Logan's PO.V

I was in school and August really didn't come to school, I sat down in class and took out my books, I found 10 dollars in the hoodie pocket but I didn't wanna spend because the hoodie didn't belong to me...i was doing my work and August sat right next to me....I smiled and looked at him

Me: *low* you came

August: yeah

Me: you had ten bucks in your sweater, it's in my locker

August: I know that was for you

Me: really

August: yeah did you eat last night

I didn't want him to actually know because I'm sort of embarrassed about it

Me: yeah

He gave me that yeah right face, and I tried to look away

August: what chu ate

Me:........I had .........I had um

I'm not such a good lier, he looked at me and raised his eyebrow

August: come with me fa lunch

Me: August it's fine

August: no it's not

Me: augu(GCO)

August:*staring at me*

I think I was buggin but I could've sworn I saw his eyes turn a different color, like a golden color I blinked and looked away...

*lunch*

I was leaving my locker and jodicy came by pushing me in the locker, I got scared because he's way taller nd muscular, quarter back on the football team..

Jodicy: stay out of my way

Me: I wasn't in your way, you're the one that pushed me

Some girl came by and looked me up and down it was jodicy's girlfriend .........she doesn't do anything she's just a loud gum popping female dog...

Toya: Jo why you messin wif da foster child

Me: *lookin down*....... I have a name

Toya: did I fuckin ask you ....ah wait I wasn't even talkin to yo ass don't get slapped BITCH

I tucked my lips in and held my breath, I didn't do absolutely anything to them and this is what I get I walked away and toya pushed me making me fall on my stomach, I laid my hands on the floor and when I was pushing myself up someone came nd grabbed my arm pickin me off the floor...it was August...he picked my books up and without looking at me slapped them against my chest

August:*lookin at toya nd jodicy* dat was real un nessesary don't chall think so

Jodicy:*lookin at August*

August: don't make me get crazy in chea cuz I will *pushes him* so da next time I see you or ya bitch put hands on her it's gone be a big problem ya heard

Jodicy:*nods*

August walked my direction signalizing for me to follow him, while I put my books in my book bag walkin out the school, as soon as we did and we got at the end of the block i couldn't hold it

Me: what did you do to have them intimidated by you

August: nun I Juss don't take no shit

Me: so why didn't chu help me the first time

August: cuz I didn't know you

Me: you still don't know me

August: I'm gettin to.....plus I knoe mo den you think

Me: where we goin

He stopped as his sneakers made a quick skip against the little pebles on the floor, he looked at me and raised his eyebrow turning his snap back around to the back

August: when you gone stop askin me so many damn questions lil girl

August: yeah you is, look it here.....how old are you

He started walking again and I followed behind him

Me: wadda bout you how old are you
