Lewanna had ran a couple laps when a commotion by the guys locker room. She jogged quickly over there, seeing a couple jock looking dudes walk out, one of them clenching and unclenching his fist as if he had just hit something, or someone. The blood drained from her face when she was Ian walk out of the locker room. She ran up to him, gently lifting his face and looking at him. "Damn it." She muttered. She looked him in the eye. "Did those three jock that just walked out of the locker room do this?" She questioned quickly, still seeing them out of the corner of her eye. She was beyond pissed, and as soon as she knew for sure they where going to get a talking to, more like a beat down, even if she only had one good hand. Her blood was to the point she was pretty sure it was boiling now, her anger increasing with each breath she took.

Ian continued to rub at his nose until Lewanna ran up to him, wincing a little when she suddenly tilted his head up to look at it. "I-it's fine!" He explained quickly, frowning as he stared down at her. "I got cocky with them anyway...They told me to back off and I told them otherwise." He sighed, shrugging his shoulders before setting his hand on her shoulder. "Don't go off and get yourself in trouble for me, okay...Who cares what they did." He whispered.

Lewanna looked at him like he was mad. "Are you kidding me. I told them to leave you alone." Lewanna was seething as she stormed over to the jocks. When they turned around, with smug little smiles on their faces, seeming to enjoy punching a kid, and Lewanna exploded. She punched the big guy in the face, hearing a satisfying crunch as she broke the cartilage. "I told you to leave him alone." Was all she said, venom laced through her voice. She ducked under a clumsy swinging fist from another one, landing a hard punch to his gut before landing an uppercut to his jaw. A pained yelp escaped her when the other one, the one not sporting a broken nose or a bruised jaw, landed a lucky shot right to her already bruised side.

Fury rolled off of her as she punched him in the gut as well. The big guy, who was bleeding everywhere from his nose, seamed to just notice the brace on her left hand. He seized it, using his freakish strength to crush down on her wrist. Another yelp came from her as she grabbed his hand that was holding her wrist, her nails digging into his skin. She didn't notice the fist coming towards her, connecting with her right eye socket. The big guy threw her by her wrist, Lewanna landing with a thud against the ground.

By now a bunch of students and teachers where there, blocking the three from Lewanna. She coughed a little, blood leaking down from a cut above her eye, but she wasn't ready to give up. "Damn it." She said under her breath. She stood up, fists curled in anger as she looked for the three. A couple teachers where already at her though, spouting words Lewanna didn't care to hear.

Upon realizing she wasn't going to get through she let out an exasperated sigh, slumping onto a bleacher bench, her head resting in her hands, her whole body shaking gently. Her wrist hurt like hell, but she was to worked up to even notice the pain.

(Sorry. Probably a bit dramatic, but I went overboard. XD)

Ian had tired to pull Lewanna back when she made her move towards the three guys, but his fingers had barely brushed past her arm. "Damn!" He hissed, running a hand down his face as he watched in horror as she was practically beat down. At least she got a few punches in.. He thought, but as soon as the teachers intervened he rushed over, casting menacing glares towards the three guys who backed away a couple inches before going about their business.

He ignored the teachers as they tried to pull him away, scowling at them before he sat down beside her and sighed. "You didn't have to do that you know...You could've gotten yourself hurt worse than you already were." He sighed, wrapping an arm around her side as he helped her to her feet. "We should get you to the nurses office...Explain to the office what happened and hopefully they'll let you off easy." He whispered, pushing past the teachers as he led Lewanna away.

Lewanna shook her head gently, letting him lead her towards the nurses office. She knew she wouldn't be getting off easy, but she didn't care. She looked gently towards Ian, smiling softly, but it had the wrong effect, since some of the blood from her gash had leaked into her mouth and turned her teeth partially red. "At least they won't mess with us anymore." She said, chuckling softly before wincing. She sat down on the nurses table, the three guys on the other side of the room, making a huge deal of their injuries and making sure everyone knew Lewanna started it. Whatever punishment she got would be worth it to her though, because every time she looked towards them they would cringe.

She chuckled gently, another wince crossing her face before she let the nurse look at her. She stopped the bleeding on her face, a couple butterfly bandages holding it closed. She didn't even flinch when the principle walked in.

Ian stifled a laugh at her bloody smile that made her seem more threatening than friendly as they made their way to the nurses office. He had sat close to Lewanna, but continued to keep a little distance until the jocks had looked over there way and he ended up inching closer to her. He narrowed his eyes, snorting a little when they cringed at Lewanna's gaze and looked down at her with a weary smile. "You got a good arm there...Even with defeat you still managed to scare them." He chuckled before glancing up when the principal walked in.

He let out a low sigh as he lent back in his seat, avoiding the stern look the older gentleman gave Lewanna and the three boys. So not worth sticking up for me... He thought, absently reaching over to squeeze Lewanna's hand as he stared down at the floor.

The principal walked in, the nurses door closing behind him. He surveyed the scene quietly, noting the dried blood on Lewanna, along with a couple injuries. He then turned towards the the jocks, noting the broken nose, bruised chin, and the third appeared to have a gut injury. He almost cracked a smile that one girl could so that to 3 guys, but he kept it in. He asked the three boys what happened first. They played the story of she just jumped them, attacking them for no reason and they defended themselves. He then moved over to Lewanna. "What happened." He asked, his voice flat and unemotional. He noticed Ian had some blood on his face, but decided to brush it off for how.

Lewanna sighed gently, sitting up with a hand wrapped gingerly around her waist. "Those guys think I shouldn't hang out with Ian here, so they threatened him. I told them to leave him alone, but they attacked him in the busy locker room. I was pissed, so I went after them." She didn't sugarcoat the truth at all, she just told it how it happened. The principal looked between the groups before nodding, rubbing a hand over his face before giving an answer. "Unfortunately, that wasn't your fight Lewanna. With you being the aggressor, I'm going to have to suspend you for 3 days." Lewanna nodded, not even fighting the answer. The principle turned towards the boys. "And, since you three felt it necessary to gang up on a girl you all will be in detention for a week." A series of groans was heard through the group.

Anger raged through Ian as he listened to the three guys explain themselves. Liars. He thought with a sneer as he looked away, only turning back when the principal turned towards Lewanna to hear her story. Ian pulled his hand away from hers, sighing as he looked away as she explained herself to the principal. She's going to get in trouble all because of me.. He thought with a frown, but it soon turned into a faint smile at the thought.

His head snapped towards Lewanna when the principal declared her punishment was three days suspension before he snapped his jaws together when the three guys got a measly detention for a week. Pathetic, they should be given just as much if not more of a punishment then Lewanna. He thought with a sneer before looking towards her. "Guess you won't be here for three days..." He sighed, frowning as he stood up and looked down at her.

Lewanna nodded deftly at Ian's words, not really hearing them. The principle spoke again, "Now I'm going to call each of your parents and they'll pick you up for the day." When the teacher said this Lewanna paled. Se tightened her good hand into a fist to keep it from shaking. 'No no no no.' Was running endlessly through her brain, but she tried not to show it.

The school nurse had tried to take a look at her wrist, complaining the jock may have broke it, but she wouldn't allow it. She couldn't let them see the finger shaped bruises on her wrist under the brace. She just insisted she was fine. She sat on the nurses table really still for a while after the principle left, not really looking around or talking, just staring down at her hands.

Ian sighed, running a hand through his hair before he looked down at Lewanna as the principal left. He watched her as she insisted that her wrist was fine as the nurse tried checking it, the action only spiking his curiosity of what really happened to her wrist. "Lewanna...Why are you so protective over your hand?" He asked quietly as he sat next to her, worry beginning to fill his eyes as he looked over at her.

"Those guys could've hurt it worse than it already was...You should get it looked at." He explained, sighing as he looked down at the floor. "How about I look at it...Would that be better?" He asked quietly, glancing over to her from the corner of his eye as he slowly reached out for her wrist.

Lewanna shook her head gently, bringing her wrist and setting it in her lap. "I'm okay. I know what a broken wrist feels like and this isn't it." She said half-heartedly, still kinda looking at the floor. She moved her wrist away from him when he reached for it, shaking her head gently. "I'll be fine." Her words where pretty soft, so she hoped he heard her.

She heard an angry yell from through the hallways and flinched, knowing exactly who it was. She slapped her eyes onto her hands when a man stormed into the door. He was about 6' 2'' with dark brown hair and about 250 lbs. "What the hell girl." He said darkly, walking right up to Lewanna. She flinched as he approached her, but didn't move. He seized her good wrist, pulling her from the table and into the hallway, with little resistance from Lewanna after she caught her footing. She turned her head gently, half of a fake smile on her lips as she spoke softly to Ian. "See ya in a few day."

Ian frowned when she pulled her wrist away from him and nodded, a little reluctant to pull away. He looked out towards the hall when a man suddenly burst out yelling, eyes widening when he stormed through the door. "Lewanna..." He groaned, burying his head in his hands when she was drug from the office by the screaming man. What the hell is wrong with that guy? He thought before he glanced up and stared at the empty doorway. "Be careful..." He sighed as he trudged out of the nurses office and, instead of going back to class, chose to stand at the entrance of the school as he waited for the bell to dismiss them all.

Lewanna cringed as she was half-thrown into the car, the door slammed after her. He stomped around to the drivers seat, slamming the door after he got in. "How dare you do something that forces me to leave work early. I already provide you with a house and food and this is how you thank me!" He half growled as he pulled out of the school parking lot, heading towards hell. Lewanna didn't even flinch as he spoke, already knowing what was coming the next three days, and knowing there was nothing she could do about it. Her eye was already starting to blacken, so at least she has an excuse if she gets another black eye.

Ian sighed, looking up at the clock in time for the bell to ring before he pushed the doors open and walked out of the school. "I swear she better come back looking the same way she did when she left." He muttered under his breath as he began his trek home. He found his thoughts drifting off at the thought of Lewanna coming back to school looking as though she were used as a punching bag, but he quickly shook them away and tried to think of something else.

When he finally got home he dropped his bag at the front door, exhaustion taking over as he ascended the stairs and walked into his room before he plopped down on his bed and closed his eyes. "Please be alright..." He whispered, frowning as he stared blankly at his door.

(We can timeskip anytime you want to the day Lewanna comes back to school, btw ^^)

Lewanna woke up on the morning of the third day. She groaned as she sat up carefully in her bed. She winced when she moved her chest, her ribs protesting from the beating. The last few days hadn't been very fun for her. At all. The only thought that kept her going was getting to go to school in three days. She kinda wished she didn't have to now. She stepped out of bed, wincing when she put pressure on her left leg. He had twisted her ankle a couple days ago. Luckily nothing broke, so it's been slowly healing, but not fast enough, especially since it usually earned at least one kick at night. She admired her wrist. It was black and blue and might be broke, but she slipped the brake back on anyways, not wanting suspicion to arise. She let out w gently sigh, at least glad he hadn't hit her face again. That would be harder to explain. She still had a black eye, but it was fading lightly, though still very much there.

She groaned as she slipped into the shower, her old side bruise and new chest bruise melding into one angry mark. She was pretty sure a couple of her ribs where cracked after he took his steel toed boots to them, but she wasn't positive. She stepped out of the showed, wincing a little as she dried herself off, slipping on a loose pair of pants and a light blue tshirt. She slipped a hoodie over her head, hiding her ember colored hair. She had forgot her backpack at school that day so she didn't have anything to carry. With a sigh, and a wince, she walked out of the house, a light limp in her step as she stepped onto the bus. She just stared out the window as the bus picked up more students, her head in the clouds until the bus arrived at the school. She let all the other students get off before she did, doing her best to mask her harder breathing and her limp.
