Under your skin
Feel my blood flow with yours
My heart beat with yours
Sharing this body as one
Save me as I save you
This skin holds enough room for two
Under my skin
I belong with you
As you belong with me

I was officially allowed back on school grounds, and ironically, this was the last week of school before Christmas and New Year break. I could've stayed home.
Coming back to school a relaxing my reputation was now summed up as "I'll fuck anybody up" wasn't a nice thing for me to find out but I took it as a blessing in disguise. Maybe the bitch who wants to try me will know better.
From what Nessa and Xavier told me, Gianna was about to be expelled due to my mom's request but instead, her father transferred her before expulsion could be on her permanent record. Which was fine with me. My mom said most of what she said to scare some sense into Gianna and her father, I didn't want the girls life to be ruined. Don't be mistaken, I have no empathy for racist. I just simply don't care. Her Karma will come, and no, it wasn't me tapping that ass across the hallway. Another form will rise in her life and show her, her true self and she'll be embarrassed but that's no longer my business.
"Glad to have you back Miss Taylor." Mr. Reed spoke as he handed out the winter break assignment. I gave him a polite smile taking the two sheets in hand, giving the second to Xavier.
"Thank you baby."
I gave him a smile before placing the sheet down and reading over the instructions.
I know Thanksgiving is over, but every day is a day to be grateful. For your break assignment I want you to draw,paint, sculpt (it doesn't matter) someone in your life you're grateful for. It can be more than one person, so if some of you were thinking of family, create a family portrait. If you're thinking of one person, then I guess your job is much easier. Depending upon you, some pieces will be shown in the spring Showcase, but if you wish to keep your piece personal, just allow me to grade it and you can take it back home.
Enjoy your breaks- Mr. Reed.
I sat back and looked over at Xavier who was sketching in his book.
"You read the assignment?"
"Yea."
"Whatchu gonna draw? Vanna?"
"Don't be nosy. If I want you to see it." He turned to me with a smile. "You'll see it."
The bell rang and he winked at me before standing to his feet.
"Come on, we dropping you off in the gym."
"I wanna skip." I whined.
"First day back and you acting out. Go to class."
"I don't like sweating."
He gave me a look with his eyebrow raised and laughed. I reached out and slapped his arm.
"Stop being nasty."
"I ain't even say nothing."
"You're face said enough." I mumbled, beginning to walk off.
