**************************************************************************** **********
Over the following days, I had noticed Emma was quiet. Quieter than usual, that is. I decided to let her have her space. I didn't want to invade her personal space again. Now that we were friends again, even though I knew Emma was still a little mad at me, we walked everywhere together, with Frodo and Boromir. Billee and Legolas were coming to classes sometimes. But mostly, they were busy with Colan. He was such a cute little kid. The other morning I woke up to find him snuggled up next to me, thumb in mouth, fast asleep. I knew he knew me rather well. But this was a big surprise. He usually favored his brother or Emma over me.
At school, Emma and I walked together to our classes. There were other bullies in the school besides Randy and Gimli, but they weren't as bad. There was the Girl Clique. They didn't usually physically hurt anyone. More than likely it was the mentally and verbally harassing kids, younger than us or themselves. One day Emma and I were walking toward the boys class when we past Jo, the head of the Girl Clique. Of course she had to shout out after us.
"Yo! Emma! Have you had anyone come onto you lately?!" Emma looked as if she was going to burst into tears. I swung around and walked up to the tall blonde elf, who towered over me, her arms crossed.
"What did you just say to my friend, Jo?"
"Go blow it out ya old wazoo, shrimp."
I felt my rage boil. No one called this hobbit a shrimp and got away in one piece. I vaguely heard Emma saying don't worry about it. But by that time, I had leapt onto Jo and had my hands around her neck, choking her and banging her head against the floor. "Don't ever say anything to Emma or me! Or you will regret it, Jo Dogen! I swear!" It took Frodo and Boromir to drag me off and cool me down. Frodo was trying hard not to laugh. I glanced at him with a grin on my face.
"You sure you want a wife who has a hot temper, Mr. Baggins?"
"If she is as beautiful as you, I'd love it. Some one to get me on my feet everyday."
That had sent me into gales of laughter. Emma was sitting with her arms around her knees. She looked trembly. I put a comforting arm around her and smiled. "Don't worry, Em, I won't let Jo or her cronies get to us. I just proved that."
By this time, it was almost graduation. We were working up to it anyway. Emma was still a little secluded. But our friendship was stronger than ever.
Sometimes, we had a spare period together, and during that hour-and-a-half we'd go up to the common room and watch a movie. First it was my choice, then Emma's and then one that we both loved. One of the movies we loved together, was 'The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking'.
A great kids movie. Lots of songs and we would go around humming the theme song. I think Indigo and Reesa were getting annoyed. But we didn't care in the slightest.
