Kabwe,17, gets transferred to a new high school in LA,California in her senior year. As a new student and only African originated girl in most of her classes,she gets prone to bullying.
But Kabwe suddenly makes new friends and creates a circle fille...
Cameron and his friends, Darren and Reid are accompanying me in the nurse's office all in silence. Well,so am I.
I got my aid and medication then later some advice on getting Jelena and her friends suspended for doing this to me.
Of course, they'll get suspension. They can't walk away freely and shit. What if I could've died? Oh, they would see the Black community march on the streets again.
Darren Is talking to Reid somewhere in the corner. Cameron is right beside me ready to pay an ear to whatever I have to say or ask for. It could be water or maybe something else.
Suddenly, Darren and Reid get up from their seats and they look ready to leave. I slowly get up trying to sit up straight and with no hesitation Cameron helps me up.
"You okay?" He asks concerned.
"Yeah,thank you," I say and I look at Darren and Reid.
"Are you guys leaving now?" I ask kinda saddened like I won't be able to see them in school again.
"Yeah. My driver is here and so I've got to leave with Reid because we live in the same neighbourhood," Darren says and I nod in approval.
"You'll be fine because captain here is with you. Right, Cameron?" Reid teasingly asks his friend who playfully rolls his eyes at him.
"Shut the fuck up,will you?" He says and Reid laughs.
Darren chuckles and grabs his back pack.
"We'll see you guys tomorrow. Don't make out," he says and I roll my eyes at his statement but I don't dare say a thing.
"Okay,you may leave now,guys. Thank you," Cameron says to his friends gesturing them to leave.
"Alright,we're leaving,geez!" Reid says walking to the door with Darren exiting.
"Thanks for saving my life guys. I appreciate it," I tell the two boys and they smile at me.
"Any friend of Cameron's is a friend of ours. So don't stress about us helping out,we'll do anything if you need shit done," Reid lays his life on the line and I weakly and lightly smile at him.
"Thank you so much," I say and they look at their team captain.
"Bye,Cameron. See you tomorrow," Darren says and they both walk out leaving Cameron with me.
Cameron sighs.
I look at him and he looks at me.
"How are you feeling now?" He asks examining my bruises and soothingly tracing his fingers on my face. He feels bad for me.
I politely take his hand off my face.
"Sorry," he says after realising he touched me without permission.
"You should be but it's cool. And I'm not dead so that means I'm okay," I tell him and he chuckles.
"I'm so sorry for this. I can't believe Jelena and her friends beat you up because of me. I don't understand this shit," Cameron angrily says.
"I'm surprised too. I also barely know you and I'm just confused why she'd do this to me. Talk to your girlfriend because she might kill me soon enough," I say to him and he holds my hands and looks me right in the eyes.
He licks his perfectly designed lips and speaks up making me have butterflies again by this sudden action.
"She's not my girlfriend and I'm not her boyfriend. Plus,we're friends now,Duncan," he tells me and I politely get his hands away from mine.
"You don't listen do you? Don't touch me," I speak up a little annoyed. I know I'm supposed to be gushing over the fact that Cameron---the hottest guy in school is holding my hand but I hate such acts despite you being praised.
Ever heard of boundaries?
"I'm so sorry,really," he says and I sigh.
"Whatever. I also need to let you know that we're not friends,Cameron,I just don't think so," I tell him and he chuckles and leans back in his chair looking at me.
"My friends and I think you are. Just don't let Jelena get to your head," he says and I scoff.
"She already got to my head. She got to my head already along with Scarlett and the rest of their friends. You're the reason this has happened to me so I think it's best we don't make this 'friendship' official," I tell Cameron and he's silent now.
"I appreciate you saving my ass but I'd also love it if you left me all by myself now. I'll be waiting for my mom to come and pick me up," I say but Cameron doesn't move an inch to leave.
"I'm not going anywhere. It's my responsibility to look after you and wait till your mom shows up," he replies and I roll my eyes at him.
"Just go away,will you? I do not want to get in anymore trouble because of you," I say to him and take out the sketch of the sun and the moon he gave me to use to get inspiration from to make his necklace and I extend my hand over to him to take it.
Cameron looks saddened.
"Take it. I don't want anything to do with you," I say and he looks at me like I don't mean what I'm saying.
"You're not serious,are you?" He asks.
"Do I look like I'm bluffing? No,I'm serious. So take it," I tell him and he gets the sketch from me.
He gets up from his seat.
"I'll see you tomorrow,Duncan. I can't wait to continue hanging out with you and get better soon," he says and walks out of the office.
I'm just sitting on the bed feeling confused about why the hottest guy in school would want to be my friend and I feel upset about being beat on my second day of school.
Shit!
I just wish Karan and Luwi were here but they're out with the principal representing our school in the elective classes we seniors take.
Geez,fuck this school!
