You and me or US?

Chapter 2

"J you already got a new girl friend" Josh said while laughing

"Nigga my last girl friend was freshman year, don't play me. But guys this is Jaden, shes new" I said

"Oh this is the shorty you were looking for" Josh said eyeing me

"Ya'll can call me J. I don't remember the last time someone actually called me "Jaden"" she said while laugh

"You have a pretty laugh" Dior had said

"Yeah your friends are way better" she said looking at me

Jaden August

Lunch was about to be over so I went to go throw my trash away. I came back and I could feel eyes on me. I looked around and this girl was staring. You know how when you catch someone staring they're suppose to look away? Yeah home girl didn't. I brushed it off and grabbed my back pack

"So you gonna give me your number now" Jalen said as he helped me put my back pack on

"yes" I said grabbing his phone

I put my number in and I had texted myself.

"Ill text you" I said as I walked away

" Wait Jaden, there's still 5 minutes left of lunch" he said

"Well then we can finish our conversation we were having earlier" I said as I motioned for him to come

He got up super happy. Hes so cute. We were walking through the halls talking about everything. He told me about the Madysen chick. He told me why him and Eric were kinda lowkey on the outs. I told him almost everything about me. But what can you say within 5 minutes you know. We separated once the bell rang. I walked into my chemistry class. I HATE science. I had Eric in this class but I don't think he likes me right now. I sat next to him and he didn't talk to me the whole class period. I would poke him and nothing he would just slap my hand away. So I let him be. I guess i'm taking the bus home.

I was in my last class and I probably text Eric so many times and I got nothing. I walked out the school gate and waited for the bus with all these other kids. I was scrolling through Instagram and I heard my name being called. I looked up and it was Jalens little group.

"Hey guys" I said as I hugged them

"What you about to do" Jalen said

"Im just gonna go home" I said

"We're gonna go get something to eat before open gym if you wanna hangout for a bit." He said pointing towards his group

"okay i'm down, where we going" I said walking towards them

"What do you want" Josh said poking me

"Sonic" I yelled

"What you be getting from sonic" Jalen laughed

"A chicken tender sandwich with a strawberry limeade" I proudly say

"That's where well go then" Jalen said getting in the car

Jalen was driving josh went to the passenger side and then Dior and I were in the back.

"Nah Jaden get in the front" Jalen said

"Jalen its okay, not trying to ruin tradition here" I said still getting in the back seat

"I like her" Josh said with a cheesy smile

"I call aux then" I said grabbing the aux

"Now shorty do not get on my bad side. I get the aux." Josh said taking the aux cord from me

I just sat back and enjoyed the ride

We got to sonic and I paid for my stuff

"I could have paid for you" Jalen said with his card in his hand

"Its okay I got it" I said showing him my card

"Yes not another groupie" Josh said with his hands in the air

"So all you guys hoop" I said sitting down

They all nodded

"So all you guys know Eric" I said while looking at my phone

They all nodded again

"Okay i'm gonna be back" I said as I got up to call Eric back

Eric had facetimed me but I didn't answer it that's why I walked away

Facetime call :

Bestie : Where are you

Me: Im at sonic with Jalen Josh and Dior

Bestie: Aug, come on. You have to be careful

Me: i'm being careful. What do you want?

Bestie: Im sorry about earlier, it just doesn't sit right with me that you're hanging out with a group of guys and i'm not there.

Me: Anthony i'm okay I promise. You know I would call you first if anything. Im okay

Bestie : Alright then Aug let me know when you get home. Im gonna be at open gym but you know ill text you in between time outs.

Me: I will, have fun. Love you bye

Bestie: Be safe, love you bye

After we ate and talked, Jalen took me home and it was probably around 5:30ish. The boys had open gym at 6.

"Thank for today, I had a great day" I said to Jalen as I hugged him

"Thank you for today as well. Ill see you tomorrow" he said as he kissed my cheek wishing it was my lips.

I walked inside and went to my room to text Eric that I was home. I took a good long shower, put on lotion underwear and a sports bra and just laid down. I was scrolling through Instagram and I could feel myself fall asleep. I texted Eric one more time to say good night and that's when I got a message that made me want to stay up

Green: Can we facetime when I get home?

Me: Uhm you can call me when you get home.

Your message kinda woke me up lol

Green: Awe that's okay, im sorry.

Me: You can call me still

Green: Okay good, ill try to hurry home

Me: Be careful getting home though

I think his timeout was over because I didn't get a text back. I tried to stay up for him but I was so tired for some reason. I fell asleep 15 minutes after I texted him.

*45 minutes later *

Incoming call : Green

Green: Did I wake you up

Me: Yes

Green: Im sorry ill see you tomorrow.

Good night

Me: Just fall asleep on the phone

with me

I didn't even hear anything he said cause I instantly fell asleep.
