Late January 2015

Artemis

"What you doing, mi amor?" Prince asked as we chilled on the plane to New York.

"On Instagram." I said as I scrolled on my laptop.

"Go to sleep. You're the only one awake." Prince whispered.

"I can't sleep. You know that." I said as I scrolled through my feed. "What's this?"

It was a flyer for a fashion show at Karr. It was for February twentieth at the school auditorium. I looked through the comments and it looked like three fashion lines and four performers dropped out.

"Look at this." I shook Prince awake softly.

"Hmm?" He muttered.

"Look." I turned his to my computer screen. "This fashion show at Karr, do you think we'll be able to go and be in it?"

"I don't know, Artemis. We have to ask Keisha, Walter, and Kenneth." Prince said and went back to sleep.

"Forget asking them." I muttered as I started typing a comment to Donte' Edwards, the one who posted the flyer.

[Hi! I'm Artemis Williams, or Princess, of Unique Royalty. I was recently at Karr as a student and I see you have thus fashion show. I also see that you have three fashion lines and four performers out. Unique Royalty, Mindless Behavior, Issa, and Diggy would be happy to perform. IIwice Couture, OSTRICH and Royalty would be happy to fill in for your designers. Just DM me when you have thought this over.]

I smirked as I sent the comment.

A few hours later when the plane landed in New York and were in a hotel, I got a Direct Message on Instagram.

[@_PrincesPrincess the Edna Karr Student Government and I would love to have each and everyone one of you for our fashion show. We will need samples or pictures of each of the clothing lines you mentioned in order for us to decided what's appropriate or not]

[Of course. I'll tell everyone on your decision. Thank you.]

"Why are you smiling like that?" Isis asked as she walked into my hotel room and laid down on the bed.

"I just booked us a place in New Orleans next month." I said. "Us, MB, Issa, and Diggy."

"Does Keisha, Kenneth, Walter, Issa, Diggy, or the boys know of this?" Isis asked.

"They will in a few minutes." I said as I texted Walter, Keisha, Kenneth, the boys, Juno, Brittany, and Jari. They all came into my room and found somewhere to sit or stand. I called Diggy and Issa on FaceTime, waiting until they answered to start.

"Okay, so before you want to call me stupid, or unrational, or an idiot, think of this. I did this for children in need of our help. Children who needed us to sponser them in order to help build themselves up." I started.

"What did you do, Artemis?" Keisha asked.

"I just volunteered Diggy, Issa, MB, and UR to perform for a fashion show and have Royalty, II Couture, and OSTRICH fashion lines be in the same fashion show at Karr on February twentieth." I smiled sweetly.

"Man, you serious?" Issa asked. "What if I had something booked on the twentieth, man? You can't just promise a nigga gonna be somewhere without questioning me first, man."

"I'm sorry, Issa. Diggy. Boys, but this is my school. I couldn't just let them struggle like that. I had to help them. Plus you can gain so much publicity for this." I said.
