(Josh's Point of View)

I watched as Arica walked away and over to a random car. Who she got a ride from? I ain't never seen that car. I'm over here thinking bout her when I got this fine female all on me. I heard Arica run inside and the car pulled off. I could see a tall nigga driving. Man who is this nigga? I gotta find out who that is.

(Arica's Point of View)

I got inside and locked the door. I know my stepdad isn't home and my mom is at work. I go up the stairs to my room and put my bag down. I grabbed some shorts, a shirt, and underwear. Went to the bathroom and ran a warm shower. When I tell you that shower was much needed. I stepped out dried off, and put my night clothes on. After putting my dirty clothes in the basket, I grabbed my phone and saw a text from August fine self.

August: Wassup ma?

Arica: Hey August just showered

August: Awe baby girl then got fresh for me

Arica: Boy no I got fresh for my pillows

August: Girl yo fine ass got clean for me I am yo pillows

I'm not sure what time I fell asleep but August had me blushing all night. He's so sweet and playful. It's sexy on him. It's like he doesn't have to try at all. Well lemme get ready for school. I already took a shower last night, so I got my clothes out and put my phone back on the charger. I got dressed in my leggings with a sleeveless black shirt and my adidas black and white hoodie. I put my school stuff and dance shoes in my matching bag. I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth, then put my hair into two braids making my baby hairs all cute. I finally put my shoes on grabbing my phone, charger, keys, and bag before leaving my room. I went down to the kitchen to make my sandwich for lunch and grab a quick breakfast. I cleaned my mess, grabbed some snacks, a juice, and two waters then left the house. As soon as I looked over at Josh's house I got upset. He left me knowing I didn't have a ride to school. I didn't know if I should but I did. I text August asking if he could pick me up for school this morning. He said he was on his way and within fifteen minutes he was here. I got in the car telling him good morning. He made me happy so fast with just his smile.

August: Morning ma, wassup?

Arica: Just needed a ride since my bestfriend left me this morning

August: Damn. Well August to the rescue ma

Arica: So are you attending my school?

August: Yea my cousin Chris attends your school I'm going too

Arica: That's cool I wonder if I know him

August: You might. He a lil head ahh light skin nigga

Arica: Oh Gosh. Well now I have a new friend I'll be sure to bug you August

August: Baby gurh you can bother me all day

Damn his accent so sexy he got me blushing hard as hell. I didn't even realize we were at the school already. We both got out and walked into the building. People were staring so hard it was making me uncomfortable. We walked into the office so August could get his schedule, He asked me to show him around since we were friends now. I checked his schedule and lucky enough we had all the same classes together. This year might just be awesome. We stopped at my locker before walking to our class and sitting next to each other.

August: So tell me about yourself ma

Arica: Not much to tell. I'm a dancer at the school. My grades are great and my only friends are you and my bestfriend Josh.

August: Hmm. You're too cute to only have two friends beautiful

Arica: Idk people just don't like me. I'm not popular and the popular assholes usually pick on me

August: Not while I'm around. I'll be your bodyguard in swaged out clothes luv

Arica: Thanks Aug (Hugs August)

Everyone started walking in class while Arica and August were talking. Josh and his friends walked in just when Arica hugged August. For some reason Josh got mad but he just set down in his seat looking out the window. The teacher walked in sitting his work on his desk. He got the class's attention announcing there was a new student. He asked August to introduce himself real quick. Hey I'm August and I'm from New Orleans. August set back down looking at Arica while she giggled. The girls were looking like they wanted to rip his clothes off. Most guys didn't really seem to care much, but others gave him death glares. Mr.Turk thanked August for introducing himself and began to let the class know what we would be working on today. He handed out packets and told us to work with a partner. August and I were working together and he kept playing with my hair making me blush. Idk how this work was getting done if he was gonna keep doing me this. When we finished our packets we just set there talking to each other and asking questions.

August: So what's your favorite color ma? Mine is blue

Arica: So is mine. Sweats or dressy?

August: Sweats. Home cooked meal or fast food?

Arica: Home cooked duh. Swimming or basketball?

August: Basketball. Dance or cheer?

Arica: Dance. Beyoncé or Rihanna?

August: Rihanna all the way ma. Michael or Prince?

Arica: That's not fair their equal Aug. I can't choose.

August: Ight ma. Chicken or fish?

Arica: Fish and chicken what chu mean (laughs)

August: True

Arica: Chill chick or popular chick?

August: Chill chick

Arica: Dog or cat?

August: Dog

Arica: Kids or no kids

August: Kids. What about you?

Arica: I love kids their so cute

Time went by so fast while we were talking and before I knew it, it was time to go. We turned in our packets to Mr.Turk then went to our next class.
