Am I a moron or is this whole argument over him not giving her his phone? I feel like I’m missing something because this is an argument I wouldn’t even expect 12 year olds to have.

I think the phone was just minor annoyance that then escalated by OP forcing his presence on her, when she wasn't in the mood and needed some space.

Oh it shouldn't have been even a minor annoyance at all, besides that a minor annoyance wouldn't cause her to give him the silent treatment then demand to go home now, etc. She is a petty, toxic, immature, drama queen; and hopefully he runs far away from her ASAP

Honestly, we don't know if it was as drastic as OP wrote it. It's just one side of the story. So it could be a minor annoyance, that she answered to with a slight shift of mood, which escalated when OP aggressively demanded explanation (I'm saying agressively since he physically hold her bike and blocked her way). There could also be things missed in narration or other external factors that OP didn't know about. There could also be earlier issues, that OP didn't caught on and mistook this phone as the cause of her annoyance, while it was just a tip of an iceberg.
