" Fat mama, get down here so we can take pictures before its time to leave. It's a 3-hour drive to your dorm and we need all the time we can get. " my mother called out to me.

" Mama, please. Stop calling me ' fat mama ' that name isn't on my birth certificate." I responded coming down the steps carrying the last of my bags.

" Little girl, I've been calling you fat mama since the day I found out you we're a girl. And I damn sure ain't finna stop now. " she said putting her hand on her hip.

" I know mama. But it doesn't make me feel good about myself. And besides, I'm heading to college. And when people start making fun of me Kaylin won't be there to save me now. Don't you think we should hang up the 'fat mama' nickname?" I insisted.

" Listen here Unique. You are beautiful. No matter what anyone says. You have to love yourself. You should love yourself before you can love anyone else. You need to realize that one day you will find someone who loves you the way you are. Baby, you may not believe it but you are worthy to be loved. Don't let them people look down on you and make you feel like your worthless. Look at it this way. Everyone who's ever made fun of you will probably amount to nothing. They'll be taking your order one day. Oh and you don't need your brother to save you. I raised you well enough to save yourself." my mother told me holding my hands.

I nodded. " Yes ma'am. And you're right. Thank you soooo much. "

" Of course. Anything for my fat -. Oops sorry. " my mother said with a giggle.

" Its ok mama. Only you can call me that. " I said laughing.

" I love you fat mama "

" I love you too mommy. "

" Alright. Enough of this mushy stuff. Let's go. We got a college to get to. " my mom said pushing me out of the door.

5 Hours Later

" Ughhhh, Finally we're here. " I grunted as we pulled up in front of my dorm.

" Yeah, it was supposed to take 3 hours but that damned traffic." mom said.

" Let's go find my room and roommate. " I said getting a little excited.

After finding my dorm room and moving my things in I was kind of happy to see that my roommate hadn't gotten there yet so I got first call on the side of the room that I wanted.

My dorm room was pretty big. It had 2 closets, 2 bathrooms, 2 full sized beds and 4 big dressers each having a mirror on top of it. I liked it because if me and my roommate didn't get a long we wouldn't have to cross each other's path.

After me and my mom unpacked most of my things my roommate finally arrived.

She and her mother came into the room

" Heyyy girl, my name is Kimani. " she said pulling me into a hug.

" I'm Unique," I replied hugging her back. I was excited that she was my roommate. I could tell right away that we were going to best-friends.

" Ooh girl you so cute. I like your style. Don't worry. I'm not gay, I just give props where props are due." She said spinning me around.

" Kimani Danielle Brown, get it together " Her mother scolded her.

I laughed. "Thanks girly, you are too." I told her.

Because she really was cute. She was about 5'5 the same height as me. With cute curly hair that came to the middle of her back. She was thick, like me. She seemed to weigh 180 pounds or more. With light brown eyes and pretty brown skin with deep dimples.

" Thanks girl, I try. " she said.

" I think our parents forgot about us. " I told her looking at our moms laugh and talk to each other totally forgetting about us.

" Good " she whispered making me burst out laughing.

" I heard that Kimani. " her mom said.

We both laughed.

"Oh, I loveee your name but can I call you Ki for short?" I asked a bit nervous. Not everyone likes being called by nicknames, me not really knowing her kinda put me on edge a bit.

" Girl of course, I love my name but it is too damned long." She said making me laugh. I released a nervous sigh.

"Whew, good girl. I didn't wanna insult you." I admitted.

"Oh girl. I'm insulted that my mama chose that long ole name." She said laughing shooing me off with a flick of her wrist.

We laughed and talked some more while I helped her unpack her things.

" Alright ladies, we are about to leave. So let's say our ' see yah later's ' already. " Miss. Brown, Ki's mother said.

We all stood in a group hug and started crying.

" I love you Unique, and I am beyond proud of you. " My mother said kissing me on my forehead.

" I love you too mom, and thank you. " I said kissing her cheek, my thank you having much deeper meaning than I'm sure she knew.

" Remember ladies. Know your worth. And never let anyone make you feel less than what you are. " My mother told us.

" Yes ma'am. " Ki and I said.

" Call us when you two get in." I said.

" Yes mother. " My mother joked.

A few minutes later they were gone

" FINALLY, " Ki yelled hopping onto her bed and started jumping around.

" I thought they would never leave. " I said sitting on my bed. Don't get me wrong, I love my mother but sometimes she could hover.

" Sho you right, Nowwww Nique. What are we doing tonight ? " She said going into her closet looking for something to wear.

" Ummm I don't know. Shouldn't we be getting prepared for classes?" I asked.

" Girl please, classes doesn't start until Monday, and today is Friday. Plus I heard about a few parties going on. You down?" she said pulling out a pair of gray straight legs with a gray shirt that says ' Boss ' on it and gray wedge heels.

" Yuppp " I said going into my closet pulling out a pair of white straight legged jeans with a white shirt with the words ' Queen ' written on the front of it and my white wedges.

We went to take showers and get ready.

After getting out I dried off and went to get dressed.

I was 5'5, the last I checked I weighed 190, with smooth caramel skin. My hair was long and curly, natural. A pretty button nose, hazel brown colored eyes, deep dimples and a beautiful smile.

This outfit was perfect for me because the jeans fit me perfectly

And the shirt hugged my upper body like no other. . . I accessorized with my silver stud earrings that had a crown on them and my necklace with a crown on it.

I was fly. And so was Ki.

" Ooooooh, Miss. Unique is gonna be booking all the fellas tonight. "

" Me? Nooo YOU gon be turning heads tonight my sista. " I said giving her a high 5.

" We should have rules shouldn't we ? " she asked.

" Rules? "

" Yeah like what not to do. For instance, how about this, We can't bring a guy here unless we've been talking to them for at least 2 weeks. " she said.

" Yeah and, if we're going to bring a guy here we must let the other one know."

" And no overnight guest! "

" And No Thotting , " I said and we laughed. .

" Iight, that sounds like a good list. If we think of anymore, let's talk about them later. Now, let's get to this party. " she said pulling me out of the door.

At the party

When we pulled up to the house I could instantly tell it was a Frat party. The house was huge and cars were everywhere. 2 girls were pulling out of a parking spot so we waited for them to leave, then we pulled in.

" I wonder what frat house this is? " I mumbled.

" Only one of the best frat's down here in Georgia girl its, Alpha Phi Alpha " she said as we walked up the steps to enter the party, instantly the smell of weed smoke and alcohol smacked me in my face. I got a bit excited.

I liked to smoke and drink occasionally but I never got so fucked up that I wasn't aware of the shit that was happening.

Yes, I smoke a little weed but my shit together.

We made our way through the party.

" Remember the rules." Me and Ki said at the same time and burst out laughing.

Just then a fine ass APA walked over to us.

" Hello ladies, I'm glad you two could make it. Enjoy yourselves. But be aware, there are some people here that aren't so nice." He told us before walking away.

Me and Ki looked at each other with knowing eyes.

We made our way over to the makeshift bar.

" Let me get 2 shots of vodka." I turned to Ki. " What are you having? " she looked at me shocked.

" Unique, you're having two shots of vodka? " I nodded. " Well damn, I see you a pro. I'll have Cîroc peach. "

The bartender handed us our drinks and I threw mine straight back.

" Dammmmmmnnnnnn," the bartender said making me laugh.

I pulled Ki's arm and headed to the dance floor.

Feeling Myself by Nicki Minaj began blasting throughout the house, as if on cue me and Ki started twerking and singing/rapping along to the song.

It was as if everything in the room stopped and everyone was looking at us. We ignored them and kept dancing.

"Every time I whip it I be talkin' so reckless. He said damn Nicki its tight

I said yeah nigga you right, " Ki rapped.

" He said damn bae you so little but you be really takin that pipe. I said yes daddy I do," I finished.

We just kept dancing. We got hyper when what seems to be our favorite part came up ,

" He in loveee, he in love with that coco." We both shouted.

Just then two dudes walked up to us pulling us close by our waist while we continued to dance. I ignored it because 1. I was slightly tipsy. 2. We were at a party. No need to act like a stuck up bitch. 3. Shit we're in COLLEGE, we grown.

After 4 songs I was still dancing with the unknown guy and finally a slow song came on. I wasn't the type to dance to slow songs because someone once told me, and I quote, "You're too damn big to be tryna be sexy." Since that day I never slow danced.

The guy pulled my body closer but I gently pushed him away.

" No thank you, I'm going to sit this one out." I told him.

" Come on. Don't act like a bitch." He said pulling my arm harder.

" Excuse me, but I said no thank you. Politely might I add. So if that makes me a bitch then cool. But right now I'ma sit down." I told him not bothering to argue.

"Yeah, go sit cha fat ass down." Everything went quiet. And by quiet, I mean just as the words left his lips the music was cut and everyone had stopped what they were doing just to come into the living room to see what was going on.

Suddenly Ki was by my side. I started to ignore him but then he started with the fat jokes. I went through that shit in high school and I damned sure wasn't gonna let it happen in college.

" Look, was I a fat ass ugly bitch when you grabbed me to dance? Surely I wasn't a fat ass ugly bitch when your little ass dick was on hard a few minutes ago. You calling me out of my name because I wouldn't slow dance with you when you were just begging. Boy bye take your Mouse from The Jamie Foxx Show looking ass somewhere with that. I was tryna be nice don't push me. Pussy ass nigga." I said calmly but letting my hood side out juuuust a little.

Everyone in the room burst out laughing and Ki gave me a high five.

" Bitch you better watch who the fuck you're talking to." He said clearly getting angrier and angrier.

" Oooh I'm soo scared." I said laughing.

Just then he charged me and before he could touch me someone jumped in front of him.

" I know damn well you weren't about to hit her." The guy yelled at Mouse looking guy.

" Man that bitch got too much mouth." Mouse yelled.

" The only bitch here is you. Tryna put your hands on a girl. You pussy." Ki yelled from beside me trying to run up on him but the guy she'd been dancing with was holding her back.

" Look, you ain't gon do shit to her unless you wanna deal with me." The dude told Mouse.

Mouse looked back and forth between me and the guy for a few minutes, or what felt like minutes before he stormed out of the house.

After that, everything went back to normal. The music started playing again and people went back to dancing.

Then the guy who helped me, walked up to me and grabbed my hand.

" I'm sorry you had to go through that. If it happens again, let me know." He said smiling at me and oh what a beautiful smile it was.

" Thanks for your help. But I decline that offer. I can handle myself." I said politely looking into his deep brown eyes that had me mesmerized.

" I know, but the offer still stands. I'm Elijah." He told me holding his hand out for me to shake it.

I did. "Thanks. I'm Unique"

"Now that we've met. Do you wanna sit somewhere and get to know each other? " he asked me and I looked at him suspiciously.

He noticed. "What?" He asked.

"You're not tryna get my goodies, are you?" I asked him causing him to laugh a very loud laugh might I add.

"Nah ma. Just tryna get to know you. Be your best friend then eventually making you my girl." He told me taking me by surprise.

Something about him made me believe him and trust him. What? I have no clue.

"You ain't tryna get my goodies, are you?" He asked looking at me with an accusatory stare.

I burst out laughing. "Excuse me Sir, you came to me."

"I'm just playin' with you mami.."

I blushed, despite my best efforts not to. " Oh, well then ok. Know any late night food spots we can go to? I haven't eaten all day." I asked shyly.

" Nah everything's closed but we can go to my place and I'll cook you and your homegirl something. By the way the dude she was dancing with is my brother Josiah." He told me then called them over.

" Nique, are we going with them ? " she whispered to me.

" Sure. I trust him. " I whispered back.

" Ok let's go. " Ki said walking to the front door Me and the guys followed.

When we got to their car the guys opened the doors for us and we slid in the back. They turned to us and shocked the hell out of us.

" No funny business. No kissing, no touching, no fucking. " Elijah said in a no nonsense tone.

"Just getting to know each other and maybe some cuddling." Josiah said making us laugh.

"We aren't playing." They said.

We instantly stopped laughing.

" You're queens and we intend to treat you as such." Elijah said and Josiah nodded.

" Ok" me and Ki said.

They buckled their seatbelts and Josiah pulled off.

The car ride was silent. But a comfortable kind of silence.

I got a text.

Kimani:

Girl, they are perfect and sexy.

Me:

I know. Lol

When we got to their house the guys got out and walked us to the front door opening it and letting us in.

"Welcome to our home ladies." They said flicking on the lights.
