Chapter 81Game over: Essence's POV: “Damn I have to give it to the basketball team, they killed them boys in the second half. Those dudes, Syncere, Shawn, and Trent were on fire. They were unstoppable in that fourth quarter, they made a basket every time they touched the ball, and it was nothing but net each time.” Unique said, as we made our way to the court. Everyone was socializing on the court basketball team were doing interviews for the school news and newspaper. Me and Kiki tried to act like we weren't a little nervous to be out in the open, we knew Shawn and Syncere would be answering questions so we did have a little while, but we didn't want to stick around to risk being caught up in drama. Anthony, Unique, and the rest of the football team were in the middle of the court talking about the game and the upcoming party they were about to go to. Unique was very open with his intentions when it came to me, which was a big difference when it came to Syncere.
Chapter 82 Game Over: part 2 Essence's POV: “First of all, why are you listening in on conversation that wasn't about you. Second, I didn't say shit about dating him, and lastly, you don't just have girls in your past you have a harem and I am not going to be one of them. You can pretend to be blind about all the girls you done ran through that refuse to let go, but I'm not good at lying to myself. All you keep saying is, all them girls happened in the past and it's over with, but usually when somebody says, it was all in the past, they aren't talking about last month. Every time one of them sees me with you, I have to deal with foolery, to the point I have to threaten bitches. I don't have the time, the energy, nor the bail money to be with you. I have already been locked up because of one of your looney toon bitches. I'm not trying to make going to jail a habit, because dating you in any kind of capacity, means they will be doing shit to fuck with me
Chapter 83Syncere's POV: When Shawn saw that Anthony dude, pick Kiki up he damn near lost it, I had to hold him back from going outside to snatch Kiki outta that truck. “Yo you gotta chill out, you can't talk to her while you're pissed. Let's just let it go for now, you heard everything she said, so if you want a chance you better start checking them females you have been with.” I said to Shawn who wasn't even looking at me, but I knew he heard what I said. I looked back at the truck Kiki got into, and that's when I saw the dude Essence was with, pick her up like he was about to fuck her right in the damn parking lot. What the fuck is she doing? I had to use every ounce of strength to not do what Shawn wanted to do. Is she playing games to get a reaction out of me? Well I won't fall for those kind of games, I thought Essence was different then other females, but I guess some shit is universal. “Syn I can't believed you talked to me like that in front o
Chapter 84Essence's POV: A few minutes earlier “OK I WILL GIVE IT TO YOU, IT’S KINDA LIT IN HERE!” Kiki yelled over the music. I had to admit I was feeling the vibe, everybody was dancing close setting the mood. The music had you bobbing your head as soon as you walked in. Unique pulled me in front of him as he grabbed my waist and walked me through the crowd of people on the dance floor. “HEY I'M GOING TO GET US SOME WATER, IT'S HOT AS HELL IN HERE!” Unique said after we found some seats. We nodded and jammed out to the song that was playing. Me and Kiki loved dancing, we spent so many hours listening to Reggae songs like Patra learning how to whine our hips without moving the rest of our body. We don't be playing about our dancing, we take it seriously. We have never been afraid to dance or show our skills, we didn't care about what anybody said especially when we get into our zone. “SO ARE WE DANCING TONIGHT?” Kiki asked looking at me excitedly. I couldn'
Chapter 85The Throw Back Party! Part 3Essence, Kiki, Syncere, Shawn, Jazz, and Leah: Kiki’s body froze in place, her brain told her to get the hell outta there, but her body wouldn't listen. She had zoned out everyone but Shawn, he looked at her like she was cheating on him. She knew what he was thinking seeing her dancing with her ex, and a flicker of guilt crossed her face. That is until she glanced down and saw Leah, dancing on him like a crippled old lady who thinks she still got it. The feelings of guilt left her mind as she looked at the pair dancing together. Shawn frowned and followed her line of vision, that's when he remembered he was dancing with Leah. Kiki shook her head, that was why she wouldn't let her guard down. He was dancing with the female who was responsible for her going to jail in the first place. He was just proving that she made the right decision, to not start something with Shawn.“Hey, I been trying to contact you since that night, can we pleas
WARNING, WARNING! TUCK YOUR PEARLS AND TURN YOUR PHONE AWAY FROM THE PUBLIC! SHIT IS ABOUT TO GET ACTIVE!Chapter 86Bathroom break:Kymoni and Shawn: Kiki had to get away from Von, because she was two seconds away from punching him in the face. It pissed her off because he made her have to look at those pictures and videos on her phone of him and the girl he cheated with. She was over that fool, but she was human and had feelings on top of everything else she was dealing with. She rushed into the bathroom and took a deep breath, she was waiting for Essence to follow her in, so when the door opened, she just knew it was Essence. “Please tell me that stupid motha fucka didn't follow you?” She asked with her eyes closed. “I don't know which motha fucka you're talking about because you have been with two already.” Shawn said, as he walked in the bathroom and locked the door behind him, he wasn't going to allow her to run away like she always does. Kiki turned around at th
Chapter 87Back to the Throwback Party:Essence, Kymoni, Syncere, Shawn, Jazz, Leah, and Von “Why are you taking off your earrings, not everything has to end in violence. There are other ways to solve a problem rather than acting like an animal. That’s what Mrs. Jamison was talking about when she said, act like you have a little bit of class.” Jazz said looking at Essence who had taken her Earrings off and sat them on the table. “Oh, I definitely understand violence isn't the answer for all situations. But it is when it comes to you and your flunky, yall always want to cross clear boundaries, then play victim when you end up with a limp and a sling on your arm. Like right now, you want to get your ass beat, just so your boyfriend can treat you like a victim, or see me in a bad light, which I wouldn't give a good god damn how he sees me. All I need him to see is that if you cross the boundaries I set, it will end with you getting punched in the face.” Essence said,
Chapter 88Outside in the Parking lot:Essence, Kymoni, Syncere, Shawn, Jazz, Leah, and Von “Why the hell this walk seems way longer than when we got here?” Essence said as they walked to their car, there were people outside hanging in the parking lot. They were doing the after the party walking in heels walk, when them feet start to hurt something serious. “So how the hell Von knew you were going to be here, I swear you always have the delusional ass dudes who don't know how to let go. I'm going to start arranging your dates from now on because you obviously don't know what the hell you doing.” Essence said , as they walked. She always talks when she’s trying to focus on anything other then the pain in her feet and the anger Kiki was giving off. “Hell no you won't, you will have me with some dude who look like he got hit in the face with a bag of quarters.” Kymoni said, snapping out of her thoughts. She didn't know what the hell Von’s problem was, she told an
Chapter 171The Pitt: 9pm Continued Essence, Kymoni, Unique, and Anthony: “Listen, I don't care if I have to take a spaceship, or teleport back to my dorm, I am not letting to dudes take my best friend home. What kinda drugs you on? You don't need to worry about me and how I will get back here.” Kymoni said, packing up her and Essence's food. “Look, I ALREADY SAID I WO….” “Hey what the fuck you yelling so loud?” Essence said, her eyes automatically snapped open, when Unique got loud. “Seems like he's getting pissed with me because I won't let him and Anthony take you home because you're too tired to drive yourself.” Kymoni said looking at Essence's whose eyes narrowed on Unique. “First of all, don't ever think you can talk to my friend any kinda way, that's the fastest way to get you cut and cut the fuck off. And just so we clear, whatever she says when it comes to me and my well-being is what the fuck it's gone be.” Essence said, suddenly wide awake, once s
Chapter 170A few hours before the competition: Unique and Unknown Unique was pissed after seeing how Syncere was acting around Essence it was clear to him something was going on between them. Essence was trying to play it off but he could see the way her eyes would linger on him a little too long or how they seem to always gravitate towards each other. This morning when he saw her, that's when he figured out that they had something going on. He knew because he had done the same thing with people he didn't want others to know he was dealing with. He immediately thought about Anthony, no one knew they were dealing with each other they hung out because of football, so people assume it was just a friendship base on football. He needed to change his plan if they were already involved then his initial plans were useless. He pulled out his phone and sent a text message to one of his homies outside of the school. He phone beeped a few seconds later, and it made h
Chapter 169In the Gym: “Hey, Essence why don't yall come too?” Shawn asked desperately, when he saw them backing away slowly. He wanted to be near Kymoni, so if he had the chance, he could tell her everything. Looking at them and then turning to look at Syn’s mom, that's when he knew he had just fucked up. Essence and Kymoni stopped in their tracks like they were hiding from a killer in a scary movie. Their eyes widen in shock, they were trying their best to be invisible. “Friend, you think they see us? Maybe we could act like we didn't hear Shawn yell at the top of his lungs inviting us to dinner, when he know damn well we not doing that, and he knows Syncere momma don't like us.” Essence said barely moving her lips. “Shawn, we have a reservation, so we can't add anymore people to the table. Plus we don't have enough room in the van for them, and this is a family event.” Sharon said, finally looking at them with a less then happy look on her face. “How is thi
Chapter 168The end of the competition: Continued“See what the hell I told yall, don't fuck with Essi because she is a fucking beast. That's why I didn't even look at it I knew she was going to go off, her jump shots always been clean hits every single time.” Kymoni said as everyone looked as Essence laughed at Shawn. Unique was celebrating with his teammates until he turned and saw Essence walking towards Syncere and the group. He ran over to Essence, spun her around, picked her up wrapping his hand around her ass throwing her over his shoulder easily. “GODAMNIT UNIQUE PUT ME DOWN! I SWEAR I'M FUCKING YOU UP PUT ME DOWN!” Essence yelled punching Unique in the back as hard as she could, but he didn't even flinch. Meanwhile Kymoni had to rush over to Syncere who was clearly pissed and tried to play it off by talking to him. Unique finally put Essence down, she turned to him and told his ass off before she walked off looking pissed. Syncere's eyes were on Essence, he w
Chapter 167The end of the competition: “Syn, how did you let her get so many points on you like that?” Jazz asked Syncere with an attitude. “First off, this is just a game, I wasn't going to go hard at her, plus did you not see that big dude trying to take my ass out. Besides she only managed six points.” Syncere said to Jazz shrugging his shoulders. “Yea right don't try to play me, I crossed your ass up out there.” Kymoni said once she came back to life. Essence almost had to do CPR on her ass she was breathing so hard she almost passed out. “And for your information, Syncere didn't let me do shit. I’m just that good and I didn't have to brag like you did, to only get three points. You did all that bragging about Syncere teaching you how to play, but only got three points. Seems like all he was trying to do is get you to activate your slut mode so he could bang you in the bathroom.” Kymoni said making Essence spit out the water she was drinking. Jazz was fuming
Chapter 166Let the games began: “ALRIGHT FOLKS, AS I SAID WE WILL BE PLAYING A GAME OF BASKETBALL. THE RULES ARE AS FOLLOWS, THE WOMEN ON EACH TEAM ARE GOING TO BE THE ONE TO GET THEIR TEAM THEIR POINTS! SHE WILL HAVE ONE MINUTE TO SHOOT AS MANY SHOTS AS SHE CAN!

Chapter 165In the Gymnasium: Continued Thursday 5:30pm His wife eyes widen at the use of her maiden name, he only calls her that when he is truly pissed at her. The last time he did they slept in different rooms for almost a month and had to go to counseling. She was shocked at his audacity to speak to her in that manner in front of their child and his friend. Her anger was boiling now, but she knew better then to provoke him in front of everyone so she simply smiled and nodded. “Yes, I apologize my intentions weren’t to hurt you in anyway, you won't have to worry about me saying anything about it again, ok?” Sharon said, holding Jazz by her shoulders. “It's ok mother Jamison. It is hard to hear him say that we aren't together, but I understand why you're trying to speak up for me. I really appreciate you for trying, but I will be ok.” Jazz said wiping the tear that escaped her eyes. Sharon pulled her into a tight hug. “Don't you worry about anything, I will
Chapter 164Campus Gym: Thursday 5pmone hour before the competition “This brings back so many memories for us, we had so much to look forward too. Things were just as lively as it is now, but more fun, of course we had better clothes and didn't need to show our bodies the way these young girls do now.” Syncere's mom said as they walked into the Gym. The president had asked her and her husband to be the judges of one of the competitions that day. They couldn't judge the competition their son was in but the others they could be the judge of. They would sit in the crowd when it was their son's turn to compete. “Oh I do remember those days; I was a year behind you guys but when I came to this school it changed my life and it was where I met my wonderful husband. I wish he could be here to see Shawn compete today, we are used to seeing him play basketball but we have never seen him do any other sport, so this should be fun. His father should be here on Sunday for th
Chapter 163 The Dormitory parking lot in Syncere's Truck: Syncere and Jazz: “Thanks for the ride, Syn, I really appreciate it. I know you didn't want to hang out with me today, but it was fun it was kinda like a walk down memory lane.” Jazz said, as Syn pulled his truck into the parking lot of the dorm. “Jazz, I already told you I have nothing against you. I treated you like a friend, so there is no thanks needed for me dropping you off.” “Ok, so friend, are you seeing anyone now?” Jazz asked trying to smile, but Syn knew the last thing she wanted to here was that I was seeing someone. Especially if that someone was Essence, she would blow a gasket. “We may be friends but our friendship isn't on a level that I can tell you who I was dating, which I am not.” Syncere said, shaking his head. Jazz frown like she didn't believe him. If he was telling the truth, then it confuses her on why he broke up with her in the first place. She was lost in thought when she
