"Nae! Yo, Nae! Wait up!" My friend yelled and I turned to her with a hand on one of the straps of my bookbag, "Yeah?"

She stopped and took a breath before she almost grinned her ass off, "Chantel wanna holla' at you!" My eyes widened and she nodded her head to dismiss my doubt. "She really do! She at the subway."

A smile spread on my lips when I met her gaze, "You really serious? Chantel Jones?" She nods again and we dap each other up, "Yeah! Get you some!" She shouts and I head for where we just came from.

I walked into the fast food restaurant and immediately I spotted Chantel at a booth waiting for someone. Hopefully that someone being the one and only me.

I approached her and she smiled answering the question in my mind. She was definitely waiting on me. "Hey? What's up?" I said as I went to sit down but she got up instead. She hugged me as she spoke, "Hey! I was just gonna leave out this place. You wanna join?"

"Yeah," I laugh and follow her out. I hold the door open for her and she blushes, "Such a gentlewomen." I laugh again and we start down the street. "You know? I've seen you around on campus. I can't help but wanna say you are beautiful."

My eyebrows raise as I chuckle, "You sure that ain't my line? I was thinking the same thing about you," I rub my neck nervously and she blushed. "Thank you, but you are really pretty for a stud."

Pretty for a stud? What? Studs supposed to be ugly or something? I'm sorry if she meant that as a compliment but it didn't make no sense to me.

"Thanks?" I respond slowly before laughing it off, "I was thinkin' maybe we could swap numbers or-"

"CHANTEL!" A loud voice yelled from the back of us and she spun around to face a black jeep pulling up beside us.

She looked at me with wide eyes and grabbed me as she whispered quickly, "I changed my mind. Run. Now." I look at her confused and she yelled, "Now! Go!"

She shoved me and I barely budged, "Hell nah! I ain't leavin' you out hea? What's-"

A man I didn't see before grabbed my arm and pulled me towards him. Chantel looked at me with sympathy while I looked between her and this man confused, "Wh-What the fuck? Let go!"

"I'm sorry Monae!" Chantel yelled as she got into the backseat of the jeep and I was beyond lost and confused. "What? What the fuck? Let go!" I shout as I was pulled towards another car. I heard a gun click and my body froze when the metal touched my back, "Shut up bitch! Walk up! C'mon!" He demanded while he shoved me forward to get in the back.

I grit my teeth tightly and held my arms up, "A-Alright, man... just don't shoot alright?" He only spared me a glare as a response and he shoved me into the back. "This fo' givin' me a hard time, bitch!" My eyes widened and he struck me across the face with the pistol he had. Warm liquid rapidly gushed out of my nose and I was out like a light.
