My Friends and I Aren't Safe

{Sorry to use names but it will be so much easier to explain without “he said she said”} Ciera and Ashley beat my friend Benji up today. They waited for him to come out of the bathroom during lunch. I happened to be on my way to the bathroom with my friend Jessica. The girls shoved him against a wall, threw full pop cans at him, and just hurt him so bad. His head hit the wall so hard he had to go to the hospital. This all happened because Benji broke up with Rosio. Then they go to the bathroom talking about it. Jessica went out with Benji and those girls think they like each other again. Benji told the counselors. Rosio talked with them and they just laughed. The girls are going to team up on Jessica and beat her up too now. She’s really small and wouldn’t defend herself well. We’re all scared for her so we don’t let her go ANYWHERE around school by herself. Ciera and Ashley hate me, Jessica, and Kelsey. We didn’t do anything to them!! Now all of us are in danger! Ciera wants another friend of mine, Sara, to have a huge party this weekend. Sara’s pretty much forced to hang out with these girls. She doesn’t like them either. So me and all my friends just aren’t safe walking by ourselves anymore. We’re going to talk to the vice principal tomorrow morning about this and hope he does more than the councelors did and also that he’ll keep our identities private. I don’t think they all even got suspended! I know they would try to hurt us, and I hate violence and hurting people so I don’t know if any of us could do anything if they ever do. Please, please does anyone have any other advice? There’s a lot to this story and I hope it made sense. I just don’t want anyone to get hurt, especially Jess. Thank you so much!! xoxo
