Corey POV

On my way to fifth hour, and I'm damn near dragging my feet. I'm so ready to go home and just chill. I'm gon' have to tell Pops I can't do the workout tonight—my whole body aching like I been hit by a bus.

Mia claiming she mad at me now, acting like I did something wild. All 'cause I won't give her any. It's not even like I don't want to—I do. God knows I do. I just feel like we need to take our time.

We're fresh into this relationship, something we both were skeptical about even starting. I'm not trying to ruin what we had. That friendship meant something to me—still does. But of course, deep down, I wanna break her damn bones. She fine, smart, always in her little bag, and I'd be lying if I said the thoughts hadn't crossed my mind.

But I gotta protect this. Protect her. Us. She don't see that right now, but she will.

I spotted my boy up ahead—Justin, standing with his girl Sammy. Sammy also happens to be Mia's best friend. They started kicking it a while back, and now they inseparable.

"Hey, Corey," Sammy said, smiling.

"What's the deal?" I replied, dapping up Justin.

"My boy," Justin grinned.

I looked around. "Sammy, where Mia at?"

"She on her way now. We had a dance meeting during lunch," she said, swinging her backpack over her shoulder.

A second later, Mia finally walked up—with her little mad ass.

"So you just about to act like this?" I asked, stepping toward her.

"Act like what?"

"Like you don't see me standing right here."

"I said hey, y'all," she replied, emphasizing the word like I wasn't part of the group.

"Where the fuck my hug and kiss at then?"

"The same place I feel about what I want," she said with a smirk.
