Devon POV:

Was sup yall. I'm Devon as u already know. I am the son of the biggest drug lord in the ATL, Jeremiah. My dad plans on me taking on the business but I don't wanna do that. I wanna be a shoe designer. I don't know how to tell my dad that tho. O well.......

Anyways I'm up here siting in class with the crew and bae and Harmony and this girl that looks really familiar walks in behind her.

Harmony: "Cici this is my crew, Brittany, Justin, Devon, and my boyfriend Kalib."

I gave her a head nod. She just stood there looking at me then finally she sat down.

Jamie: "Um...... you forgot about me."

O lord here comes the drama I thought to myself.

Harmony: "No I didn't. U not in my crew. U just a sideline hoe that wished u could roll with us." Jamie rolled her eyes and mugged the shit out of Harmony.

Jamie: "Anyways I'm Jamie. Devon's girlfriend."

Cici: "Nice to meet u."

Justin: "Hey u look mad familiar. Have I seen u sum where."

Cici: "Idk. I just moved back here."

Brittany: "O where r u from?"

Cici: "Cali."

Kalib: "Is Cici your real name?" All deez damn questions.

Ciara: "Nah my name is Ciara."

Me: "Johnson?"

Ciara: "Yea."

Me: "Omg. Ciara it's really u. Wow! U look soooo different. How u been?" She looked at me with so much hatred and disgust. "What, y r u lookin at me like that?"

Ciara: "No reason."

Jamie: "You know her?"

Me: "Yea we go way back."

Ciara: "Yea Way back." She said giving a fake smile.

I looked at her in confusion. Then the late bell rang and I couldn't help, but look at Ciara. She look so damn good but I'm trynna figure out what's up with that attitude. Imma address her about this shit.

After class

I walked out of class and waited for Ciara to come out.

Jamie: "Hey babe. Come on. What u waitin for?"

Me: " Nothin imma catch up with you later."

Jamie: "Ok babe. " She said giving me a kiss on the cheek then walking off. Shortly after Ciara walked out the class with Harmony and Brittany.

Me: "Hey Ciara can I talk to u for a sec?"

Ciara: "Um............Sure." We began to walk down the hall.

Me: "So um.....how you been?"

Ciara: "Um........good......I guess."

Me: "You guess?" She just nodded her head. "Yo wht is up with this attitude. Like u don't want to talk to me? What did I do to u?"

Ciara: "You really don't remember do you?"

Me: "Nah." She took a deep breath and started to talk.

Ciara: "In middle school. You were my only friend and u just embarrassed me in front of your friends called me out my name and didn't even talk to me. You knew my parents died that year and you didn't even care. You just made a complete fool of me. U ditched me for them. And that shit really hurt because I actually liked you. You treated me like shit. I wanted to kill myself after all those rude things that u said. U were the reason why I wanted to move." Hearing that just made me feel bad. I do remember doing and saying all that stuff and I regretted from that day on.

Me: "I am sooooooo sorry Ciara. I didn't mean to hurt you like that. I was a kid. I was stupid. Ciara can you please forgive me and can we be friends again? Please?" I said pulling her into a huge bear hug.

Ciara: "yeah.....I guess so......but u hurt me alot." She said in between tears.

Me: I know I'm so sorry."

With that I walked her to her next class.

LUNCH TIME

Ciara POV:

Harmony: "So have you seen any cute boys that u like?" I'm not gonna lie there was a lot of fine ass boys here but.......idk I think I maybe still like Devon.

Me: "Um.....there r some cute boys here but I just got out of a bad relationship. So......."

Brittany: "Oooo girl tell me everything. Don't leave nothing out."

We sat down at a table and I told them everything. I told them from the cheating to my grandma dying to me moving back here and even that story that happened in middle school.

Harmony: "Damn girl. U been through a lot. Don't worry we gonna make sure dis is a drama free year for you."

Me: "Thanks girl." Just then I got a text from the last person I wanted to think about.

Josh:Karma told me bout ur gma. I'm srry for yo lost.
Cicigirl:Yea thxs is that all

{END OF TXT CONVO}

I couldn't believe it I just sat there looking at my phone.

Harmony: "Girl what is wrong with u?"

Brittany: "Are you ok?"

Me: "He's coming."

Harmony: "Who's coming?"

Me: "Josh."
