Blessing's point of view
Not only am I going back to public school but I'm going back into a junior high school. Isaiah's just going to junior high school. We never took him out of public.

"Aii, so y'all be good, have a good day." Chris puts the car in park in front of the school.

"Later." Isaiah gets out and walks off.

"Call me after practice it's gonna be raining so I'll come get you." Chris says out the window.

"Bless, are you gonna get out."

I silently get out and slam the door. I know he won't get out because he'll blow his cover.

"Aye, come here."

I walk over to the window.

"Don't test me right now. Youre acting like a brat. Have a good day. Back up." I step back from the curb and he drives off. I can't find Isaiah and I could feel the girls looking at me. Pulling up in a car that looks worth more than a persons life isn't exactly discreet.

I walk into the building feeling flustered and self conscious. My locker number C145. Im in front of locker a012. It would only make sense to go to the second floor right? Wrong. The second floor lockers are D's. I spot Isaiah In a crowd of boys.

"Hey, Isaiah. Can you help me-"

"Who's your girl?" Some boy cuts me off.

"I don't even know this girl." Isaiah walks off and leaves me looking stupid. Isn't he An awesome best friend? I don't even have time to chase him. The bell will ring in five minutes. I wonder why no ones approached me like "you look familiar." eventually I find a teacher and they help me with my locker and walk me to class. I walk into gym 5 minutes late, of course everyone happens to be distracted.

"Do you have a pass?"

"Mike, she was with me!" The teacher Ms.Mesa calls into the gym.

"Alright, so your either Ariana Sanders or Blessing Brown.. I've seen Ariana, so I'm guessing your Blessing?"

I nod and smile slightly.

"Well we're picking teams for volleyball. Anyone you know?"

I look around and see Isaiah.

"Yea. Isaiah Newman."

"Alright. Isaiah! She's on your team."

I can see him sigh and then he turns to his team and whispers. I walk over and stand on the side for most of the game. Until we rotate and it's my serve. When I serve the first 2times they're automatic outs. My 3rd time is foul because it hits the net. You know how boys can be about games.

"Really? You couldn't even hit one over?" Isaiah says.

"Why do you care. You don't know me."

"Whatever, maybe you should stick to cheerleading."

The conversations turns into a full blown argument. The bell ringing shuts both of us up and we continue on our way.

Lucky me to have every class with Isaiah. Every period he basically makes fun of me with his friends. I can usually ignore him, but sixth period he really got to me. He brought my mom into the mix. So I brought his mom into the mix. Then we were sitting in math full on arguing. Arguing led to pushing and pushing led to fighting and fighting led to the principals office. The principals office led to.... Chris. Well actually Dani. But that's only because Chris couldn't be here until the middle of seventh.
"Good evening, Ms...."

"Alvarez." Dani shakes the principals hand and takes a seat next to me. The principal explains the story to her with a few interruptions from Isaiah and I.

"Really? I can't believe this happened.... They've always been the best of friends." I can Dani reach over and pinch Isaiah after he mumbles something under his breath. Im not even worried cause Isaiah's going to be the one to get in trouble. I sit back and relax. Chris joins us later and he walks in pissed. I don't know what happened to him but I don't want to be the one to get in trouble. Once again the story is explained. Again with interruptions.
"...Okay. We will definitely have a conversation when we get home."

"Alright. Since Blessing was only going here for the three days. Shes suspended for those three days. Isaiah has ISS for the remainder of the week. They both have to go home now though."

Since when was I only going here for three days? Chris probably just wanted to try to see if I would crack. Cover blown.

"Alright. Thank you.Let's go." Chris basically pulls Isaiah out the chair by his hood for taking too long to get up. Once Chris gets physical you know you messed up. He must've been doing something important.

"I never had to come up here until Today." Chris says once we get in the car. Dani is following behind us and Isaiah is in the car with her.

"I hope your not implying that this is my fault."

"I'm not. I know you didn't start this. But I am saying you know right from wrong. That should've never got to fighting and you know it."

"Well then Isaiah needs to stop being a douche."

"Watch your mouth. This is bs. I'm at some place about to close a deal on a sneaker line. When my phone goes off. I answer because I assume someone's hurt. Being that the schools never called me before. When I get back into the room they tell me. Since they had more time to review my line they want another view days to sort everything out and to come back next week. Which basically means.... they're not closing the deal. I'm gonna let you know something. If they don't
close that deal. It's going to be a big problem for me."

When we get home Chris sits both us us down in the kitchen.

"So Isaiah, what was up today? I thought ya'll were best friends."

"Nah, we're not."

My heart kinda hurts. To find out that your best friend isn't best friends with you is a struggle.

"So what are we."

"We're brother and sisters." I could tell his still pissed at me, but has a soft spot.

"So would that make me like your dad?"

"You were like my dad from the time we started hanging out before my mom got hurt."

"If we're brother and sister why were you such a douche today?"

"Because first off youre a prima Dona, second off I have my own reputation. People don't need to know that I have connections with Chris Brown. Luckily most of our grade doesn't read magazines. And third Chris told me to make it like you didn't know anybody. He didn't tell us to argue or you to hit me in my..... hanging apples."

I look at Chris and he has a smirk on.

"Well doesn't matter now. Youre not going back."

"I get to be home schooled again?"
Chris nods.

"Go back to dance?"
He nods again

"Get my phone back?"

"No. I said you not getting that back. When you called Ty really pissed me off. By the time you get that back you will forget you had it."

I sigh and nod.

"Y'all not in trouble. But if this shit continues with you guys fighting. Then we're gonna have problems."
We both nod and go to our separate places
