It's hard living in South Central, Los Angeles.
This story is about four kids living hard lives from gangs, drugs, and the struggle, but one of their lives change while the others stay the same
Merlin pov~ I was talking to my best friend outside, when she told me she was gonna be in Honor classes.
"Dang, so you gone leave me in regular classes" I joked.
"You'll still have Tionne and Shawn" She smirked.
"Yeah I guess, but I still won't be around you as much" I pointed out.
"You literally live right across the street Merlin" She laughed.
"Oh yeah" I laughed.

"I'll see you tomorrow" She smiled and went inside.
I walked outside and see a car speeding, my way already knowing what that mean.
A lot of crips stay on my street, so there's a lot of shooting at night. I dived on the ground cause bullets don't have names. The guns stop shooting and I stood up.
I answered the phone since my mom work all night.
"Hello"
"Are you okay?" Lisa asked
"Yeah, are you?" I also asked
"Yes, I should've asked my dad to walk you home"
"It's ok, but I'll see you tomorrow"
"Okay"
I sat on the couch and watched Tom & Jerry.
Lisa pov~ I was thinking about Merlin, because he's my crush. I'll be honest and won't deny that he's not really nice to everybody, but that's the way he was raise, he's actually very bad, but as long as I'm not on his bad side it's ok.
Next day
I walked into the Honors students building, it looked like a entirely different school.
"Lisa Turtle?" A teacher asked
"Yes"
"My name is Mrs. Bliss and I'm your 1st period teacher"
"Nice to meet you" I smiled.
I sat in a empty seat in front of a boy starring hard.
