"Hi, I'm T-"
"Oh baby I know who you are. Your Tamzyn Tames. But you don't know who I am, I'm Jackson Harris. Finally we meet."
"quien coño eres tú? Lover boy." Myah says.
She is not taking any of his shit! She always has my back!
"Why are you so aggressive at 7am? I don't understand" Jackson says.
"Because you seem like an ass!" The other 6 girls agree with Erika who finally shows up and chimes in.
"I didn't mean to come off that way, my apologies."
"Tamzyn, why are you so fucking quiet?! Bitch your NEVER quiet!" Carry chimes in.
Damn my friends just love callin me out. I swear I can't form the words to say anything to this strange new kid who seems to know me. Which worries me a bit, what exactly does he know?
"Sorry, in my own little world over here" I say.
He's gorgeous. Shoulder length dreads, green eyes, snakebites, and a swag that's unseen at my preppy school. He's got that hood look and vibe mixed with something else I can't put my finger on yet. The deep vibration in his voice tells me he must smoke, and the white of his teeth tell me it can't be cigarettes. He's the perfect hood stoner in the middle of all this white.
"It's okay beautiful" he says.
My girls all laugh and put in little slick coughs like "corny", "kiss ass" and "goofy". God I love them.
"So how exactly do you know me?" I ask him.
"I hear things love. Some very interesting things about a girl named Tamzyn Tames. A girl with long light brown hair, hazel eyes, and thick as hell. I'm going to just admit that all of those are true."
I look from Myah to Erika, to Carry to Selly. This shit is kinda weird.
" I also know that she is the "special freshman" here. Hangs out with all the upperclassman, partying with them. That's not usual."
"Well papi, that's because my prima is the shit!" Myah says and all the girls agree with her, giving her dabs. The first bell rings. Fuck it's 7:15 already?! Ugh. Now I have to go to AP Bio. I'd rather die at this point.
"Well Mr. I know everything about you, we have to go. If you find me later, we might get to talk a bit more without my loca friends. Let's bounce Chicas."
"Vamonos girls. Bye Mr. Know It All!" Carry says.
"Bye bro" the rest of the girls are so rude sometimes. Damn I love them.
"Good bye ladies. Tamzyn, I'll see you later." And with after a wink, my girls and I are up and gone.
