Keep Ya Head Up

Eunoia
1. A well mind
2. Beautiful thinking

the sun peeked its way threw my blinds, as a way saying hello time to wake up.  The rays were bright and pretty, I flipped my covers and sat up in my bed stretching and letting out a yawn. I looked around my room and  saw Apollo still sleeping on his back while his tongue was out of his mouth. I laughed and and got my phone taking a picture, "that's one for the scarp book". getting up I made my way into the bathroom to get my day started, I closed the door and strip my clothes and turned my  speaker on "Alexa play 38 heights by Young Boy Never Broke Again" I stepped into the shower as soon as the music started.

After turning off the shower head I opened the doors and grabbed the towel near the door and wrapped it around me and began walking  to the mirror in the bathroom and began to brush my teeth from left to right, top and bottom , front and back, I brushed until I was satisficed. I exited my bathroom and al most stepped on Apollo "O-oh morning Apollo" I patted his head and walking into my closet put on clothes. I looked through my clothes and decided on My long sleeve moon crop top with my black white plaited skirt.

Leaving my closet clothed I sat on my bed and placed my socks and grabbed my all white  high top air force and lace them ."Apollo" I was as my dog came and sat in front of me. I grabbed his new collar off my night stand and placed it over his head and stood grabbing his leash, my phone and bag. And left out the house with Apollo in tow

"Hey.. Spence you good" I was currently in Crenshaw meeting Spencer at the park. "...Y-Yea...im good"  we were at the park "Spence...come on take a seat and talk to me" we sat on the swings and it was quiet for a few minuets "Me, Shawn, and Coop used to play on these swings when we were kids man" Spencer said patting Apollo's head. "We used to be so closed until..." I placed my hand on his back "Take your time" I wasn't going to make Spencer say anything he didn't want to, his wound with Shawn being gone is still fresh. "His brother Brandon made him join the game" Spencer looked off into the sun "Man, it fills like yesterday" the pain of losing someone to the streets is not a pretty thing no, its something that sticks with you for life.

"Come on Im gonna take you somewhere before practice" we got up off the swings and headed for the car.

We arrived at the cliff, and I sat right under the tree. "let everything that your holding in out Spencer there no one who can hear you its just me, Apollo and you let out, let it go.  I watched Spencer as he screamed and yelled and cried up here. I watched as he fell to his knees and punched the ground while screaming why. I watched as Spencer tears came running down his face and look up to the sky.

He got up and walked to me ,pulled me into a hug "Thank you" he whispered I hugged back and smiled "Any time" We stayed like that until he stopped crying. So we got up and left, he wanted to go to practice, but I had to drop Apollo first.

"No, no, no, no that's sloppy, SLOPPY" dad said "Is this the team that won the division championship? huh?" "Yes coach" Devonte said "Then Play like it dammit... Come here J" dad said calling Jordan to the side "Ight boys lets run some laps" the boys moved out some and formed in to a group "Two laps and then we'll see what's next okay" the boys nodded there heads and got into position to run like they were on a track team. "Get ready set and G_" "NOVA" I was cut off by a rude and deep voice, I turned around to see the one and only Cameron. Upon seeing him I rolled my eyes "GO" I said and the boys took off, I turned around making my way to the bleachers "HEY DAD ILL BE BACK" I called out who just raised a thumbs up back. I jogged up to Cam "What are you doing here" I asked getting irritated, "Ive been blowing your phone up" I shrugged and poke out my lip a little "Yea I know, and I blocked you". Yea I blocked Cam I mean why wouldn't I  "Can we just talk Nov-" before he could finish his sentence I started walking away back to the field "Please just give me ten minutes" I sighed and turned back around "you got two minutes"

We walked a little ways off from the field and was now in the parking lot. "Okay I am sorry- "Cut the crap Cameron I don't want the sorry bull shit" I crossed my arms and leaned my body against the jeep. "Why.... Why did I find a girl in your bed with you naked" I watched as his eyes started to swell with tears. "I-I was high a-and - "Cameron if your about to say that it was weed that made you do what you did your completely full of shit. Because everyone knows that getting high doesn't fuck up your mind set. And you know what don't make since you... YOU ON THAT DAMN CLIF TELLING ME THAT YOU LOVE ME. And you know what's even worse that that me believing everything you said that night"

Flash back
"Yo, I know you didn't bring me to Beverly Hills just sit on top of no hill bruh" I watched Cam as we sat here while sky was changing a little "Actually I brought you with me from keeping doing something  crazy" I rapped my hands around my knees and laid my head on them as well. "You do something crazy like what" he laughed and shrugged my shoulders and looked back at the sunset "I don't know maybe jump off this hill" I said next thing I know I got flicked in the forehead. "Ow" I push his head and watched him dramatic and fall to the said and shake while I started laughing "Come on boy, I ain't even pushed you that hard" he sat up laughed and we looked back at the sunset turn into night fall. "Hey" I turned to look at Cam as he a serious expression on his face. "Nova... there's something I want to tell you" I looked into his brown eyes as the wind picked up and blew my hair in my face and he pushed the hair out of my face. " I like you Nova and more that just friends I fell in love with you and I want you to be my girlfriend"

"So how are you feeling now" I looked at my laptop at Cam and Shrugged my shoulder "Honestly I don't know how to feel at the moment" I didn't Jordan and Olivia kept stuff from me and my parents did at well I feel foolish for not knowing or pushing my siblings more for information but they should've told me that we had other family. " How about I take you out to make you feel better" i smiled happily "Sure"

Flash back Ends

"I was stupid to ever think that love is something for me and so with that being said thank you Cameron for proving that point for me."
