Disclaimer: I'm so happy that Drama High has been added to the list

of fanfics I absolutely love 's writing style and how she depicts

life as an african american teenager. But onto the story i do not own the

awesome series known as Drama High :( (darn!)

Prologue

Feeling like I've been trapped in a sauna I turn my a/c up full blast. Damn it's hot today. I am at school, but today is obviously no ordinary school day. As I look around at all the kids conversing on campus I notice they are all wearing bathing suits. Looking down at myself so am I. What's up with this? You should know by now not to question your dreams. I think. What the hell? I'm sounding too much like Mama. A black cat catches my eye snapping me out of my personal thoughts. Why the helI is there a cat at school? I wonder as I observe it. I notice its piercing silver-gray eyes. Papa legba's veve draws itself suddenly and continues to do so in a footstep like pattern following the cat. I promptly get out of the car and follow Papa legba's trail. Once inside the building I don't see the mysterious feline. "Looking for me?" A girl's voice chimes from behind me. I turn and come face to face with a pair of silver-grey eyes. Before I can reply the bell rings signaling the beginning of class and the end of my dream.


I wake up to my phones' irritating beeping indicating a text. I really need to set a proper ringtone for that thing. Jayd I wanna talk 2 u get me~Rah~

I sigh. Rah has not really been on my mind since Jeremy and I got back together, but I am actually kind of worried about him and definitely about Rahima.

"Seriously?" My mom says walking in from her bed room in a silky kimono esque robe. Her face is absolutely glowing and she smells like dove soap. The cream colored fabric of her robe pops against her chocolate brown skin.

"Well someone's fresh out of the shower." I reply. She smiles and walks into the kitchen starting breakfast.

"For real though Jayd, seriously? I thought you were over that boy and his shit. Are you sure ya'll didn't have sex?" She says completely serious.

"No! Mom, Rah is dealing with a lot and he has to handle it all on his own." I say the reality of the situation hitting me hard making me feel guilty. I've been in total bliss with Jeremy now on the fore front in my love life and Rah has been living with his insane baby's mama.

"Yes and lets not forget him sticking you with his daughter while he went out and played." My mom says. I'm so distracted I don't even notice her popping into my thoughts.

I have to cherish my powers while they are still working, you will be initiated soon and they may be gone. My mom telepathically replies. Ever since her powers returned to her through me she's taken every chance she can get to help me out, but I also think they remind her of her youth and what she could have had had she not given her powers up.

"Rah played you when he got that trick pregnant and now he's paying for it. Why shouldn't you have your fun? You're almost eighteen, college bound, a soon to be priestess; he threw his life away but I'll be damned if my daughter does the same thing." My mom snaps more than a little sour.

"Maybe I am being a little harsh but truthful for the most part. If you feel like you absolutely have to go see his dumb ass go, but eat first."

After chowing down on my moms delicious breakfast I take my time getting ready. I know it's wrong but I want Rah to realize what he's missing out on. I choose a belly shirt, and capris to show off my newly toned body (thankyou weight lifting class!) and shake out my thick black hair. Perfect.

After I'm done primping I tell Rah to meet me at the mall. I feel like it's the best move to bring him on to a turf of my choosing, and it will gaurantee my not seeing Trish or Tasha's crazy asses.


I know I've done well when Rah's jaw nearly drops to the floor at the sight of me. His reaction makes me smile inside. Yeah see what you gave up, I think. "Sup Rah." I greet him as he gives my shoulders a squeeze. "Hey girl you look damn good." He replies saying what I already know.

"Yeah so why'd you wanna get up with me?"

"I miss you Jayd."

"And?"

"And I want us to spend time together." I raise my eyebrows in surprise. Not long ago he was so pissed about me and Jeremy he couldn't even look at a sistah sideways.

"Rahima and Kamal miss you." Sure use the kids, but the mention of their names does make me soften. Rah must have realized this because he gets to the point.

"I was thinking we could all go to the park, maybe get some pizza afterward? the busy day will chill those two out then you and I could hang."

"Oh uh uh Rah I ain't going no where near that house while that crazy strumpets around. Everything else sounds cool, but if Sandy comes off on me wrong I'm liable to rip those fake ass nails off and claw her on eyes out with them!"

I snap totally shocking myself and him too.

What was that?

That was how you really feel baby. Sandy was and still is the thing preventing complete peace in you and Raheem's relationship you know this, and thats why you have such harsh feelings towards her. You care for Rah.

My moms truthful logic calms me down a little, but I'm still shocked at my outburst. For a long time neither Rah nor I say a word and it gets awkward. I mean I'm used to losing my head, and we are both use to my sharp tongue, but damn that was hostile even for me.

"I understand Jayd." He finally replies. "I'm not gonna force the idea on you." He starts to get up.

"Wait Rah!" He does. "Maybe I was a little harsh."

"Noooo really! I didn't get that at all." He replies a smile starting to form on his face. I roll my eyes but I can't help but giggle at his obvious sarcasm.

"Anyway! that does sound like fun and I would love to see the kids, but I have to sleep on it." I reply.

"Like I said before Jayd it's totally up to you I'm not forcing this on you, and I understand where you are coming from." He says he looks like he wants to hug me or something, but he and I both know the consequences that could have. I will sleep on his offer though after I talk to my mom about it.

A/N: OK so that concludes chapter one trust me the story will start to live up to its name as it progresses just please stick with it! Thx for reading :)
