Yesterday, I know Payton wasn't feeling right. The news she told me shocked me. That shit was crazy but today I was determined to make her smile. She was definitely gone smile today. I planned on taking her Dave Busters and make sure we enjoy ourselves. We were now at lunch and she wasn't talking at all not even smiling.

"Payton" I said and she looked at me. She had been spacing out all day. She hadn't paid attention at all today.

"Huh?" She looked at me and she looked so over it.

"You ok?" I asked her and she nodded sighing.

"I mean yea I'm good, just irritated and confused you know" she said talking with her hands. I nodded in agreement understanding what she saying.

"Lemme take you out?" I said licking my lips and she rolled her eyes hiding her blush.

"So you taking me on a date?" She asked and I shrugged tucking my lip.

"Call it what you want, I just wanna take you out" I told her and she smiled. I smiled back.

"There it go, I missed it" I said and she started laughing showing them dimples.

"I'll go." She said and just as I was about to speak Ti walked over to us.

"Hey August, Hey Payton" she waved and Payton sat back against the booth side poking her tongue against her jaw.

"Yo why is you over here?" Payton asked with a irritated look.

"Because this is a free world and I can do what I want" She fires back and Payton and I knew shit was about to get crazy.

"Free yo ass on somewhea' cuz you mad annoying for no fuckin' reason" she said and that accent came out. You could see it in her face.

"Payton calm down" I told her and she looked at me.

"Nawl dawg cuz she been on my tip since I got here. If he yo nigga he wouldn't be sitting here with me. Now fuck outta here" she said and just like that she walked away. The bell rung and it was time to go to fifth block.

"Payton you ok?" I asked her as we walked down the hallway together.

"Honestly." She stopped in the hallway biting her lip. I walked infront of her waiting for her to talk.

"If you carry drama ion wanna be round you, so either you fix herpes back there or stay away from me, cuz I'm telling you whoever step to me on some bullshit about you I'm murking shit, ion care who you is!" she said walking around me. I was speechless.

"Wait!, you saying you don't fuck with me nomore?" I asked grabbing her arm and she looked at me.

"No what I'm saying is, either you fix herpes or you stopped fucking with me!" She said talking my hand off her arm.

"So that's how we do it?" I asked her and she shrugged.

"Guess so" She said turning walking into the classroom.

"Wow bro!" I said walking into the classroom after I got myself together.

I was about to sit in my regular sit which was beside Payton but Jeremiah was in my seat. He was making her giggle and smile and I was real jealous. Ion know why but that shit wasn't sitting right with me at all. Pierre walked in the room and instantly walked over to them and I sat in the empty desk close to the door.

"Where August!" Pierre asked looking Jeremiah up and down.

"He over there" she pointed in my direction. He looked back at me and at the two.

"Who is this nigga?" He asked an Payton sigh.

"Jeremiah who you?" Jeremiah shot back. Pierre looked at him stupid.

"Her brother nigga, so move cause she ain't fennda be sitting beside you." He said and Payton didn't say nothing. She was to busy spacing out again.

"Aye pay imma call you later iight?" He said tapping her she nodded putting her head down on the desk.

"Pierre you so damn mean" she said as he sat beside her.

"I'm not I just don't trust no nigga around you other than August" he said and she smacked her teeth.

"Whatever, I'm going to sleep." She said turning her head the other way.

"You not gone do yo work?" Pierre asked her and she nodded her head on the desk.

"I did it already" she said as she snuggled her head more into her forearm.

*Payton P.O.V.*

School was over and I was sitting in the school parking lot waiting on Pierre. He decided to ride to school with me this morning. He claim he was tried of driving but he just got that car Sunday. Today is Tuesday, he ain't even been nowhere.

He walked out the school talking to August. I didn't mean to snap on August like that, it's just old girl is irritating as fuck and every time me and August chilling she always fucking with us. I try not to say nothing cause when I talk my shit, I can definitely back my shit up. I'm talking Mayweather.

"Payton why you not talking to my boy August?" Pierre asked as soon as he got in the car. Dropping my phone in my lap i ignored his question.

"Payton" he tapped my shoulder and I ignored it. I didn't even feel like talking nomore.

When he said that I felt some type of way. Although I've been hanging with the last past two weeks or whatever, I didn't want him to feel that I was ignoring him. I liked being around him and he made me smile through the hurt. I pulled up in my driveway and got out.

"I'm going to take a nap" I said as I walked in the house pierre walked behind me.

"HEY PAYTON" amarin yelled as I walked passed Pierre room.

"Hey" I replied dryly. She hopped up from Pierre bed and walked in my room behind me.

"What's wrong?" She asked closing my door and I shook my head nothing.

"Nun I'm just tired" I told her and she smacked her teeth carefully getting on my bed.

"Payton I have known you over 16 years. Something is wrong" she said and I sigh laying on my bed.

"August thinks I'm ignoring him" I told her and she smirked at me.

"Awww bestfriend you like him" she said and I smacked my teeth.

"I'm going to sleep" I told her she took a pillow hitting my back.

"You like him" she said and I shook my head no.

"Me and him just good friends, I think it's because I care about em" I said shrugging. It was really rare for me to say I care about somebody.

"Payton you sure you don't love him?" She asked and I shot my middle finger at her.

"Your hormones fucking with you." I told her and she smacked her teeth.

"No I'm saying cause you never confessed that you care for somebody." She said pointing her statement out.

"Amarin whats the big deal about this conversation again?" I asked her and turned her head sideways giving me that look.

"You like him" she said and I shook my head no.

"Wake me up when the food done" I said snuggling my head into the pillow.

"PIERRE BABE I MISSED YOU" amarin yelled as she walk out my room. I chuckled shaking my head going to sleep.
