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 128Homecoming week: Tuesday Part 5.3 Final Round: Round 3 “Ok, that ends round two, ladies just like last time I need you to write the number of the man you think you kissed. We have one more round left before we see which team collected the most points, to win this challenge.” The announcer said, smiling at how much the crowd was enjoying the new game. Syncere and Shawn were both fuming because they were both hoping that they would have gotten the chance to kiss Essence and Kymoni. The didn't know how the hell out of both rounds and three spins that they didn't land on them once. They both knew that they would have known if they had kissed Essence and Kymoni. Syncere was starting to think it was rigged. “Ok, now that the ladies have finished writing down their answers let's move on. The hostess has written down new numbers for this round. We have already used one through seven, now we use eight to fifteen, she is going to randomly place the
Chapter 126Homecoming week: Tuesday Part 5.1Round 2: “Ok folks that round was ….something else. Ladies what we're going to do is get you to go ahead and write down the number of who it is you think you kiss.” The announcer said, stumbling over his words. “Now while they are doing that, we will move on to round two. We have a special surprise for our audience, this round will be a little different. This round ladies you will have a chance to spin two times, and then the audience will pick whether you will go with the first or second spin.” The announcer said, smiling when the crowd went wild, to the point it was deafening. Essence and Kymoni shook their heads, they knew this was about to be some bull shit. Now again the same rules will apply you will have five second to find the guy's lips and five seconds to kiss. The faster you find his face the longer you have to kiss to try and figure out who it is you have kissed. I see that all you ladies have put
Chapter 126Homecoming week: Tuesday Part 5Final Rounds: The loud cheers let Essence know that the wheel had stopped spinning. She tried her best to mute all other sounds trying to see if she could hear Kymoni. She had to laugh at herself, because who the fuck she thought she was? Superwoman! The hostess grabbed her arm kinda rough. “Hey, don't let this blindfold fool you into thinking I don't know who you are. Imma to need you to not grab my fucking arm like that again. Now if you want to have matching arms and hands like your friends, then go ahead and see how this ends for you.” Essence said snatching her arm away from the girl so she could rethink her actions before this game ends really quick. “I wasn't trying to be aggressive, I lost my balance and grabbed you, I apologize.” The hostess said quickly when she looked back at Jazz and Leah who looked like they were hit by a car. Essence nodded and let the girl escort her to the person she had to kis
Chapter 125Homecoming week: TuesdayPart 4: continued The partitions lit up again, with Essence and Kymoni praying that their booth didn't light up, even knowing that they will have to go at some point in the game. Because Leah had taken her turn already her partition won't light up again until the second round. The next two times Kymoni and Essence were spared their turn, but the next time Kymoni’s partition lit up. “Shit!” Kymoni said under her breath and Essence laughed knowing it was her friend. Kymoni stepped up and scowled at Essence who was laughing, she immediately tried to straighten her face to make it look like she wasn't laughing but failed horribly. Kymoni pulled down her blindfold slowly, scowling at Essence forcing her to try to hold in her laugh the entire time. Essence almost died trying to hold her laugh in. Kymoni spun the wheel, and was escorted to the booth of none other than Unique. Essence couldn't wait until the game was over because she

THERE WILL BE A SERIES OF TEST WHERE YOU WILL HAVE TO IDENTIFY WHAT THE OBJECT IS OR WHO THE PERSON IS. FOR EVERY ONE YOU GET RIGHT YOU WILL GET A POINT! THE FIRST PART OF THE COMPETITION IS CALLED THE KISSING BOOTH!” “OH HELL FUCK NO!” Essence and Kymoni both said at the same time. “Hey hold on now, what kinda bullshiii, I mean what the hel… damnit. Who is kissing these people. I don't know who these people are or where their mouth been, when was the last time they even had a physical? Because, who is doing that?” Kymoni said looking at the people on the stage with them. “Let me explain how the game is going to go and then you can decide if you want to participate. It is totally up to you. It will just mean you will have to make sure you win all the other competitions
Chapter 123Homecoming Week! Tuesday part 3Campus Yard: “Hey, where did yall go they are about to start the first game. We need to make sure Leah can get up those sta….” Jazz was saying pushing Leah, she stopped in her tracks when she saw Essence and Kymoni. Before she could say something to them, she spotted Nyasia and Maya behind them. Jazz decided to use them to take out her anger from seeing Essence and Syncere standing entirely too close for her liking. “What are yall doing here, shouldn't yall be somewhere practicing the routine. I saw yall at practice earlier and yall are going to embarrass the entire squad. I refuse to let yall make us look sloppy and messing up the entire show.” Jazz said, as she walked up to Nyasia and Maya who was looking like Jazz was about to slap them in the face. “First off, they are not your kids and if your other cheerleaders aren't practicing than you don't tell them they need to practice. Secondly, I can tell you right now the c

We went to the mall yesterday and I think we found some outfits we could use, we think you are going to love them. Are you guys participating in this competition?” Essence asked walking towards the girls. “Uh, no we aren't trying to make a fool of ourselves. We know we could never win any of these games.” Maya said, shyly looking around at everybody getting ready to compete. “I done told yall to stop worrying about what everybody thinks. None of these people got you where you are in life, nor are they supplying you with anything you need in this life to live, so why do yall care about people that don't do shit for you.

Chapter 119 Homecoming week! Part 4The Mall: “Hey what's up Jazz and Leah, I was just thanking your boyfriends for saving my girls and friend. I am glad that they were there to help, I got to admit yall have found some good dudes.” Unique said, breaking the tense silence that had us all in a chokehold. “Yea, they are, they have always been that way even when some people act recklessly. It could have ended badly, unfortunately the people who had nothing to do with it are the ones who got hurt. But me and Leah trying to get pass it.” Jazz said looking at Unique, but they all knew who she was talking about. “You are absolutely right, I am sure you know a lot about reckless behavior. Correct me if I'm wrong friend, but didn't both of them ended up in slings and wheelchairs for talking and being reckless, right?” Essence asked looking at Kymoni. “Yea friend I think it was Leah who acted without thinking the first time. Then they put themselves in a situation that
