CAIDENCE P.O.V

I put on a blue and white Adidas hoodie, white jeans, and red/white/& blue Adidas high tops. I braided my hair last night so I could put it in a big bun today. My hair is too long for weave so its all mine babyy. See, I'm not even mixed. I'm 100% black baby, but my hair reaches my butt. Yet and still I'm "not winning". In my opinion, beauty wins and beauty is in everyone. I put on some red lipstick and put on some lipgloss over it to make it pop. I got all my stuff and left in my black jeep. Torri told me she wasn't coming today because she just didn't feel like getting up. If I was lazy enough, I'd be in bed too. But I have to maintain these A's.

...

I walked in the restroom and looked at my hair in the mirror. It looks really good. I took a picture and posted it on instagram. First like was Devon. Its 4th period so he's not doing anything. I walked to the gym and sat where Torri and I always sit. As soon as I pulled out my phone, Cynthia came running in with her friend Whitney. They came up the bleachers and sat in front of me.

"Caidence you gotta come with us, coach ain't here today and we don't have a teacher" Cynthia said while pulling my arm

"You look excited" I laughed

"I am, we can do whatever" she smiled wide

"You coming?" Whitney asked

"Let's go" I said

I put my phone in my back pocket and we ran down the bleachers then up on the stage. We turned on three mics and some music. We copied the women from the Earned It video and sang along.

"You make it look like its magic. I see nobody, nobody but you you you. I'm never confused..hey heyyy. I'm so use to being uused" I sang while snapping my fingers

"So I love when you call unexpected. Cause I hate when the moments expected. So Imma care for you you you" Cyn and Whitney sang in unison

"Imma care for you you you you, heyy" I yelled

We were surprised by a voice in the distance singing the next line. I opened my eyes to see who it was.

"Cause girl ya perfect. Ya always worth it, and you deserve it, the way you work it. Girl you e-e-e-earned it, shit!" Devon sang with fake emotion

Cynthia paused the music and we all looked at him. I folded my arms and looked at him.

"Hey, don't let me interrupt" he held up his hands in defense

"I got this" I told them

As soon as I was about to get down off the front of the stage, he grabbed me by my waist and helped me down. I smiled at how strong he is and fixed my hoodie.

"Thanks Devon"

"No problem. Notice anything different ma?" He asked with a smirk

I examined him for a second then gasped. "Your hair!"

I hugged him tight and then ran my fingers through his soft hair. This makes me extremely happy because he's changing already, for the better.

"You did it!!" I shrieked. "I love you for this Devon, you look really good"

"Thanks. Ya know, I wasn't sure about it but you liked the idea so when I did it and realized I did look good, I thought why not" he said

"So where's your click?"

"Umm, I don't know. Probably watching Ivana bully somebody. I should go" he started to walk away

I grabbed his arm. "And why can't you stay with us? You don't want Ivana to catch you with me? Cause I'll beat the girl up if you want" I said with my eyebrows raised
