Heavenly Paradise: August Alsina (Urban) ON HOLD

23

Fall of 2016

"Paradise?" Walkin' inta' the girl's locker room, It appeared empty, but I know I saw her walk i n here after 3rd period. 

"It's me, August." 

"Back here." Her voice said faintly and I followed it ta' the very back of the room. 

"Hey, Mrs- why aren't ya' dressed?" I asked her as she sat down on the bench, with a towel wrapped around her . She seemed a little nervous and embarrased.

"...Brooklynn took my clothes." She said and I sighed, lightly shakin' my head. Brooklynn has had it out for Heavenly ever since the first day of high school started. I didn't understand why, especially since they were cousins. 

I closed the door behind me and sat my book bag down on the ground, unzippin' it. 

"Where the hell is Porsche?" I questioned, looking up at her and she shrugged. I rolled my eyes pullin' out an extra shirt and a pair of my own joggers fa' her to have. 

"Put this on." I walked over ta' her  and handed her my clothes as she stood up, grabbing'them from my hands.

"Thanks..."

 We stood there fa' a moment as we both looked at one another in silence. 

"What?"

"Are you gonna turn around?" 

"oh-my fault." I said chucklin' ta' myself. 

I spun around and placed my hand behind my back waitin' patiently fa' her ta' finish. After this, we're just gonna skip school, I don't care if we do get in trouble, I'm fed up with all this nonsense that she has been goin' through this week, especially with Brookylnn and her wanna be crew. Things have ta' change and that will start today. 

"Okay, I'm dressed." 

I spun around seein' her stuffin' her towel in the extra bag that I had with me. I couldn't help but ta' smile at her a little bit. She was pretty cute in my clothes, especially when her hair was sorta messy. 

"Why are you looking at me like that?" She laughed walkin' past me but I didn't say anything, I just bit my bottom lip and followed her.

"Let's go get some ice cream." I insisted, grabbin' onta' her hand and she slowed down her walk.

"But I have-"

"Class can wait. I'll take the blame, just come on." I stated tuggin' on her hand a little bit, tryin' ta' persuade her.

She huffed when she looked at me.  "I don't think that's goood idea." 

"And why not?" 

"You know Bryson doesn't like us together- being a lone at that." 

I smacked my lips. "Bryson isn't here right now and like I've already told him, I wouldn't hurt you. I like you." 

"Oh you like me now?" 

"And you hate me, the perfect friendship." 

"Ehhh, I don't know." She stated, and was about ta' make a turn down the hall ta' her classroom but I tugged at her hand, pullin' her back inta' me.  At this moment, I wanted to protect her from the other girls right now, so I wanted her ta' come with me, she didn't have a choice.

"Please?" 

She rolled her eyes and gave me a nonchalant look, but I didn't care. "So what will it be?" I swung our hands in sync.
