Gia
August 24, 2015
I packed up the last of my suitcase and closed it looking around my room and taking everything in, I'm finally moving out and going to college. I been waiting for this day since my mother been tryna control my life, and it's finally here. But I lowkey don't wanna go: Niyah just had the twins, we just started talking again, and now I'm moving all the way to California.
California is almost like New York, just warmer, more beautiful, more driving, and my boyfriend... ex-boyfriend lives in Cali. Chres and I have been together for four years but it seems like we've been growing apart, like completely apart. I lied and told him I was going to Miami for college; and he's ignored me ever since. It was after a petty argument, I just wanted to make him mad, but it seems like the boy hates me now. But one thing I know for sure is that once I show up to Cali, we'll be right back to "Gia and Chresanto."

I got off the plane and started walking out the gate to find Princeton. I told him about the surprise for Chres and he agreed to pick me up and take me to his house. Prince is the only other person I'm really cool with in Cali, so I'm glad he was willing to help.
I looked around the whole airport 'til I found his big Afro; he was dressed in a long muscle tee and black ripped jeans. At least he's not wearing sheets like his buddy Ray Ray.
"Princeton!!!" He looked my way and smiled with his arms out as I ran to give him a hug. "Prince I missed you so much!"
"I missed you too Gia." We hugged for a little while longer 'til I pulled away. "Ayeeee you finally got your growth spurt? And a little muscle?! Oh shit, I see you!" I teased and squeezed his arm a bit. Prince has always been a lil scrawny thing, and he's finally growing older.
He laughed and took my hand, walking towards the baggage claim to get my stuff. "Thank you Princey." I smiled when he handed them to me and followed him out to his car where of course, there was paparazzi. After putting my bags in the car he took my hand pulling me over to the passenger seat and opened the door. Princeton is my best friend, and only that; but our closeness intimidates a lot of people.
"Wassup with you and Gia, Princeton? Now that Roc has a baby you're up on that?"
"I don't know what you're talking about man, Gia is my best friend." He closed the door and started walking over to the driver's seat.
"And Roc's baby? How does it feel to be a uncle, man?"
"I don't know what you're talking about." He got in and started the car. "Can y'all move out the way? Damn." They moved, still snapping pictures, and he drove away towards Chresanto's house.
"Why were they talking about a baby? You have something to tell me?" I don't usually believe the media or paparazzi, but when it comes to Chres's friendly ass I have to question it.
