East To West

Chapter 1

August

When I sat on my bed, I clenched my locket in my hand. The cold metal soothed my throbbing palms. I'm being bullied if you didn't know. By Amaji and her group of beautifuly dressed followers. They were also known as The cheerleaders. They were the richest girls in the school, all because their parents invented toaster strudel and conditioner. I can not keep living like this. They pushed me down a flight of cement stairs! I scraped my arms up and I lost a couple of skin cells on my fingers. Can this Shit get any worse?

It was 8:00pm and I could not think of anything to do. I'm sure not about to go to sleep. I guess I could go for a run. I threw on some sweat pants and headed out the door with what I had on. As soon as the hot L.A. air hit my face I regretted leaving my room.

I had jogged around my neighborhood and frankly, I'm very tired of it. Its so boring. Maybe if I went somewhere is else I could have some kind of enjoyment. So I jogged past my favorite donuts place, Randy's, and into Inglewood. I went through there and kept running.

By 9:15 I was all the way on the west side. Truthfully I was scared as fuck. See the East Side and the West Side does not get along. In fact we have the biggest rivalry in L.A. If you were caught in enemy territory you got your ass tossed. I dont know how to get out of here.

I was bored as hell at my house. It ain't nothing to do.

Me:Yo Shawn I'm Bored.
Shawn:Nigga Take Ya Ass Out and Do Sumthin'.

I flipped him off and got up to go outside. When I got out there I just started walking to wherever.

I was walking for about 15 minutes when I saw this beautiful girl. She was really light, like she looked Asian. She had long black straight hair and the cutest little lips. But she looked confused as hell.

Me:Aye Shawty You Alright? Ya Look Kinda Lost.
??:I Am..But I-I Don't Wanna B-Bother You.

She started shivering and shaking. Damn. She looks so helpless.

Me:Where Do Ya Live?
??:L-long B-beach.
Me:Wait. Aint that on the East Side!

All of sudden she just busted out crying. She looks so lost and afraid. I feel like just hugging the shit out of her. I'm gonna help her. But if anybody finds out I helped out a E...I'll be finished.

Me:Dont Cry Ma. Come on, I'll Take Ya Home.

She got up and I grabbed her hand. We started walking and she held on close to me. I kinda liked it.

When we finally finished that long Ass walk to the E, I walked her home.

??:Thank You So Much!

She hugged me hella tight.

Me:It's Cool. By What's Ya Name?
??:August.

With that she went in the house and closed the door. Hmm.
