Clover appreciated Bram's help up, but not that he'd caused this whole mess (in the moment, Clover was ignoring the fact that half of it was his idea, too). One of the older boys taunted them and Clover tried to sneer at him like he wasn't intimidated- but then one of the other boys pretended to be hung and he started shaking. "That's not funny!" he cried, gaze suddenly becoming fierce, and his hands curled into fists.
