"Break up? You really want to break up?" I said not believing what I was hearing. My eyes were watering but I didn't let the tears fall.

This has got to be the worst day ever.

"Wake up wake up wake up!" I hear my brothers annoying voice. "It's time for school."

My brother arrived at the house night. He was greeted by me and only me. My parents called and told us that they were sorry they couldn't make it home. In reality they forgot and didn't want to tell us.

"Is it Friday?" I asked rubbing my eyes.

"No it's Wednesday..." he trailed off.

"For real?" I asked getting up and picking my clothes for the day.

"Yes child. Get ready so I can drive you to school in my new Beamer." He said dangling his new car keys in my face.

I do my daily hygiene routine and get dressed in a grey Nike cropped hoodie with white pants and grey timberlands. I put my gold MK belt on with my gold MK watch.

"Ready?" I asked my brother as I grabbed my book bag and house keys.

"Why you look so grown?" He asked as we got into the car.

"I'm a whole grown woman out here. So Mind yours while I mind mines." I said catching at attitude.

"Kids get in high school, get a lil

Boyfriend don't know how to act." He said shaking his head.

"Children go to college and finally start in football and don't know how to act." I fired back.

"I been starting since my sophomore year." He said looking at me like I was crazy.

"Nah you was only starting every other game." That shut him up until we got to my school.

I was late to school today so I won't be seeing Melo and then till gym. It's cool though it's not the first time.

Periods seem to fly by today and before I know it it's Gym time. I'm ready to just give Melo a big hug and kiss. I haven't hung out with the ball boys since Monday and Melo has been distant slash sad. I'm not stressing because it's probably his mom not being home.

I walk into gym and neither Melo, Gelo, Eli or Metri were there. What's going on?

"Where everyone at?" I asked Daijon.

"Ion know I walked in and Melo Gelo Eli and Metri were walking out."

"Oh for real?"

"Yeah. They were trying to stop Melo from doing something it looked like." Will said looking up from his phone. "He was mad."

"You know why?"

"Nah. I asked but they acted like they ain't here me but it's really whatever." He said lowkey salty.

"I guess I'll see him at lunch." I shrugged sitting down and putting my ear buds in. When I say this has been the longest most boring Gym class ever ... I'm not lying.

Eli and Metri weren't here to make jokes Melo and Gelo weren't here to argue about stupid stuff and O wasn't here to be the adorable tall person he is. Nobody was really talking but me and daijon and I realized that Melo Gelo Eli and O are what hold the group together.

Different clicks on the team come together because of them. People get mad that the ball boys, Eli and O are the center of attention all the time. They think they should give others the spot light but truthfully they hate the spot light it's just so happens that they are all leaders.

Walking alone to lunch is pretty weird. People are looking at me crazy and I'm just thinking in my head 'imma kill them.'

When I get to the lunch room I sit down thinking that they are getting food and they'll be here shortly.

"Melo! Chill out bro don't do nothing dumb." I hear LiAngelo's deep voice.

"Nah ain't no chill. I won't be chill." Melo said .

Metri sat next to me but didn't say anything. She looked at me and I saw ... disappointment? Gelo and Eli sat across from me as usual but didn't make eye contact. What in the world is going on?

"This the type of shot you gonna do Kaylee?! You just gone play me like I'm nothing? Like I'm a lil bitch?" Melo said yelling at me making he turn and look at him. "Well that's not gonna happen."

"What are you talking about babe?" I asked genuinely confused. I tried touching him but he just yanked his arm away from me.

"I ain't yo baby bitch." He yelled. He unlocked his phone and showed me a picture making me gasp.

"It's not what it looks like ." I rushed out.

Yesterday Justin came to visit me. He said he wanted to talk but I didn't want him in my house so we sat on the front steps. Justin apologized for what he said to me .

What Melo was showing me was a picture of me and Justin laughing, my hand was on my leg and his hand was on top of mine.

"Please explain to me what it is. Cause I show lol like you and they guy my ex cheated on me with are having a great time. I told you to stay away from him and by the way you've talked to you I thought you would be stupid enough to fall for his wack ass." Melo shouted. Loud enough for me to jump but but not loud enough so the whole cafeteria would hear. Just our table and the tables close.

"Melo I swear it's not what it looks like. Let me explain." I said trying not to jump back.

He took my arms and dragged me outside with Gelo Eli O Metri and daijon all behind us.

"You got 5 minutes." He said crossing his arm looking at his watch.

"I -i... he- uhh- omg I can't speak." I said. Metri rubbed my back.

"Take your time." She said with a but of emotion. I could tell she wasn't to happy with me. I just looked at Melo I couldn't speak. Every time I opened my mouth.

"I'm waiting." He said.

"Melo I love you and I would never hurt you." That was the only thing I could say.

"We need to break up." He said with so much venom his in his tone.

"Break up? You really want to break up?" I said not believing what I was hearing. My eyes were watering but I didn't let the tears fall.

"Yes that what is said." He said talking to me like I was nothing.

"But Melo ... i love you so much please don't do this." I said. The tears finally fell and I sobbed uncontrollably.

"Fuck you think I look like hoe? I'm outta here." Melo said turning around with Eli, Melo and O behind him. They all gave me sad looks but they of course left with him. He had every right to be mad.

"Trouble in paradise?" Victoria asked walking past me, Metri and Don with her friends.

This has got to be the worst day ever.
