2: on one condition

Mya
Schools out, and I finally ditched Xavier. He has been following me around all day, mainly because we have every class together. Ion know why, but we do. I wasn't going hoe. Just yet, I was gonna go to this concert at the park, my favorite artist is performing. His name is Ryder. He always wears a bandanna over his mouth and he has grey eyes, super hot. Ever since he came out, I've had a crush on him. I walked across the street to the park. Tons of people were already in line for tickets. Once I got mine, I made my way over to the stage. They were getting ready to start. I put my phone in my back pocket. "Are you guys ready" Ryder's voice came through the speakers. The air filled with claps and cheers. "Okay...let's get this thing started" he did like three backflips onto the stage and started rapping. I felt my legs get weak. "Woohoo go Ry go Ry" I cheered. "She stay up in my face. But I'm so tired of the disrespect, girl I know why you coming home late. It ain't no late shift, or a car lift, so tired of the cheering shit" he rapped. I felt the base boom.

When he finished everyone clapped. I had to use the bathroom so I went over to where the bathrooms were. But someone pushed me, right into Ryder's tent. I heard his voice and footsteps. I panicked and hid right under the table with his refreshments. The table cloth went to the floor, so he couldn't hear me. I covered my mouth and stayed still. "Yes mother, I'll be there soon, no need to send Alex and Pedro" my eyes widened. 'Xavier' I mouthed. I almost threw up in my mouth. "Ok I'm coming I'm coming" I heard his footsteps start to leave. Then, my phone buzzed in my back pocket. I almost cried. "Who's there" I heard Xavier ask. I slowly came out from under the table. "Oh shit, oh shit" he paced around the tent. "I'm so sor-" he cut me off. "It's fine, but I need you to go home and don't tell anyone" I smirked. "Okay, under one condition" I said.
"Ok anything, just name it" he said.

"I need you to take a picture with me so I can tell everyone I met you in person, and we're friends. Plus, I'm gonna need you to rap like that for the music month concert" I stated. "Um I can do everything, except that last thing" said Xavier. "Ok well just let me go on my way out and I'll tell everyone who you are" I said. He grabbed my arm, stopping me. "Ok...fine I'll do everything". I smirked, "great". I snapped my picture and posted it on Instagram, then walked out the tent.

Xavier
I stood there in shock, ion know what imma do now. It was already hard keeping this secret from my parents, and now its gonna be even harder. Considering, im gonna sound just like Ryder and everyone's gonna figure me out. But more or less, this is a school thing, and I have to participate.

I walked into the bedroom and seen all the girl sitting upright, staring at me. "How did you get a picture...with Ryder and Prince Xavier" Chloe another one of the girls asked. "Oh I just asked nicely" I smiled. "It couldn't have been that easy...its never that easy" Vanessa objected.

'That's what you think'

I changed into my pajamas and replaced for the rest of the night.

*Tap tap*

I was awoken by a small tap on the window. I jumped up and darted my eyes towards where I heard the sound. I nearly screamed when seeing Xavier there. I walked over to the window, grabbing my hoodie. I put it on and opened the window. "Why are you here" I whisper yelled. "I wanted to talk to you" he smiled. "You know we have all tomorrow for that X" I spat. A smirk appeared on his face. "What you looking like the joker for?" I giggled. "Just please come outside" he begged. I went to the firescape and walked over to Xavier. "So...what did you want to talk about?"
"You"
I sat there confused. "You seem to know a few things about me, so let me get to know you" said Xavier.

'So that's why he couldn't wait until tomorrow' I thought to myself. "Well ok" I agreed. "Ok so im Mya Violett and im 17. Basically no friends. I live in a home for girls and I like to sing. Actually, I'd like to say my singing voice is the only thing that calms me sometimes" I said.

Xavier
I watched her play with the light brown curls of her hair. "Is that why you want to participate in the music month concert" I asked. She nodded. "Plus there are gonna talent scouts from colleges" she added. "So that's why you want me to do my thing in the music month concert?"

"Yeah, really your my only hope to get recognized by a college and get a scholarship" she stated shyly. I smiled. I lifted her chin so her eyes my with mine. "And you do have one friend" I pecked her forehead and got up. I walked down the fire escape.

As soon as he left, my stomach filled with butterflies. Maybe I misjudged him, he might be alright.

I went inside and went back to sleep.
