Aaliyah P.O.V

“Alright class have a great summer and hopefully I’ll see you guys next year!” Mrs. Jones said just as the last bell rung. I jumped out my seat and grabbed my things heading out the class. I’m so happy! Summer is finally fucking here! I headed towards my locker to grab my books.

“Hey Aaliyah” Dominic said walking next to me. I smiled and pulled him into a hug. Dominic is the guy that helped me out that night. Just a couple weeks ago we became friends.

“What are your plans for tonight?” he asked and I shrugged. “Honestly, I don’t know… I’m just happy it’s the last day of school.” I said and he nodded. “I feel you, but I was wondering if you wanted to go to the movies? My treat?” he asked and I smiled.

“Yea, I’d love to. What time?”

“Uhh I don’t know yet. I’ll just text you whenever so be ready.” He said and I nodded.

“Mm ok, don’t be having me wait all damn night Dom.” I demanded calling him by his nickname. He chuckled and nodded his head.

“I promise I won’t.”

“Alright…” I said as he turned to walk down the hallway. I watched him walk out the building before turning to my locker. I pulled everything out my locker and stuffed it all in my bag. I closed my locker and looked across the hall, seeing Jamal and Aubrey talking. I rolled my eyes and began walking towards the door.

“AALIYAH!” someone yelled my name and I turned around seeing Jamal coming towards me. I rolled my eyes and watched him approach me. “Yes?”

“Uhh, you dropped this.” He said handing me my biology work book. I looked at it then looked up at him. “Umm thanks?” I said before walking off. I rushed out the school and started walking to my house. Ever since that day, I’ve been trying to avoid Jamal but he makes it hard. I honestly don’t give a shit how he feels.

When I made it home I saw my Cousin Brittany’s car outside. The fuck is she doing here? I asked myself. I shrugged and walked into the house. I heard people talking in the living room and I walked inside. I seen Brittany and my mom talking.

“Oh, hey daughter… how was school?” she asked. “Uhh, it was fine I guess.”

“Hey Aaliyah” Brittany said with a smile and I put a fake one on. I swear I hate this bitch but you know… she’s family.

“Hey Brittany.” I said as she gave me a hug. She squeezed me tight and rubbed my back. I pulled away awkwardly and gave her a weird look.

“So Brittany will be staying with us.” My mom mentioned and I glared at her. “What?” I asked

“I’m staying here for the summer.” Brittany spoke up and I looked at her. “For?”

“Aaliyah enough of the questions… show Brittany the guest room.” My mom said ushering us to the steps. I sighed and stomped up the steps walking towards the guest room. When Brittany made it to the room, I walked straight to my room slamming the door. 

You all may be wondering why I don’t like her. She’s fake and a fucking liar. Now I’m not gone get into where all this came from but I just don’t like her. I really wanna know why she’s starting here, outta all places. Brittany is only a year older than me but were nothing alike. Her and her mom lives right across town. I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket, it was a text from Dom.
