Riley was walking to school with his two best friends Eduardo Sanchez and Greg Wuncler, Ed the third's younger cousin. They had been friends since they met in the 5th grade. Greg whom acted just like his older cousin thought he was another Eminem and was really into rapping. Eduardo or Eddy as he was called by his friends thought he was some kind of Casanova but really had no luck with the ladies. Riley was their leader together the boys formed a click.
"Ayo Esco why you aint ridin wit yo brotha holmes" asked Eddy
"Man you wouldn't catch young Reezy inna piece o shit like that nigga, what would the honeys think" he said as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.

"Minor detail"
Huey walked in his first class of the day and went to sit by Maya on the third row. She was a friend of his and the rest of the gang since eighth grade. She was tall around 5'8" had long individual braids, honey brown skin and light brown eyes with an hourglass shape. She was beautiful but to Huey and the other boys she was just one of the guys. To Jazmine and Cindy she was their other best friend.
"Hey Maya" he said as he set his book bag down on the floor. She turned to him and smiled.
"Hey Huey how was your summer" she asked.
"Same ol same ol, and you" he asked in return.
"Oh you know…" she said cutting it short when Caesar walked in the class hand in hand with Cindy. Huey saw where her eyes went and he sighed. Maya had a crush on Caesar since he could remember but since they were such good friends she never acted on it and then it was too late. The girls thought she got over it and none of the boys knew about it except for Huey.
Caesar and Cindy walked past them all the way to the back after exchanging greetings and then sat down. Maya sighed
"Still crushin after Cease huh? He asked
"Shut the fuck up Freeman" he smirked and sat back in his chair, then sat up again when he saw Jazmine walk in with Craig Wuncler and Chris Miles following behind her. She walked to the back making sure to avoid Huey but say hi to Maya through waving. All eyes followed them to the back of the classroom.
Jazmine got to her seat beside Cindy in the back and sat down. Chris walked in front of it and handed her, her book bag. She took it after smiling at him and said.
"Thanks Chris but you and Craig didn't have to walk me to class"
"It was no problem beautiful, I'll see you at lunch iight" he said smiling at her. She nodded and he proceeded out the classroom with Craig behind him. Craig was also a senior and wide receiver on the football team. He was pretty good but not as good as Caesar. He acted a lot like a mix of Ed Wuncler and Chris an ass whole.
Everyone's attention went back to what they were doing before but not without some gossip. Huey rolled his eyes if Jazmine actually went for this bitch ass nigga then maybe he never really knew her at all. Maya saw this and smirked.
"Still in love wit your ex eh Huey"
"Shut the fuck up Williams," said Huey, calling Maya by her last name. She smirked as again.
After school Huey was waiting for Caesar to get out of football practice so they could go to the mall. Huey had to get something for granddad his birthday was coming up. He sat in his car and waited in the parking lot when Caesar finally came out. He got in the car and Huey pulled off.
"The teams looking real good for Friday" said Caesar excitedly.
"So" was Huey's disinterested response.
"Aye where you going" asked Caesar noticing Huey turn down a different street.
"Did someone hit you in the head nigga, we going to the mall remember gotta get a gift for granddad's birthday" said Huey coming to a red light.
"Oh shit nigga I forgot" he said in an apoligetic tone.
"What the fuck you mean you forgot, what did you do" asked Huey getting irritated.
"I kinda told Cindy I would go to the movies with her today after practice" said Caesar slowly.
"So cancel, it's a fucking movie"
"See I would but it's a double date"
"With who"
"Me, Cindy, Jazzy and Chris." Said Caesar. The light changed but Huey hadn't noticed with the revelation of this news. Someone blew the horn and Huey turned down the street to take Caesar home.
They pulled up to his house and saw moving vans outside. Huey hadn't said anything since Caesar told him about his plans for the night.
"You ok nigga"
"Fine, what are these vans doing outside your house" asked Huey in an attempt to change the subject.
"Oh you know my mom got hitched this summer, her new husband and his daughter Nina are moving in this week. She starts school next week, she in the same grade as Riley."
Huey did remember him saying something about his mom getting married. His mom was a nurse and transferred to working at Washington Hospital center last year where she met her new husband Diego Martinez, he was a surgeon. They only dated for about six months before getting married and Caesar got a new family. He was kind of bittersweet about it though. His father was in jail and had been since he was three, but he was still a good father. Caesar wrote to him and whenever he got a chance his father would call. But Mr. Martinez was a nice man.
"Iight, then see you tomorrow" said Huey.
"Yeah, man tomorrow, sorry about this" said Caesar as he got out the car.
"No problem" said Huey quickly.
Once Caesar was in the house Huey pulled off he stopped at a stop sign.
"Fuck!" he yelled to the car as he hit his steering wheel with his hands. If he was over her then why did this hurt so much.
