The bell rang, The first day was officially over! It wasn't as bad as I thought, But the year just started... I sighed as I slung my bag over my shoulder, I didn't really want to ride a bus, So I decided to walk home...
I'd just gotten out of the building when I heard someone call my name. I turned to see Ques jogging toward me. I waited and watched as he approached me.
" Aye"He smiled, Causing me to smile.
"What you 'bouta do?"He asked, Putting his arm over my shoulder. I shrugged. "I figured you'd say'at, You wanna chill wit' me?"He offered. I didn't have anything to do, Or anywhere to be...
"Sure"I accepted.

A few weeks later
From that day, Ques and I just got closer... We hang out a lot.
"I can shoot if I want to, I don't much" I stuck my tongue out at Aiden- Ques' bestfriend.
I went and sat down on the bleachers by Ques. I noticed he'd gathered his belongings.
"I'm 'bouta go get sum' t'eat, You hungry?"He asked.
"Yes!"I said excitedly.
"Okay, We'll get sum' t'eat, But I wanna do sum' first"-
"Okay, I'm hungry, Let's go!"I rushed him. I picked up his duffle bag and slung it over my shoulder. It wasn't heavy until we got to the parking lot.
"You need help?"He offered.
"No, I got it!"I smiled. I adjusted the strap to the bag, But it landed on the bruise that covered my shoulder... I minced sharply, Nearly throwing the bag. Ques looked at me curiously.
"You"-
"I'm fine"I said, Not wanting to get into it. I got into another fight with my Mom... I placed the bag in the back of the car before getting into the passenger seat. There was an awkward silence, I could tell he wanted to ask about it, But I'm not very outgoing with things like that.
"So, What are we going to do?"I asked, Breaking the silence.
"Oh, I gotta run sum' over t'the house" I knew him saying that... He was being vague.
He pulled up to a pretty house a few minutes later. He started to get out, Then noticed I wasn't moving...
"You comin'? "He asked, Grabbing a bag from the back.
"No, I'm not dressed"I said, Pointing down to my outfit.

"You look fine"He said. I sighed before getting out of the car. He took my hand as we approached the front door. He rang the doorbell.
"I'm gonna kill you"-I said, He chuckled.
The door opened, Revealing a woman holding a baby...
