JADE

It was a new morning. I left home and met with Desirae at the bus shed.

"You know." I started. "You could've finished telling Makena that statement."

"I'll do what I want when I want." Desirae said. "You confess. I'll confess, remember?"

"I know. I'm working on it, too. But-"

"You have it easier than I do, Jae. Unlike Makena, Asia's interested." Desirae said. "You think so?"

"You can't be that blind or dumb, Jae." Desirae said. "Well. You are dumb, but come on."

"You females love to diss me and I don't even do shit." I said. "Girl." Desirae stared at me. "Be fucking for real."

I chuckled.

At school, I strolled into class. I looked over at Asia and shot her a wink. Asia smiled at me.

ASIA

Andre came in and sat down. I looked back at him. "Hi."

"Yo." He said, his face calm. "You ok?" I asked. Andre nodded. "Yeah, I'm cool. You?"

"I'm wonderful." I answered, cheesing. "I'm eating lunch with Jae later. Is that ok?"

Andre clenched his teeth. He was holding back his frustration. "Yeah."

"Cool." I turned around. Mr. Davis came in and took attendance.

Asia ate lunch with us. When class was over, Makena and Asia went on without me.

Andre and I were the last ones in class. He waited for all the students to leave, stood at the door, and stalked me. I looked at him.

"Y'all females hate to listen." Andre said. "You need to leave me alone." I told him. "You were cool at first, but now. You're fucking insane, man.

Andre exhaled. "I'm cooling."

"Is something going on at home?" I asked. "You ain't acting normal at all."

"FUCK YOU!" He shouted. "You're the reason I'm like this." He blamed. "Asia is the reason I'm like this. You shouldn't be around her."

"YOU shouldn't be around her." I said. "You're confusing. Is she the reason or am I?"

"You both are!" He barked, moving towards me. I scoffed and avoided him, walking into the hall.

"Yo, come back here!" He shouted.

I walked towards the science lab. Andre chased me down. "This fucking bitch." He mumbled.

I hurried into the science lab. Andre came in. I stood behind a table, acting scared. "Bro, leave me alone." I said. "You don't have to do all this."

"You should've listened, man." He said, shoving me into the corner. "You can't have Asia."

"You can't tell me who I can or can't have."

He was mad controlling.

"Yes I can." Andre said. "I'm gonna beat yo ass and then I'ma out Solana when I'm done."

"You don't want to do that." A voice told him.

Andre looked back and released me...

Makena was there with her cell out, recording us, she was hiding in the lab all this time. If I were left alone, we knew he'd strike and he did.

"I have all this shit recorded." Makena told him. "Yo, come on, man." Andre said. "This is all a misunderstanding, delete that."

"Oh, it's a misunderstanding now, huh?" Makena asked, shoving the cell into her hoodie, she ran over to Andre and socked him across the cheek.

"Mak!" I shouted. That wasn't included in the scheme. Makena looked at me. Andre kicked her in the stomach.

Oh, hell nah.

I dashed over and struck Andre in the mouth.

Payback, bitch.

Andre retaliated and hit me. The three of us brawled in the lab, items broke, tables shifted, chairs raked.

It was chaos.

Andre was fit, that's for sure, but Makena and I were winning. Man, I haven't scuffled this hard since middle school when a lil' bitch harassed me for how I dressed.

A teacher heard the commotion and rushed in, seeing us. He broke the clash.

I felt an adrenaline rush and before I could think, blink, or swallow. We were hauled into the principal's office.
