School was going good. I was still having trouble with AP Chem. I'm failing already. I can't shake this shit.

"Please Mrs Quincy is there some type of extra credit." I was in her room after school before I headed to practice.

"Odell I'm sorry there is none. But you can study for this test tomorrow. If you at least get a B your grade will at least jump up to a D+ and if you get a A on your homework it will be a 73%."

I hate complicated teachers. I just wanted to know if there was.

"Thanks." I began walking out.

"Wait Odell. Listen to me. You are extremely smart. You'll get your grade up. I have faith in you."

The door opened and I saw Adrienne and Jordan come in.

"Jordan and AJ what brings my students in."

"I came for my sandwich" the teacher chuckled and I shook my head. This fool is always eating.

Jeremy walked in too. He dapped me and then started messing with Adrienne.

"Hey Miss Q. Can I get my test back" I watched as they interacted. Adrienne hadn't spoken to me since the dinner at her house. Maybe because of her brother.

"Uh...right here. Good Job Jeremy B+"

"HOW HILL" I snatched his paper.

"I studied instead of tongueing down my girlfriend. Oh yeah and AJ helped. Speaking of AJ what did you get Sticks"

"96"

HELP ME ADRIENNE PLEASE.

"Odell shouldn't you be asking Adrienne something or maybe even Jordan" he came back in with chips and a sandwich.

"I don't tutor its to much work." He started smacking.

"Adr" she cut me off with a no and Jordan and Jeremy started laughing.

She left with Jordan and Jeremy. Well she was on Jordan's back. I need this girls help and bad before mid quarter grades go out.

After practice got out I waited in my car. I even ignored my girlfriends request. Something I never do

It was around 7:00 when I saw her walking to the car. I got out and rushed to her.

"Adrienne please here me out. I CANT fail AP Chem. I can't. Please I'm literally begging you."

She rolled her eyes.

"Why should I. What happened yesterday at lunch when I walked past your squad with my band mates and Victor yelled "Adriennes pussy has cobwebs" and everyone laughed except Jeremy Kota and Kenzy. No because you think I'm a joke you aren't a nice person. You're a jackass.

She started putting her stuff in the car.

"Look I'm sorry. I'll pay you"

"I don't want your pity money nigga. Just leave me alone"

"Adrienne please I need this please"

She stared at me with what seemed to be eternity.

"Fine but not at my house or your house were going to my godmothers."
