**The next day.

I woke up to my phone ringing like crazy! I knew if it wasn't Mark it was Nicki. I answered it and sat up.

"Hello?"

"Um! What's up with you? You got in a fight and ain't tag me in? Where they do that at?!" she yelled.

"Your calling me at.. 6:00 in the damn morning. Jesus ain't even up yet! Where they do that at?" I said rolling my eyes.

"Mhm, but I know you better explain to me about you and Chase. I thought you liked Mark?"

"You thought I liked Mark because he's your cousin. And Chase I liked him low key, and he asked me to be his girl yesterday so I was like might as well."

"Mhm, well get that ass up, shower, get dressed and get ready to explain to me. And make sure you save ya cutest outfit for tonight."

"Um.. what's tonight?"

"A party, well there's one tonight and one tomorrow night."

"And your gonna go to both? Twice in a row? I see what they mean when they say the city never sleeps." I said chuckling. "Speaking of sleep I'm suspended so can I go back to sleep?" I said.

"What!? Why you get suspended? Know what? Tell me later, I'm high as hell and sleepy."

"Mama let you smoke in the house?" I asked shocked. She seemed laid back, but strict.

"Nah, she went out of town for a couple of days. Now bye!" she said hanging up. I flopped back down and thought about the party. I never been to one before beside birthday parties. Maybe I'll ask Chase if he wants to go.

I tried to go back to sleep but I couldn't. I made a mental note to pinch Nicki. I got up and went to my closet. I didn't own any dresses except like sun dresses. I guess I'll just throw something together. I sat at my mirror and looked at my hair. I guess I could throw a few curls here and there.

I don't even know if I could go to the party. I got suspended for a week so shit. My mama don't even know I got suspended.

I tried to tell the principal what happened afterwards, but because I 'over defended' myself, and his fractured ribs, it was only right. I swear I hate the school system.

After showering and doing my usual routine I put on some black skinny jeans, my red plaid shirt and my red Toms. I put my hair in a loose bun and tied a red bandanna around my hair. I looked at my phone and saw Chase calling me.

"Hello?"

"That's all I get is a hello? No good morning baby?" he asked laughing.

"I'm sorry, good my sexy baby!" I said smiling.

"That's better, now are you dressed ma?"

"Yeah, why? I'm suspended."

"I know, that means we can spend the day together, and then go to that party if you wanna go."

"Okay, well what time you coming to get me?" I asked biting my lip.

"I'm outside now. Come on girl." he said.

"Okay, but I gotta tell my mom." I said getting up.

"Ight ma, handle ya business." he said hanging up.

I got up and went into the kitchen hopping I didn't see my mom. Fail.

"Where you going?" she said sipping her coffee.

"I was gonna go out with a friend."

"I thought we were gonna spend the day together?"

"Um, maybe next time. Something came up. I'm sorry!" I yelled before closing the door. I walked down the hall and ran and tried to catch it.

"Wait wait wait!" I said yelling. A young guy stopped it and smiled at me. "Thanks."

"No problem ma." he said. I pressed 1 and stood in front of him, feeling him look me up and down. I looked down and coughed, putting my phone in my back pocket. His stop came up and I stepped to the side and let him off. He was actually cute. He winked at me and walked off. I blushed and smiled as the doors closed. My stop came and I got off walking out the building. I saw Chase leaning against his car and I walked over to him smiling.

"Hey." I said standing in front of him.

"Hey, so you cool with your moms?"

"Yeah we cool. We're we going?"

"On a lil trip." he said with a smirk. Oh lord.
