A whole 2 weeks have passed and Kelly hasn't talked to me, walked me home, or answered my texts yet.

I stood up and looked out of my window and saw Kelly playing basketball in his driveway with sweat running off his face and body. I walked out of the door and walked to his driveway.

"Kelly", I said sitting on the trunk of his car. "What the fuck you want?" He asked. "I wanna know why you're mad. I honestly don't know", I said as a tear trickled down my face. "Cause I saw you with that nigga in the hallway", he said with anger.

"First of all, that's my fucking friend, and Second of all he's fucking gay!" I yelled.

He blushed and palmed his face. "Please forgive me", he said clasping his hands together. "Kelly these two weeks have been horrible. You can't be doing that", I said. "I'm so sorry Lonnie... I should've just asked you about it", he said grabbing me into a hug. "No, get off of me", I said pushing him. "I need time to forgive you for that", I said hopping off the car. "Please don't do this", Kelly said grabbing my wrist.

"Nah", I said with a tear full of anger and sadness. Kelly stood there staring and seeing how serious I was. "You didn't give me a chance, so you can wait", I said walking down the sidewalk back to my house.

I got into the house and plopped on my bed. From now on I'm like fuck anybody if they cross me over. I'm gradually learning that I gotta be tougher and not let folks get under my skin. I felt a huge sense of pride after turning Kelly down. I could see change in myself when I didn't break down crying like the old me would've done.

Kelly 🤔
So what are we now?

Me
Nothing.

Kelly 🤔
Come on Lon-Lon! I need you... but if you won't take me back I still wanna be yo friend. I still wanna mean sum to you.

Me
Well you gotta earn that. So until then, we nothing.

I know it's corny, but I feel like 21 savage. I feel so good that I said that without struggle or hesitation.
Man it feels good to be a gangsta.

Kelly's POV

I hit the wall and groaned. "Fuck this shit!" I yelled. I'm trying so hard to make it seem like it doesn't phase me but deep down I'm mad as hell that I'm really sad about this. I'm mad that I let it get to me. I'm mad that she won this little "argument" we had. I'm mad that she ain't as hurt as me. And I'm mad at myself for causing this whole thing.

----------------------------------------

I got ready for school and walked outside I stopped by Lonnie's House to see if she was done getting dressed. She was walking out the door on her phone. "What you doing?" She asked. "Walking with you", I said with my hands in my pocket. I had on a white tee with some black pants, a black jacket, black baseball cap, some gold round glasses and some black pumas. "You look nice", I said awkwardly. She ignored me and kept walking.

"If you wanna start over that's what we can do, but don't give me the silent treatment", I said grabbing her by her Nike jacket. She sighed. "Okay fine", she said obviously still pissed at me. "You look nice too, what's your name?" She asked sighing. "I'm Kelly, I seen you round' school and I think you kinda fly", I said. "Poetic justice?" She asked trying to hide her smile. I smiled and nodded my head. "You're good Kelly", she said. "But My dad doesn't let me talk to guys so, bye it was nice speaking with you but could you never talk to me again?" she said walking ahead of me.

"Lonnie stop", I said. "Can we at least be friends? I can't live meaning nothing to you..." I said. "Fine. Just friends", she said. "Lonnie, I'm real sorry", I said. "I forgive you, but we're still friends", Lonnie said with no heart. "Come on Lon! If I was with some girl in the hallway and she was all in my grill, you would've been acting all petty so don't play", I said getting irritated.

"I would've at least told you why I was mad", Lonnie said. "You know what, if you're gonna keep talking about that then we're nothing, not friends nor are we dating", Lonnie added. "Okay, okay I'm sorry", I said. "Stop being sorry and prove it", Lonnie said. "I'm trying. But you ain't letting me", I said. "You're just gonna have to earn a friendship from me then", Lonnie said walking ahead of me.

"Fine then!" I yelled.

---------------------------------------
1 month later....

I saw Lonnie with her friends in the hallway and I waved but she rolled her eyes and kept walking. Damn I really fucked up.... i ran to her locker and stood next to her. "You can't wave back?" I asked now standing in front of her locker. "Move", she said. "No", I said grabbing her shoulders.

"What do you want?" She asked. "For you to take me back and ease up like you were at first", I said. She looked into my eyes and looked down at the floor. I lifted her chin with my finger and poked my lips out to kiss her.

She reluctantly kissed me back and grabbed her backpack. "Do not kiss me again", she said rolling her eyes walking off. I ran after her but she kept walking. "Lonnie come on man", I said trying to get her to talk to me. She kept walking and ignoring me. "Kalani", I said firmly. "Kelly do not talk to me. I'm not ready for 'us' again", she said as her voice cracked.

I never have cried over a girl but when I heard how hurt and angry she was at me in her voice, I turned into a straight pussy. I bit my lip trying to hold my feelings back. I buried my face in my hands as I walked. "Shit", I said under my breath. My eyes watered but I wiped them dry.
