Yesterday was my first day. It was okay. Today dressed as a girl I put on a red dress flats and a cardigan sweater. I left my hair out curly and I put my nose ring in. I thought I looked really cute but I don't know just then a honk was outside. I quickly put eyeliner on and a little bit of clear lip gloss I took one final look in the mirror and ran outside. I got in the van and said hi to Sandy
" we don't have to go pick up the other girl so we'll be driving right to school" she says.
I nod my head okay. We start driving to the school and once we get there I open up the doors and all eyes are on me. Keep hearing Whispering as I walk through the Halls and everyone saying who's that I just keep walking to the lunchroom or cafeteria. I grab some cereal in a milk carton and a spoon and go sit down at my usual spot just like a kookie comes and sits next to me.
" so I heard that you talk to Harry yesterday in art class. That's my bestfriend you know maybe I can introduce you to him?"She offers
"No okay you don't have to do that.... "I say
She nods
"All the boys kept staring at you when you walked in LOL they all thought you were pretty cute well you are cute"She continues on.
Just then the bell rings and I think Saved by the Bell
Skips To Science Class Right Before Lunch
All hey all I've been hearing is who's that she's very pretty I want to get with her that is starting to get really annoying but I just ignore it right now I'm in science class I'm not really paying attention but the teacher is talking about how we are going to be studying physical science and doing physical science like making landscapes or scientific hypothesis and all that good stuff. When the bell rings it's time for lunch. Note the sarcasm after lunch I walk through gym again
"Harry there goes your girl there goes your girl she's right there"somebody says
" that's not her that's not her she dresses like a boy she's a dyke trust me I know I talked to her yesterday" he sounded really annoyed when he said that.
" just look"another boy says.
I turn around to see all the boys in the gym class staring at me except Harry. Then Harry looks at me and I swear his jaw dropped
" who's that? " I hear him ask
" that's the girl from yesterday"someone else says
I keep walking to my class and I hear Harry say " I gotta have her"
one boy says before I am out of ear shot of listening "You can't get her! "
I finish all my work and go play dodgeball with the boys all of a sudden whack a ball hit me in the face I fall to the ground but I don't cry I hold my face and get up and go sit on the bench while laughing. Everyone asks if I'm okay and I just nod my head. I could tell Harry kept trying to get out so that he could come talk to me and it worked.
We talked about stupid things. I felt a connection with him. Then the bell ringed.
I walked back to my class to get my credit sheet but Harry stopped me by the door.
" can I be Bae until I cuff you? "He asks
" sure you can"I say
I can see the excitement in his face. We walked to art class together and sat down. We talked about every little thing that you can talk about. We were laughing a lot then the teacher told us to calm down of course I got an attitude. I started to think these teachers really going see how I got here I I'm not doing anything wrong so why do I have to call and down its not like I'm jumping all over.
" so how old are you? "Her asks.
" how old are you? "I ask the same question
" I'm 17 and you"he says
" im 15 but to turn 16"I lied
I know I just lied but I really like this boy. Really funny sweet and has a big heart. Just then the bell rings I get up and go to my dismissal room which is the gym. We walk hand in hand and everyone staring at us then some girl comes up to us and starts bugging on Harry so I butted in.
''Umm excuse me can you not bring that drama over here because I don't like drama so take that drama somewhere else or you can shove it up your ass thank you very much bye bye have a good day"I said annoyed.
Everyone was looking at me including Harry
" what did I say something wrong I just don't like drama and she was bringing a whole bunch of drama over here so I had to tell her to go somewhere else"I say
" that was my ex girlfriend she's just mad I broke up with her I don't like her anymore she is no good she talks to everyone including my bros if you know what I mean"he say
I just nod
" Arianna your bus is here" a teacher calls me.
" bye Harry I'll see you tomorrow text me on Facebook my facebook name is OG Bobby Ari" I tell him.
He nods and i get on my bus.Today was a pretty good day but i cant tell my mom i met a boy i like.
On the way home i kept thinking about Harry. He's so cute. Why would he like someone like me?? I ask my self repeatedly just then someone interrupted my thoughts.
"Your home Arianna. "Sandy says to me.
I get out the van or bus whatever you want to call it.
"Hey Ari"
I turn around and see Saquan.I run over there and give him a bear crushing hug.
"Can't...... Breathe... ''He chokes out.
I immediately let go
"Sorry lil brother. SO YOU CANT TEXT ANYONE BACK ON FACEBOOK. I SHOULD SLAP THE SHIT OUT OF YOU RIGHT NOW. "I yelled.
By now the whole neighborhood was looking at us. He looked hella scared.
"I'm sorry. I don't have a phone anymore so I can't get on Facebook."he said.
"Whatever I'm just glad you came over before I had to go search for your ass lil boy"I say calmly
We go inside my house and that's when all he'll breaks loose.
"WHY IS HE HERE! "I yell out
"Arianna calm down okay he's here because he had to.... Ummmm...... "I cut her off
"You just gunna lie to me. I'm leaving. I'll be back in one hour"I say walking right back out the door
See my moms boyfriend is the one person I hate with passion. He can suck monkey balls for all I care. Me and saquan walk down to the seventh street park and I sit on one of the swings. I sit there in silence for a while.
"Why are you so mad sis? "Saquan asks me
I had to think for a minute. Why am I so mad. It's not my life it's hers. She's an adult she can do whatever she wants but she still is my mother and I don't like seeing her cry over a dumb ass nigga.
"I hate seeing her cry over a nigga that sits around and cheats on her and lies to her. Like he is so stupid but she lets him back in every time she say she not gunna but he always finds his way back in that damn house. UGGGGGG" I say in frustration.
"Come on. I know what will cheer you up." He said pulling on my arm
I looked at him confused and I hesitated because usually the shit he does is stupid as hell but right no I trust him for some reason. We walk back down the street towards my house but stop at the baseball field. Oh god. I know what hes about to do.
"Ready?" He asks me.
I nodded my head yes as I climbed up the dugout and climbed on top with Saqaun right behind me. I sit down on top and start throwing the rocks we always put up there. I throw one of them to the half way point of the field. By then my anger and frustration was let out.
