I Wanna Be- A Complicated Love Story

Chapter Seven

Jordan's Point of view.

These last few days have been, interesting. Ever since I walked into room 108 on that first day I've wanted to tell her how beautiful she was. Sharing a room with her, seeing her every day, seeing her smile. I remember one night I was up and I couldn't sleep, so I just laid there and listened to her sleep, it was so relaxing. The sound of her soft breathing was the only thing that put me to sleep. She is just; she's such an amazing girl. I just wish I understood her more. I usually have no problem with getting girls. I mean, I'm a basketball player, I'm a senior, I've been told I'm fine, girls usually are just all over me. Maybe that's why I am so interested in Aaliyah; she doesn't fall all over me. She makes it hard, she makes things complicated. I mean, she shower's with the door open whenever I'm in the room! She teases me to the fullest. All I can do is laugh; I think she tries to tease me purposely. I wish I knew how she felt about me. I almost asked her about it, but then she did some stupid shit and really pissed me off. I mean, she almost ruined everything. I even tried to switch rooms, but there's no room in any other dorms. So I was stuck with her, thinking back about it now, I'm glad there was no room. If I had a new roommate, I would miss her too much. I think I should try to start over, I'm gonna talk to her today. As soon as she comes back from the office. I hope she didn't get in too much trouble.

Aaliyah's Point of view

After the fight the school principal called my mom and told her everything. I knew once my mom called me that my ass was gonna be put on a chopping block. This is the first fight I've ever been in and the first time I ever got suspended. I mean, for it to be my first fight, I beat her ass. I chuckled to myself as I walked out of my room and to the living area. I sat in one of the comfy chairs and I began to sketch. That was one talent that no one really knew about, except my mom.

"Aye shawty whatcha doin sitting here by yo self?" My head shot up and I saw Shy posted up on the wall like a thug. I laughed so hard I was rolling on the floor. As I stood up my curls were everywhere making me look like a lion.

"Shy you scared the shit out of me, you sounded like a dude!" She giggled and sat down beside me. I swear this girl was not Asian she's black in my book, I thought to myself.

"Lemme find out you and A'Keisha fought." She said while rolling her neck like she was ratchet. I chuckled dryly and replied,

"Girl I tried not to put them paws on her but she was asking for it... Hey I have a question." I said quickly

"Yeah what's up?"

"So Jordan got pissed at me after he pulled my off Ronald and now he's ignoring me... Did they have a thing or something?" I questioned while doodling in my sketchbook. Shy looked startled and said,

"Yeah girl they dated for like three years then she got pregnant in sophomore year, she supposedly had a miscarriage but we all know that was a lie. She aborted his baby, that was before she was even a hoe. Her ass is ratchet now..." She babbled on talking about how much she changed and how much of a hoe she was.

A pang of jealousy hit me and I became sad. My whole demeanor changed and Shy noticed.

"Hey don't get sad, he's not dating her anymore-" I cut her off and said sadly,

"Yeah but he still has mad love for her. That's why he got so m-"

"WASSUP BITCH!" Shy and I both looked up startled and annoyed, but as soon as I saw Terrell I instantly brightened up.

"Hey you! This is my bestie Shy, Shy this is my main bitch Terrell," Shy stared at Terrell and then slapped his hand away and pulled him into a hug.

"Uh uh bitch I don't do hugs hunny I'm strictly fo the dick babe." He said playfully. Shy giggle and replied,

"I love him already!"

Since it was a Monday and apparently there's no school on Monday we decided to go to the mall. Terrell was pissy rich so of course he had a car. I quickly ran back to my room to change into something cuter. You never know when cute boys will be around. I changed into some leggings with crosses on them a pink sweater that said Cali on it my black boots with spikes on them and a black scully. I let Terrell straighten my hair so I just parted it down the middle and left it down throwing a beanie on. I didn't put any makeup on because I didn't need any. I took one last look in the mirror smiling then I grabbed my purse and hurried out. I already know I was gonna get a mouthful from Shy and Terrell.

"BITCH IT TOOK YO ASS LONG ENOUGH!"

Terrell linked shy and my arms and we skipped down the hallway. What is with this damn boy and skipping? I chuckled to myself but stopped as soon as we approached his car. I looked over at Shy; she looked just as shocked as I did. He looked over at us annoyed as he unlocked his car,

"We going to the mall or what because I needs to get my nails done y'all act like y'all ain't never seen a 2013 Ferrari f12 berlinetta." And with that said, he got into the car and started it. I whispered to Shy,

"His parents must be drug dealers." She nodded her head agreeing and opened the passenger door. We buckled up and he drove off like a bat out of hell. Lord please be with us because Terrell drives like a drunk blind man!

"The mani pedi was needed." I said as we sat down at the food court. Terrell's parents were both in the drug game so they were rich. Since Shy and I were both broke he let us get whatever we wanted, he didn't mind because it wasn't his money. I could tell he was spoiled rotten. I didn't get a lot because I didn't want to be greedy so I just bought my mom some earrings, a new nose ring, and a little black dress for the winter formal coming up. I was pulled out of my thoughts as I noticed Jordan walking with a Spanish chick. She was rubbing his arm and he was whispering in her ear something that made her giggle. He even grabbed her imaginary ass because she damn sure ain't had none! I became heated and didn't even realize that I crumpled up the napkin that was in my hand.

"Girl you okay?"

I looked at Shy and nodded my head trying to shake the jealousy. Soon after that someone approached our table,

"Well look who we have here? I think I owe you a ass whoopin after the shit you pulled in Mr. Davis's class," I looked up and instantly became enraged. Since when have I become so violent!? It's something about this chick that just irks my nerves. Damn what's gotten into me?
