A/N: Hey guys! So this is my first Boondocks fanfic. I was just sitting in my room with nothing to do so I thought why the hell not? I've been meaning to write something so I decided to do it.

Adding a disclaimer because I assume that's what you do

DISCLAIMER: I don't own The Boondocks, if I did there would be 1,000+ seasons


Chapter 1

Over the years of living in Chicago Jazmine had transformed from what she used to be, possibly because she was in touch with her other roots there. She used to be naïve, sometimes immature and way too joyful, but that was normal behavior for a kid. Now at seventeen she had grown into her scrawny limbs, had average breasts and could say her African roots showed on her backside. Her hair, that was always a mess, she managed to get to calm down to where it was still somewhat big, but it fell into waves on her back.

Jazmine sat on the rooftop she always went to when she needed peace. She overlooked the city of Chicago while listening to Let Go by Riddle and thought of the events that led her to this point in her life.

She left Woodcrest at the age of twelve. Her parents got a divorce. It wasn't that she didn't see it coming, she just assumed that maybe they would've lasted a while longer like until she went away to college or moved out. Either way that left her torn inside thinking that she had to choose between her mother and father, but in the end even that was decided for her.

It was decided that her mom would keep her, she was the one who could deal with Jazmine's feminine issues and girl drama so there was no choice. This meant that she had to move with Sarah to where she currently is, Chicago. Sarah had a friend who lived over here that she went to college with and could get her a job easily in the court system. So goodbye Woodcrest, goodbye friends, and goodbye dad. Her mom told her she could always go visit Tom in Woodcrest.

Jazmine hadn't gone back to Woodcrest since she left. She didn't want to, she knew going back would bring a rush of memories and it would be too much to bear when leaving. She knew that was selfish, but she managed to maintain a relationship with her dad over the phone and through video chatting, even though he would always mention wanting to see her in person. How ironic was it that Huey was always the one talking about leaving Woodcrest and coming back to his home town when Jazmine made it here before he did.

Huey.

Thinking about him always made her cringe with guilt, She never got to see him before leaving. She never got to tell him how much she appreciated him even though he made her cry a lot. He was one of the only real friends she had ever had, he would tell her things other people were too afraid to say and for that she respected him a great deal.

I used to have a crush on him Jazmine remembered giggling. She didn't know what it was about him honestly, maybe it was how he always was trying to keep part of him hidden that intrigued her more. Once he warmed up to her though, which was around age eleven, he was nicer. No one knew the Huey she did.

When it was just them on that hilltop he would be different than when he was around other people. Jazmine saw the friendlier side of him, the sarcastic side of him, the passionate side of him when he would talk about how he was going to change the world. Maybe it was that about him too that helped develop what she assumed was a crush. He was the only boy that made her feel the way she did. She still thought about him often, she hoped he was doing well.

God she missed that hilltop though, that hilltop was what sent her up and running after a month of living in Chicago. she wanted to find a place like that hilltop to make her feel closer to her previous home. She searched and searched but the closest she ever came to anything like that was this roof. It's wasn't similar to the hilltop at all, but it was still nice and it served it's purpose.

"Jazmine!"

She was interrupted from her thoughts to see Cairo coming towards her. She loved Cairo, but more like one loves a brother... or pizza...

Cairo had mentioned before that he wanted more from her, Jazmine was flattered but was content with their relationship as friends.

"Hey Cairo" she said smiling at him.

"I knew I would find you up here, always trying to get away from the world," Cairo replied laughing, "I'm surprised the owners of this building don't tax you for using their rooftop, you basically live up here." he paused for a second to hear what I was listening to. "Why do you like listening to beats all the time Jazmine? You should try stuff with words every once in a while." he said as he unplugged her iPod from the portable speaker and started playing some Poor Righteous Teachers.

"Hey!" she snapped, "I listen to stuff with lyrics too, I just love instrumentals because they help me relax."

Jazmine's music taste had expanded a great deal from when she was at Woodcrest thanks to Cairo.

"I believe you."

She was about to reply with her own form of sarcasm when her phone vibrated. She looked at the caller id, it said mom

"Hello?"

"Jazmine, where are you sweetie? Its time to come home for dinner. Besides I have someone for you to meet."

Jazmine held in a groan but didn't hide the irritation in her voice, "fine I'll be home in a few mom," she almost growled.

"New stepdad ya mom want you to meet?" Cairo asked trying to suppress a laugh.

"Yup, this makes number six," Jazmine said as she put her phone away.

Sarah was trying to find some new romance in her life, Jazmine wouldn't mind if the guys she picked weren't all douche bags.

"Well I gotta go, catch you later Cairo."

"Later," he replied

Jazmine climbed down the ladders from the fire escapes on the buildings and started making her way home.

Meanwhile in Woodcrest...

"Boys!"

Huey sighed and looked from his spot in the living room, he was reading a book and was rudely interrupted.

"Boys go pack your stuff! We're going to your Aunt Cookie's for Summer break!"

"WHAT?!" Huey yelled.
