18.

Y/N

Today was the first day of junior year at Beverly Hills high school and I was not ready at all. It's been two weeks since the funeral and for the most part I'm taking his death pretty decent. My sleeping schedule is slowly but surely coming back so that was good. I have been somewhat avoiding Spencer because of this Erie feeling I had about Layla and now me attending Beverly Hills high. Something told me she was not going to make it easy for me.

Not only that but I feel if I just take myself away from Spencer then I can just get by unnoticed and unbothered. Between Layla and Olivia they were going to make it hell for me if I keep talking to him so it's just me and I guess Jordan from time to time.

I was in the mirror finished with my natural glam make up I then took my robe off that my covering my outfit. My natural hair was back up as It was in its new style which was straight layered wig.

My phone was ringing as I seen a call coming in from Spencer. I let it ring as I then seen a text pop up in my notifications.

Spencer🤍: if you want we can ride out to school together

I read then just placed my phone down, I wasn't going to respond because the last thing I needed was for Layla to assume anything else.

I grabbed my phone and my all black Micheal Kors tote for school. Although my mother was a millionaire and I could've had a Louis Vuitton I chose this one because it was simply cute. I never got the concept of buying something because of the name and everyone has it. If you truly wanted something that's one thing but buying a name brand item because everyone else got it just isn't me.

I slipped into a pair of all white converses I was going to wear heels but I didn't want to look too noticeable. I placed on my hat and headed downstairs. "Good morning baby girl" my mother said as I walked into the kitchen. "Morning mama" I said as she kissed my cheek and grabbed her keys and purse. "Where's Storm?" I questioned.

"Outside taking pictures we're just waiting on you" She said as I grabbed a banana. We walked out the door as Storm was taking pictures of herself. "Look at my freshman and junior" my mother exclaimed. "You could've worn heels with that baby" my mother said referring to my outfit as I looked down at it

"right but I didn't want to be too noticeable" I said before taking a picture with Storm. "Girl they wear heels in middle school" Storm expressed as my mother let out a small laugh.

"You're always going to look noticeable because you're beautiful" my mother started off as I smiled "you both are" She said then smiled. "Now let's go I got to get to my office my models have a photo shoot at 10" She rushed as we got into her truck.

We made it to the school as I looked at everyone cliqued up or with their Significant others. I just placed an air pod in my ear. "You're going to be fine" my mother said as Storm immediately got out the car joining her friends. "I'm sure Spencer and your cousins will help you around" my mother brought up. "Yeahhhhh nooo" I said grabbing my tote and placing it over my shoulder.

"See you later, love you" she said "love you too" I responded getting out the car. I pressed play on my phone playing "All Me" by Kehlani and Keyshia Cole. I went to the office grabbing my schedule along with my locker number and locker combination. I went got to locate my locker as I found it and immediately was abled to get in. "The way" by Kehlani started playing as I immediately looked from my locker to my left as I seen Spencer walking and listening to music.

"You so damn important

Everything you do shows me you know it"

It felt like everything just went in slow motion while watching him walk. "It was something about him aside from him being respectful. His walk, his talk-" I started thinking then immediately changed my song. "Oh hell nah" I said to myself changing my song to "Shanghai" by Nicki Minaj. "Soft ass bitch" I said about myself before closing my locker.

I placed my Tote back on my shoulder heading to my first period trying to find the class which was upstairs. "This big ass school and no Elevator?" I thought looking around for one then just decided to take the stairs after no luck of finding one. The bell rung as I was still searching for my class upstairs. I finally found it and knocked on the door.

Spencer

I sat down in class dapping one of my team members up before removing my hood from my head.

The teacher was about to start her introduction but someone knocked on the door and she went to go get it. Whoever it was she was really nice and cordial too. She then stepped to the side and Y/N walked in. I sat up in my seat some. "Class this is Y/N it's her first year at Beverly so please make her feel apart of the family" the teacher started off.

"Ms. Y/L/N you can take that seat next to Mr. James" she said pointing in the direction of the seat as Y/N finally looked at it then at me "fuck" she mouthed to herself walking towards her seat. She sat down and took her AirPods out of her ears placing them in her charging case. The teacher then started talking "I am your English teacher Mrs. smith-" she started off as everything she said was going in one ear and out the other I looked over at Y/N as she just looked forward.

I finally decided to text her again aside for her not responding to me this morning and last week about open house.

Me: what's up with you?

I texted as I seen her phone was right side up and her screen glowed. She didn't move her head but her eyes read the message. She just continued to look at Mrs. Smith causing me to just shake my head and place my phone in my pocket. She was acting different since New York and I wasn't fucking with it. Everyone was going around the room standing up and introducing themselves. I stood up, said my name, where I was from, and my hobby. Y/N not once even looked at me she just looked down at her hands in her lap.

I sat down as Mrs.Smith smiled at Y/N but she didn't realize because she was too busy looking at her hands. "Ms. Y/L/N" Mrs. Smith called out as Y/N looked up from her hands at Mrs. Smith. "Stand up and introduce yourself sweetie" she encouraged Y/N. Y/N placed on a fake smile before standing up.

"My name is Y/N, I'm from New York-" she started off as a guy in the class spoke out."Ayo B, Word to my mother" he started off as the class did a small laugh including Y/N. "Dylan that is so radical dude" Y/N said mimicking a white guy as the guys smile faded. She simply smiled and sat down in her seat. "Wait, and your hobby?" Mrs. Smith asked Y/N. "I don't have one" she simply lied clearly a little irritated as the teacher went to the next person.

The teacher started talking about normal things a teacher will talk about on your first day of school. We were currently signing our syllabuses and filling out contact information. I looked at Y/N often to see if she'd text me back but she was too busy reading and filling out her information.

The bell soon sounded as I hurried and grabbed my things placing it in my book bag before I missed Y/N. I watched her get up from the desk and place her AirPods in her ears. She then handed her papers to the teacher before walking out. I threw my book bag over my arm and got up from my desk.

I handed the teacher the papers as she thanked me and I hurried out the class. I tried jogging and catching up to her but then Layla appeared in my face. "Hey Spence" she started off as I stopped in place. "What's up?" I asked looking between her and watching Y/N walk downstairs. "Nothing why do you look like that?" She questioned. "Like what?" I asked. "Like I messed up something" she started then looked back as we seen students just walking in the hallway to class.

"Nah you didn't mess up anything" I lied as she smiled then grabbed my hand. "I'll walk you to your next class" she said as we started heading downstairs together and we were being greeted by different people. We soon made it outside the class as she turned to face me. "I'll see you after school?" She asked. "I got practice" I started off. "This Saturday?" She questioned. "Yeah" I agreed as we seen Y/N about to walk pass.

"Wait, What is she doing here?!" Layla questioned. "She goes here now" I answered as Layla just looked her up and down. As Y/N was about to walk in the class, I was going to say something but I felt Layla kiss my lips. She then pulled away as Y/N looked away walking into her class that was right across from mine. "Have a good day" Layla said before walking away and I just went into my class.
