    Hi I'm Alexin, every calls me lexi. I'm gonna take you on a little trip. It all started in high school. Let's get to it then, shall we?

10th GRADE YEAR-

  today's my first day of 10th grade. I see some familiar faces around and I see my best friend Maria. I run up to her and hug her.
  "How you been loca?" she asks.
  "pretty good, what about you?" I smile and Maria responds, "Pretty great now that you're here."

  Maria and I weren't always besties, but we never were enemies. We just associated with each other. She's an amazing person once you get to know her.

  "how was summer?" i asked her.
  "It was great..." she started, "but shit happened of course."

      "yea I know what you mean, but we always get through shit." I say truthfully.

"Of course, hey what's your classes?" Maria asks as she hands me her schedule.

"aye we have 2 classes together but that's it, it's homeroom and steam." I say and hand her paper back.

*BELL RINGS*

"shit, well let's see where we gotta go maria," I start as she pulls me.

we walk to the door and I see familiar faces as were walking. i catch up with a few of them. we walk to our homeroom and walk in.

"Welcome to homeroom and I'm Mr. Princeton." he says.

"hi, nice to meet you." me and Maria say in synch.

we go inside and pick desks near each other. she looks at me and looks this boy.

"no way, aye what up Jacob." I say.

Jacob was my long time friend and I always knew Maria liked him. but it was nice seeing someone I truly know.

"What's up ma, what you been up to?" Jacob says.

"nothing much, you know. the usual." I say.

I did have feelings for Jacob when I first met him but I didn't anymore. that's Maria's man, and she knows that.

we talked for a while and then we got called down for our ID pictures. we head to the gym and I seen this boy. he has dark hair and he's tall. he looks nice but he's out of my league.

   I stare at him in awe. he's really cute. he looks at me and smiles. he walks over to me and says, "Hey I'm Drake, what's your name?"

  I look at him, still in awe. but I finally said, "I'm Alexin, call me me lexi."

   "that's a pretty name for a beautiful girl, does my girl have a number?" he asks.
  "yea i do," I say and give him my number. he looks at me and smiles. "I'll see you around pretty eyes." he says and walks away.

  as he's walking away Maria runs up to me and asks, "What was that?!"

"I honestly don't know, but that's drake. totally gorgeous tho." I say and look at him across the gym.

   "Ayeee mama, let's get to class lex." Maria says and pulls my hand.

" I can't, I need my picture taken still." I say and walk forward in the line.

the lady taking the pictures signals me to go over to her. I walk up to her and she takes my picture. It took literally 5 seconds but I walked back over to Maria and we just talked while we wanted for our ID's.

1 HOUR LATER..


we got released to 1st hour from homeroom after we got our ID's. my first hour teacher was my homeroom teacher so i just stayed there seated.
kids started coming in and I noticed one of my great friends walk in. Jacob walks over to me and says, "hey dummy, I've missed your face."

"I missed yours more." I say and playfully hit his arm.

he smiles and says, "not even."

we sit down and he asks how I like school so far.

"it's great, I like the people and the school. I love it. there's many opportunities here. and some cuties here and there." I say and laugh.

there's only one boy that interests me though and that's Drake.

now I'm in my second hour and it's art. great, I hate art. maybe it'll be fun though.
I walk in and I see a chart with our assigned seats. I sit in the back with Steven. he sounds decent. I walk to our table and there's Steven.

"Hey.." I say and sit down.

"oh hey, I didn't know you'd be this pretty. I'm Steven, you're.." he starts.

" thanks and I'm Alexin, call me Lexi. whatever's okay with me" I say and smile.

" I'll call you lexin." Steven says and smirks.

he's kinda cute but I'm interested in Drake.
