I walked into school with Miracle talking about the party that we planned for tonight at Jacobs house while his parents are gone. Miracle told her parents she was studying with me tonight and my mom is gone on a work out thing this weekend. So we have the house to ourselves. As we made it to my locker, i grabbed my books for next hour.Miracle- Do you know what your wearing to the party
No but i know it will be sexy
Devion then came up behind me kissing me on my neck.
Devion- what will be sexy
Oh we're just talking about the party tonight. Your coming right
I turned around and wrapped my arms around his neck, giving him a kiss.
Devion- I'm sorry babe i can't go
What, why not?
Devion- something came up
Ok i guess I'll just go with Miracle
Devion- no baby you staying home
I dropped my arms from around him
What you mean I'm staying home
Devion- what i just said. If i can't go neither can you
Baby it's my party
Devion- i don't care, you not going. Understood?
Yeah whatever
Devion- good I'll see you later baby
He pecked my lips then walked away. I rolled my eyes and turned towards Miracle.
Miracle- Awe daddy not letting you go
Shut up
As soon as i closed my locker, D'Red came up to me
D'Red- wats up ma
Oh hey
D'Red- i heard about your party tonight i was going to swing by and check it out
I think you should. You would enjoy it
D'Red- I'll only enjoy it if i see you there
I'll be there
D'Red- can't wait
He took my hand and kissed it. He walked away but not before winking at me. I bit my lip as i watched him walk away.
Miracle- but i thought Devion said you couldn't go
What he don't know won't hurt him
Miracle- ok then badass
We laughed then walked to class

I stood in the hallway texting Taco as he told me about his day. We've been texting all week just talking about everything. He a really cool dude and is very sweet. He keeps telling me he can't wait till tomorrow, when i come down there to the game. I honestly can't wait either. HI'm taking my bestfriend Brianna with me. She knows about what happen and how we text. I didn't want to bring anyone else because i was scared of what they might say. I can trust her with anything and i know she won't judge me about this. I was in the middle of texting Taco back when i felt arms rap around my waist. I jumped a put my phone up as i turned and saw Alison.Hey baby
I turned and gave her a quick kiss. What she don't know won't hurt her.
Alison- hey why are you so jumpy? Who was that?
Oh that was just the boys sending me stupid stuff
Alison- oh ok. Are you ready for lunch?
Yeah come on

I was at home with Africa, packing for this work out trip.Africa- are sure about leaving these kids here alone while your gone for a whole weekend

Africa- and how old were you when Trey got pregnant with Zion
21 thank you. They are 18 and 16, what they gonna do with a baby
Africa- that's the age where they start gettin pregnant
Shut up and help me finish packing

7th period just started and i was outside with the team in a huddle.Alright guys i got a little help from some of my formal teammates from the NFL. They are here to help make this team better. Everyone position will have there positioning coach and a NFL coach to help today and all of next week. So use them and be respectful. They could've been doing something better but they are here today to help y'all so be on your best behavior. Now hustle out
I watched as they all got in their positioning groups. Me, Chris, and Michael talked and watched from the sideline. A few minutes after the bell ring for school to be over, i saw Zion come out and sit in the stands like always.
Chris- aye who's that?
The kid i was talking king about that watched but never would join
We sat there and watched him for a minute.
Michael- Come on Chris let's go talk to him.
Zion
It was after school and i took my normal seat in the stands. I noticed a lot of grown men on the field today. I guess they were trying something new. I sat there and watched until 2 men started making their way up to me. They looked oddly familiar but i just couldn't put my finger on it. They walked up the stadium and sat beside me.Chris- What's up man, what you doing out here?
Minding my business
Michael- you always out here?
I don't know
Chris- Well are you interested or something
I don't know
Michael- well what's you name
Who's asking
Chris- well I'm Chris and this is Michael. We're friends of Coach Cam
He must sent y'all up here
Michael-naw we just wanted to talk to you
Look i ain't join y'all stupid team so stop trying
Cam- woah we ain't say nothing about that. We was just talking that all
I think we done talking
Michael- look kid i know you want to play ball so cut all that acting hard bullshit out. You got all these people begging you ass to play and you keep turning them down. Why? You scared to be great? You scared to actually put in a little work?
Look nigga you don't know shit about me alright
Chris- you right. But everyone on that fucking field can tell you got talent. I can tell that you fucking play, he can tell that you fucking play, Cam can tell that you fucking play, all of us can tell that you fucking play. We wouldn't put in all this effort into you if you couldn't. So why don't you?
My answer is still no. I ain't fucking playing alright
Michael- you'll change your mind
They got up and walked back to the field.
