Chapter One

"Serenity and Paige, you better get your asses out of bed and vin manje! (come eat)" Mama shouted from the kitchen.

I groaned in annoyance as I got up off of my bed and shuffled into my bathroom and looked at my curls in the mirror which were pretty matted.

"My god it's so hard having black girl hair" I sighed.

After what felt like hours of fixing my curls, I got ready for school and made my way downstairs. When I came down my sister was sitting at the kitchen table and eating toast.

"Damn girl, you take mad long to get ready, mom left before you came downstairs, she said you took too long getting ready," My sister, Paige remarked, stuffing food in her mouth.

"Girl it's not my fault my hair wasn't cooperating"

"I didn't ask hoe"

"Suck a dick"

Paige sticks her tongue out at me and flips me off, I gave her the same energy back.

Paige and I ride to school with my best friends Whitney and Celeste, since my mom has to work early and doesn't have the time to drop us off.

After what seemed like ages, they finally pulled up into the driveway and we drove to school. When we got there, I said bye to Paige and went with Whitney and Celeste. We all link arms together as we make our way to school.

"Girl let me tell you, I was talking on the phone with Damian last night and then this nigga out of nowhere started talking about sum 'oh, we should find a girl and have a threesome' like what?" Celeste ranted.

"I tried to tell you his bum ass was a player" Whitney scoffed.

"Right, I mean homeboy deadass got the qualities of a male thot" I joked

"Y'all just say that because you wanna prove me wrong," Celeste said, rolling her eyes.

"Nah, I wanna TELL you you're wrong," Whitney said, while Celeste gave her the middle finger in response

I chuckled slightly and waved bye to Whitney and Celeste as they went to their first-period class. I opened up my locker to put my backpack inside and took out my biology book and pencil and made my way to biology. I sat in my seat next to my friend Jocelyn,

The first period was usually uneventful, the teacher would just talk on and on but I wouldn't listen because I already knew this stuff. I decided to put my AirPods in and listen to music. My teacher, Mrs. Caddel was usually chill about me using my phone in class since my grades aren't bad.

"Ms. Calixte, earbuds out please, I'm going over some instructions I need for everybody to listen" Mrs. Caddel began "I will be assigning a project worth 30% of your grade for this semester, I will pair you up with someone, and you must work together or else you both will have an automatic failure for the semester"

Half of the class groaned while Mrs. Caddel continued with the instructions.

"I hope you and I are paired together" Jocelyn whispers

"Same" I whisper back.

Mrs. Caddel's slow ass took about 10 minutes to go over the project and what to do and what not to do and shit, I already knew what I wanted to do for the project, I just hoped that my partner was someone who could cooperate.

"All right so for groups, we'll have, Nyima and Megan, Kalani and Evan, Jocelyn and Nathalie, Serenity and Miles, Dahlia and Javon, Alexandra and Weston..." She went on with the list but I was done listening.

I turned around to see who my partner was and locked eyes with a boy who I'm guessing is my partner, he had pale skin and dirty blonde hair. I assumed it was Miles because I've heard his name called a few times before, but I've never really interacted with him. Miles was the type of guy who mostly kept to himself, I know he's smart as hell and shy as fuck. I turn back around and lean back in my chair.
