I was wrong. That was the last time Sam and I talked. After the "date" Sam took me home and that was it. The day after that I saw Sam and he saw me, he just looked at me then looked away.

It's like I was invisible. Every time we made eye contact he would break it. I don't blame him; I would be embarrassed to be seen with me too. I just pulled down my Stussy hat.

It has been exactly 1 month since our date. He hasn't even tried to talk to me or text me. I still have his number saved as baby on my phone.

You know what, forget about him. It's not like I'm attached to him.

It's actually good that he was leaving me alone. People weren't staring at me as much. I went back to being invisible. Just the way I like it.

It sucked that I had almost every class with Sam though. I saw him at least three times a day. He would see me sitting in the back, look at me, and then he would look away and sit in the front with his popular friend.

I walked to my locker and placed my books in there then closed it shut. I turned around to see Hunter in front of me. He was being his usual annoying self as always. He smirked at me then said "Hi baby". Oh my gosh! Does he not know when to quit.

I looked at him straight in the eyes and said: " get out of my way hunter". And of course, Hunter being the bug that he is didn't even move a muscle. He's like a roach that you just can't get rid of.

I walked passed him but he followed me like the creep that he is. I didn't even bother to turn around, I knew it was him.

Without me expecting it he slammed me up against a locker. When my back came in contact with the metal part of the locker I winced in pain. Memories were coming back to me. Memories I didn't want to remember.

I tried to push him away from me but, he was way stronger than I was. He was leaning slowly towards me when all of a sudden Sam came out of nowhere. He looked Hunter in the eyes than Hunter just backed away from me slowly.

When Hunter was completely gone Sam asked me "are you okay?"

Why in the world was he talking to me? Wasn't he embarrassed to be seen with me because of how I looked? out of all the models in this school, why would he talk to me? I didn't have time for his games. I had places to be.

I didn't even do a double-take. I just walked away. Fuck him. Who the fuck he think he is not talking to me for one whole month than coming to help me all of a sudden? He might play with girls and dated almost all of then in this school but, I know for a fact he won't get this girl.

**Sam's POV**

The date with diamond went amazing. It was exactly as planned. She made me laugh and feel free. Free enough to be me. I didn't have to live up to any expectations.

When we were done with our date I drove her home and told her good night. I wanted to kiss her but, I could tell she wasn't like any of the girls at the school. I don't think she would like me to kiss her.

That night when I went home I got a phone call from my best friend Noah. I knew him ever since I was in second grade. He was the first friend I made and he still is the only real friend I have.

Yeah, I had plenty of people to talk to but, they were not considered my friends. It was just for popularity.

We did our usual small talk when a different subject came up. Noah told me the worst news I could probably receive.

I had many enemies that came with those actions. That's why I didn't let people into my life easily. I was surprised that I let Diamond in so quick.

When he told me I had to stay away from Diamond my heart broke a little. I was just getting used to her.

When I asked Noah why I had to stay away from her he went silent. When Noah went silent you know there was something wrong. He rarely ever shuts up.

After several minutes of silence Noah whispered into the phone "if you don't stay away from Diamond than the black panthers will kill her, you have to show them that she doesn't mean anything to you".

The phone dropped from my hand and onto my bed where I was laying. I couldn't stay from her. She was so beautiful. Her puffy black hair, beautiful cocoa skins, and brown eyes.

It still confuses me as to why they names after a historically black powerful group but, then it dawned on me. I remember the leader saying that they chose the name "Black Panther" so it could distract the authorities from the fact that it's a gang. They consider themselves to be a club of men that study historical events so the police won't be suspicious.

Noah continued talking and I quickly picked up the phone. I heard him say " one of the members from the gang saw you with Diamond ".

Damn. I knew I shouldn't have asked her out. Now because of me, Diamond was in trouble with the city's most dangerous gang.

I knew why they were doing this. It was because I had taken 5 pounds of weed from them without paying the $5,000 I owed them for the weed.

They wanted to kill Diamond because of my mistakes. I wouldn't forgive myself if something happened to Diamond. I guess I had to stay away from her, for her own good.

I haven't talked to Diamond for one month now. Every time I saw her I had to look away from her. Every time she caught me staring I had to pretend like I wasn't looking at her. It was slowly killing me. I couldn't take it anymore. I had to pay the money. I couldn't stay away from her anymore.

Once the bell rung I saw Diamond quickly packing all her stuff and leaving the class as fast as she can.

I was talking to Noah by his locker when I noticed that Hunter was hitting on Diamond. Something happened to my stomach watching them together. The pit of my stomach twisted into a knot.

Why do I care what she's doing? We are not dating or anything.

She told Hunter something and he looked mad. She walked away and he followed. I didn't trust him being all with Diamond.

When I finally caught up with them is was shocked to see Diamond pinned up against a locker with Hunter hovering over her.

My vision became black and I couldn't see anything. I was furious. I couldn't stand seeing Diamond with someone else but, I knew I couldn't have her either.

I walked up to them and just stared at Hunter with anger In my eyes.

Being the punk that Hunter is he walked away slowly until he disappeared.

When he was gone I faced Diamond and asked her "are you okay?"

She didn't even look at me. She stood there for about 5 seconds then walked away from me.

I deserved that though. I stopped talking to her for a full month, then all of a sudden I come to save her. That was a real douche bag move I did there.

I just have to win her back somehow. Just you wait.
