He'll Thug For Me

The Thought Of

The next day I got ready for school. Unlike the other days, I was happy to go. I felt confident and had new clothes.

I picked out a long sleeve plaid shirt that was mostly white with black stripes and a grey tshirt that had California written on it with the number 1984 written underneath. And chose these faded denim pants that were cuffed at the end and wore my new black Nikes. Then I let my hair stay a curly messy.

I know I'm not the best looking girl but I felt beautiful today and ain't nobody raining on it.

Alicia walked into the bathroom while I was leaving out. "When that hoe bitch leaves everything goes back to normal including yo basic ass." She pushed me out of the rest of the bathroom and slammed the door.

I looked down the quiet hallway and back to to the bathroom. Even if I didn't want to admit, Alicia was right. Trishika is the reason why I'm where I am.

Forgetting about Alicia, I headed to school. Unlike other days people noticed me, even a guys were trying to holla but what they fail to realize I don't need a fck boy I have Jace.

The first part of school went by better that I expected. People talked to me. They complimented my change. I was noticed.

"So you busy this weekend? Doin what?" This guy name Devontae asked.

He was in my health class. Always made jokes about me but today wanna holla. Nigga please.

I nodded, "School work."

Devontae wiped his mouth, smiling, "Shit me, too. Come to my place and I'll teach you a few things."

The bell rang. Shit I'm late for class cause of his lame ass. "My boyfriend wouldn't like that. Excuse me." I sidestepped him and walked away.

Jace and I may not be official but it felt good as hell saying that. I'm not ruining what I got with Jace for Devontae's temporary ass. Fck that.

I slip into English while Mr. Dawson was writing something on the board. "Oh my God." I heard someone say.

Mr. Dawson turned around and looked me confused, "Excuse me, you're in the wrong class or are you a new student?"

What? Puzzled I responded, "I'm Maia." I been here all year.

Mr. Dawson took a step back and examined me then his eyes went wide. "Maia Sebastians?"

I slowly nodded, "Uh yes sir."

" Well I'll be..." he cleared his throat. "...no more tardies or detention...have a seat please."

I nod and head to my seat avoiding everyone's burning stare. The stares are starting to get to me. I'm not use to them unless it's negative.

I take my seat beside Kira who hasn't taken her eyes off me yet.

"Did you get laid?" She finally asked.

"No why?" I asked.

"Cause your shit is on fleek today girl. Work it, work it."

I laughed looking down. "Thank you Kira."

She nodded then told me about her weekend. A lot of sex was involved. I then told her about the clothes and Jace and I kissing. She said she knew it was going to happen.

Shit I didn't.

After the bell rang we talked in the hallway.
"So we should work on the project this weekend at my house."

I nod, "Okay."

Flynn walks up and wraps an arm around Kira. "Happy babe. Looking good Maia."

I smile, "Thanks."
