Misunderstanding and she blocked me on social media, what to do?

I messaged her on social media for half a year. High school. We go to different schools now, but still live really close by.

I always initiated conversations, but she always seemed to be engaged in them.

She did ignore my texts that didn't require a response, about 5 of them.

Early on, she asked me why I messaged her so much and I told her that I noticed her and was curious about her, but sorry if I bothered her. She said oh that makes sense, you're not bothering me at all.

Recently, towards the end of a conversation I made a slight joke about her and she didn't take it lightly and I think I got her mad. Then she asked me "why I ask her so many questions, sorry just curious".

I was busy, so I couldn't reply, then she double texted me 1/2 hour later and said "sorry?". I was going to reply an hour later when I wasn't busy anymore, but then I realized she blocked me by then.

I just don't know what to do now. I have no other means of contacting her if she blocked me.

She blocked me since she thought I was ignoring her, but I was just busy.

I could ask my friend to message her or I could message her friend and explain, like next week to let things cool down.

I thought things were going great, but I feel like I really screwed up by making her mad and then not responding quickly enough. But it's not my fault, I feel really bad...

Any thoughts, ideas?
Why would she just block me so quickly?
Huge misunderstanding, text her friend or my friend text her.
She's mad at me and she's not interested, forget her and move on.
