Amir sat at a desk in the back of the room. He smiled warmly at me and waved for me to come sit next to him. I smile back and make my way to the seat next to him. He pulls out his phone and starts typing something.

I hear my phone buzz and look to see what it was

Amir: You were late for class, too?

I smile at his message and start typing my response

Me: yep, with help from you.

Amir: I'm sorry, I just couldn't help it ur so pretty I had to see u again.

I blush and look over at him and he winks at me.

Me: Well now you get to see me again in dentition.

Amir: Yeah, I'm sorry for that but I have a question.

Me: wassup?

Amir: You got a boyfriend cuz I can be that one for you?

I took a moment to make sure I was reading the message correctly. Dude ass was putting all his game on me.

Me: Oh, okay u got some game. I'll give you that.

Amir: I try my best to get the things I want, that's all.

Me: I can tell.

Amir: But what are you planning to do tomorrow?

Me: Nothing much why, you ask?

Amir: You wanna go to this party with me tomorrow night?

Ok this is moving fast as hell but it seems cool. I look at him with a smile and start to type my response.

Me: Sure, why not.

Amir: Yess, I'll pick you up around 8 and text me your addy.

I texted him my address and we started a new conversation, getting to know each other. Once detention was over, he walked me to my car.

"See you tomorrow night," Amir says as I open my car door.

"See you tomorrow," I reply with a smile.

When I got home, I FaceTimed the four chain gang, AKA my friends.

"Y'all will not believe what happened while I was in detention."

"Girl, what happened?" Maria responds with a giggle.

I tell them what happened from me almost falling down the stairs and meeting the cutest boy at the party he invited me to in detention.

Giovannie had hung up after I told them about it because he had to help get his little brothers get ready for a play date. So it was just me, Maria, and Gisele.

"Ohh okay. I see you, girl." Gisele hypes me up.

"I gotta see what he looks like first since you swear he is so cute."

"Girl, you know my taste is way better than that of the rats you talk to," I say. Gisele laughs and Mariah rolls her eyes.

"Nova, come help me get the groceries out of the car. Oh and I got you a new backpack." My mom yells from down stairs.

"Anyways, I gotta go to my moms calling me."

"All right, girl, love you like no other," Gisele says

"Like you're my mother and my brother." Mariah continues, adding Giovanni's part to hers.

"We could never part."

"Because we're each other's hearts."  We say in unison, this was a rhyme we made up in middle school for fun. It was super corny but none of us were ever going to stop using it.
