y/n's pov

"what was that about?" roger asked me.

"we all got into an argument and dylan threw the first punch," i explained. "mattia was just trying to defend me."

"okay," he sighs. "i gotta go deal with the both of them. and you need to tell me why you were so upset yesterday."

"i was just having a bad morning," i say. "i'm fine now. and i really don't wanna talk about it anymore."

he scans my face before nodding and walking away.

mattia's pov

dylan and i were sitting in the office waiting for roger to come back to speak with us. i had a busted lip but he had more damage than i did. and i'd do it again.

not long after, the door opens and roger walks in. "dylan, i'm gonna talk with you first. let's go to my office." i watch the two of them head into another room.

i hope y/n isn't mad at me. i know she told me not to engaged with him but in my defense, he threw the first punch. i only finished what he started.

a couple minutes later, roger's door opened and dylan walked out of the office glaring at me. "he told you to go in."

i stand up and walk into his office and took a seat in front of his desk. "i'm sorry, i didn't mean to lose my temper like that."

"what did he say that angered you so much?" asked roger.

i gulp. "it's not more of what he said but what he did. and it's not my place to say."

"i'm guessing it has something to do with y/n?"

"yeah," i say lowly. "i don't know how else i can explain it."

"i don't condone violence, especially not on school property," he said. "but y/n isn't just a student to me, she's family."

"it won't happen again," i reply. "no promises, but i'll try my best to avoid that situation. just know that i wouldnt have done that if he didn't deserve it."

"i know. i trust your judgment."

i nod. "so sad what's my punishment?"

"i'm not gonna suspended either of you. i'm don't want to suspend you, therefore i can't suspend him either. it has to be fair."

as much as i wanted dylan to receive that punishment, my mom would kill me if ever got suspended.

"i'd also never hear the end of it from y/n if i suspended you so..." roger added, making me laugh lightly. "you'll get an after school detention for one hour. dylan will get his tomorrow, assuming i can't put you two in the same room."

"i'll take that over a suspension," i respond. "thank you."

"just please don't fight on campus again," he said.

"like i said, no promises." i got up from my seat and walk out of the office.

y/n was outside waiting for me, leaning against the lockers. "so? what'd he say?"

"i just have detention after school today. it's better than a suspension so i'm not complaining." we started heading towards the cafeteria.

"you went a little overboard back there.."

"he threw the first punch," i defended myself. "he deserved every hit anyway."

"what happen to not engaging with him?"

"what happened to running away from him whenever he approached you?" i cross my arms.

"hey, i tried to walk away," she answered.

"well i tried to refrain myself but it didn't work either so."

"did punching him repeatedly feel better?" she asked me.

i sigh and think. "i mean a little but.. not really."

"right. cause whatever you do now won't take back what happened," said y/n as we arrive to the lunchroom. "anyway, you should clean your lip. i'll talk to you after your detention."

"you're not mad at me are you?"

she makes eye contact with me, making me feel a little more nervous. "no i'm not mad at you. it was just unnecessary, that's all." her robotic tone sadden me as i watched walk to her table.

that sadness turned into frustration as i take a seat with kairi and alejandro.

"woah what happened to your lip?" alejandro said, taking a closer look.

"did you get in a fight with someone?" kairi asked, trying to touch it.

"knock it off," i slap his hand. "yeah, should've seen the other guy."

"who was the other guy?" alejandro laughed.

"dylan turner," i answered.

"like y/n's boyfriend?" kairi raised his eyebrow. "why were you guys fighting huh?" he nudges me.

"cause he was being little piece of shit. and he's not her boyfriend," i corrected him.

"i bet that makes you happy," alejandro winked. "so what i'm hearing is no more jenna?"

"honestly, i haven't even been thinking about her," i mumble. "and y/n and i are just friends. she's been dealing with some shit only i know about."

"they always start off as friends," said kairi. "might as well call off the bet at who can get the most girls. cause i'm guessing you only got your eye on one person."

i turn around and look at y/n sitting with her friends. "mhm." he got that right.
