The Story Behind A Pretty Face

Chapter 5

What the hell was her problem? She doesn't even know me. I smacked my lips, "Damn what Alayna? I do have a class you know?"

She seemed shock that I knew her name. She raised an eyebrow. "How do you know my name? I damn sho don't know you."

I rolled my eyes," You damn sho' don't."

There were 3 other girls in the bathroom with her. One was dark, tall, and had super long jet black hair, well probably not her hair. She seemed unbothered but also bored by Alayna's interrogation, "Alayna", she sighed, "I do have a Statistics class to get to, you know? Ask the girl whatever you want to ask her bout that boy."

Alayna glared at her. Oh that boy? This was about Chase? Wait, she swears she doesn't know me. She probably doesn't even know I'm Chase's sister. She was about to open her mouth to speak, but the door suddenly bust open.

"Mika, chyle there you are. Had me sitting in Biology alone and shit!", Nelly finally noticed the rest of the party, "Is there a problem?"

Alayna looked at me,"Stay away from Chase. He's mine."

I swear Nelly was on it before I could comprehend what was happening.

"Bitch I've been waiting to rock yo ass for some time now. You just gave me a good ass reason. Who the fuck are you? Bitch nobody, no damn body! If she wanna be around that boy she can. Hell that's her-", I snatched Nelly back before she could finish. For some reason I didn't want Alayna to know why Chase and I were so close.

Alayna, who had been stepping back the whole time with a nervous face while Nelly was ranting, was now laughing. "I have better things to do than to participate in this ghetto drama. Bye new girl and Bonquiesha!"

Nelly waited a few minutes after their exit before she spoke. "Look we are super late for class. I slipped out before the bell rang to look for you. Sorry I didn't come get you. I thought Tone would bring you back to me."

We walked to the class as I shook my head. Nelly was talking about me like I was a child.

Our teacher, Mr. Steele, didn't have much to say after Nelly explained that this was my first day ever stepping foot in this school.

As I walked to my seat, Mike caught my attention. He was in the very back of the classroom. I noticed the seat in front of him was empty. Nelly was seated in the seat beside it. Guess I'm sitting in front of ole Mike.

Mr. Steele was very brief with his speech. I was grateful. I was ready to go home. I didn't speak to anybody until the final bell rang.

Nelly grabbed her bag, "You riding with Chase?"

"Yeah, we have to go get my little sister. I'll see you tomorrow. "

She nodded. Mike was leaning against the wall, probably waiting for some of the traffic to clear out. He saw me looking and offerred a smile. I just blushed.

I walked toward the parking lot to find Chase already sitting on the car. That bitch was also there.

"Oh my god, can you please stop stalking us?"

Chase turned to look to see who was the object of her rage. He raised a confused eyebrow when he only saw me.

I ignored her, "We have to get trinity, you know."

That hit him," Oh shit I forgot! Let's go." He pecked his little friend on the cheek. And slid into the car. I followed. Alayna was staring at us in disbelief as we pulled off.

I just stared at Chase as he drove. He finally turned to me. "Damn, what sis? Something on my face?"

I huffed, "You already got a girlfriend?"
