Mellow and I walked down Pennsylvania street looking for his lost dog. It was Saturday, so I wasn't that much worried about the homework. Mellow on the other hand couldn't wait to get back home and finish it for tonight's party. Issa'Rae was throwing one and for some reason we always went to check it out. Last year she had a back to school pool party, and well let's just say there were some strong emotional people there.

As we rounded the corner we saw the dog eating on old bones. Mellow had a Labrador retriever. Which scared me a little. The dog looked up and seen us. Before we knew it he took off. Mellow chased after him. I followed right behind him. The dog turned so many corners that it almost made me dizzy. We stopped in an alley way.

    " Rocky... here Rocky boy," Mellow made a high pitched whistle sound.

   " Maybe we should check a little bit further down," I suggest.

   As we make our way further back the dog zips pass us. I turn and bolt for it. Once out of the alley I bump into something extremely solid. As my vision repairs itself I look up to see Ben standing over me. I gasp like the stupid teenager I am. He extends his hand out to me.

" I'm so sorry, I didn't know you came in this neighborhood," he chuckled.

" I don't. I was just helping a friend look for something," I said taking his hand.
While I stood to my feet a rubbed my head. Running into him was like running into a brick wall. Mellow came out of nowhere and got close up on Ben.

" You trying to hurt my friend bro," he said aggressively. His chest puffed.

" Mellow it's ok. I wasn't paying attention to where I was going."

" Yea, man I didn't see her. It's like she came out of nowhere."

  Mellow doesn't say anything he just looks at Ben for a split second, then chases after his dog.

  " Well, I guess that's my cue to leave," I awkwardly say.

  " Wait ,I wanted to ask you if you were going to Issa's party."

  " Yea me and my friends will most definitely be there."

" Ok, good I'd love to see you there."

There he goes again. Flashing that stupid smile. Why can't I just hate him right along with Issa. He doesn't get how much I want to hurt him, for just being him! I walk ahead just to get my eyes off of his smile. Even though I don't like Issa, I would never take another girl's guy.

" Well, I'll be there. Just gotta catch the dog, you know!"

With that I took off. Being with him any longer would have caused me to blow a gasket. I didn't really know where to run, so I just ended up going home. Mellow really didn't need me to find his dog.

I flopped down on my bed. I laid back taking a deep breath. I didn't really understand anything that happened. Like why Ben would like someone like Issa. Can't put my finger on it. But it ate at me until my phone buzzed. I picked it up and answered it.

  " Hello?"

  " Hey it's Myah. I wanted to know if you needed a ride."

  " Yea, I actually do. Just give me twenty minutes."

    I hung up the phone. I chucked it on the bed. I started to go through my closet. I didn't have much in there. Just five pair of jeans and two plaid shirts. Two blue and red fitted shirts and one flower printed shirt. I took out the red plaid shirt and sat it on my bed. I grabbed a pair of blue jeans and put them on my chair, near the iron. My desk was pretty cluttered from all the new text books.
