"Alright class settle down there's only a few days before school gets out I know you all are excited but we still have work to do" ms.tuckers said as she passed out worksheets for us to do

"I hate this class" Ashanti said smacking her teeth writing her name on her paper making me laugh

"Girl you hate every class" I laughed as the classroom door opened and Kacey walked in

Yes I've been avoiding Kacey all day , after our kiss yesterday I didn't know what the fuck was going on and I didn't really wanna talk about it so hopefully he also didn't wanna talk about it

Putting my hand over my forehead I looked everywhere else except for him

"I can still see you b stop being weird we needa talk" he said catching me completely off guard

"Me weird? What you talking about" I laughed "whattt"

"Meet me at my locker after this class of you ain't there then ima be at yours" he spoke before going back to his work

"Bitch" I whispered to Ashanti as she took her AirPod our her ear looking at me

"What?" She asked looking around before pulling a piece of gum out of her pocket book sneakily "I don't need this whole damn classroom tryna eat all my damn gum the fuck"

Shaking my head I excused myself to the bathroom

"Where you going the bathroom the other way?" I heard kacey voice as I turned around

"To my locker"

"Come talk to me" he said pulling my arm towards him "why you run out like that last night huh?"

"I didn't know what else to do"

"You ain't have to leave , shit had a nigga thinking his breath was kicking" he said making me laugh

"Nah it wasn't that"

"We still friends ight stop making shit weird we just got stuck in the moment" he laughed it off as if it wasn't nothing

"But you mind keeping kaila company tonight while I go out with Jada?" He asked as I scrunched you my eyes brows confused

"Wait what?" I asked folding my arms

"Look b it was just a kiss we just friends right?" He asked as I sighed before nodding my head

"Yeah , I'll keep kaila company tonight" I spoke dryly before walking away

A bitch felt played but maybe I was overthinking things

Walking back to class I sat down in my seat and watched as Kacey came in smiling like shit was sweet

This nigga has got to be kidding me

"Damn did your cat die?" Shanti asked as I rolled my eyes

She know damn well I don't got no cat

The school day was over with and I was in the car with Kacey on the way to get kaila from school

The ride was silent and from the looks of it I was the one making shit uncomfortable

"So what you gonna do for Christmas break?" He asked as I shrugged my shoulders not really wanting to hold a conversation

"My parents are going up to Alabama for work " I said keeping it short

"What about you? You gonna be alone?" He asked
