Huey backed out of Jazmine's driveway and into his own. When he went inside he found both Grandad and Riley rushing to sit down at the couch. He could tell they had been watching from the window in the living room because the curtains were still flowing and the blind was still bent back.
"Hey boy," Grandad greeted Huey still playing off the fact that he had just been caught spying, "how was your day?"
"I know you were watching me and Jazmine, Grandad."
"Well, I was just checking on you. I asked Riley where you were at and he said you were on a date, being gay. So, I had to see whether he was lying or not."
Huey raised his eyebrow at his grandfather.
"Boy, you better put that eyebrow down before I shave it off."
Huey sighed and shook his head at his grandfather and his brother before heading upstairs.
Once Grandad heard Huey's door closed he turned to Riley and threw the remote at him.
"Ow Grandad! What was that for?!"
"For being nosy," Grandad stated and put his hand out for Riley to give the remote back to him.
Riley huffed and tossed the remote to him. "But, Grandad you nosy all the time."
"Well then it was for being nosy right. How you gone relay the information to me wrong. Got me looking all silly thinking my oldest grandson was gay. I don't know why I listen to you…"
Grandad continued his grumbling while Riley snuck out of the living room to leave the house.
Emmanuel was livid he had spent one weekend away trying to handle some business back home and Jazmine had gone on a date with Freeman. It was bad enough Tonya was causing so much trouble back in Virginia.
He slammed his locker door causing a few heads to turn before knocking into quite a few people on his way to class. Emmanuel had plans for Jazmine, she was going to learn some respect...
In the parking lot, Jazmine and Huey were sitting in Huey's car both mentally preparing themselves for the day ahead.
"Jazmine, can you stop?"
"Stop, what?"
Huey reached over and put his hand on her leg to stop it from shaking and then moved her hand away from her mouth so she could stop biting her fingernails.
"Stop being nervous. we are next door neighbors so it's not suspicious that I'm giving you a ride to school. Besides technically, we aren't doing anything since you haven't told me what this is that we are doing," Huey said smirking as he cut the engine to the car and reached into the backseat to get his school bag.
Jazmine huffed and sat back against the seat roughly. She hadn't made a decision yet because other things were keeping her busy. They had spent the last two days together trying to catch up on the studying they had missed when they were "fighting", she was sure neither one of them had thought much of their relationship status.
"Whatever let's go, unless you want to go first to let people think we aren't together," Jazmine said, sticking her tongue out at Huey.
He dropped her bag on her lap and got out of the car to open her door. They walked into school together side by side a few heads turned at the sight but, not many.
Huey leaned in to whisper as they continued down the hall. "See, this is not nearly as bad as you thought it was going to be," he stood up straight again with a smug look on his face.
Jazmine huffed but couldn't hold back the smile on her face. She really was worried about nothing, it's not like anyone outside of CIndy and probably Caesar knew they had went on a date this weekend. Things could be normal for a while well… at least until she told Huey what she wanted out of their relationship.
Jazmine was lost in thought when she bumped into Huey who had stopped abruptly. She was about to question him when she noticed all the people surrounding the area around her locker. A few of them were staring at her which drove her forward to see SLUT spray painted on her locker in red paint with a picture of her and Huey at the frozen yogurt place taped right under it.
The picture showed her feeding Huey her yogurt. You couldn't clearly see his face but, his afro was gave away who he was and only her face was shown in the picture and she looked so happy then which completely contradicted how she felt now.
"Alright y'all move! Y'all ain't got nothing better to do than be nosy? Go to class, go study or some shit," Jazmine could hear Cindy yelling trying to disperse the crowd that was steadily growing.
Jazmine felt a hand tug at her arm but, she couldn't find it in herself to move from staring at her locker she was angry, confused, and hurt all at the same time. These were emotions she was sick of feeling. The hand at her arm tugged harder and she followed the person to a secluded area beneath some stairs.
She felt warm hands cup her face and made eye contact with Huey. He brushed away a tear and Jazmine stepped back from him to pull her shirt up to wipe the tears from her face, she didn't even realize she was crying.
"Jazmine, don't cry. We'll figure out who did this to your locker and-"
"And what," Jazmine interrupted Huey sniffling, "What are you going to do to them? I can't even imagine why someone would do this. I'm the furthest thing from a slut, I just had my first real kiss from a boy two weeks ago."
Huey looked like he wanted to argue that but, he thought better than doing it right now.
"When we find out who it was we will find out why they did it too, okay?" He grabbed Jazmine's hand and sniffled and nodded at him.
Jazmine DuBois please report to the principal's office immediately.
Jazmine sighed and pulled away from Huey, "See you at lunch," she waved and headed to the front office.
Huey was sitting in Calculus after taking his test, which fortunately he felt really good about due to how great of a tutor Jazmine was. They had spent the rest of the weekend together just trying to catch up on all the help they had missed out on while Jazmine and him weren't talking.
At first they chose to study at the Dubois house but they would catch Tom looking at them often and if Jazmine wasn't yelling at him to go away then Sarah would drag him away by his ear, saying that he should mind his own damn business.
That happened about three times before Huey sighed and suggested they go to his house. But, his house wasn't much better.
Huey opened the door heard yelling and screaming from upstairs and immediately closed it.
"We don't want to go in there."
Jazmine shrugged, "Maybe they're almost finished?"
Huey gave her a look but opened the door again anyway.
"And another thing boy! Why you always being disrespectful... Do you want me to get my belt?!"
Huey closed the door again, "I give that at least another 30 minutes. Come on, we can study at the hill."
Huey and Jazmine spent basically the whole weekend at the hill studying for their big tests that were coming up this week. It was like for a while they had their own little bubble of peace.
Besides the fact that Huey had given Jazmine the wheel to their relationship and she hadn't taken it out of park. He understood that they had been studying but damn, what was she waiting for they both knew that they wanted to be with each other.
The bell rang signaling the end of class and Huey gathered his things and headed to his locker which was just a few down from Jazmine's. He opened his locker and gathered his stuff for his next class which Jazmine should be in.
He looked down the hall towards Jazmine's locker and it had been cleaned off as if none of what had happened this morning had ever happened.
'Well that's a good sign that she'll be in class I guess.'
When Huey walked in class, Jazmine wasn't there. Five minutes later when class was getting started and Mr. Waters closed the door letting everyone know if they were officially late if they tried to come in. He waited twenty minutes into class not paying attention before he asked to be excused so he could head to the front office.
He was about to walk in when he could see the principal's office door wide open and only the principal inside. He turned and headed back to class but not before pulling out his phone and texting Jazmine.
'Where are you?'
'I went home.'
'Why, are you okay?'
'Yeah they called my dad and he came to pick me up. That's why I had to go to the principal's office.'
'Okay… I'm coming by when school lets out.'
'That's fine, just come through the window again.'
Huey chuckled at Jazmine's last message and sent a thumbs up before pocketing his phone. He would have left school then but, there was no point in getting in trouble for skipping school when he could be taking notes for Jazmine.
He shook his head in disbelief.
If Riley was here he would say I'm whipped. When he thought about it that wasn't too bad, as long as it was by Jazmine.
A/N: I have had most of this written up for a few months now but I wanted a better word count before I posted it but, the last review had me like fuck it I'll just post again soon. Which that is not a promise that I am making. A few changes in my life have happened including me becoming an RA, changing my major and adding a minor.

Also I didnt proofread this let me know if it's really bad and I'll take it down, fix it, and put it back up within a few hours. That is a promise. Until next time xoxo.
