 "Y'all got school, in 45 minutes, Get up, Breakfast is in the kitchen" I heard Ms. Santos yell. 

"Aight ma, we getting up" Harlem started whining. 

"Hurry Up, I need you to take Mally to school, I got called in early" She kissed Harlem's forhead, and walked out. 

"Ugh, it's too early for this" Harlem got up, and I turned on the tv. I turned it to the music channel, and grabbed my clothes. 

"I got the bathroom first" Lani grabbed her stuff, and ran upstairs. 

"This bitch" I walked into the kitchen, and grabbed the Frosted Flakes. I made my cereal, and walked back into the living room. 

 A while later, Mal came downstairs, with his Spiderman backpack. He had on a Red and Blue Spiderman tee, Khaki cargos, and his Red, White, and Blue Spi'Zikes. 

 "Lani said you could come up now, she's brushing her teeth" I nodded and patted his head. I walked upstairs, into Har's room, and into her bathroom, where Lani was just leaving.

"Morning sunshine" 

"morning Cece" I smiled and pushed her out. "Bitch" 

"Takes one to know one" I cut on the shower, and got in. 

 ~Alonte~

 "Lonte, Get Up" I groaned and sat up. My mom was standing in my doorway, holding Tay.

"Aight, and you can sit him on my bed" I got up, and turned on Clifford. My mom handed him his bottle, and I got dressed. I shower at night. I walked into my closet, and grabbed today's outfit. It consists of a Yellow and White Hollister Tee, Grey Levis, and my White Laney 5's. I grabbed my Yellow, Blue, and White Bulls Snapback, and Gold Chain. 

"I'll be making breakfast, and Tay's gonna have to be picked up early because I have to catch a shift at the Boutique" 

"Aight, what time?" 

"Umm 3:30" I nodded. My momma is a boss on everything. My dad walked out when I was one, when they were 16. My momma still went to college, now she own her own boutique. She walked downstairs, and I picked Tay up. 

"Aight fat man, lets get you dressed" I walked into my closet, and held up a matching outfit. As I was getting lil man dressed, Leilani popped back in my mind, but I shook it off.

 I pulled into my parking spot, and saw Quan smoking, with Zay on his phone. 

 "morning" We all dapped.

"Wassup?"

"Nothing, I need y'all to go to the trap immediately after school, my mom has to go to work early, so I gotta pick up Tay after school, I'll come by around 10-11" 

"Aight, but don't forget about that project" I threw my head back and sighed.

"Shit"

"Don't stress it L, lets get to class tho" I locked my doors, and we walked in the school. We got our stuff and walked to first period. The class I got with Leilani. I sat and the guys sat around me.

 ~Leilani~

 The girls and I walked into class, and first thing I saw was Alonte. Fuck that nigga. We sat down, and the teacher started.

 "So how's your projects going?" I asked pulling out my notebook.

"Great, Me and Quan got a good ass paragraph"
