"Leave us alone" Jonathan hissed. He was tired of hiding. He hadn't regretted beating up Steve that day, and he'd do it again if it came to it.
Tommy pushed Jonathan. "What's wrong you creep? Tired of banging the slut? Wanna replace her with a younger model already?"
"I don't want to fight" Jonathan said.
Tommy pushed him again, this time, so hard that Jonathan fell to the ground and hurt his hands.
"Leave him alone!" Nancy yelled. She was furious.
"Or what, little girl? What do you wanna do? Let him beat me up again. Let's see what the school thinks of that. He'll be kicked out" Steve said.
That was it. Nancy hit Steve in the head with her fist. He screamed out in pain.
"Let's go!" Nancy said. Jonathan and she ran, and the others weren't following them. Maybe this would get them in trouble and have terrible consequences later, but she didn't care. She felt the sweet taste of victory.
They ran to Jonathan's house again. Jonathan made sure to lock the door, just in case those nutcasers would dare to come back. He sat down on the floor, his hands bleeding.
God, Jonathan. You're bleeding. Are you ok?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. And you? Are you alright?"
"Yeah, I'm good, but you're not ok! Let me see"
Nancy asked if they had a first aid kit in the house, and they had. The sat down on the couch and she started cleaning Jonathan's cuts.
It stung a little, but he was no sissy. He thanked Nancy. Suddenly, he started laughing.
"What?" Nancy asked.
"I just can't believe you did that"
"Why? Because I'm a girl?" Nancy said, defensive.
"No. It was just.. brillant. He deserved it. I just didn't think you could. I mean.. I thought you still had feelings for him"

"Oh. I don't have any feelings for him. Not anymore" Nancy said, quietly.
"Nancy?"
But before he could say anymore, her lips were on his. They were kissing like the world had gone mad, and who knew, maybe it had. Jonathan didn't know where to put his hand, so he finally put them in Nancy's hair. It was extremely soft and lovely to touch. This was something he had dreamed of for a long time. His lips felt like they were on fire, and finally, Nancy pulled away.
"Jonathan?"
"Yes?"
"I love you."

NaNoWriMo challenge :D and [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Some magic elements are borrowed from Savage Divinity and a handful of other good wuxia/xianxia stories, but the story itself is pretty original if I do say so myself. If you feel bothered by my borrowing elements from other magic systems, a) I'm not making money off of this... yet, and b) almost all Xianxia copy each other. This one, at least, has direction where other xianxia don't.

Red Wheat
Skylar Kylee Wintersong was born an Indigo Child. Celebrated by her parents, who ensured that she suffered no restrictions that might hinder her powers, ability or genius, she has grown up knowing that she was a member of the elite, born to rule and guide. However, the cruel whims of beings who are Gods have intervened, and not only dropped Skylar in a savage reality of magic, muscle, steel, and blood, but granted her all the powers she thought she was entitled to. Her knowledge that she's been born to rule and guide, that she was a chosen one, has been made real, with all the terrible burden that entails. How will a 21st Century Earth girl survive on the Six Worlds of Shtar? A place known as "The War Worlds." The entire thing is somewhat tongue in cheek, fun high fantasy with a touch of satire. Rather than adding in likable and relatable characters, the three Earthlings are supposed to be caricatures and somewhat satirical, as I was making fun of the type of fantasy that was being spit out all over the place at the time I wrote this about a decade ago. It is currently unfinished and on hiatus.
