What did he see in Maka, anyway ?
Was she that kind ?
Beautiful ?
Intelligent ?
Kindness ?
Everything..?
Questions rang around Jewels's head as she sat down on her chair.
She turned her head, just to see Kid. Good news. Bad news is, he went to Maka. Sighing, she looked down.
She really wanted to be with Kid. To tell him and let him know about how she feels about him. And, hope that he does the same.
She heard snickers. Turning her head back, she noticed boys staring at Maka's back from their seats. Mumbling stuff about how Kid sucked at asking a girl out.
"Help me with Maka."
Jewels looked surprised. That's it... Kid loves Maka. If he'd be happy, she'd be glad to sacrifice her happiness. Glaring, she stood up, clenching fists.
She walked to their seats, holding a dark glare. For Kid, for his happiness.
"Take your eyes away from my best friend and Maka," She raised a fist, the boys watching.
"Or," She cleared her throat. "I would just…"
She slammed the fist to one of the boys' tables, shaking almost the whole room. "TAKE YOUR EYES OFF OF THEIR SOCKETS ! YOU THREE GOT ME ?!" She raged at the top of her lungs. Everyone stopped in their tracks. Even Patty woke up from her sleep.
The boys looked at her, then made a small laugh. "We all know you can't." The leader said, then signaled the boys to leave the room with their bags. Jewels growled, starting to march after them.
"No no no ! Jewels, calm down !" Kid ran to her, holding her back. Jewels struggled, grunting and growling angrily. "They're checking Maka out ! SHE'S YOURS, RIGHT ?! THAT'S WHAT WOULD MAKE YOU HAPPY !"
"It doesn't matter, Jewels ! Calm down ! You'll get suspended if you continue !"
"I DON'T CARE ! NO ONE SHOULD TAKE MY BEST FRIEND'S HAPPINESS, I'LL KILL ANYONE WHO TRIES !" Jewels raged.
"Jewels, it's fine now. They all left alrea—"
"I LOVE YOU AND I WON'T LET ANYONE STEAL YOUR HAPPINESS !"
Kid stopped, looking startled at her words.
A moment of silence passed. As Jewels's rage and anger dropped, she realized what she just said.
Her eyes went slightly wide. As she took a quick glance around the room, everyone's eyes were on hers. Kid's eyes were wide, his golden eyes staring straight at hers.
"J-jewels… I-i…"
Jewels started to tear up. This is what she fears off. Not wanting to hear it, she forced herself out of Kid's hold and ran outside.
"Damn it, I messed up…"
Jewels thought as she ran. As tears streamed down her eyes. She just made the largest mistake. She let anger take her over. And now, she might've destroyed their almost-life-long friendship.
"Minutes earlier, you're raging. Now, you're crying ? Are you on your period ?"
Jewels stopped. She clenched her fists as she recognized the voice. Looking up, she saw the same guys. But now… Holding baseball bats.
"I told you, you can't."
Two of them ran at her, raising the baseball bats. Jewels, being scared about what just happened earlier, blocked the bats with her arms. As she felt the pain from it, she yelped loudly, but kept her balance and fought them off.
Jewels somehow made a good fight. She dodged and blocked some swings, but, at the end, one can't win against two. When she blocked one, the other landed on her leg, making her wince and fall on her back.
She gritted her teeth, then tried to stand. But as she got on her knees, multiple swings and hits landed on her back. She coughed, wincing as she fell back down.
She could feel her eyelids start to close from the pain. Both physical and emotional.
As she gave up and closed her eyes, she heards from a familiar voice.
"Leave—Friend—Alone"
Jewels wanted to open her eyes. But the pain stopped her. As she slipped out of consciousness, she felt arms pick her up, then everything went blank.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Jewels opened her eyes. Everything was a blur for a matter of seconds. She can feel pain from her back, arms, legs, and head. But it wasn't as heavy like earlier. Soon, she adjusted, seeing white walls, posters… And… A boy with black and white hair.
Kid.
Jewels looked started.
"Jewels ? You okay…?" The familiar voice asked. Jewels frowned. Why him, of all people ? The things she said…
"Maka's nice… Kind… Intelligent, and perfectly symmetrical !"
She made a sigh. A moment of silence passed. Talk about awkward.
And Kid, was the first to break the silence.
"Look… About earlier…"
Jewels glanced at him, then frowned at the memory. "…F-forget about it…" She sighed, then forced herself out of the bed.
"Jewels, you were beaten up badly.. You have to rest…"
"I'm okay." Jewels went to the door. As she grabbed the knob, she sighed. "Go back to class. I'm going home."
"I'll take you there then !"
"No." Jewels glared at him. "Just…" Her expression softened, before looking away. "I want to go home alone for today…"
She opened the door, then walked away. Kid stood there, dumbfounded as he watched. As Jewels exited the Infirmary, she closed the door, looking down.
"You don't really care, anyways…"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
