**70. Kerria.**

Ami Mizuno passed consultation like every day. She liked contact with people, especially with children. Her specialty was more focused on research but didn´t that mean she could not enjoy the children and the people she came to help. After many years as a warrior, being able to do something for people was very important to her. Her mother certainly was very proud. That promise that she made as a child had become a reality. Now, mother and daughter were two reputable doctors. After seeing a few patients in a fairly quiet day she returned home. She wanted to have time to rest a little. In a few days she should travel to New York for some presentations on cutting-edge medicine. Then she hoped to see Bertie, Roy and their godchildren then. Before leaving, maybe she would call the other girls, to see how they were doing. But she did not have to think about that much. Usagi was waiting for her at the door. She smiled full of joy when she saw her. In the last months her friend had been very elusive.

- How long without seeing you! How do things go to my colleague Mamoru and you? - She wanted to know with a smile.

However the expression of the interpellated was not jovial, rather it was serious, not to say saddened. Ami immediately noticed that.

-Is everything all right? - She inquired, already with more concern.-

-I have to tell you something. - Her old fighting partner told her.- May I come in.

- Of course

The two entered and the doctor offered her friend some tea, although she politely refused it. She wanted to get straight to the point. After chatting for a few moments and listening to what her friend explained, Ami's face paled. She could barely say

-I have to call Bertie! She has to know this...

-No, you cannot call her - Usagi stopped her with a gesture to declare. - As in other occasions, it is something that must happen. And we cannot even be there. Everything will have to happen without our presence.

-But. - Do you know what you are asking me to do? - Ami was outraged, affirming with anger and disbelief. - She is my goddaughter. For God's sake! I helped her mother to bring her into the world and you are asking me to stay on the sidelines.

-I know very well what I am asking you. - Her interlocutor sighed with reflexive air, to sentence. - But if you trust me you will do what I have told you. It is something that only they can face. And I know very well how that hurts. You too because you have already seen it.

-Because of it. - She begged her friend.- Let's prevent it from happening. Please!

-You know that all this is part of something very important. - Usagi declared with regret, affirming.- And that sometimes painful sacrifices must be made to bring the plan to a good end.

-How can I go to New York and not even go to see them? - The doctor asked now with visible anxiety.-

- I am sorry. - It is the only thing that her companion responded by posing a hand on her interlocutor´s shoulders to say goodbye. - I must go. I hope we see each other soon and with better news. I only ask you to trust me Ami, and above all, to trust them.

            Dr. Mizuno was left without knowing what to reply, seeing her friend leave. Then, without stopping to think about that, she went up to her apartment, to see if she could try to rest, imagining that as an impossible task. She fought hard not to pick up the phone and call her friend. Several times she had the device in her hands and many others released it. Finally, between tears, she gave up on that idea.

-Usagi-chan, I just hope you're right.... - She thought full of anxiety.-

Parallel in America, like every day, after finishing her classes, Amethyst went to the changing room to start her sports activities. As soon as she entered, she heard the girls whispering. They whispered something that she could not understand well, it was when she approached them when she could hear them clearly.

- I think we should tell her, - one of those girls said to the others as soon as they noticed her presence. - She knows her more and maybe she knows something.- The others nodded, Amethyst very intrigued and realizing that those whispers were directed to her, she asked.-

-Tell me girls, what happen to you? - She questioned them with reproachful and direct air as was her habit. - You are very rare lately. You almost never talk to Kerria and me.

It had been that way for a few days. It started shortly after Kerria's birthday party. Although she did not give it much importance, Amethyst was surprised that some of her companions were not. Not that they refused outright, but rather that they wielded prearranged appointments or other commitments that didn't sound very convincing. However, that could be true. What began to surprise the young French woman is that most of the members of the swim team waited for Kerria to leave to shower or did it quickly before she entered. Although it didn't have to mean anything in particular, they might just be in a hurry to go somewhere else. So she waited for the explanations that her companions were going to give her.

- It's not for you Amethyst, - one of the girls, named Loren, quite a friend of hers, answered. - I assure you. It is nothing to do with you.

- I do not understand you at all. What are you trying to tell me? - Amethyst asked with a more serious face. -

Another of her companions, Karen, barely facing her interlocutor's gaze, took the floor, seemed nervous and whispered in a more conciliatory way.

- Look, we do not want to worry you, maybe it's silly. But we have thought that, since you are very close to her and also live nearby, you could tell us something.

-About what? You already know Kerria, you just have to ask her if something worries you. - The questioned answered without understanding. -

- Do not take it badly. - Another girl named Margot said to her. - But ...- there was a tense silence that Amethyst did not understand until her partner, who seemed to be weighing the words to use, dared to add visibly stiff. - Has Kerria tried anything with you?

-What? - She asked that she pretended to have heard wrong. – Tried? What do you mean?

- I want to say… yes ... well...

Margot, visibly nervous, searched again in her mind the words that she thought it could least offend her friend and spoke quickly, almost as if pretending that her partner did not understand them well. It was as if what she was saying burned her tongue if she did not pronounce it quickly.

- If she has made proposals to you, you understand me...

- But, what are you saying? - Amethyst exclaimed with a smile of disbelief. - How could you think that about Kerria? What is this… a joke? Where is the camera? - She wanted to know fearing one of those pranks that she knew well.

The girls looked uncomfortable, none seemed to want to continue talking. They felt very violent. Especially before the looks that her companion was dedicating to them between perplexity and reprobation.

- It is not a joke. - Loren could replied swallowing saliva - really, we wish it was.

-Come on now! - Amethyst interrupted her. She refused to believe it was serious and as if she guessed beforehand asked. Is not Kerria hiding around here? - She looked behind the screens of the showers but they were empty. Nor was there anyone else in the locker room. - Well, where's the camera? - She repeated with a scrutinizing look to all the places and to the face of her increasingly restless companions. -

-We mean it.- Loren insisted with an apologetic tone, adding another one of extremely worrying confidentiality. - You see, we have realized that this girl is very strange. She does not go to the dances accompanied. You understand me, she does not date any boy, unless we know. Well, she looked like she was fooling around with Brian Rice, but we haven't seen that thrive.

- And that? Maybe they prefer to show their feelings outside of school. - Amethyst opposed. -

However, she was also unaware that her friend Kerria hers was dating that boy. If so, she would surely have told her. The thing didn't stop there though, and Margot added.

-And the most suspicious of all. She spends all day with that girl, Deborah Some of us have seen them outside of school and they were in very suspicious attitudes. Not about anything specific, but that girl has a very bad reputation and it is rumored that the two are ...

Amethyst did not want to hear anymore, with a punch on the wall she cut her intimidated friend dry and snapped her indignantly.

-Stop! How do you think of talking about Kerria like that behind her back? Why do not you tell this to her face? I have spent a lot of time with her and never, do you hear me? She has never had any strange words or gestures towards me. She is my best friend and I will break the mouth of anyone who tries to slander her in front of me.

- Please. - Tracy, another of the girls in her class, with a conciliatory voice, asked. - Do not get mad at us, we do not assure anything. You are very close to her and besides, and do not be offended by what I am going to tell you, we can see the interest you have in her brother. We understand that you defend her. But look at her behavior and you will see that there is something that is not normal. I only tell you this because we all appreciate you and we would not like you to be involved in something murky, let´s say it this way, something that would damage your image.

That made her even more indignant. How dare these fools mix theirs with Leval? Or at least, her interest in that boy. She was a true friend of Kerria, not a mere interested party.

- I've heard enough nonsense for today! - Amethyst snapped finishing to put the belt on her newly kimono. - I'm going to the tatami, I have to vent and I advise you not to go over there.

         They all knew her partner's skill in martial arts, not in vain she was a brown karate belt, although they feared her explosive character even more. So neither of them dared to say anything more, although they exchanged looks of concern. The French on the part of her came out furious ready to take it out on the first one she found.

-I dont know. I don't think we should have told him anything about her. - Lana sighed, addressing the others with a mixture of regret and disapproval. -

-It is something that no longer supports delay. - Margot commented. - Look, the other day, Tracy and I saw Malden hugging that strange girl.

-A hug does not have to mean anything. - Lana opposed. -

-A hug no, but a kiss with a tongue, yes. - Tracy added, affirming to the horror of her companions. - Those two didn't notice. They were so excited they didn't notice the lockers down the hall. There is a fire hose with a glass there. They were hidden in the adjoining wall but the reflection of the two was perfectly visible. And Margot and I saw them. Guys, it was gross!

-But anyone tells Amethyst. You see how he has become because of what we have told him. - Margot sighed.

The rest nodded. Surely the Frenchwoman would have smashed her face the first time she had told her that. And there was another topic that Sandra took care to comment on.

-Although we must be careful. You know how things are now. Homophobia is very frowned upon.

-I do not know how bad it will be in other places, but in this school those things are not admissible. - Loren affirmed, adding with discomfort. - And frankly, I find it very embarrassing to be in the shower or changing with either of those two nearby. At least the "sinister" does not appear here, except when there is physical education. -She sentenced, alluding to Deborah by that nickname with which they called her disparagingly. -

-We need more evidence, something obvious that we can show Tist. - Lana replied. -Look, I don't want to lose her as a friend of mine, much less as part of our club. But you know that she and Kerria get along very well, and that her parents have known each other for years. If we do or say something that irritates her ...

-I suppose the French girl won't be ... - Tracy commented with a tinkle, adding to the stupor of her companions. - Who knows? She may hide it by pretending that she is interested in Leval and then that she and Kerria are more than friends… you understand me. And they could hang out with that Debbie.

The others looked at each other, puzzled and horrified. They wished it were not so! Although Lana did not take long to reveal them.

-Amethyst told me something that happened to her at her Lyceum, a year before she came here. I think one of the best friends of hers there was ... you know ... like these two, Malden and Hunter ... and that she hit her on. She taught her a lesson...

- Did she hit her? - Loren exclaimed, waving a hand as she sighed. - Well, I'm sorry for that other girl!

-No, she didn't hit her. But she gave her what she deserved along with other companions of hers. She has sometimes told me that she is very sorry to have gone through with it then. Therefore, I don't think she is very amused that we accuse her best friend here, without proof. It would be like making her to relive that. - Lana explained. -

-I thought you were her best friend. - Tracy commented. -

-She said it herself. - Her interlocutor admitted. -In any case, whether or not she gets along very well with Kerria. We cannot speculate without being sure.

-We'll wait for evidence. - Margot affirmed. -

- We could speak with Brian Rice, to see if he has asked her for a date. If he did it and she let him go, that would be an important clue. - Tracy proposed. -

-She doesn't have to. What if he hasn't asked because he hasn't dared yet? What if Kerria is only interested on him just as a friend? That does not prove the other at all. It does not serve us as evidence before Amethyst. Malden might even go out with him to keep up appearances. - Loren countered. -

-Well, if Kerria doesn´t want to date him, her lost. In that case, I'd ask Rice! - Sandra jokingly intervened, making the rest laugh. -

Of course, that boy was not bad and he was very nice. However, everyone knew that he had a crush on Leval's sister.

-I don't think it's a good idea to mix Rice in all this. - Lana advised against. - I'm very afraid he would go straight to tell Kerria.

-The one who did want to go out with her was Ryan, from her brother's class. And she totally passed him by. She must have been humiliating for that guy. - Karen remembered proposing with carefree. - Why don't we ask him?

Although she immediately lowered her gaze, her partner Tracy had started dating that boy a short time ago and the face she made of her clearly indicated that she did not like the suggestion that it could be the second course. Realizing that, Lana immediately wanted to avoid any controversy and took the floor to sentence, insisting on her point of view.

-That doesn't matter, that it was last year. What we must do is be very careful and do not accuse anyone of anything until we are completely certain and can prove it.

-Yes, we will keep an eye on those two and obtain whatever evidence is necessary to convince Amethyst. -Karen agreed, to close that annoying topic. -

So it was decided, and the girls finished changing and left. For her part, the Frenchwoman precisely arrived at the martial arts room, still breathing with agitation. Chance led Leval to be there doing katas. She was relaxing from her hard training with her father and Mazoui when she saw Amethyst arrive as if from a hurricane she was asking him agitated.

- Leval! I need to fight someone, but I can only do it with you. I'm afraid of hurting anyone else. You are the only one who is at my level!

- Okay, now we make an assault - He replied, surprised at that attitude, so he asked. - But what's wrong with you? You are very nervous.

- Fight and do not ask me, they are girl´s things. – Having said that, her interlocutor asked him to be on guard. - Come on! Defend yourself!

         He did not flinch, he just looked at her in surprise. The girl, irritated by that, attacked by throwing several punches and a rapid succession of kicks that Leval dodged without any difficulty.

- Fight, do not shun me! - Amethyst shouted frustrated at trying to reach him without success. -

He decided to stop the blows, blocked them all but he did not counterattack, although the girl seemed to be eager to vent something. And he supposed that this attack of Amethyst's rage would only end one way. Finally, she managed to connect a punch to the face of her rival. Leval stepped forward to receive him voluntarily and pretended to have fitted a painful blow to his nose, although, in fact, he had not noticed. After training with his father and Mazoui this was nothing more than a caress. Of course he was not going to tell her, he kept covering his nose and fortunately, to make it more credible, even he caused a bit of blood on his lip by biting it slightly. His rival panting from the effort approached him worried.

-Are you ok? - She asked visibly embarrassed going on to apologize immediately. - I'm so sorry, I did not want to hit you so hard, I was very out of control, forgive me.

- Nothing's wrong, I'm fine. - The boy replied, wiping his blood from his lip to declare. – You have a good punch. I think that for today I have had enough training.

- Yes me too. - Amethyst whispered without daring to look at him.- I must go home. I'll take a shower, that way I'll be less angry, see you tomorrow Leval, believe me, I'm sorry.

- Do not worry about this, it's nothing. By the way. What happened that makes you so angry? Can I do something to help you? Apart from serving as punching. - He insisted even looking at her surprised, but with a more casual tone. -

        However he managed to make her smile, Amethyst observed now the boy and her eyes were sad again. If Leval knew what they were saying about his sister, surely he would be as furious as she was, even more so. But she could not tell him. What's more, she expected to speak with Kerria so she could clarify things herself. But in spite of herself, she could not help but worry about her friend, lately she had not seen her too much. Almost always she wished that both of them would meet to go somewhere or to study, she had prepared some excuse. And besides, there was that Deborah who Amethyst herself did not like too much. It was really something strange and seemed very reserved for the rest of the people. Although Kerria got along very well with her, quite well of course, but that did not mean anything. She, too, got along terrifically with Kerria, and that did not mean they both had anything other than friendship. Although, there was another thing that, thinking about it more calmly and carefully, was even more worrisome. It was that her friend had not told her that she liked any particular boy. Whenever the subject came out (that is, for instance, Amethyst sighing for Leval). Kerria only encouraged her and advised her patience. To what she had asked her on some occasion.

- And do not you like any kid from school, or from outside?

Her friend replied. With serenity but giving the impression of wanting to leave that subject right away.

- There are only boring guys here or a lot of kids that only want one thing.

- They are not all like that. -Her friend retorted, surprised by that attitude and then gave an example, (before of course, that Kerria joked, alluding to the only boy who was good was her own brother and he was already asked by Amethyst.) - Brian Rice, your classmate seems a very nice kid and I even think he likes you.

And Amethyst would have sworn that her friend's gaze contained a trace of sadness when she answered in a quiet voice.

- Yes, he's a good boy. Nothing more than that...

And she invariably encouraged her tone to change the conversation and she did not dare to insist on the matter. In any case, she had never given too much importance to that, she was too busy with her own love interest. And that same interest spoke to her now, making her come out of her reflections.

- Won´t you have discussed with my sister? Will you?

Amethyst almost jumped when she heard that, but then she smiled and shook her head and said with more carelessness.

- No, of course, not! It's just nonsense, I already told you, things that are between girls. There are always jealousies and the occasional quarrel, but it is not important at all. - She assured him with a forced smile when she added. - It's been a while since I've seen Kerria. We are both very busy.

- Well, I think today she wanted to come here to play paddle with a friend. - Leval commented. - Maybe you can see her if you stay a while longer. My sister told me that they like to come late to find the free courts.

- Thank you. - She smiled again, trying to avoid that the boy realized the skip of her bit in her heart while listening to him. - Now I feel much better...

- Well, I hope your anger passes soon. Now I have to go. - He smiled in turn leaving her to go to his changing rooms. -

         She nodded and just stood there, doing some stretches for a while. She was already calmer. She knew that Leval had allowed himself to be beaten, perhaps he did it so that she could vent to someone. The poor boy had been the target of her anger, she had accumulated and discharged all her rage against him as if it were the group of those stupid girls in the locker room.

-She Precisely she had to be with him. With the last person I wish to hit. - She sighed she shaking her head. -

Anyway, it was late and she guessed that Kerria was about to arrive. He could talk to her alone since there was practically no one left. In an attempt to see if her friend was there, she decided to approach the paddle tennis courts that were located outside the gym. These consisted of a small fenced enclosure and were visible through a glass. Amethyst walked over and took a look, she could indeed spot Kerria and that Debbie playing. She sighed in relief. What was wrong with that? Really, her companions were gossips.

-Those idiots would have to see you now and swallow your words. She said to herself not without indignation. How dare they slander them like that?

She so she calmer she went to the shower to be ready when her friend arrived. It would be better to walk away and say nothing to Kerria. The next day she would be in charge of talking to the others to reprimand them for her unfounded gossip. And she was determined to get into the locker room when she remembered that she had left her mitts on her mat. Sighing in resignation, she went there to pick them up.

-Well, I hope they haven't already closed. - She told herself with annoyance. -

            Meanwhile, Kerria and Debbie, played effectively, a disputed paddle game. They had been a while when Amethyst saw them, and it took only a few minutes after that to finish. They were sweaty so they went to the locker room to shower. At that time it was empty. It was already quite late, they both undressed quickly. Debbie told her friend between gasps of exhaustion.

- I'm exhausted, here you are even more terrible than in bed.

- We'll see! – Kerria laughed, hugging her and stroking her back. – Ha, ha, ha…

- Let's go to the shower, - Debbie proposed, adding with a sweet voice. - It's big and we'll both fit into.

- Are you crazy? - Her interlocutor exclaimed. - What if someone came in and saw us?

- No one is left at this time. - Debbie assured her partner, adding with total peace of mind. - I looked before coming and everything is deserted. Come on, do not you like it to try? At least it makes me very morbid to do it in a public place ... besides. Tomorrow I have to go to Los Angeles. My parents are back and they want me to go with them.

-To visit your sister? - Kerria inquired. -

-Yes, she has a brief permission and we have not seen each other for a long time. - Deborah commented as she took her clothes out of the box office.-

-One day you will explain your taste for black. - Her friend smiled.-

-The Goth roll and the magic things suit to me. - Her interlocutor confessed, adding with a tinge of inciting voice. - Although there are things that I like even more. Come with me and I'll show you some...

          The interpellated nodded and allowed herself to be led by the hand, both of them went inside closing the screen, laughing as the water fell, drowning their gasps. They enjoyed rubbing each other with the bath gel...

-Ah! - Kerria sighed whispering in her partner's ear. - Be careful, I'm tickling around...

-You shouldn't have said that. Her partner smiled, reinforcing her particular massage precisely in that area so compromised. -

Kerria laughed and went on the counterattack. Although Debbie barely tickled, but she did enjoy the touch of her girlfriend in her depending on what parts.

-Leave something for later. -She asked him between gasps.-

       And she gave her a few kisses on Kerria's wet chest and neck, who was quick to reciprocate.   For her part Amethyst arrived tired, she had to look for the gloves between the glooms, since the lighting of the martial arts enclosure had already been extinguished. It took a while for her to distinguish them from the white background of the tatami. As soon as she entered the locker room she heard the noise of the water and laughers, and on one of the benches she saw clothes that were Kerria's. It must be her, although there were other girl's clothes too. She did not want to say anything and got undressed leaving her things inside her locker and taking out the gel and the towel. Approaching that shower and listening carefully she recognized the voice of her friend and looking at the screen discovered two embracing silhouettes. She quickly got into a shower that was separated from them. The water stopped running. The screen opened. Amethyst saw through that a crack and could see her friend come out accompanied by an attractive brunette girl. It was that Debbie. What the hell were they doing in the same shower?

-They'll be playing. - The girl muttered to herself, although with little conviction, wanted to think. - That does not mean anything.

            But what she saw next did mean a lot. Before her surprised eyes her friend and that girl shared a long and passionate kiss. Embraced, they played with their tongues. Then they separated but it was even worse. The girl licked Kerria's breasts, allowing herself to be charmed by stroking her hair, then crouched down. Amethyst, incredulous and paralyzed by fright, saw clearly how her friend licked and kissed the pubis of that girl.

-Oh yes, Kerria! - The other one was panting with a libidinous voice - do not stop please!

             For a few seconds, which for the involuntary witness were eternal, Kerria continued. Then she lay down on one of the benches and it was Debbie who took over. The other girl caressed her long light brown braid and also her most intimate parts.

- Oh my God! - Amethyst thought that she could hardly breathe because of the disgust and horror that this caused her. - It was true! They should not know that I am here, that they do not discover me! I could not stand it. Nobody should know. What would happen to her here? Oh Kerria! Why? You too, damn it! Not again!

            She could not take that, that girl, her best friend in this new life, the one who had been her confidant and with whom she had been most closely united. Exactly the same as what happened in Paris, this was a damn mockery of fate! Why with her? Amethyst did not like that kind of people at all, and what it was worse, she felt betrayed. Anyway, she did not want to act the same as she did in her high school. But she could not look at her again. She would always see her hugging that girl and making love, touching her and being touched in that way by another woman! What if Kerria had wanted to do the same with her? That was the same as what happened to Michelle. Oh God!. It came to her memory the first time they both met in that same wardrobe, when she came out of the semi-nude shower and Kerria's face when she saw her. Then she took herself as paranoid. It could not be repeated, but it had been repeated! And in a new burst of suspicion. What if she had pretended to help her with Leval just to be near her? Until, of course, she met and started dating that other one. That's why she had not seen her for so long. She moved her head with the tears falling down her cheeks and refused to look any further, but fortunately Kerria and Debbie stopped giving each other up and dried off, dressed and both left clinging to each other's waist.

-I'm going to miss you these days. - Kerria affirmed as they left. -

-Don't get involved with anyone else until I get back, eh? - Debbie asked with a joking tone. Adding her with intention and some touch. - Not even with that French girl.

-Amethyst, she is very hot and sometime, at the beginning of meeting her, I do not tell you that it did not cross my mind. But don't worry, darling, she is only my friend, and now I am your girlfriend and I am faithful. She smiled, continuing the joke, pretending to be disenchanted when sentencing. - And besides, she likes another member of my family.

- Or, rather, another of your family with a member! She misses it. And I get happy! - Debbie laughed. -

The two of them left laughing at that. However, the aforementioned she gave her heart a skip. How could Kerria have said such a thing? Amethyst was shocked. So much so that it took her a few seconds to dare to give the water and shower. She came home still shocked. Pretending tiredness, she greeted her parents in passing and went up to her room, holding back so as not to cry. Also back home Kerria greeted her parents. She instead arrived happy, then she saw her brother Leval hers.

Amethyst took a few seconds to dare to give the water and shower. She returned home still impressed. She greeted her parents in passing and went up to her room, restraining herself from crying. Also back home, Kerria greeted her parents. She, on the other hand, was happy, so she saw her brother Leval.

- Hello brother -, she laughed, stroking his hair and asked him jovially. - How's your workouts?

-Well, - he replied that he said funny. - By the way, today I had a fight against Amethyst.

-Amethyst? - The young girl asked surprised. Adding with some trepidation - Are you back with those challenges of yours? you will not have hurt her, right? You are very rough.

- No, you can´t be more wrong! – Leval laughed, showing his lip that was almost scarred. - It was she who hurt me, she was very angry, I do not know why but she wanted to vent. Stuff of girls, she told me. And also that it was a long time since you both saw each other. I told her that you would be late to play paddle and that if she waited for you she would find you there. Have not you seen her?

- No - Her sister denied shrugging to guess. - Surely she will have tired of waiting and will have gone home. I'll call her to see what she wants.

- Well, let's see if you get her to tell you what worries her so much. - Her brother replied. - She did not seem to be at all calm.

             Kerria smiled, this Leval was stupid! Surely the poor Amethyst was tired of him not paying attention to her. She pitied her for it....

-You will not know how to call the attention of this brother so bad that I have and she will have decided to try it beastly, with a hit! typical of her. - The funny girl thought, to add laughing. - Bye.

            Leval nodded and went to his room, he had to study. Kerria went up to hers. Before she greeted her parents who observed her satisfied. For a while now, her behavior had improved a lot, her grades had increased and she was seen studying a lot. Besides, she did not date any boy, she did not even care about them. Roy and Beruche, far from make themselves disturbed for that facts, felt that this was a test of goodwill on the part of their daughter who wanted to focus on their studies. So things like that Kerria, still smiling, called her friend. The phone rang and Amethyst picked it up.

-Hallo. - She asked, more calmly. -

- Hello Amethyst, it's me. - Her friend jovially greeted to ask. - Where did you go, sis? My brother just told me that today you gave him a good beating.

-Hey? – The interpellated that was again altered exclaimed. - What? ...

And her heart was beating a hundred miles per hour, she did not expect to have to talk to Kerria now, she was definitely not ready for that, for God's sake! She had to shout at her, reproach her, insult her, and scold her for what she had seen. But it only occurred to her to say with a shy tone.

-I'm sorry, I crossed the line a little bit, I was angry, that's all.

- And I imagine why, silly you, having waited for me to finish and we had talked about it! -

Amethyst felt her heart skip a beat and her stomach tingle. How could she say that so naturally, and it even seemed that with rejoicing? Did she and Debbie know she had been watching them? So recurring to all her self- control she dared to ask.

- Talk about what?

- Do not be silly, you know it too well. - Kerria replied casually to qualify. - What happened this afternoon? What worries you so much? Do not be silly, it's nothing you should worry about. Actually, if you take it easy, you can even take advantage of it. It's a long story to tell on the phone. Look, we´ll meet in my house alone and I'll explain it to you.

             Amethyst did not leave her amazement. The tension she was suffering was already overflowing. Was Kerria insinuating her? She could not take it anymore and on the defensive, she snapped.

-What the hell you want to tell me? Speak clearly!

Her interlocutor was surprised, what would happen to her to answer like that? So she responded with a conciliatory tone and something annoying at the same time.

- Well, girl, there is no way to get that way, the fact that my brother is stupid and does not pay attention to you does not mean that I am to blame. I just wanted to tell you the best way to take advantage of his hobbies, you can go to some planetarium or things like that with him.- And as Amethyst said nothing, Kerria wanted to know with worried impatience. - What's wrong? Is something not going well at home?

            Her friend sighed in relief, so Kerria thought it was about that.

- I am sorry. - She apologized with a long sigh and improvised. - I was nervous. I feel lost with him, it's true, you're right.

- Do not worry, it does not matter. - Kerria encouraged her conviviality recovering the joviality to insist. - Look, I'll tell you what we can do. Tomorrow my parents have to leave and my brother trains. I had plans but I can cancel them. I do not think my friend is going to be jealous! Also, she has to go on a trip ... You'll have me everything for you, ha, ha ...

And laughed at that occurrence as if that joke was the most innocent of the world but Amethyst had a lump in her throat just by listening to it, and then Kerria proposed with a voice, too affectionate in the opinion of her interlocutor.

- Did we meet to eat at my house? An evening among girls, to draw a plan. And since we put on we had a good time together.

-To eat? the two of us alone? - Amethyst asked alarmed.-

What had previously seemed an innocent proposal to her now sounded like a dishonest proposition, full of double meaning. As if her friend was trying to seduce her with every word. Besides, what would it mean to have a good time?

- Of course, with whom else. – Her friend retorted. But Kerria, who now added surprised. - Really, what's wrong with you? You are very strange

- No, nothing, you see, tomorrow I cannot. – Amethyst barely babbled. - We'll see each other at the school, right?

- Tomorrow we'll go to pick you up. As usual. - Her interlocutor told her. -

- I would prefer not, is that I will leave early - her friend answered her adding with a sense of vagueness - we'll see each other, now I have to hang up. Goodbye…

Kerria stayed with the cell phone in her hand, looking at the end of call sign and the name "Tist" with which she had her friend tagged, she was even more surprised. What was happening to Amethyst? That was not her way of behaving about her, had something else happened that neither Leval nor she had wanted to tell her? But she didn't notice anything special about her brother. And he certainly was an open book to capture his emotions. Surely it was the eagerness of that poor girl to like him. The poor thing must be frustrated. She didn't even want to be picked up anymore. Surely the mere sight of Leval would be enough to make her blush.

-Poor Amethyst. - She smiled, reflecting. -I would like to know that he will haunt her head. It is not like her to seem so insecure ... although deep down she is much more shy than she wants to show. Anyway, we all have a hidden part. Yes I know it perfectly!

Well, tomorrow she would know, but that night she was too happy to worry. So she shrugged and went down to dinner. For her part Amethyst was not too hungry that night, she was very thoughtful and her mother noticed.

-What's wrong sweetheart? You have hardly touched dinner. - Emerald asked.

-Nothing, is that I'm not hungry. I'm rather tired. -She could say.-

- Is that because you do not stop doing sports at all hours. That is why. - Her mother retorted with that admonitory tone that used to put every time she cared about something. - It would be better for you to rest more. If not, you're going to fall ill. Truth Diamond? - She asked her husband for support.-

- Be careful, in training the key is not to force the body too much or it could be counterproductive. That was taught to me by an old teacher of mine. - He completed the question. - It happened to him once. He trained so much that one day he could not control it...

-He couldn´t control it? - His wife was surprised.-

-At least that's what he told us. Sometimes he exaggerated a little to tease us. - Her husband answered making a sign.-

Emerald nodded. That should be part of that special training that her husband and his group of classmates did in the Corner of Soul and Time. And that, of course, he could not tell his daughter. However, Amethyst seemed to be somewhere else. She had not even paid attention to that comment.

-Daughter. Are you okay? - The fashion designer was interested observing her with concern to repeat. - You should not force yourself so much. You are a great athlete but you have limitations like anybody else.

Emerald was already ready to hear the typical replica of her daughter in those cases. Although, to her and her husband's surprise, the girl did not refute that or get angry, on the contrary, she nodded and could admit without palliatives.

-You're right. Maybe I've been too exaggerated with doing so much sport. I'll have to be more careful. If you do not mind, I'd rather lie down now.

Now it was her mother who looked at her with her mouth open and could ask, not without concern.

-Sweetie. Are you really okay?

-Yes- the girl smiled, sentencing.- As soon as I fall asleep and rest assured that in the morning I will be much better.

- That you rest then, daughter.- His father wished her goodnight by getting up and giving her a kiss on the forehead. Then he walked away to his office.

-Good evening.- Amethyst said giving her mother a kiss and going up to her room.-

But Emerald remained pensive, her instinct telling her that something was not right. It could be that her daughter had some problem, but being a teenager perhaps the most trivial thing was for her something terrible. For the moment she would let it go, but she would watch over the girl's behavior. For her part, Amethyst that night she slept badly, she could not get away from her mind the image of her friend with that girl. She remembered the bad experience there in Paris, she could not bear it to happen again, not with Kerria...

-Once again no. - She was already lying down. - I cannot go through this again...

The next day Leval and her sister got up and had breakfast. It was Leval who commented.

-Did not we pick up Amethyst?

- She told me last night that she would leave soon. - His interlocutor answered.-

-Maybe she has plans. Maybe she's seeing someone. - The boy guessed. -

-That is what she would like! - Kerria sighed with a funny gesture.-

- Did you say anything? - The boy inquired because he had not understood that.-

-Nothing. - The girl smiled.- Come on, come on, otherwise it's going to be late for us.

- This is new! - Leval scoffed. - My little sister wanting to get to the school soon. Maybe she has a handsome boy waiting for her...

-What a fool you are sometimes! - The young woman replied, shaking her head. -

-Hey, it is said that you have some fans among the guys in your class. And even among the elderly. - Then confided her brother.-

-Ah really? - She inquired playing the role of innocent, although of course she already knew. - And whose are those fans?

-Well, apart from my poor friend Ryan. - Leval smiled. - I think the captain of the baseball team likes you ... He's not a bad guy. Besides, he is a course below me.

-It's a pity that I do not care much about baseball, I prefer basketball! - She laughed.-

What she did not specify is that she was more interested in some of the cheer leaders than in the players. She laughed alone with that consideration. However, Leval, thinking that it was something else, smiled in turn to add amusement.

-I'll have to investigate to see who of the team has managed to get my demanding little sister to notice him ... It must be that you like tall guys. Although, in my opinion, none of those are not reliable...

-Now you're going to say the same as dad. - Kerria laughed, quoting his father to fake a serious voice and sentenced. - Beware of those, daughter. That they only want one thing from the girls. I hope you do not become a cheerleader. – She laughed adding ironically. –That is precisely what I need, go around with miniskirts and pompoms...

-There's nothing wrong with it, our aunt Connie was cheerleader. - Leval reminded her. -And she ended up married to Uncle Tom.

Kerria shook her head, this was an exception that proved the rule. And of course, having some kind of relationship with one of those guys was not the idea she had in mind. Although as she had thought before, hooking up with one of the cheerleaders would not have been something that displeased her. Yet she now she had someone in her heart. And what she said to Deborah, albeit in a humorous tone, was strictly true. She was faithful to the person she loved. In fact, she sighed causing her brother to charge again.

-Do you know something? Of all the candidates that circulate there for you, there is only one that I think is appropriate.

-Wow! ... What luck I have, you've already looked for a boyfriend to me, that is very kind of you. - She smiled mischievously.-

-No, seriously. - His interlocutor replied now. - What's wrong with Brian?

-Brian? - The young woman said surprised, leaving now her smiling gesture and asking. - What do you mean? ...There is nothing wrong with him.

-It is commented that he very interested in you. And I know that this guy, unlike others, does not go by ... you understand me.

-It is a good companion and a friend. Nothing more. - She stated sharply.-

Her brother looked at her strangely. Suddenly Kerria had put aside that teasing tone and she even seemed annoyed. She let it go. Maybe she would have hit the bull's-eye. That boy was a neighbor of hers and a good guy. About the age of her sister, although she seemed quite old due to her responsibility. On the side of her, Kerria sighed trying to calm herself. She had jumped almost helplessly. And just thinking that this boy could be encouraged to ask her for something serious worried her. She was very fond of him and she did not want to hurt his feelings at all.

-Sorry Leval. I do not know why I have answered you like this. - She added immediately her with haste. -

-Don't worry, potato face! - He replied affably, squeezing her sister a little with one of his arms, to add humorously. - You're too ugly for Brian to notice you! What happens is that he is very polite.

- Hey! How is ugly? Are you a fool? - She replied that yes, wanting to joke again. -

Leval smiled, his sister was much better this way. He didn't understand why she had jumped like that. Although he knew that she liked her neighbor very well, and surely she was not as indifferent as she wanted to show. Anyway, better not to insist. Anyway, they were already at the institute, they said goodbye until the end of the classes and she went to her classroom. She was surprised, almost all of her companions avoided her, some boys stared at her, smiled and whispered among themselves. It was weird, she started to feel uncomfortable. She saw precisely Brian then, that boy from her class so nice, she approached him.

- Wow! -She thought she a little embarrassed. - If the poor man knew what my brother and I have been talking about ...

Although that boy would not have the slightest idea. Still, he gave the impression of being tense. And that was confirmed when he greeted her, he looked around as if others were watching them. Which was true, although her interlocutor did not notice it at first.

- Hello, Kerria. - He greeted timidly looking at several sides as if the others were watching them, which was true, although the girl at first did not notice. - Good Morning. How are you?

- Ah, hello Brian. - She smiled somewhat stiffly remembering her brother's comment. - What's up?

Of course that guy liked her, he was nice, of the few who were not always getting their noses where they did not belong. Besides, he was always very kind to her and changing gears Kerria needed a favor. So she asked.

- Could you explain the last thing about mathematics to me? I have not understood anything for a week. Actually, I've been somewhat distracted lately.

At least since she was serious with Debbie, but of course, she was not going to say that. Anyway, she was always more about letters.

- Of course. - He smiled, objecting immediately. - But when? Tomorrow we have no class.

- Tomorrow, come home if you want. Or better, I do not want to bother you, where will you be, in your house? I'll go if your parents are okay. - She answered kindly. -

- No, it's not a bother at all. - He hastened to say that he seemed nervous when he proposed not exempt from shyness. - I will pass by your house if it does not hurt and your parents do not care.

-To them? – Kerria replied fun. -But I'm the one who asked you for the favor! Do not worry. You are so nice! , my parents will be happy that a boy enters my room just to study. - As he looked at her in astonishment, she explained. - You already know what the parents think, they always believe it can be for something else.

She smiled then giving to the boy a grateful kiss on the cheek and Brian blushed as he whispered in a friendly and even sympathetic tone, combined with some nervousness and prevention.

- Do not worry, I do not believe anything they say.

-What? - She asked, looking at him without understanding. -What do you mean?

            The boy seemed to get even more nervous, no doubt he thought he had talked more than necessary. He answered almost with a whisper.

- It's nothing, I'll see you later. - And he left walking quickly towards his class leaving Kerria confused. -

The young woman noticed now that a group of companions had been watching them but as soon as she observed them they quickly dispersed away in the corridor ... She thought she recognized some of the classmates, including that Lory and that other one, Lana, friends of Amethyst. But she shrugged without giving it any importance and went to her classroom. Surely it had something to do with what Leval told him. Seeing her talking to Brian, those gossipers would be making their calculations. Of course. They could not go more misguided! Anyway, it was clear that something was happening. During school hours she would swear that some of her classmates were whispering at her with malice and others with contempt and even hostility. That was not normal anymore. So she waited until classes were over and went to the gym. She did not want to ask anyone, she thought maybe she was somewhat paranoid, so she decided that some exercise would help her relax. She entered the dressing room and discovered Amethyst along with other girls, her friend was getting undressed to put on the tracksuit. She smiled, eager to see if she could get something out of her. Although, as soon as she saw her enter, the others blatantly gave her back, pretending she was not there.

-What's happening here? - Kerria asked surprised, but none answered. - Can I know what are you doing?

            The others looked at her furtively. It had happened that yesterday, apart from Amethyst, one of the girls, Tracie, saw Kerria and Debbie playing paddle. And when they finished she followed them to the changing rooms and spied from the entrance without being seen. She could surprise them while removing their clothes they kissed and kissed each other.

- What a couple of disgusting dykes! So we were right. She told herself with a mixture of revulsion and satisfaction. - I have to warn the others.

So she ran away when they both entered the same shower and from a distance she saw Amethyst arrive with mittens in her hand. She did not dare to say anything to her because she was afraid that she would hit her, but afterwards she had been waiting for her to leave and her vigilance paid off. As they left the locker room, Kerria and Debbie had stopped to kiss passionately under the cover of a lonely hallway, holding each other by the waist. Both had also dedicated quite hot phrases and that girl, hidden from their sight, had heard and seen everything together with another of her friends, Karen, to whom she was able to warn as this was happening.

-No wonder she dumped Ryan , and I'm not saying that to annoy you. Sorry about before. - Karen apologized. -

-Do not worry. Tracy affirmed with a mixture of disgust and fascination, as she watched those two, to comment. -When he finds out about this he will be even more glad to go out with me. What a disappointment it would be to him dating that dyke! Ha ha!

They even tried to record it on their mobile, although luckily for Kerria, the hallway was too dark for her to see clearly. However, both witnesses, as soon as they arrived this morning, had lacked the time to tell the others. And this time Amethyst listened to them in dismay and did not protest. When they asked her why, to her regret, she had to admit that she saw it too. And that she did not want to refer to what happened in the locker room. Now Kerria, oblivious to all this, looked at them all puzzled, while she asked.

-What is happening here? ...- there was a tense silence that nobody dared to break. -What's going on? Is not one going to answer me? - She inquired again, beginning to get seriously annoyed and what was worse to worry -...

- Get out! - answered an anonymous voice at last. - We do not want gays around here.

- Yes, go with your girlfriend! - Added another in a chorus of muffled giggles. -

- We want to change quietly, go to the boys' locker room. There will be nothing there that could interest you. She was urged by a third voice behind her. -

            The others laughed now openly, but they were nervous laughter, charged with tension and displeasure. Shocked, Kerria understood what was happening. It was not because of Brian, or any of the other suitors with whom her classmates had associated her until then. She wish it had been that, unfortunately her condition was no longer a secret. But Amethyst was there, surely her friend would be on her side. Although the seconds passed and the French girl did not do or say anything.

-What does all this mean, Amethyst? - She asked her, wanting to hear a friendly voice. -

The aforementioned did not turn her back on her, but she was naked. She could not say a word or knew what to say, but when she met her gaze with her interlocutor's, she instinctively covered herself with her towel. She could not forget what she had seen. She thought of her as if she was a boy who had sneaked up there to spy on them, eager to do that kind of things with them all. Then Kerria understood feeling very hurt that even her best friend thought like those other stupid.

-You too? - She asked with a sigh of great sadness. - We have seen each other naked many times and now you are ashamed. - The interpellated one lowered the head without saying anything. - I understand. No matter how many times we have talked together. You have been in my house and I have been in yours. And I never ... Please! Amethyst we are friends!

She approached her with an imploring look, seeking her understanding, but the questioned instinctively moved away.

-No please. Kerria, I respect you, but understand that it is not the same. - She was able to respond nervously, covering herself even more. - It's not, it's not...

- It was that - The girl then intuited remembering the talk yesterday. - You ...- She could not finish, because the sobs choked her throat. - You thought that...

- I saw you, with that girl - Her interlocutor could complete also about to mourn. -And I heard you, what you said about me ...

Kerria had a lump in her throat. That was just a joke. But of course, after her friend saw her with Debbie like that.

- I would never think of you that way! - She assured her with sadness and despair. -

For a few agonizing moments that became eternal, her friend did not respond. She was barely able to move her head slightly and close her eyes. She didn't want to look at her face. Perhaps this was the only way she had the courage to finally answer.

-I'm so sorry, Ky. But I can't believe you. After what I saw, I ...

Kerria dropped a couple of tears. But she quickly wiped them away. She wasn't going to give those bitches the satisfaction of sinking her. So, after a few moments of trying to compose herself, she spoke up. Addressing Amethyst first.

- Then it will be better that you turn your back on me and laugh at me like the others. - The aforementioned responded by overcoming the babbling to speak in a sharp and dyed with sarcasm regret. - I do not want the same thing happening to you. They might think you are like me.

- No, you do not deserve to be treated like that. - Amethyst murmured between sobs. - You're a good girl, even if you’re...

She fell silent in the middle of the sentence not wanting to hurt her friend anymore, but this one was already pretty hurt in her heart.

-Say it! - Kerria snapped with a tone tinged with anger and sadness. - Even if I am homosexual, right? Yes, because I'm gay, I'm a lesbian! Do you hear me all? - She shouted furiously. - Well, now you know for sure! You will not have to whisper and to guess anymore – Then she turned to Amethyst again and added, her voice with indignant reproach. - You say you're my friend, but you cannot hide the disgust I produce in you. But do not worry, do not worry about that any of you, I would never want to have anything to do with people like you. You can change calmly.

            None dared to replicate anything, of course they did not expect that reaction. They all thought that this girl would walk away embarrassed but now they were the ones who wanted to get out of there. Amethyst on the other hand was trembling and tears were falling down her cheeks. But Kerria was the one who decided to leave trying not to cry, she did not want to humiliate herself in that way.

- I am sorry. - Amethyst whispered in a choked voice. -I did not intend...

            But her friend did not want to listen anymore, she ran as fast as she could to get away from there. She struggled not to cry although she lost the battle along the way. Leval, at that moment had finished training when some guys from another class crossed paths with him. One of them laughed while saying to the others.

- Have you heard guys? I cannot believe it! - He pointed to the young man to see him to ironically hammer. - I hope it's not a family feature.

- Do you have any problem, my friend? - The aforementioned asked him, realizing that they were talking about him. -

- I am not! – The guy laughed shamelessly to add sarcastically. - But you do. We've heard that Amethyst, the French girl of second course is crazy about someone in your family.

-Do not tell me who? - Leval smiled, thinking that it was the typical joke about he and the girls who were after him, so he denied. - Well, she has not told me anything.

- It is because maybe she has already changed her preferences and is not you who she is interested for. She is such a friend of your sister! – Another guy, mocked. -

- Hey! What do you mean by that? - The questioned asked annoyed by the bad taste of that tone and that suggestion. -

- We mean that if you neglect, honey, your sister will steal your girlfriend from you. - Another girl, brunette and short, who was with those guys, laughed, adding with a tinkle. - But calm down, you can have me. I am not into women.

- If this is a joke, it's not funny! - The boy was outraged by this insulting comment. -

- It's no joke, man the news is flying. – Another of these guys answered. - Especially if they are so interesting. - And he finished in a resentful tone. - Now I understand why she did not date any of us. She will have swollen to flirt in her dressing rooms. LOL…

Leval, whose patience had overflowed, faced that guy holding him by the neck and raising him almost half a meter from the ground to shout at him.

-Stop right now what you said about my sister or I'll break your face, asshole!

             The boy, visibly scared, did not dare to speak, but it was the girl who told him in a defiant attitude.

- It's the truth, are you going to hit me too? I met her in the locker room and you can´t imagine how she looked at me, she and her friend Debbie, everyone knows. And they also saw them yesterday. If you want closing your eyes is your problem, boy. Your sister is an invert and I have my doubts with you. Is not it that Amethyst prefers her before you?

-If you were not a girl, I would make you swallow what you said! - The boy yelled, out of his temper as he threw the other boy several meters away, making him fall against the cold marble. -

             The others recoiled in fear, they had never seen him so angry. Leval smashed the wall with a punch by making a hole in the cement and challenged them all.

- Now, do anyone more want to add something? Come on! , that has the guts to tell me to the face, it will be the last thing that says! Whether boy or girl. – He snapped, looking at that stupid girl who, visibly scared, instinctively backed against the wall. - Come on!

            Nobody even dared to look at him, the whole group, including the girl, was petrified with fear. But since that was not enough, he was determined to demand a clear apology.

-Let's see. What did you call my sister? - Leval howled at the guy he had knocked down who quickly fell back against a wall snuggling up beside him.-

- Na, nothing! - This one could babble visibly terrified. -

But he was going to pick him up again to force him to retract until the tearful voice of his own sister behind him to stop . When he turned around and could see her, his heart sank. Kerria's face was ravaged by tears and she even trembled. As soon as she seemed to be standing, she seemed totally sunken and humiliated. The others lowered their heads, leaving quickly. Like the boy who, now free of Leval's attention, got up as fast as he could to run away with his companions.

-Ky! - His brother assured her with concern, trying to calm down to see her cry. - I swear those bastards will swallow everything they said, tell me who started with this. And I...

- No, Leval, - she shook her head. - Nobody has started, only me ... - And then she hugged him, without looking at his face, or would not have enough courage to confess. - What you've heard about me is true. I ... I am...

              She could not complete that. She felt too embarrassed and guilty. Now her brother was going to suffer also for her cause. Surely he would be angry and ashamed of her. Nevertheless, the boy moved slowly to raise her chin and look into her eyes. He watched her with his mouth open, unable to believe it. She held his gaze for what she could. Until she broke down crying hugged him again.

-I'm sorry, please forgive me! I did not want you to be humiliated because of me. It's something I cannot avoid. All the girls have turned their backs on me, none of my classmates speaks to me.

- It cannot be, not all will be like that - Leval mused stroking his sister's hair and adding then with some hope. - Surely Amethyst will help you.

- She does not understand either, Leval. I thought she was my friend. But I looked into her eyes and she was ashamed of me. Only Brian has been good to me.

- I cannot believe that Amethyst has done that. - Leval said in astonishment, although now he was beginning to understand that perhaps, that girl's anger and rage were justified by this. - There must be an explanation.

- She did not turn her back on me like the others, but she was so uncomfortable and so scared of me. She looked at me like she was seeing a monster. Oh God! That was the worst thing of all! - Kerria sobbed dissolving into moans. -

- Calm down, let's go back home. - He whispered surrounding his sister with an arm overcoming his anger and pain as best he could. - Come on Ky.  At home you will be safe - He tried to encourage her with sweetness by stating decisively - I am your brother and I love you. I'm not going to leave you alone. I will never be ashamed of you. Besides, you have nothing to be ashamed of. It is your life and your decision. And I will break the face of anyone who would hurt you anymore...

-No Please! I do not want more complications. Think about what mom and dad will say. - The tearful girl sighed.-

-You're right. - He agreed, shaking her affectionately between one of his arms.- Come on, let's go back home ...

        Kerria felt better, silently thanking her brother's support and leaving with him resting her head on his chest, eager to lock herself in her room and escape from that nightmare. menawhile Amethyst was preparing to return to hers completely sunk, even angry with herself and very worried about her friend. In the locker room, most of the girls were whispering now. Some regretted having treated that poor wretch like that, others instead reaffirmed what they thought.

-Goodness. - Tracy commented. - I hope she doesn't come back here. I'm certainly not going to go into the locker room when she's there.

-Do not be like that. - Lana asked, glancing at Amethyst. - That poor girl is suffering. Is it that you do not realize?

-Well, perhaps if she doesn't behave like a pervert. - A certain Lacie replied nonchalantly, spitting with palpable contempt. - Damn lesbian bitch! She disgusts me!

She was the typical blonde cheerleader who had always looked over her shoulder at most of the other girls. And of course she didn't encourage much sympathy for Kerria. Perhaps also because Leval had not honored her with her attention. Her though she barely had time to smile at her own comment. Without being able to react, she was attacked by that French woman who looked like a runaway bull. Amethyst stirred when she heard that of her grabbing her neck and pinning her against a wall. The terrified Lacie saw those mauve eyes of her attacker flash with fury as Amethyst snapped.

-Never talk about Kerria like that again! Never! Do you hear me?

The petrified cheerleader was unable to articulate a word, much less nod. Although between Lana and Sandra they managed to get Amethyst to release her.

- Enough Tist! - The first of them asked her trying to loosen her grip. -

-Don't make things worse. - Sandra begged, scared too, pulling the girl to separate her from the terrified Lacie.- Please! ...

Amethyst was barely calming down. But she herself was struggling with a terrible internal struggle. She from her always had despised that type of behavior, but not to the point of doing so much harm to anyone. Even when she had played that cruel joke on her friend Michelle, who had the same inclination, at her Lycée in Paris, she thought it was only going to be a mockery with no further consequences. As if in this way they ugly her behavior and made her reconsider it. But everything got out of her hands. Then Michelle left there devastated and Amethyst was terribly sorry. She still did. Like Kerria, this girl had been her best friend, they had shared confidences and made so many plans. And now everything had gotten out of control again, even though she had wanted to prevent it, but she was unable to fight her own prejudices. Fortunately, meditating on that, her anger subsided and other girls came between her and hers, targeting her.

-Fine - She could mumble relaxing. -

Lana and Sandra released her, Tracy certainly kept from making more comments and Karen that yes, she commented to them with concern.

- Oh no, look who's coming.

Amethyst didn't pay much attention. In fact, she was already leaving the locker room when an unpleasantly familiar voice addressed her.

- Wow, I did not know you had such special friends, Lassart.

           She turned to find herself face to face with Molly Simps, that strong-willed girl who did not exactly like her. Only a few inches shorter than her but much more voluminous. Short-haired light and nose bulging like a pear that was faithful record of all her fights. Simps told her this and a group formed by Amethyst's companions and those of that girl surrounded them with expectation.

-What do you mean? - Inquired Amethyst with visible irritation. -

Simps grinned mischievously and snapped at her with a tinge of exhilarated triumph.

- I already know about you and that Kerria. Or do you think I'm stupid? That of her brother is very convenient as a excuse. It's the perfect cover, but I've never seen you with him.

- As if I did not have better things to do than walk with Leval in front of a cow like you. - The alluded girl smiled with disdain. -

Molly gave a grimace of anger, that offense bothered her greatly and her rival knew it. However, it was she who this time had the ace up her sleeve and was going to use it immediately.

-You can insult me what you want but I at least do not do that things with another girl. - She replied with a malevolent smile. And she spat with sarcastic rudeness. - Tell me, do you like it when the Malden girl sucks your cunt?

Amethyst was trying to contain her growing anger and simply responded by pretending disdain.

- I'm going to tell you something, before I would do it with any girl before to see your grotesque face.

- That some disgusting lesbians like you or your friend Kerria tell me that is a compliment to me. - Simps answered. -

-I do not let you insult her, you damned bitch! - Her interlocutor shouted, losing her apparent calm. -She worth a thousand times more than you!

- You see? -  Molly said, looking around the group with a funny expression. - The French whore is in love with that queer. How well they must fuck together if she defends her like that!

Amethyst could not restrain herself anymore and gave her interlocutor a sovereign punch. Simps staggered back and wiping the blood that flowed from a lip she sentenced with a joy and long-held desire.

- Damn Barbie! ...Wanktits. You have asked for it.

            She rushed at her opponent and tried to hold her with a judo prey pushing her to the ground. But it was not easy for her. Her rival could avoid her by getting up quickly to adopt her guard position, Molly did the same as she said.

- This is going to be interesting, a balanced fight, we will decide who is the best.

- I have no doubt. -Her opponent replied reaching in the head to her with a quick kick that unbalanced Molly while saying. - Damn cow!

             Molly gave her a look full of hatred, but regained her composure and approached her rival. Amethyst threw another kick but this time she was blocked and knocked down. Simps was able to put on her laughing with satisfaction.

-It's over, I'll give you the biggest beating of your life! - She exclaimed twisting an arm to the girl who screamed in pain. - Enjoy it...

The rest of the girls were stunned and afraid to intervene. At first they had formed the typical group around both animated each to their respective leader but now they fell silent. That fight was going to decide many more things than they could imagine. Amethyst struggled not to budge, but if she was not careful, that beast would break her arm. She could not use her legs either, since her opponent had immobilized them by sitting on her knees. Knowing that, Simps provoked her with a burlesque tone.

- Come on, uptight lady, try to give me one of your kicks. Where are your princess airs now? Hey? ... You brag a lot and are very brave in your mouth. But in the end you're just a Barbie ... another mannequin like your mommy. Hey, Wanktits? The boys couldn't have given you a better nickname. You're just a fly warmer.

        The increasingly furious and hurried Amethyst tried to think of something. Although the sweat and the accelerated pulse triggered by the adrenaline were not the best to draw a plan, not even to have an idea, so she reacted instinctively. Sliding one of her hands she managed to pinch her enemy in a place not worthy. Simps, howling with pain, rose almost immediately. Her rival took the chance to finish off with a furious kick to the stomach that made her fall bent over herself. She hit her again and again with forcefulness, it was a rain of punches and kicks in which she discharged all her anger and all her frustration deciding that fight. Already having Simps almost knocked out, bleeding from the lip and nose and completely at her mercy she was going to hit her again when her friend Lana came trying to stop her.

- Enough already! You are going to kill her. Take it easy!

And between her and Tracy, they grabbed her furious friend, managing to separate her from her other companion. Flaunting her strength enhanced by the rage Amethyst took off of them with two pushes, stopped panting and ordered, not only for her opponent, but for all who were there.

- Enough, do you hear me? I do not want to hear any more comments about Kerria. And listen to me, Simps. - She added with a furious hiss, holding it by the front. - If you call me gay or Barbie ever again I'll spoil your ugly face even more. Now get out! - She shouted to the others who left there hastily fearing the same fate that had suffered, the hitherto considered invincible Molly. -

              Amethyst also limped away, leaving her almost unconscious rival there before any teacher saw what happened. She had to shower again and try not to move her injured arm. Shortly after her opponent also recovered enough to leave. She had been defeated before witnesses in an open fight and for the moment, she would retire. Although the expression of her adversary and the brightness of anger in her eyes had come to frighten her, it had really provoked her too much. She had never seen her so angry. That girl did not seem human. She had terrible strength. So, helped by some friends, she went home, avoiding the school's medicine cabinet. She would recover to have a rematch one day.

Amethyst limped away too, leaving her almost unconscious rival there before any teacher saw what happened. He had to shower again and try not to move his injured arm. Shortly after, her adversary also recovered enough to leave with the help of one of her friends.

-Report her to the director. - Lacie suggested. - They will expel her from here forever.

- I won´t! - The still furious, but scared Molly hissed, sentencing. - I'm not a snitch. But one day she will pay.

And the others, who did not want any problems, were not going to be the ones to tell the director or any other teacher. Molly herself had to admit that she had been defeated before witnesses in an open fight and for the moment, she would withdraw. Although the expression of her adversary and the glint of anger in her eyes had come to scare him, she had really provoked her too much. He had never seen her so angry. That girl didn't look human. She had terrible strength. And he came to believe that this threat to kill her was serious. So she, helped by some friends, went to her house, avoiding the school medicine cabinet. She would already recover to have the revenge at the most propitious moment. Meanwhile, when she got out of the shower, the Frenchwoman kept trying to get dressed with the help of her friends.

-Amethyst, for God's sake! You almost kill her! - A livid Lana said to her companion, after accompanying her to the dressing room.-

- She deserved it. For saying those things about Kerria. - She spat with patent anger still.-

-Listen. - Her companion sighed. - I was not there, they told me what happened here a while ago. They were so far making such a joke about it. But that's all. Really. Nobody really cares if your friend is a lesbian or not.

-Do you think so? - The French girl sobbed then, trembling grabbing her astonished companion by the arm to add in dismay. - I am the first who cares! You do not understand. I thought she was my friend. Now I'm not sure. I'm not sure about anything or anybody!

-Ok, it is alright. - Lana mused lowering her head sadly to add. - I will try to talk with the others. I hope they leave her alone. Anyway, if they continue with these jokes, it would be harassment.

- The next one who dares to laugh at her will see with me. You can tell the others. Tell them that what I have done to Molly Simps is going to be a caress compared to what I will do to anyone who harms Kerria. -She asserted, wiping away her tears.-

Her friend nodded slowly and chose to leave her alone to calm down. Amethyst was able to do it and once back home she managed to climb into her room without being seen. Luckily her mother was not there and her father worked in the room he had as office, without noticing anything. The young woman was too bruised and aching from the blows, but that was what worried her the least. Her mind was a kaleidoscope of mixed feelings, her contempt for homosexuals, and her own remorse for not helping a friend when she needed it and what was even worse, despite her statement before Lana, she doesn´t feeling strong enough to do so. From now on. In addition, there was the fact that Leval would probably not speak to her again as soon as he knew, or possibly both families did. She could have broken a friendship between her parents and those of Kerria, a friendship that had been going on for many, many years. And all because she was not able to give her friend a chance. Just as she did not give it to Michelle. Without strength and overwhelmed by all this, she collapsed on her bed breaking into tears.
