~The next day~

"So, wait... lemme get this straight." Michelle said. "its a bet?"

"Yea," Jayla nodded. "He likes me, but id think i like him back. So he bet me $10,000 that i'd fall for him in 12 days."

"Man, i wish i could meet some sexy rich guy that likes ME!" Brittany laughs. "So, what chu gon' do?"

"I have no intention of falling for him, so i wont."

"I guess we gon' be shopping..." Nikki. (Nicole) said. The girls all laughed.

"Naw, I'm using it for college."

"That's smart!"

"Ik, right?" i said. I felt someone pull me away from my friends. I looked back and they were already gone.

Wtf?

I whipped around, only to find myself in the big, strong, arms of Roc.

"N****, you could just call me over you know."

He laughed and asked, "Ready to go?"

"Where?"

"Where ever I take you."

We went to Chipotle' for lunch. I'd never been to one, so he sorta made me go. I dont like for people to pay for me, that's why I wanna pay for my own college eduaction, instead of aunt Keisha paying.

But, he insisted on buying me lunch.

"Can I ask you something?" he asked, taking a bite of his food.

"Sure." I said.

"Why did you move in with Ray? He never told us..."

I was quiet for a second.

"Jay?  You okay?"

"Umm... Yea... Uh, its a little sensitive."

"Oh, I get it. You dont have to tell me." he said,

"I want to, though... My dad left me and my mom when I was little. And my mom recently d-... passed away." I said, eyes watering.

"I'm sorry you had to go through that... Any siblings?"  he said as he wiped away a trickling tear from my cheek.

"Naww..." I said, smiling. He is so sweet.

"Sometimes it feels like I'm alone, too. I mean, I have a mom and a sister, but my sister's in college across the country. My mom's never around... But, you've let me realize that I don't have it so bad and I should be grateful... Thanks." he said, eyes watering.

"You're welcome." I stared at him, waiting for the tears to drop, but they never did. He is so strong.

"But, you dont have it better, necessarily. I have Ray and the rest of them... I'm sorry for you, too."

We both smiled and he leaned forward. Closer, closer... Our lips crashed and it was like fireworks. His soft lips were so perfect, they tasted like honey.

We sat back again, cheesing. Then, I frowned.

"What's wrong?"

"We have to got back to school, now." I sighed.

"Well, we don't have to." he said, with a devious smile.

"Won't they know that we skipped?'

"What they gon' do about it? They can't call your momma." With anyone else, that may have been offensive. But, he just says it so sweet, you know that he means well.

"True... Leggo, then."

And then we went back to his house.
