The four walked in the gymnasium. It was beautiful. There were neon lights all over the place. Everybody was dancing to Driicky Graham's "Snapbacks and Tattoos".
The DJ, fourteen year old dreadlocked Michael Caesar walked to the couple and the soon-to be couple. "Wassup y'all!", Caesar yelled. Huey thought the music was loud, Caesar yelling over them wasn't helping much. "What up, nigga! Finna get turnt up in this bitch, yeah yeah!", Riley yelled. "Boy, calm down we just got here", Cindy said. Just then, Caesar's girlfriend Sophia came over. She had on a short dark green dress that complimented her long shiny black hair. "Hey guys", she said cheerfully. "Hey", the four droned. Ever since, the fifth grade they hated Sophia. She has slept with approxiamtely 78 guys in the past six months. To put it short, she was a bitch. They didn't know what Caesar saw in her.
"So, you guys enjoying homecoming"?, Sophie asked. "Yep", Cindy said. "Well, I gotta split, I'll see y'all later." They waved bye. "Y'all niggas are on your own, come on Reezy", Cindy said. "A'ight", Riley agreed.
"Well wanna dance Huey", Jazmine asked smiling at Huey. "Not to this song", Huey deadpanned. Jazmine frowned. "When it gets to a slow song, then maybe I'll consider-"
"Alright y'all, fellas grab your girl and come on the floor and slow dance", Caesar said into the mic, winking at Huey and nodding to Jazmine. Huey glared at him. Casear mouthed "thank me later" to him.
"Come on", Huey said, grabbing Jazmine's hand not noticing the blush her face. Luckily, she didn't see the blush on his face. The music played as Huey recognized the song, it was one of his favorites. He wrapped his arms around Jazmine's waist and Jazmine wrapped hers around his neck.
Now the skies could fall
Not even if my boss should call
The world it seems so very small
Cause nothing even matters at all
Nothing even matters at all
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters at all
Nothing even matters
See I don't need no alcohol
Your love makes me feel ten feet tall
Without it I'd go through withdrawal
Cause nothing even matters at all
Nothing even matters at all
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters at all
Nothing even matters
Jazmine couldn't stop the blush on her face as her and Huey danced. Every word Lauryn sang she knew she felt the same way about Huey. If only she knew that Huey secretly loved her back. They swayed back and forth to the music, letting it sooth them. It was complete tranquility.
These buildings could drift out to sea
Some natural catastrophe
Stil there's no place I'd rather be
Cause nothing even matters to me
Nothing even matters to me
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters to me
Nothing even matters
You're part of my identity
I sometimes have the tendency
To look at you religiously
Cause nothing even matters to me
Nothing even matters to me
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters to me
Nothing even matters
Huey was amazed, but happy at the same time. How surprising it was how one of his favorite songs could help him bring out the emotions he's never been able to bring out to himself or Jazmine. He felt at peace with her in his arms. He felt like he could dance with her forever.
Now you won't find me at no store
I have no time for manicures
With you it's never either or
Cause nothing even matters no more
Nothing even matters no more
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters no more
Nothing even matters
Now my team could score
And make it to the final four
Just repossess my 4x4
Cause nothing even matters no more
Nothing even matters no more
Nothing even matters
Nothing even matters no more
Nothing even matters
To me, to me
To me, to me
To me, to me
to me, to me
to me, to me
to me

The song fades out as Huey and Jazmine slowly pulled away from each other. They looked in each other's eyes romantically. Jazmine was the first to break the silence. "Huey, um, thanks for dancing with me", she said shyly smiling at him. "Oh, no problem", he responded back. They slowly held hands with each other. They leaned closer and closer, until finally their lips touched. The kiss grew more passionate as the two were in pure heaven. Huey wrapped his arms around her waist, never breaking the kiss. The two finally broke apart, as red as tomatoes.
"Does this mean that we're-", Huey asked.
"Boyfriend and girlfriend", she asked back.
"Yeah, I mean do you want to be", Huey asked trying not to blush, but failed.
"I thought you never asked", Jazmine said smiling.
For the first time, Jazmine saw Huey grin. The two kissed again as they continued dancing to the music that filled the gym. When they got back to her house, she stopped before opening the door. She kissed him softly on his lips and said "I love you, Huey". Huey gave her a small smile and said back "I love you too Jazmine".
Nothing even matters but you.
