* China's POV *

As I lay down on my bed flat on my back blasting every sad love song known to man-kind , of course the only person I can think about is Drew.

I'm laying here trying to figure out what's wrong.

What's wrong with me ?

Why am i wrapped around his finger like this?

How can I keep letting him play me like this time and time again ?

And What's wrong with him?

Why would he rather be with a girl that only wants him because he's weak enough to answer to her every call than to be with a girl that would treat him like he actually means something. I would make him feel wanted. I would always care for him and put his needs before mine. I know i'm not the best looking in the bunch, but i still deserve better than this.

While i'm laying around listening to music, i look at my clock and i realize it's almost time for me to go to the dance studio. I work at the front desk and clean the studio after each class so in return for my hard work the boss lets me take free weekend classes for whatever class I want. I choose to do hip- hop and jazz classes every weekend.

I get in the car and drive off to the studio. It's right around the corner so i decided to go to the store to pick up some snacks.

I got some Doritos , chewing gum, and two bottles of Powerade . As I'm walking to the cashier line , I see Drew and his friend with a cart full of snacks and drinks in the line already.

" Wow this can't be happening right now " , I say to myself quietly.

I start speed walking past him before he sees me then i turn to the electronic section in the store.Since I was there,  I started looking for some cds and speaker systems the choreographers at the studio can use. Then I feel a soft, warm hug from behind me and i get scared because I don't know who it is. I turn around and roll my eyes to see it's Drew.

"Looks like you're not happy to see me babe" , he says in a deep tone.

" Why should i be happy to see you. I don't want you no where near me. I don't even know why i'm sitting here talking to you right now ", i turn around dramatically and he pulls me right back in . He held on to me tightly.

" I don't know why you're acting like this China. " he looked at me up and down licking his lips.  I think you're a real cool girl. You're cute and you're a real sweetheart. "

I put my head down and bit my lip from trying to hold back my anger. I let out a sigh and said,

"Look Drew I have somewhere to be." He was still holding me and he wouldn't let go. He looked and said ,

" Okay . You know you can't leave me here without a kiss ", his hands slowly moved down my back and he began to rub my behind. I wanted to tell him stop but it felt too nice. He leaned in for a kiss and now here we are in the store having a make out session. Those lips of his are just heavenly!  Just as juicy and plump as they wanna be.

"Hey Drew ...

His friend Zack paused as he saw us kissing " Hey we gotta go bro" Drew left without saying a word and i went to the cashier line to pay for my stuff.

I got to the dance studio and nobody was having classes yet , so i plugged up the speakers to my iPad and i started stretching  to the music.  Then "Are you that Somebody " by Aaliyah came on and i started freestyling and singing to the beat. While I was in the zone i heard a loud voice cheering me on...

" ay ay ay you betta work Ms. China "

I laughed and ran to hug my friend Rashad.  He's known me since i was in the eighth grade and he used to come to the school to work with our dance team. Since then I help him teach a hip hop class every weekend.  He is one of the best dancers i know so it feels good to hear him cheer for me. He's one of the most underrated dancers in the city though but that doesn't stop his grind.

" Hi my Shad , how long were you standing there"

"Not that long . I just got here a couple minutes ago. Look at you doing your thing and looking hella sexy doing it."

Rashad always tells me that if he wasn't gay i'd be his girl for sure. He was 6'2 and as skinny as a pole but he was quite handsome.

We talked for a while and started choreographing a dance to post on YouTube later . We took a break and fell on the floor trying to catch our breath

" Girl I'm tired , i really gotta stop smoking all that weed "

" I told you that a long time ago boy"

" You know it's hard giving up that good gas , but enough about me how's everything going with you and um..what's his name Drake, Dre' ..."

I sighed and rolled my eyes

" You mean Drew"

He could tell something was wrong with me . He just came to me and put his arm around my shoulder.

" Now i'm not gonna tell you all the reasons that loving this boy is crazy and how you need to fall all the way back but i will tell you this, China you have a lot going for yourself . Your dancing and singing can take you so far if you kept your eyes on the prize. You need to be with someone that understands that and wants to be on the same level with you. You're beautiful and you have such a sweet spirit. If that boy can't see that it's his loss. "

I just love Rashad  . He's 20 so he's like the big brother i always needed .  I just layed on his chest and people finally started coming in for class , so we got them stretched out and got the class started.
