We came her home as we left school after some girls came inside the washroom and saw her sitting on the floor crying. Must be thinking what a pathetic mess we were but I could care less.

I knew not only it'd make the situation worse for beth but for me. So we both were not at her house. John wasn't here nor Sofia. I texted Ethan letting him know I was going home with beth as she wasn't feeling well and being him so understanding he only responded 'okay let me know if you both need anything, love you.'

No matter how much bad situation it'd be, his presence comforted me so deeply but now I didn't think that was the case as we both sat silently on her bed.

Only us.

"Now tell me what is it. Is it financial something?" I asked but she shook her head slightly continued to look down.

"Look at me beth," I turned her towards me and lifted up her face.

Her red blood shot eyes met my oceans ones. I kept holding her face in my hands and nodded her to proceed.

"It's Max Aria," She finally muttered with a sob. Her lips trembled badly. "He's..."

My heart was shrinking every second as she started to tell me. What I never imagined was, it could be related to Max.

"He's what?" I queried as I wiped the river of tears leaving her eyes. There were certain thoughts coming to my mind but I didn't want to accept them. For sure it would be nothing that bad. But the way she was loosing it inside that stall made me think otherwise and now my heart was in my throat.

"He's harassing me Aria." She broke down again, head hung low against my chest and my heart which was beating uneven just now, stopped completely.

Max was harassing Beth?

"What?" I breathe out in pure shock and tried to contemplate her words. Her confession. A confession I wish could've happened sooner.

He was harassing my friend. That was why she was flinching every time? Oh my God!

That bastard!!!

My expressions went hard and my hot tears stopped with my blood in my veins completely went dry at that moment. I looked at her with pity cause that's all I had left.

"How long he's doing this?" I asked cautiously. She was at a very fragile state of mind and anything stupid would ruin everything or could made things worse.

"Two weeks," She whispered with eyes looking anywhere but me. I shut my eyes and curled my hands as surely my knuckles were white now.

"Did you tell your Dad or Police?" I was investigating at this point and she seemed okay with it now. She wasn't crying anymore. Her red puffy eyes staring at the ground as she shook her head.

"I couldn't Aria. He's mentally weak to sink in that her daughter is being sexually harassed and you know Max's father is town's sheriff. There's no way he'd take actions against him. I can't do anything," She buried her face in her palms in defeat.

No Beth don't please!

More tears came out of my eyes as she continued to tell me more and more. I couldn't even take it and she was going through it all alone. My heart shattered in pieces completely.

She was my best friend. She was going through it and what I did? I never cared? F*ck you Aria Williams!

What she said about police was right But I for sure wasn't stopping. It'd only make things complicated for her and her family. Laws were running by money now and it'd only take some minutes to bail out Max with his father being a police officer.

A top one.

"What am I supposed to do?" My thoughts cut off by her voice as I put her head on my shoulder. "You won't, let me handle it my way. I will teach him how a man should supposed to be respective to a girl."

She raised her head to me in perplexity.

"Don't worry beth. You're definitely not alone. I'm with you, we'll fight together," She smiled with tears and hugged me tight buried her face in the crook of my neck.

I bit my lips to prevent tears but now they were a proof of my undying anger towards Max. I knew since he came how trash he was inside out. When he saw Ethan by my side and Leo by Gwen's side he straightforward thought of Beth. Thought she was alone but no way she was alone.

I stayed with her that night though couldn't sleep, all night I was so restless.

You better be prepared what's coming for you Max.

N

ext day while Max was sitting with his friends in the cafeteria. Beth and Gwen were at far on our table. Nate, Leo and Ethan were no where in side. I pulled the metal handle of the bucket and made my way inside.

Whole cafeteria was filled with loud chirpy, excited and laughs as I stepped inside still somehow managing the heavy bucket in my right hand. What I was doing would get me a detention but I had to do this or I wouldn't sleep at all.

I looked at Max as I saw his filthy eyes stuck to beth. Beth notice my presence as Max had his back to me.

My Luck.

I lunged towards him and without wasting a second poured the whole bucket of Black oil paint over his head. He gasped and stood up now turning to me.

Everyone inside these walls gasped, some even whistled in excitement of drama and started to record it.

"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT!" His growl didn't effect me a bit as I kept stood on my place with something in my both my fist.

"You think this is hell?" I questioned before stepped closer and opened my fist in front of his face and blew as hard as I could.

The second his eyes met with Black and red chilly powder he screamed and stumbled out of his chair on the ground in pain rubbing them.

Fucking molester!

I kneeled infront of him as he continued to wriggle unable to see around. Students kept filming the whole drama I just created and I didn't mind them.

"This is nothing for what you're doing to my friend Max. Stay the f*ck away from her or it'd be a lot worse then you could imagine. It's a threat like it or not." I whispered to him and no doubt a pinch he got my message.

I stood up to leave but didn't see as he stood up too and yanked me back by my hair. I shrieked as from the side of my eyes I saw Beth and Gwen both stood up too in defense.

But my hand met a soda can on table. Kicking him hard in a place sun doesn't shine I turned around and slapped him across his cheek with the soda can in my hand. The tab of it somehow was straight as it cut his skin of cheek right across from the jaw to cheek.

And a huge satisfaction cooled my inner rage to some level. He was yelping in pain but I didn't waste a second and left the cafeteria.

Gwen and Beth both joined me outside. From the look of Beth it assured me that she was feeling exact what I was feeling. A lot calmer though Gwen didn't know but her smile was approving my actions.

"That was amazing Aria!! To be honest I never liked him too. You should've told me about this, I'd have helped," It must be a game for Gwen but I didn't even tell Ethan nor any friends about it so I wasn't laughing at all.

As Gwen left us to her next class, beth hugged me tight.

"Thank you Aria. Thank you...What you did was nothing to what he was doing but It made me feel good. At peace that at least he got something in return."

I smiled slightly and waited and waited for sometime before patted her back. I wished I'd do something legal about this but what I had in next minute was a call from dad and found myself in principal's office with two weeks detention.

I couldn't look up to him as I knew he was disappointed but I never once I regretted what I did to his scar face standing by my side stinking like a trash can from blood.

His eyes cut to mine and I knew it wasn't over. "You'll pay for this Aria." He whispered which only I heard but I kept straight face not letting him read the fear started to grew inside me.

I wasn't afraid of him but the way he was glaring at me right then made my legs weak and I knew for sure it wasn't over.

"I didn't expect this from you Aria," That was from dad. He said before left me. I walked outside where I found Ethan standing against the wall. I smiled and hugged him.

"What the hell happened in the cafeteria. You okay? Why did you do it Aria?" He asked with voice full of worry but just like I never told anyone as I promised to Beth I never told Ethan why I did what I did.

"I love you," Was all I said before I left the school for two weeks detention.
