Jazmine walked over to Caesar's house and let the woman measure her and prick her with needles fussing at her about eating more.

Caesar walks in later."What's up Jazzarella."He laughs "Why you wasn't in World History?" Jazmine shrugged "Y'know wanted to be here early."

Mrs. Caesar smacked her on her rump for telling a lie, reprimanding her in her thick Jamaican accent that she just got there and to stop lying. Caesar gave her a look after hearing his mom.

"You doing okay Jazmine?"

She nodded. Can he go away now? Jazmine was there for another hour before she left out the front door. The dress should be ready before the fair. Jazmine got to the bus stop and waited then she boarded and ignored the people on the bus.

In Ms. Penelope's house Jazmine was glad today was their last day."Okay class we're just going to review and get ready for the pageant."Penelope announced.

The girls went and did strut then they watched more of Penelope's videos. On the way out Jazmine's bag was filled with ranch dressing."Just a little going away present. Dubois goodluck in the pageant."Dana said exiting to her car.

Eveything was covered in ranch even Jazmine shoes she wore there so she had to wear her heels out. Jazmine walked out and seen Huey's car. Thank God she didn't have to walk far. She went to his car and actually smiled at him before getting in.

"Hi."

Huey looked her then her feet."Why are your shoes so small?"Huey asked

Damnit. All she said was hi.

"Ms. Penelope says it's a rule."Jazmine said simply kicking them off then realizing her mistake.

"Jazmine look at your damn feet they're all bruised and sore."Huey said sounding frustrated."Shut up, it's just because I'm not used to wearing heels."Jazmine argued.

"Yeah heels that are too damn small."Huey growled"Stupid pageant shit." Jazmine gasped Huey said an actual curse word. Normally it was just damn or hell and ass maybe even piss but not fuck or shit.

"Huey don't curse me."Jazmine said on the verge of tears."All my stuff is covered in stupid ranch and I feel sick and now you're yelling at me!" Huey raised a brow.

"Covered in ranch?How the hell all your stuff get covered in ranch?"Huey asked confused as he should be. Jazmine sniffed and shrugged.

"Jazmine.."Huey said in a warning tone."I really don't know, now just drive."Jazmine sniffed"Please?"

He stared at her for a while then started his car pulling them away from the hell house."Can we watch Spike lee?" Jazmine whispered lowly but she knew Huey heard her. She just wants her bestfriend to be good to her. To be nice to her.

"Sure whatever you want Jazmine."Huey mumbled back.

They drove until they got in their neighborhood. Jazmine trowing her bag in the Freeman garbage can sitting on the curve since it was trash day.

When they got in Jazmine kicked off her heels and went to Huey's room.

"Hi Mr. Freeman,"Jazmine said on her way up."Hello cutie pie can't wait to see you all dressed up as mz bitchez."Mr Freeman smiled Jazmine returned it but not meaning it.

When she got in Huey's room she didn't even wait for the boy to put on the movie before she climbed into his soft heavenly smelling bed and fell asleep.


Jazmine got up a few hours later and went downstairs where two Freemans were in the middle of a heated discussion.

"You should go because they want to see you Huey."Jazmine heard Mr Freeman say as she tiptoed down the stairs."Yeah now they do. This is stupid granddad."

Huey said back in that scary tone Jazmine hated it scared her because she knew he was angry then.

"And they could leave you money or something in their wills."Mr Freeman added Riley sounded interested"Aye Huey let's just go aint like they got too many years left anyway lets just-

"Both yall are disgusting!" Huey yelled and walked out the front room. Stopping when he seen Jazmine on the stairs. Then shaking his head at her for eavesdropping and instead of reprimanding her just walked past her up the stairs and went into his room.

The tv stayed on in the front where only Riley and Mr Freeman sat not talking. Jazmine stood on the stairs for ten more minutes before going up towards Huey's room.

She creaked the door open to see her bestfriend sitting in his computer chair looking out the window with his arms folded.

"Huey?"Jazmine squeaks He doesn't answer. She tries again still nothing. Then she walks over to him and sits on his bed looking at him.

Jazmine then reaches over to touch him but then draws her hand back suddenly. So much heat is radiating off of her bestfriend right now.

The normal person would have ran away from this boy.

Jazmine is not normal.

"Huey stop."Jazmine says her voice stronger than she expected it to be."You're too angry. You can have a aneurysm." Huey doesn't even flinch at her words. He's still just angry and hot.

When Huey is upset there are two different types of upset he can be.

There's a pissed off Huey the one that hits Riley for what he says or does.

Then there is this one. The angry Huey who's quiet and just hot the one that only makes an appearance when he actually fights someone other than Riley. Everyone knows to steer clear of that Huey who only shows up every blue moon.

He may turn into the hulk or something, nobody really knows because Huey then removes himself from everyone to be alone when he's that angry so that he won't hurt anyone.

His jaw clenches and his fist clenches and his eyes have a dark hue."Huey."Jazmine says reaching over for his shoulder. It's like she can feel his blood pressure rising through his skin.

As if all the blood in his body as been replaced with the hottest steam. Huey's not even breathing right now. He's just angry. Not lashing out-breaking things angry but stuck angry like he's afraid to move his body because he's afraid of what it will do.

"Please Huey relax."Jazmine rubs his shoulder then moves her hand down his veiny arms and to his clenched fist. Then she tries to make him loosen them but to no avail."Huey let go."Jazmine whines not even realizing she's crying until she feels the warm tears fall from her eyes.

Huey's not suppose to be like this right now."Huey stop it."Jazmine sniffles again trying to make his hands unclench. She feels Huey's gaze shift from the window to her."Stop being so hot Huey."Jazmine manages to cry out."Stop it."

Huey unclenches his fists and opens them for Jazmine to lie hers down on. His palms are still bigger then her hers.

Jazmine holds both his hands and sits on his lap. Huey told her not to do that but today she does. She looks out Huey's window then lies her back on his chest and nuzzles her face in his neck. Huey has told her about that too but today she just does not want to listen to his rules.

Huey eventually cools down and Jazmine sits there in his lap looking at her hands holding his. Jazmine feels a feeling in her tummy and looks at Huey suddenly.

He's breathing again, She wants to ask him what he was angry about but she doesn't want him to get hot again. After sitting in the exact same spot and position for nearly an hour. Huey stands and so does Jazmine even though she doesn't want to.

Huey goes to his dresser and pulls out a box. A small shoebox;Jazmine goes to look even though he doesn't say she can. It's a wheel contraption with straps on it."What's that?"Jazmine asks.

Huey takes it out and opens it."It replacement of legs for that…Rabbit. Since his arms move and-

"Oh Huey I love it!"Jazmine says taking it and going towards the door. But not before giving her bestfriend a big hug. It's almost like his angry moment didn't happen.

Jazmine gets across the street and sees Emy reading and watching t. v. "Huey made wheel legs for Sammy Davis jr the bunny."Jazmine breathed out.

Emy got up and followed her where they quietly entered the room. Sammy Davis jr the bunny could have a heart attack at any moment if he's scared. Jazmine whistles at the little guy before taking him out the cage. Her and Emy sit on the floor and strap him in to the wheels.

Then they sit him on the floor the little bunny sniffed the floor and moved a bit behind him the wheels moves. Sammy Davis jr the bunny took his first steps! Then another and more as he sniffed his way around.

"Oh Emy get my phone I need to record."Emy did as told and Jazmine recorded Sammy Davis jr the bunny rolling around.

When Tom comes home he brings Tacos and Yvonne."Hello everyone."Tom greets Yvonne has bags with her.

That Jazmine stares at them."Um…"Jazmine says hoping someone would explain.

Tom rubs the back of his neck."Well Yvonne's apartment is being fumigated and she was going to stay here for a while until everything is squared away."

"Can that kill her?" Jazmine asks still looking at the bags.

"Jazmine!"Tom says"Yes it could kill her there's gaseous pesticides and it's really poisonous in there."

Yvonne touches Tom's arm.

"Jazmine just asked a question. I asked the same thing you know I can't be away from my hair that long. I had to put them all in storage."Yvonne said trying to ease the tension. Giving them a little laugh.

"I'll help you with your bags Yvonne."Jazmine said sparing her a halfsmile but not meaning it. She took her luggage and threw it into her fathers room roughly with a big smile on her face.

Then she dusted her hands. "There you go." She then went onto her room she couldn't dramatically slam the door because she may frighten her little bunny.

So she just eased into her bed and slept. She slept until school the next morning.
