April 1996

I was boiling with anger! Walking through the school with Dalvin and a couple of our other friends I was looking for this one specific guy, Xzavier. While in gym a few of the guys snuck in my period and told me he was insulting Aaliyah. Everyone knows I don't take it lightly when she gets disrespected. She was too sweet and doesn't deserve that.

"You remember what all he said?" I asked one of the guys as we continued walking the halls.

He nodded "He was saying a whole bunch of shit, calling her out her name and saying she had to fuck to get famous, and even said she a hoe cause yawl had a accident baby!" He told me "But that's when she snapped on him and left out the class"

Now I knew that was true, Liyah could be real sensitive and it took a lot to make her mad. So if she snaps at a person then you know they pushed the wrong buttons. It was rare to see her riled up because usually she would just bottle it all up or let everything in one ear and out the other.

I huffed "Niggas can be so ignorant, and for what? Yawl know that girl don't go around bothering people" I said shaking my head.

"It could be because she continuously turns him down, he been crushing in her for the longest but you beat him to the punch" He chuckled.

"He gotta be a bitch to get mad over something like that!"

We turned the corner of the school so we ended up by the cafeteria when Dalvin shouted "There he go right there!" He pointed at him.

Every kid in the hall snapped their heads at us because they were lost as fuck and didn't know what was about to happen. I dropped my backpack off my shoulder and ran over to him.

Ruffling him up by his jacket I pushed him into the lockers "I'll kill you!" I threatened him as his glasses fell off his face. He quickly pushed my hands off of him with a confused look but I grabbed him again "You got the right nigga today!" I spat at him.

"I'm guessing you heard the news?" He smirked like it was funny.

I wrapped my arms around his torso and picked him up, forcefully slamming him onto the floor. The students around us gasped as others came running over ready to see the fight. I kicked him back into the lockers and he held his stomach trying to get up, he was moving too slow though. I punched him in the side of his head and that's when he got up.

"Devante!" I heard one of the school security guards call me.

Xzavier tried to swing at me but ducked and moved back with a chuckle. Mans can't even fight but want to talk down on a female. I tripped over my book bag and he tried to charge towards me and stomp me but I twirled over and quickly got up. I tackled him into the lockers once again and caused us both to fall, I hit the top of my head but it didn't hurt that much. Him on the other hand, I'm sure the back of his head was swelling. The crowd formed around us and started yelling "fight!" I repeatedly punched him in the head but I couldn't get that many licks in because soon I was pulled off of him by security.
