Joey POV
"Man tell whoever you waiting on to come on." I said to Kwon who sat on the hood of the car waiting for some chick

"She ain't know I'm here." He said jumping off the car walking toward some girl with a crazy poof ball on her head

He tapped her on the shoulder and she jumped on him in a hug. They hugged for at least 30 seconds until I blew the horn.

They stopped and walked over she looked familiar.

"Aye Joey you remember her?" Kwon asked making me look through the window at her

"Nope."

"London. London Zhiloh." She said and my eyes jumped out of my head

"Lo?" I said in disbelief

"No it's London. My friends call me Lo." She said with a smile

"She gone come with us tonight we'll meet you there Ima ride with Lo." Kwon said grabbing her hand and jogging off

"That's not London." I said to myself

I saw them get in a matte black range and disappear from the parking lot.

"London give me my pizza." Kwon growled at her

"Take a picture first." She laughed

He pulled out his phone and took one. She gave him back his pizza but not before taking a big bite.

"Lo what the fuck?!" He whined snatching it from her

"London can I talk to you?" I asked pulling her aside

"Yes Jo-Vaughn what is it?" She said biting her pizza

"You grew up in the best-"

" I know you think I'm pretty now but my intentions aren't to get with you or even give you the time of day because for a whole year you ignored and belittled me all because of some rumor. So thanks for noticing me now but you should of did this a long time ago." She said catching me off guard

"I see you not shy no more." I said with a sigh

"YOLO right?"

"I'm really sorry Lo."

"Jo-Vaughn your only apologizing because of how I look. You want to get with me." She said shrugging

"Oh and one more thing. It's London." She said and walked away

I rubbed my hands over my hair and face then joined the rest of the prodies.

London POV
I walked back over to Kwon and sat next to him and kicked my feet into his lap.

"Look at my little girlfriend." He cooed as he recorded me on snapchat

I made a face and continued to eat my pizza. I was tired and it was cold and I wanted to go home.

"Aye big head I'm gonna head home." I said to Kwon

He hopped up with me and walked over to the prodies giving a handshake.

I got in my truck and started the engine.

"You coming!" I yelled to Kwon

He nodded and jogged over.

"Why Joey acting weird like he actually sorry?" I asked as I pulled off

"He likes you."

"I don't like that nigga. I mean I did but that's long gone."

"I like you too."

"Aww Kwon. Look at my little boyfriend expressing his feelings and shit." I said kissing his cheek

"Man move with all that shit." He said laughing

"Ma I'm home and Kwon here!" I yelled

She walked out of her room and hugged me then Kwon.

"Hey Mom." He said hugging her

"Y'all hungry?" She asked going into the kitchen

"No." We said in unison

We walked in my room and I slid the window all the way open and climbed out onto the fire escape that I turned into a nook. There were pillows and blankets and even a small table.

He climbed out after me and I sat between his legs resting against his chest. We could see my tv from here so I turned it on and cut it up to 100.

I pulled off his shoes for him then mine and pulled a thick cover over us.

I woke up in bed next to Kwon who had changed into pajamas that he kept here. I was still in my clothes but my jacket was off and my hair in a ponytail.

I got up and changed in a hockey jersey and some shorts. I redid my bun and walked into the kitchen.

Mom left a note of the fridge saying that she went to work and left 30 dollars under her pillow for food.

I grabbed the strawberries and washed then off then ran into my room and jumped in the bed to wake up Kwon.

He grabbed my legs and I fell. I stood up and my legs wavered they felt like jello for a few seconds then they were normal.

"I got strawberries." I said as he followed me into the kitchen
