Weeks after, me and Noah started talking. And as you probably predicted, I started liking him. He doesn't know though. But anyway, it was after school and Noah and I were sitting outside waiting for the bus. My head was resting on the table.
"You good T? You been hella quiet."
"Ion feel good." I whined.
"You know what is good though?"
He had a kool aid smile on his face.
"What?"
"My birthday tomorrow."
He's a Virgo. Noted.
"Happy early birthday." I say weakly.
"What medicine you need Ty? I'll buy it for you, cause ion like seeing you feel bad." he said, leaning close to me.
I felt myself blushing.
"I'm okay."
"You sure?"
He started playing with my hair.
"Mhm."
"Okay."
He leaned down and pecked my lips, making my heart flutter a little. That was the first time he ever did that.
"Why'd you do that?" I mumbled, bashfully.
"I always wanted to, so I just did it."

At home, I sat on the couch. Smiling. Barry walked in and stared at me like I had eight eyes on my face.
"What nigga?"
"What you smiling for?"
"Why would I tell you? We don't even like each other."
"Yeah, but we can still talk. I mean, you are my sis still."
"Look, nothing happened. Can't a nigga just be happy to be alive?"
Barry flipped me off and walked upstairs. Soon after, Hendrix and Jaylen walked in with Ki.
"I'm finna go on a walk. You tryna come Ty?" Hendrix asked.
I shook my head.
"Nah, you coming."'
He threw me over his shoulder and carried me outside. Once outside he put his arm around me so I couldn't run.
"Why you making me go?" I asked with an attitude.
"Cause I wanna talk to you about this Noah dude."
"Oh lord."
