When we got to school everyone was staring at us. I just ignored them. I do that best. But I know my guy friends are going to question me later. I will answer them the best I can. I don't hide anything from them. They are like family.

When we got to school, I see Markise, James, and John waiting out front for us. It was like they know something was going on. Usually they wait for me at my locker or somewhere else. Never out front of the school. Charlette was waiting there with them.

I got out of the car. They were all staring at us. Markise, James, and John looked at me confused. I went over to them. Darcy was following right behind me. When I got over to them, I asked,

"What?"

They looked at me and then to Darcy. John was the brave one to say something.

"What is going on here?" He asked.

"What do you mean? What does it look like? Just a friend giving us a ride to school." I answered them.

I then walked right past them and headed into the school. I went right to my locker. John, James, and Markise followed me to my locker. They were going to question me then. I was ready for them. I just wasn't ready for Darcy to hear what I have to say.

"Really Lizzy? What is going on? That didn't look like two friends. Since when you guys became friends?" James asked.

"Just yesterday. He is my secret admirer and we are going to get know each other. See where it goes from there." I told them.

"So, are you giving your sword up?" Markise asked me.

"Bite your tongue. I would never. We are just getting to know each other. Not getting married. I will never give my sword up." I told him.

How dare he think that? Right now, I am having an open mind about Darcy. Its not like we are getting married tomorrow. We barely know each other. I would never do that. Does he not know me? Darcy doesn't seem like that type of guy that would make me give it up if we start dating.

"Markise, that was just an insult to her. Of course, she would never give it up. Any ways Darcy doesn't seem like the guy would make her either. I bet you he would rather have married be able to fight." John stated to him.

"We will have to ask him. But I am just asking. We all know that there are few guys that think if you are in a relationship the woman should not carry or fight." Markise said.

"Yes, I know that. I hate those men. Would never be with one if that was the case. John probably is right. Darcy doesn't seem like that type of guy." I said.

Luckily for me the bell rang for homeroom. I could get away from them and stopped being question for a bit. But they did make me think about a few things. What is Darcy point on women fighting in a relationship?
