Lakira's Pov-
The school year has been going by really fast. Halloween already passed. Thanksgiving shot right by. Christmas and New Years was as if it never happened. It actually already April, my birth month. Cheer is almost over and so is my high school life.

Joey: Babe you ready?
Lakira: Yeah. I'm coming.

Yes me and him are still together. We're still inseparable actually. There hasn't been a day we weren't together. I've been hanging out with him, Kara, and Aaron.

Dre and Tremcia are also still together and we still hang out. Only I'm not a crip anymore. I'm free to wear red and everything. They don't mind anything I do. I still have my fans or whatever you call them. Nobody has really minded my life changes.

I moved into my mom's house which is actually pretty close to Joey's. We have a better relationship. Especially because C-baby is now paralyzed. I'm not the reason though. He got hit by a car after recovering from the ass beating I gave him last year. It's sad but he got what was coming to him.

I checked myself in the mirror before leaving with Joey.

We still get stared at, but it doesn't bother me. He's with me because he cares about me so why would I be upset?

Joey: Babe. You good?
Lakira: Oh yeah I'm just sleepy. Not a lot of sleep last night
Joey: Mmmm I wonder why

He grabbed my hips and kissed me. We had sex last night, so I obviously didn't sleep a lot. I'm surprised that he's so up and peppy. I know he's just as exhausted as me.

Lakira: Fuck you
Joey: You did last night
Lakira: Oh my fuck
Joey: Okay okay I'll chill

Kara and Aaron walked up to us holding hands. We're that one group where everyone is dating I guess

Kara: Hey guy
Aaron: Hi Lakira. Hello daddy
Lakira: Oh shit so we were still on the phone with you last night
Aaron: I hung up around the first time you moaned. I wanted to eat my noodles without the free porn on my phone
Kara: Yeah he saw a bit too much
Lakira: Sorry dude
Joey: Our bad
Aaron: It's fine
Joey: So what are me gonna do?
Lakira: What do you mean?
Kara: For your birthday
Aaron: We have to do something
Lakira: Lets go out to eat
Aaron: What else?
Lakira: Swim and movie at Kara's house. How bout that?
Joey: Sounds fun
Kara: Yeah we should do it
Lakira: Okay then that's that.

The realization of me turning 18 hit. I wasn't sad about it, but it's surprising. My birthday is literally next week and I'm gonna officially be an adult.

The days went by fast until it was finally the night before my birthday. I bought a new outfit and made sure I did my hair beforehand and went to sleep carefully. Today I'm going to sleep a minor and waking up as an adult.
