Amy got in between them and her nose met Ben’s fist.

Jess grabbed Josh off the ground and passed him over to Brian.

“He called me reject, and said nasty things about my dad” Ben snapped

“EVERYONE INTO THE BIG HALL NOW!” Amy instructed

All the kids started leaving the room.

“Alan go with them and start to get them all home” Amy said

“Buddy what happened?” Jess asked

“Im not a reject” Ben snapped he was shaking

Jess and Amy took a side each and hugged him till he stopped shaking.

“We know you’re not a reject” Amy said

“Amz your nose is bleeding” Jess said

“Sugar…Listen buddy I need to go clean my nose up…You talk to Jess for me yeah” Amy smiled

“I’m sorry” Ben said feeling extremely guilty

“Hey no worry’s at all…But extremely good punch for a ten year old”

Amy walked into the toilet and ran the cold water…She wiped her nose took a deep breath then went back into the main hall. Nathan, Alan and Brian were talking.

“Hey you ok?” Alan asked

“Yeah…Nathan what did I tell you about fighting?” Amy stated

“No wonder no-one else was defending Ben” Nathan answered

“What happened?” Amy asked

“Josh kept whispering stuff like Loser, Psycho, Geek, and then they started talking about Ben’s dad being a drunk and tramp, Next minute Ben totally exploded” Nathan stated “Ben isn’t violent that’s the first I’ve ever heard him shout or even lash out”

“Yeah we know that” Amy said “Ok listen Mama is waiting outside for you, Let’s go I’ll walk you out”

Bette opened the window when she seen Amy.

“Hey Mama I’m going to stay at Jacqui’s tonight, Just had a fight in here so got a lot to tidy” Amy said

Nathan jumped in the front seat.

“Ben lost the plot, He got beat up at school and then they started name calling in the centre and Ben exploded” Nathan told her

“Your nose is red” Bette said to Amy

“Yeah Ben’s fist said hello to it” Amy laughed “It’s a shame he feels so bad”
