Chapter 33- Princeton's Birthday Part 2

Picking up dishes, throwing 'em at you,

Why are you speaking when no one asked you"

I rapped then Isis sang. We had everyone staring at us.

"You see right through me. How do you do that? You see right through me. How do you do that? You see right through me. How do you do that? How do you? How do you? How do you? How do you? How do you?" Isis sang. Everyone clapped for us.

"Now dance!" Ray yelled out in a deep voice from the back.

"Like we don't know that its you, Ray!" Isis shouted. Everyone laughed as they turned toward Ray's direction.

"Sorry, but we aren't going to dance tonight. This isn't our night-- its Princeton's." I smiled and everyone went back to what they were doing.

"Wow. Artemis. Isis. That was amazing! I can't wait to hear all four of you. What's your group name?" Babydoll smiled.

"Unique Royalty. Our mission is for girls to know that they are beautiful and that they should take pride in who they are and what they do." Isis said proudly.

"Wow. And your stage names?" Beauty asked.

"I'm Princess, Isis is Royalty, Jari is Jewel, and Brittany is TrendyB." I answered.

"Who is the lead singer?" Star asked as w walked to the food table.

"Jari, but we all sing. I'm the lead rapper and spokesperson. Isis raps every once in a while and we all dance." I answered.

"Do you write your own things?" Star asked.

"Yes. Artty and I are poets." Isis answered.

"Do you act or do anything else? Like visual art or something?" Beauty asked.

"Yes. We all act and Isis can draw kinda sorta." I smiled.

"Wow. You girls gonna give us a run for our money pretty soon." Babydoll joked. We all laughed as we got something to eat.

"Hey girls. I'm sorry, but I have to steal Artemis away from you." Prince said sweetly as he grabbed my arm gently and pulled me to a group of people that looked like Princeton. I'm guessing I'm meeting more of his family.

"Everyone, this Artemis Williams-- my girlfriend." Prince introduced me proudly. "Artemis, this my big family. You remember Bella right?"

"Hi everyone. And of course. How could I forget Bella? She has the sweetest smile." I smiled and waved. Bella hugged me tightly.

"Hey Princess. Its great to see you again!" Bella smiled.

"You too, Bells." I said and looked at the rest of Prince's and Bella's family. They stared back at me-- sizing me up.

Oh great.

"How old are you?" A man, maybe one of Prince's uncles, asked.

"Fourteen, sir." I answerd politely. Prince wrapped an arm around my waist as Bella wrapped an arm around my shoulders.

"And where do you live?" A lady, his aunt, asked.

"New Orleans." I said. They all gasped. Oooh! The violence! Please.

"And how did you two meet?" Another uncle asked.

"I was on my Instagram and got a comment on a picture from Jacob asking for my Kik then he followed me and Kiked me. Then we talked on the phone, texted, and Skyped for most of November." I explained. They were silent for a few heartbeats. Princeton's arm tightened around me.
