It's the first day of Fall semester at William H. Turner University. Alexis pulls up to campus already 10 minutes late to her first class. Traffic was savage, but she still felt the need to stop for breakfast and so she did.

On her way into the building, she bumps into a girl, knocking her books to the floor. They flew half way across the hall and even though Lex was so tempted to keep walking, she didn't. In a hurry, she picked up the books and handed them back. As she looked up to apologize, her eyes met the face of a beautiful dark skinned girl. Her eyes sharp and bright. She greeted Lex with a forgiving smile.

"Thank you, you didn't have to do that."

Lex replies "Nah, I did. It would've been rude of me if I didn't."

"I'm just saying, I wouldn't mind being hijacked for my books everyday by someone as cute as you."

Lex smiles, "Well, I'm late to Chem so.."
She turns around and walks to the science wing.

They both look back at each other one more time, smiling.

Lex enters the Chem lab.

"You're late. Take a seat in the back Mrs. Latimore." Professor Raul says, remembering Lex from last semester.

Lex walks to the back and finds a seat next to Layla, a girl she had English with last semester.

"Myy niggaa" Layla whispers.

Lex greets her with a hand shake, "Wassup, Lay."
She pulls out her books and joins the rest of the class.

Afterwards, Lex goes to meet with Kenya at the Cafe'.

"Heyy baby" Lex greets her girlfriend, leaning in for a kiss.

"Nah uh" Kenya pulls back and smacks her.

"What the fuck was that for?" Lex yells.

"Don't play stupid now foo', I peeped you talking to that bitch in the hallway", Kenya snaps.

"Wait what? .. Ohhh, her. Why she gotta be all that?"

Folding her arms Kenya says, "Shut the fuck up Lex, who is she??"

"I don't KNOW Kenya, Damn. I knocked her books on the floor so I picked them up for her. That's it."

Kenya rolls her eyes. "Mhm, just like how I'm bout to knock yo Fucking head off yo neck, quit lying. I saw y'all flirting and shit."

Lex sucks her teeth, "We had a meaningless conversation Ken, Really? I don't have time for this today."

Kenya surprised at Lex's response, "OOHH, so now you ain't got time for me but you got all the time in the world to make conversation with these hoes? You know what, FUCK you Lex, I'm so tired of yo shit!"

Lex steps up to Kenya, "Then why the fuck you still here? Huh?"

Kenya pushes her out of frustation, "Man, BYE!"

Lex walks In the cafe' and buys a small box of pizza. After she wolfs it down, she heads to her last and favorite class of the day.

"Lex! Wassup?!" Someone yells as she walks through the Fine Arts Hall. Lex looks up to find Jen, her dance partner of 3 years.

"Yo, what's good Jen?" Lex responds blankly.

"Why you look upset? You're usually smiling when you get here. Something bothering you?" Jen asks in a soft tone.

"Man, you know Kenya be tripping, always thinking I'm cheatin and shit." Lex answers.

"Well, uh it's only because you've done it before. She just loves you, even though you ain't shit. She been rocking with you for a long time."
