Junior year is like the calm before the storm, everyone is plotting and planning on what they want to study in college, everyone asks me for their thoughts and also asks me what I am studying because to them I have it all together, the president of my class & I haven't even thought of what i want to do with my life.

Jazzy is on the right track to becoming a rapper, she is still going to study at Full Sail University and study Music Business, because she refuses to get into one of those soul-selling contracts, and I honestly think she is smart for doing it that way.

Zane never really mentioned college, but I know he is one hell of a DJ and could do something major touring around the world, booking clubs and such, Although I remember him saying something about producing.... but what about me?

....

Zane greeted me before lunch, he was smiling. "You should hear this beat I did for Jazzy, she is going to snap on this track." 

"Even if it was bad, I am rocking with her until the wheels fall off." 

"You are a good friend." 

"How are you though?" he asked.

I sighed. "Ok for the most part, I think I would probably fall apart if it wasn't for you and Willa, she is really my moms backbone." 

"They are ride or dies, thats a fact." Zane said.

"And besides, I got to meet you and here we are." 

Zane bit on his bottom lip, and he pulled me closer, "Zane in school?" I laughed.

He smacked my butt. " I don't give a fuck" 

"Take that fag shit somewhere else."

Lincoln Harris said walking with his friends, Zane raised his eyebrow... "What you say?" Zane asked.

Lincoln turned around, glanced at his friends and then towards me and Zane.

"Take that FAGGOT shit somewhere else" 

Zane charged, taking down Lincoln, he's a senior and really worshiped at this school.

Zane was on top of Lincoln, punching him over and over.

"ZANE STOP!" I yelled, by this time the hallways were filled with students, Principal Smith was grabbing Zane while another teacher grabbed Lincoln.

.......

"I know my actions were wrong, but you cant have students exercising their popularity because they won you a few championships, he called me and Rowan degrading names, and I put him in his place." Zane said.

The principal was sitting in his chair, hands folded as he seemed to be thinking.

"I'm sorry." he said. Principal Smith wiped a tear from his eyes.

"This hits home, my younger brother was gay and the way Lincoln acted was like the guy my brother was dating, in person he teased, humiliated and even beat my brother... I did nothing to stop it from happening and to this day i live with regret knowing I could have prevented my brother from killing himself." Principal Smith said.

"Zane, I commend you for standing up for you and Rowan... But you have to help decorate for the Christmas dance." 

Zane looked at me and smiled. "Looks like you are stuck with me, because of course I am on that committee ." I said. 

"Sounds like my kind of party." Zane said.

"You kids be safe and have fun." Principal Smith said.

.....

When I came home, I was rushed by both Riley and Raven.

"Ro Ro, we hungry and mommy won't open her door" Riley said.

"What? Give me a second." I said, placing both of them on the couch.

I knocked on her door, she didn't answer so I got a head start and broke the door down, my mom was in the middle of the floor, crying and just sitting in a circle.

"Wasn't I enough?" she asked.

"You are more than enough, you are everything and more... me, Riley and Raven love you mom and know you are not alone, we will get through this... together." 

My mom let out a sigh, and she leaned her head on my shoulder "How did I get so blessed with an amazing son." 

"Well, I think I'm the lucky one." 

"But let me go feed my sisters." I added.

........

Jazzy and Zane were in the zone working on this music in the production room at the high school, and of course because Zane doesn't give a fuck... he lights a blunt to smoke.

"Smoking is the key to my creativity." he said.

"Seriously, Zane you need to take up music production at Full Sail." Jazzy said.

"Really, thats where your going... I never really thought about it." 

"Your joking, you are a dope ass DJ and this producing thing comes naturally to you." she said.

"Shit is scary thinking about college, and our future." 

"I am focused and willing to do what I need to do." 

Zane nodded as he and Jazzy inhaled a blunt. "I just wanna retire my dad, and put my little brother through college without any stress and just live." 

"You have so much to offer Jazzy, the industry will be better with you in it." Zane smiled at Jazzy.

"You know, Rowan is the luckiest, someone to motivate him and love him at the same time." Jazzy said.

Everything stopped moving, Zane and Jazzy were caught in a moment, and then... they kissed.

Jazzy stood up and looked as if she wanted to panic.

"Why did that just happen." she yelled.

Zane grabbed his neck and sighed. "SHIT." 

"Rowan would be crushed." she said.

"He's already dealing with enough." Zane said.

......

Standing at the doorway with the video rolling but still managing to stay clear, Eli hit stop on recording. 

"Oh, Zane West will learn to fuck me and leave me." he said.
