I looked at the rolled up joint of weed in my hand.

"Welp, here goes nothing." I said as I put the joint up to my lips.

~Jacob's POV

"Aye, Princeton's here!" I heard Diggy say as I walked into the basement.

The crew was Diggy, Janae, Imani, Corahn, and two other cute girls.

"Wassup y'all." I said, sitting down. "Alright, we were gonna play Truth Or Dare. Jacob, you're welcome to play if you want." Imani cooed, getting close to me.

"Alright, I guess I'll play a few rounds." I said before sitting down.

"Since yo' ass can't be on time, you gotta go first." Diggy chuckled.

"Jacob, truth or dare?" Janae asked.

"Uh, truth." I replied.

"How long is your-"

"NEXT." Imani interrupted.

"Uh, Imani. Truth or dare?"

We played for a couple more rounds, then it was my turn again.

"Princeton, truth or dare?" Janae said.

"Uhm, truth." I replied.

"Is it true that you have feels for Aliyah?" She said.

The mood changed instantly.

I felt my heart beating, and I was even sweating a little.

"Well, uh."

"Awww." Janae and Imani cooed at the same time.

Why couldn't I just answer?

"Naw, it's nothing like that." I quickly replied.

"Boy, stop lying." Imani said.

"Look," Janae started. "We see the way you look at her. You've never done that to ANY girl before. And the way you protect her? Jacob , you're in love. I believe she's the one."

There was an awkward silence after that.

Maybe I am falling in love.

~Aliyah's POV

I put the joint up to my lips and took a small puff, before coughing it out.

"Whoa, Aliyah. Chill, just take it easy." Jamal said, taking a puff.

"I can't do this."

"Naw, it's easy. It was your first time, just try again." He insisted.

I tried again.

It wasn't that bad, actually.

I took two puffs and passed it back to Jamal.

"Aye, you feel better?" He said.

"I, I can't think straight. What is this?"

I tried to stand up.

"Shit." I mumbled to myself.

~Jacob's POV

"It's time for me to go, y'all." i said, getting up.

Aliyah must've been terrified.

"Aww, you gonna go kiss your girlfriend?" Diggy laughed.

"Shut up." I said before heading upstairs.

I saw Aliyah and some guy dancing together.

"Aliyah, we gotta go." I said, grabbing her hand.

"Nigga, the fuck?" She squealed. I could smell the weed on her breath.

"Are you high?" I asked.

"Well, I'm not low." She giggled.

"Forreal, we gotta go before something bad happens."

"The fuck imma do? I'm so high right now, you look like a fuckin' unicorn with an afro."

"You should probably go, Aliyah. Don't forget to text me." the guy said, separating from Aliyah. I looked him up and down. Who the hell is he?

"I'm Jamal, long-time friend of Aliyah." He said.

"Uh huh. I'm Jacob." I replied.

"Fine, I'll leave. Let's go afro unicorn." She said, walking to the door.

"I knew I shouldn't have taken you." I mumbled.

"No! It was fun!" She exclaimed.

"Just get in the car."

We drove over to Ray Ray's. I knew they were gonna kill me for letting Aliyah get high.

I gave her a piece of gum, so they wouldn't smell the smoke in her breath, doubting that it would help.

As I pulled into Ray Ray's driveway, I noticed that Prodigy's car was already there.

I really don't wanna beat his ass today.

"Act normal." I whispered as I knocked on Ray Ray's door.
