I then felt my cheeks starting to red up. I probably looked like a tomato at the moment

"Thank you" she says with her adorable voice

"Don't thank me, you defended me" I say hugging back

"Becky, Alisha, And Britney come to the office now" The principle says sounding angry.

Me and Jahseh start laughing and pull away before The White Chicks see us

They all walk into the principals office looking scared and speechless

"You guys are free to go, Mercedes's mom is outside"Ms.Brown says walking us to the door

"Oh I almost forgot, stay right here" Ms.Brown says speed walking to the classroom

Me and Jahseh look at eachother in confusion.

"Here" Ms.Brown says handing us our backpacks.

"Oh and I know you guys like candy" Ms.Brown says handing us skittles.

"Keep your friendship strong, I like how you guys have each others back. Reminds me of me and my daughter" she says smiling

"Thank you" I say smiling

"Thank you, and thank you for hearing me out" Jahseh says laughing

Then me and Jahseh walk outside and towards my moms car

Jahseh then looks at me

"Your so bea-"

"Continue" I say

"Nevermind" Jahseh says looking away

"O-okay" I say

We then reach my moms car.

We get inside the car and my mom has a blank expression.

"Mercedes. I-I'm speechless, I can't believe you did that" My mom says pulling off

I look at Jahseh while my eyes start to water.

"Don't cry" He mouths

"My baby defended her self" My mom yells in joy

Then I take a deep breath from relief.

"So what's the wave this weekend" My mom asks us

"Oh yea, Can Mercedes sleep over my house tonight" Jahseh asks my mom

"Please mommmm" I say right after Jahseh

"Sure, Does your mom approve Jahseh?" My mom asks looking back at Jahseh

"She wouldn't care" Jahseh says smiling using his teeth

his smile is so cute.

Do I have a crush on Jahseh?

After what I did for him today, I never did that for anyone

I was so confused about my feelings . Like aren't we just friends?

My mom and Jahseh getting out the car made me get out of my thoughts.

"Let's go inside and buy y'all some stuff" My mom says

We was at the mall. Which was good, Jahseh and I could get some matching stuff.

"Bestfriendddd, we could buy matching stuff" I say smiling.

"Bettt" he says smiling back.

Jahseh grabs my hand and we walk behind my mom holding hands.

She looks back and looks at us in awe.
