her.

Mia's angry expression goes slack. "W-what? Why would he...tell you?" She questions.

"He was going to kill me, Mia. I think I deserved an explanation." Bryce runs a hand down his face. Mia closes her eyes and slightly shakes her head. "Okay--but, why are you telling me?" She asks.

"Tyler told me you were the first to know. And...I know you go to school with Monty, maybe you could...help me, check in with him? Make sure Monty stays away from him." Bryce says, hoping she would agree.

Mia tilts her head and a smile twitches onto her lips. "Bryce..." Mia says quietly.

"I'm going to talk to Monty when I see him next, that'll probably be during the Homecoming game, but...I'm gonna do it. I can help Tyler, even if he doesn't want to go to the cops...I WANT to help him." Bryce says in a firm tone.

A lump forms in the girl's throat, she wraps her arms around his neck and pulls him into a hug. Bryce chuckles, he hugs her back. "Wh-what's this for?" he questions.

"I'm just really proud of you, dude. That's why."

Mia paces the living room. "Mia, please you need to--"

"I'm sorry, Mom. But I can't calm down, I can't...Clay just got arrested, a-a-and you won't even let me go to the station. And...I'm...I just I want to be there for him. I think I'm gonna pass out, I think I'm gonna--"

Nora touches her daughter's shoulders. "Mia, you need to breathe." She says. "In and out...In...and out..." Nora continues to advise her daughter, until she was breathing normally once again.

Mia looks at her mother and nods her head. "I'm good, mom...I'm good..." She says quietly.

Nora nods her head, "I have to get back, but call me if you need anything." Nora says. Mia slowly nods her head

"I'm here because Mia and Justin were gonna be here." Clay says nodding his head. He turns to Tony. "What's your excuse? You hate football."

"Yes, but Caleb loves football." Tony says.

Mia smiles at them. "I played in high school."

Tony quickly looks to the couple, "Please don't ask him--"

"What position?" Clay and Mia question. They notice Tony's annoyed expression. "Sorry." They both apologize to Tony.

"I tell him one story, and now he calls me 'Glory days'." Caleb states.

Mia laughs with them. Tony looks forward and pulls his brows together, "Hey, I thought Ani wasn't allowed to come to the game?" Tony points at the girl.

Mia arches a brow, "Ani's not allowed to do a lot of things...like...kiss other people's boyfriends..." Mia tugs on her earlobe.

Tony and Caleb look at each other then Clay. Clay looks at them and presses his lips together. "I'll be right back." Clay says. As he stands up, Mia raises her brows. Clay looks at her, "Mia--"

"It's fine, Clay. You can check on her, You're your own person." She says, raising her hand up. Clay looks at her, he kisses her on the cheek and walks out of the bleachers.

"Kickoff's in five!" Caleb calls out to Clay. Tony looks at his boyfriend and raises his arms in the air.

"Hey, Mia." Tony says. Mia looks at them. "You gonna be all right?" He asks her.

Mia sighs, "If she doesn't kiss Clay again...I'll be fine." Mia shrugs.


After Clay got back, he was quiet. He said he was fine, but that obviously was a lie. When it was halftime an air horn sounded through out the field. A flood of girls run onto the field with the girls chanting "Hey, hey. Ho, ho. Rape culture has got to go!"

Mia raises her brows. "Huh." She says.

"Did you know she was gonna do this?" Mia asks Clay.

Clay shakes his head, "No idea." He answers.

"Well, she's got their attention now." Tony says.

The girls on the field take their clothes off and Mia's mouth goes agape. "Holy shit!" Clay says.

Mia squints her eyes and looks over to him. "Glad you're enjoying the view." Mia says.

Clay looks at her, her opens and closes his mouth a few times. "It seems unwise." Caleb comments.

Mia turns away from Clay and watches the rest of the events unfold. "Seems like it's gonna go wrong." Caleb says.

Mia nods her head, "It's Liberty High school. Something always goes wrong." Mia replies.

One of the football players of Hillcrest walks up behind Jessica and grabs her breast from behind. Mia shoots up from her seat, "FUCKER!" She screams.

Jessica knees the boy in the crotch. "KICK HIS ASS JESSICA!" Mia barks.

Tony, Caleb, and Clay look at the blonde. "She's a firecracker." Caleb comments.

Clay nods his head, starstruck by his girlfriend. "Yeah, you should've seen her when we all fought last school year." Tony says.

Mia stalks down the bleachers and runs towards the field. "And there she goes again." Tony states. "We're going." Tony says.

Clay stands up, "Yeah, we're so going."

Mia runs over to one of the Hillcrest members and kicks them in the back of the knee. She kicks him in the back, sending him to the ground. Mia feels arms wrap around her and she thrashes around. She turns to see Clay right there. "We got to go." He says.

Mia looks around and sees cops coming towards the field. "Shit!" She exclaims. Mia and Clay, run off the field.
