Anticipation

it's nothing

"That tattoo doesn't itch or nothing ? " , KaBrina asked Kiyanna as they sat on top of a table in the commons area outside . " It itches , but Troy bought me some A&D Ointment . It's starting to peel " , Kiyanna looked down at newly decorated right foot .

 " What your moms say ? "

"That her name better be written in one of the stars " , she rolled her eyes . KaBrina laughed as she imagined Kiyanna's mom talking about her tattoo .

 " So how was your ride last night with Mister Neverson " , Kiyanna nudged KaBrina . She had told Kiyanna all about the slight crush she had on Trey but nothing more . She planned to keep it that way -It would be just a crush to Kiyanna .

She shrugged " It was good " , she didn't even want to mention them going out to eat . " Just good ? ", Kiyanna probed in the mix , she had a feeling it was something more , but KaBrina held her ground . " Yeah "

" I swear he likes you or at least think you are cute . You said he is always around . "

"He isn't always around because of me . He is like a part of the family ." , KaBrina shrugged looking around to see who else decided to take advantage of the 73 degree weather that Texas had sprung upon its citizens . Looking at the door once more her eyes bulged at the sight "Damn " , She whispered .

"What" , Kiyanna looked up in the direction her friend was " Who you lookin at ? "

"Him " , KaBrina nodded

"I know you ain't talking about Rocky ugly ass " , Kiyanna scrunched up her face in disgust . "Ugly?! Where ? He looks like something I've seen in one of my dreams . . . I know he doesn't have gold grills . "

" Yes , and it's ugly . He ugly and he got the friends to match . " , Kiyanna waved her hand at her friend " And apparently he got the bitch to match too . Ain't that jessica ? " , she added once she saw one of Shan's flunkies all in Rocky's face .

"Yeah , " , KaBrina rolled her eyes taking a loss in her eyes . " If you interested in that ugly mess . He has your creative writing class . "

" No he doesn't " , KaBrina shook her head . She knew everybody in her writing class seeing it was only 10 people .

 " Yes he does honey . "

" How do you know ? "

" He got his schedule changed today while I was in the office sorting out papers. He has creative writing 3rd period on A days . Just like you " , Kiyanna pointed at KaBrina's nose teasingly . " You're so nosey "

" So " , Kiy shrugged . KaBrina was still looking at Rocky from a far . He turned his head catching her in her staring act and flashed her a blinding grin she quickly turned towards Kiy .

The bell rang letting everybody know it was time to start another day of classes . " I'll see you at lunch . "

The day was dragging by to KaBrina . She had stared at the clock all through first and second period. Now that it was 3 minutes until the bell rang for third period she wished it was the end of the day . She didn't feel good at all and was slightly aggravated with everything around her . Even Troy had irritated her in their first period geometry class . When the bell rang she got up slowly putting her book bag over her shoulder heading downstairs to the ground level for creative writing class .

"Hey Mr. Johnston " , She greeted her instructed before walking to the back to take her seat " Hello Greena " , she rolled her eyes playfully at her teacher calling her by her childhood nickname . It had spread like wildfire once her and Qualeek started interacting in school since that's the only thing he called her .
