A/N: Note, I do not encourage you to follow the following actions. LoL.

Walking home from school at three-thirty, Sue was accompanied by Amy and Lucy since they lived quite close to each other. The rest of the group lived on the other side of the city. Amy lit up another cigarette, and this time they shared one between them.

"Hey, Sue you wanna come over to mine tonight, we can get homework out of the way and watch a movie or something?"

"Yeah, sure! I'll have to check with mom first, make sure it's okay."

"We'll walk you home first then."

"Great thanks!"

They walked down to the bottom of the hill in silence, their arms linked together. When they got to the bottom they were met by two of the girls that Sue had a run in with before school started.

"Hi, girls, I see you haven't been listening to our advice lately?"

"What advice would that be Carly?"

"What advice? Don't tell me what little was left of your brains finally took off. I'm talking about the advice regarding new girls to the school."

"Oh now I remember. But, tell me Carly, what the hell makes you think I'm gonna listen to advice from a bitch like you?"

"You've no right calling her a bitch!"

"And just what are you going to do about it Claire?"

"Say it again and you'll bloody well see!" She yelled.

"Oh yeah? Well you and Carly are just a pair of stupid BITCHES! There I said it again; I don't see anything happening." Amy said mockingly.

Now was definitely not the time to be messing with her, she was already pissed off just at the sight of them. Spoke to soon, she thought as Claire came flying at her. But Claire wasn't quick enough; Amy had her long hair wrapped round her fists almost as soon as Claire came within touching distance. Carly, who was definitely stupid if her next actions were anything to go by, made a move to pounce on Sue. Lucy intercepted and received a slap in the face.

"Oohh now you've done it!"

Lucy hissed at her, before she pounced on her. She had one hand wrapped around Carly's ponytail and drew her other hand back to throw a punch. Lucy hit her square in the jaw. She was about to swing again but Sue grabbed her hand.

"She's not worth it." Sue said simply.

And Lucy let go of Carly with a final shove. She smiled as she watched Carly tumble into a hedge and went to pull Amy off of Claire. Pulling Amy away from a fight was a lot more difficult than getting Lucy to stop and Lucy almost got a punch from Amy for her efforts. Finally she relented.

"Mess with any of my friends again and I swear you'll lose more than a clump of hair."

She spat at Claire - who was sporting a split lip as well as looking as though she'd been dragged through a hedge backwards - before turning to Lucy.

"What the hell did you go and do that for?"

"She's not worth it Amy. We've been suspended once before for it; do you want to get suspended again?"

"I suppose not."

"I'm sorry guys, I didn't mean to get you involved in this." Sue looked quite upset as she spoke.

"Hey, no worries, what are friends for eh?"

Sue smiled. Friends, she'd never had a real one of those before...
