Summer had officially ended and it was time for the gang to go to school. Jazmine Dubois looked at her reflection in her mirror. Ugh, I hate my hair! Huey will never like me with this frizzy mess! Jazmine reached into one of her dresser cabinets and grabbed her flat iron. She plugged it in and waited for it to heat up. As she waited, she decided to text Huey: Hi Hueyyyy!
Huey: Yes Jazmine?
Jazmine: Do you ever say hi Mr. Grumpypants?
Huey: I'll see you at school.
Jazmine: Wait for me! I want to walk with you and Riley to school!
Huey: We already walking with Bri and Tammy. See ya.
That made Jazmine a little upset.
She trudged back over to her dresser and started flat ironing her hair angrily. "I hate Bri" she mumbled to herself. "She's nothing more than a best friend stealer! Of course Huey likes her more than me! She has princess hair and I don't!" Jazmine yelled.
Sarah walked into Jazmine's room. "Aw, what's wrong sweetie?" Sarah asked, as she sat on the edge of Jazmine's bed, pushing aside some stuffed animals. Jazmine turned around and looked at her mom, tears streaming down her face. "Huey doesn't like me because I don't have princess hair! Bri replaced me as his best friend!" Jazmine sobbed. Sarah gave her daughter a sympathetic smile. "Oh Jazmine. Your so naive sweetie. Huey likes you for you! And I'm pretty sure Bri doesn't mean any harm to you" Sarah said. "That's what Bri wants me to think! Snatching Huey away from me was her devious plan and its working!" Jazmine yelled. Smoke started to puff up from the flat iron. "Jazmine baby, look at yourself. You're crying over a boy who barely notices you. Your hair is burning sweetie" Sarah said. Jazmine jerked the flat iron off her hair with anger. "You think he doesn't notice me?! What kind of mom are you?!" Jazmine yelled angrily. Sarah look startled. "Now that's enough. You're going to be late for school. Get your stuff together and go. We'll talk about this later" Sarah said impatiently. Jazmine glared at her before grabbing her book bag and leaving. I'll show her. I'll show all of them. No more Happy-Go-Lucky-Jazmine.
Around lunch time at J. Edgar Hoover Elementary School, the students were in a hyper frenzy. Kids were running around in the cafeteria and having a grand time, well, except for Huey Freeman. He sat silently at the near end of a table with his nose in a book, completely ignoring the chaos around him. "You're not hungry?" someone asked. Huey looked up to see Tammy sitting in front of him. "No" he said blankly. Then his eyes searched around the cafeteria. "Who you looking for?" Tammy asked, a small smile on her face. "Nobody" Huey said, looking back at his book. "You was looking for Bri wasn't ya?" Tammy asked snickering. Huey's regular scowl deepened a little. "What's that supposed to mean?" he asked. Tammy smirked at him. "Nothin' man" Tammy said, eating a fry off Huey's plate. "Why you buy this food if you not gonna eat if anyway?" Tammy said, grabbing another fry. Huey noticed someone sit next to him as he turned a page of his book. "Hey Hueyyyy!" a squeaky voice said. Oh lord, he thought.
"Waddup Jazzy?" Tammy asked through a mouthful of fries. Jazmine grinned at her. "Tammy! It's so nice to see you! Where's your sister?" Jazmine asked. As she said this, Bri walked up behind Huey and placed her hands over his eyes. "Guess Who" Bri said teasingly. Huey sighed. "Hi Bri" he said. She moved her hands from his face and sat on the other side of him. Jazmine's nose wrinkled up at the sight of Bri. He never let me do that to him, Jazmine thought. Riley flopped down next to Tammy and grabbed a handful of fries from Huey's plate. "Aye waddup ya'll?" he said, clearly in a happy mood. Tammy tensed up. "Um Jazmine, you hungry? I'll go get you some food girl!" Tammy said, jumping up from the table and hurrying to the nearest food line. Bri and Huey raised a suspicious eyebrow and exchanged confused glances. He never exchanged glances with me, Jazmine thought. "Aye Huey, you could lend me some money?" Riley asked. "For what?" Huey asked. "Them new Jordans finna come out" Riley responded. "Ask Granddad" Huey said simply. Riley gave him an annoyed look and finally noticed that Tammy was gone. "Where Tammy went?" Riley asked just as Caesar, Hiro, and Cindy sat at the table. "Oh Tammy? We just passed her when we was coming in" Cindy said. This made Bri get up from the table and start to walk off, but Huey grabbed her arm. "Where you going?" Huey asked.
"I'm about to go look for Tammy. She never just leaves lunch, this is her favorite period" Bri said. "I'm coming with you" Huey stated, still holding on to her arm. "THAT'S ENOUGH!" Jazmine shouted. Everyone looked at her alarmingly. "Jazmine, calm down. What's wrong?" Bri said. Though Jazmine's eyes were green, they were clear with envy. Jazmine burst into tears. "What's wrong Jazzy?" Cindy asked. "Huey Freeman, we need to talk" Jazmine said darkly, her eyes angry. Huey's eyebrows raised. He grabbed her wrist and dragged her out the cafeteria. "Okay, stop crying and tell me what's got you so upset?" Huey said. Jazmine jerked her wrist from his grasp and glared at him. "Ever since Bri came into the picture you've been ignoring me! I'm your best friend! You can't just push me to the side like that!" Jazmine yelled. "Ever since I came into the picture?"
They both looked to see Bri coming out of the cafeteria door. Jazmine looked down at her shoes. "Jazmine?" Bri said. "It's just that ever since you came, Huey's been distracted by your princess qualities" Jazmine mumbled. "Princess qualities? Jazmine, you're delirious. What's she talking about Huey?" Bri asked impatiently. Huey scratched his head in utter confusion. "Um, what was the question?" Huey said. Jazmine looked up with teary eyes. "See! That's what I'm talking about! You took him from me! He was mine first you…you…SLUT!" Jazmine yelled, getting all up in Bri's face. Huey pulled Jazmine away from Bri with so much force that she collapsed in his arms. "Bri, you can go look for your sister now. I'll see you later" Huey said as he struggled to keep hold of a struggling Jazmine. Bri slowly nodded and left in a heartbeat. Huey picked up Jazmine bridal style and attempted to carry her, despite her squirming. "Oh so now you want to treat me like a princess! Well it's too late to win me back now! I'm so mad at you Huey!" Jazmine growled as she squirmed in his arms.
Jazmine felt herself drop onto a beanbag chair. "Why are we in the library?" she mumbled. "Okay Jazmine. Now we can talk" Huey said as he paced in front of her slowly. "I understand where you're coming from, and I'm sorry for every ounce of sadness I've put you through" Huey said quietly, but loud enough for her to hear. Jazmine opened her mouth to talk. "No. Listen to me. Jazmine, we've been best friends ever since we were ten. And yes, I've always cared about you. I know it never seemed like I appreciated you…and I'm sorry. I guess I never really opened up to you because I wanted to protect you. I thought that if I showed you my true self, I would somehow hurt you, but obviously that didn't work. Ignoring you only made you even more interested in me.
"Somehow, you've managed to gain feelings for me, and now you feel like you've been led on, or even forgotten about. And, for that, I'm sorry." Jazmine sat quietly, processing his words carefully. Huey leaned against a book shelf and pinched the bridge of his nose. "I'm sorry" Jazmine said after a while, breaking the silence. "It's true what they say you know. Jealousy is a…um what's the word?" Jazmine said. "A bitch?" Huey said. "Yeah!" Jazmine said giggling. Huey shook his head. "Well, now that I'm over you, spill the beans!" Jazmine said happily. "Jazmine, you're so bipolar. Spill what beans?" He asked, crossing his arms over his chest. "You like Bri! You like Bri!" Jazmine teased. Huey's scowl appeared. "Maybe" he said stubbornly. "I knew it! Huey has a crush!" Jazmine giggled. Huey had a slight hurt expression from her teasing and started to walk away. "Wait comeback!" Jazmine said through a fit of giggles as she followed him out the door.
