Bleddyn offered a nod after Lachlan, neither apologetic or offensive. He'd gotten in the way, received the unavoidable blows, and in turn had gotten her back fair. They were contently even now.
She barely flinched when Gage put a restraining hand on her shoulder. "Of course, do whatever you need to," she muttered in complete acceptance of her rightful fate. It's not as if her parents getting a call about her voluntary participation in a scuffle was anything out of the ordinary.
Caught completely unawares, Bleddyn was thrown out from beneath Gage's mollifying grasp. She pulled her knees up to her chest as the feral boy came at her from above. When she could, she violently thrust her knees upward. She waited until she heard his gasp as the impact robbed his lungs of their air, and then rolled to the left. She was back on her feet in an instant, slamming a shoeless foot down onto his gut. At this point, she didn't care that was a coward's move that inflicted next to zero damage; he'd gone even lower with his delayed attack, and right as they'd been detained by the manager. I can only hold him down so long...if at all... "Alright, when it's over, it's over, buddy," she snapped, breath hissing out between words.
