BITE ME?

this story isnt as good as the ones below it..but it wasnt the best topic either.... so?

Bite Me
Bite me were the only words that were heard after the bell sounded, which told the students of Westwood High School that homeroom had begun. Although they all knew what the bell meant, they did not move, they were too mesmerized by the fight, between Caitlynn and Brianna, going on right in front of them. No one dared to try and break up the fight because they were being vicious towards each other, and they would have redirected their anger to anyone who attempted to interfere. However, it was my job to break them up because I was the only administrative figure in the office at the time.
Since I knew both the girls well it was not that difficult for me to break them up. They both listened and respected me, so all it took was me putting my hands between both of them and pushing them apart and saying enough. After they were separated I brought each girl into my office in the back corner of the main office.
The main office was brightly colored and each desk was decorated to match the personality of the owner. Some had pictures of their families, and pets, others had stickers, and random toys. My office was not too big, but not too small, it had one window that let in sufficient light. Under the window was my desk with my computer and phone on it. I also had a picture of my dog, Larry, and some pictures of my parents and sister. I was not married, and was not dating anyone, so the pictures that would entitle were not to be found. The walls of the room were a light pink, and the carpet was a whitish gray. In front of my desk were two comfortable chairs, and behind it was my computer chair.
When the girls and I were in my office I shut the door, and separated the two chairs so they were on different sides of the room. Then I put my chair between them and told them each to take a seat in each of the chairs. Then I sat down in the middle, on my chair.
I asked them both what had happened, and they both looked at me, and then each other, and then started screaming, and putting the blame of the fight on each other. The only way that I could calm them down was to whistle over them. They refrained from speaking and glanced at me for a second, then glared at each other with pure hatred.
After sitting there in awkward silence for a couple minutes I asked a question, not directed at either of them in specific, but to both of them.
“What happened between you two? You girls used to be best friends; I thought nothing would ever come between you.”
Neither of them could answer me, so I sent Brianna out into the main office and told her to wait there, while I talked to Caitlynn.
Caitlynn was a junior, and was seventeen years old. She was captain of the soccer team, and was in a lot of the clubs at the school. She was the kind of girl that would never get in trouble, she was usually the peace maker, and didn’t agree with violence, and fighting to get what you wanted.
After I came back into my office, and shut the door, Caitlynn looked up at me and I could tell she was on the verge of tears. I moved my chair closer to hers and sat down. She looked at me with her bright blue eyes, and then started crying. I didn’t know what to do. I gave her a hug and said everything would be alright, and told her that she had to talk to me about what happened.
I asked her what happened between her and Brianna. All she could say at the beginning was, “I don’t know.” Then I asked her when the last time she and Brianna had hung out, and out came the whole story, which was interrupted my sobs and sighs from time to time.
“Brianna and I have been friends since we were in kindergarten. We knew everything about each other, we told each other who we liked, who we didn’t, who we thought were hot, and who were not. When one of us liked someone the other one would back off, and promise not to mess with their love life. That worked until Brad moved here from Fredrick High. He was gorgeous, and he was in all of my classes. He and I became close friends, and I grew to like him. Little did I know that Brianna had a crush on him too, even though I had told her that I liked him. He asked me to the homecoming dance and I was so excited, the first thing I wanted to do was tell Brianna, thinking that she would be happy for me. I was very wrong though. When I told her she thought I was rubbing it in her face, and she thought that I was being a b**** to her, because she thought I broke the promise that I made to back off when she liked someone; when really she was the one who broke it.”
“So are you still going to the dance with Brad?”
“YEAH!” “I met Brad first, and I told Brianna that I liked him, and he asked me, why would I say no if my supposed best friend can’t get it through her head that he likes me instead of her? I really don’t care if she’s mad at me, and I know a guy isn’t worth losing a friend over, but I guess she never really was my friend if she’s being a jerk about this.” This response did not really surprise me.
“This is something that you and she will have to work out on your own. You guys have been friends forever; I can’t believe you’re going to let this Brad get between you two. I know you might really like him now, but you just met him, so that will probably change, and you will move on from him, but you won’t be able to do that as quickly if you don’t have a friend that you can talk to about him with.” After I said this to her all she could do was look at me. She didn’t know what to say.
After letting her think for a little while I sent her into the main office to sit and wait where Brianna had been. I brought Brianna back into my office had her sit down, and had her tell me her side of the story. The stories lined up almost exactly. Brianna admitted to being jealous of Caitlynn and said that she was sorry for it, and the fight, and all the drama that she caused. I told Brianna that it wasn’t me that she needed to apologize to it was Caitlynn. So I told Caitlynn to come back into my office, and then I walked out, leaving the two girls sitting there in silence.
When I walked into the main part of the office all the people in the room looked at my office door then at me, then the door, then me. Then one of them asked me why I had just left two girls that had just fought each other in an enclosed room alone.
I didn’t answer; I just walked over to the water machine, pulled a plastic cup out of the dispenser and filled it up. Then I walked back to my office. Knocked and walked in, the girls were standing there, in the middle of the room hugging each other and crying. They were both apologizing to each other, and Brianna told Caitlynn that she should go to the homecoming dance with Brad, and that she would find someone else to go with.
After they were done crying, and talking, I told them that I wasn’t going to have them suspended, but they were going to have two days of in-house suspension, and a week of detention. They agreed with out arguing, and then I sent them out of the office and back to class together. They walked together with their arms locked at the elbows.
I stood in the doorway of my office just so I could watch the reaction of the secretaries in the office as the two girls walked by them hand in hand not fighting, but as friends.
None of them knew how I was able to make them become friends again, and no one asked. But every time there was a fight at the school I was the go to counselor.
And even now, ten years later, I am still working at Westwood High as the fight counselor. Brianna and Caitlynn are still best friends, and both are married. Caitlynn and Brad ended up together with two kids, both of which are the god children of Brianna. And Brianna married someone she met in college. They have one son Caitlynn is the godmother of him.
