"Look at your bun." Legacy said playing with it as I stood in front of him. We were supposed to be saying good night to each other, but wasn't ready to. We had too much fun at the skate key tonight and I still can't shake the fact that he knew all of them songs that were played tonight. "What's wrong with it?" I asked confused. "Its dead and all sweated it out. Those were your songs huh?" He chuckled. And I nodded my head with a smile. "All sixty three of them right?" He asked and I started laughing. "Yes they were, all sixty three." I giggled until Calvin honked the horn inside of Legacy's car. I sucked my teeth then rolled my eyes. Everyone still carried on when Kaylee had a attitude, so what's the problem now that the tables turned ? Oh. He can wait. Legacy looked over at his car, but I softly turned his head back to me. "Mean ass. But I'll see you tomorrow aight?" Legacy chuckled. But I pouted and crossed my arms acting like a big baby. "Don't do that shit Kay have my ass ready to stay here all night. But I promise to see you tomorrow, I don't even work. So you can take that promise up with me. Aight?" He asked looking me in the eyes. I slowly nodded my head which made him smile. "Good girl. Give me some sugar." Legacy said leaning in closer. But I started laughing. I haven't heard that saying in decades ! "What? Yo ass always laughing." He laughed. "Give me some sugar." I mimicked him and he laughed then sucked his teeth. "Childish." Legacy laughed some more. Calvin honked the car once again, so Legacy kissed me quickly. I wasn't done with his lips though, so when he tried to break the kiss I held onto his bombers jacket. Legacy laughed against my lips but went back to kissing me back as his hands slid down to my butt and he gave it a nice squeeze. Damn Legacy. We broke the kiss and tapped kissed each other once more. "Good night punk." I blushed and opened Clementine's car door. She was looking like Play and Bilal did when Kid walked Sydney to the door and they ended up kissing. "Care to tell me what was all that about?" She smirked. I laughed and shrugged playing clueless. "Awe don't do that to me Kay!" Clementine whined making me laugh at her. "We made up I guess." I shrugged while putting on my seat belt. "You lucky I'm tired and not in the mood at all or I would've got way more out of your ass, but you get off this time." Clementine squinted at me before driving off. I sat back with a smile on my face. Its not like we were dating, but something was obviously there. Either way if he likes it or not, I'll be telling my best friend all about tonight.
......
"So where are you two going?" I smiled as I stared at Roman on the other side of the phone. I was supposed to go to his house, but he told me that he was at work and then later he'll be taking Shante out tonight. So he just called me while he was on break so I can tell him about last night.
"Out." He said and we started laughing.
"That was rude as hell but whatever. Fine you don't have to tell me." I playfully rolled my eyes.

"Nah we're going to Sugar Factory and I'll probably break her ankles in the gym." Roman smirked which had me laughing uncontrollably. He plays entirely too much.
"Leave her alone before you end up alone." I laughed some more.
"Nah I'm fucking with you, but what's up? What did you have to tell me?" Roman asked.
"Ro you'll have to promise me that you won't get mad." I whined. I don't even know why I was such in a rush to telling his overprotective ass. But if he do try to argue, I have somewhat the best comeback for him. Let's see how this goes.
Roman raised his eye brows up at me and shrugged. "What you replacing me with Clementine?". Was he crazy ?! And why was he so calm about that ?! I'll fight all his friends just to stay his one and only best friend. Ain't no sharing over here, I'm very stingy when it comes to Roman.
"What?! No. Never and why aren't you mad? What if that was true?!" I snapped on him, but all he do was laugh at me.
"I was just guessing Kaylee calm down. You know I'll go to hell and back for your big headed ass." He laughed. "But tell me what's up?".
"No. You have to say 'Kaylee I promise not to get mad' and then I'll tell you." I said.
"Kaylee I promise not to get mad, now speak." Roman rushed me and I sucked my teeth.
"Legacy and I kissed last night.... Twice. And it felt like everything but--- and he cut me off with a laugh.
"Are you done?" He continued to laugh. I nodded my head with a sigh. I knew he wasn't even going to take this light. "Let me guess that's why you sent me back home right? So you can be in that nigga face and then you'll be all mad and shit when he finds a new dummy to toy around with until he wants you back again and you'll go without a fight." Just when I thought I had everything planned out if he did snap on my ass and look how easily I shut down. Damn talking about throwing shit in my face. And its not like he constantly tossed me to the side, he was only being petty to Yolanda for some damn reason.
"But Ro--- and he cut me off again. "Matter of fact ignore everything I just said. Fuck with that nigga if you want, I guess this'll be your first heart break right? Bye." And with that he hung up on me. I shook my head and tossed my phone to the side. This is what I get for opening my damn mouth. Sitting in the same spot for the next ten minutes as Roman words repeated in my mind. Hearing a knock at the door, I stood up and went to go open the door. "Who is it?" I asked. "Jayde. I need your help with something." She said. So I quickly snatched the door opened and let her inside. "Hey boo. What's wrong?" She asked after our hug. "Roman and his nasty ass attitude." I shrugged with a pout and closed the door. "Why are you two fighting now?" Jayde asked with her hands on her hips. "He doesn't want me to grow up and I'll be damned if I tell on him because it'll only back fire on me." I shrugged. My parents plus his parents and uncles would get my ass, especially if we're fighting over some boy. "How so?" Jayde tilt her head to the side. "Okay so yesterday Legacy and I kissed, but it wasn't like the first time if I ever even told you about the first time. And since Roman is my best friend I wanted to tell him what happened but he only flipped the script and cursed me out." I shrugged and grabbed my hot pink Nike tech sweat suit with a pair of black thermals. "Oh he don't want his little Kaylee to be loved by someone else because it isn't by him." Jayde smirked. I laughed and grabbed a pair of socks with my black Uggs as well. "But how unfair is that? I let him have plenty of girlfriends, side chicks, one night stands and all. And I can't have a simple ass boyfriend?" I asked making Jayde smirk. "You don't think Roman might like you? That's why every boy isn't good for you?" She smirked and I laughed. "No. Roman tells me that I'm not his type all the time, he likes them Spanish heffas." I fanned her off. And we started laughing. "Ohhhh that's explains the girl that I see him with on campus. She's real pretty too, but I swear it have to be something up with Roman. Or he just don't like Legacy." She shrugged. "Can't be, they're old teammates. They're close as hell right along with Kaiden big headed ass." I said. I should've told him, but then again I'm glad I didn't. He would've only exaggerated the story as he told it to Roman and had that boy running after both Legacy and I. "Yeah so he likes you. Point. Blank. Period. Now go get ready." Jayde shooed me away. I laughed and sat down on my bed. Before Clementine left to work, I took a shower then ended up falling back to sleep. "But that's not fair for me, I don't like Roman like that." I said while stripping out of my pajamas. Jayde smirked and shrugged. "So still do whatever you're doing with Legacy and let Roman go on about his business." I looked up at her with a frown. "How? Sneak around with Legacy behind his back? Nah I'm cool. Roman hold grudges." I shrugged and started getting dressed. "So what you'll rather be alone and let Roman have all the girls he want? You're the greatest best friend I've ever known." She smiled sarcastically. "Fuck you Jayde." I laughed and passed her the brush. "Can you give me a bun please?" I smiled. "No you just said fuck me." Jayde said but still took both the brush and pony tail holder. "Because you're trying to make me go against my best friend not knowing how crazy he is." I sat down on my bed again. She began to brush my hair up while she ignored me. "So what did you need help with anyways?" I asked. "The nail salon, the hair salon and shopping." Jayde said making me smile. I should've waited for her instead of getting my wash n set the other day. "Where are you going that you need all of that?" I smirked. And it better not be with Quentin either or I'm going to kick her ass. "Nah I don't feel like bragging being that you're going through something right now." Jayde said making me smile. "Oh my god you're so cute! But you could tell me." I smiled standing up and grabbed my black H&M wallet then my coat. "For real? I'm not trying to be rude." She said zippering her coat back up. "If you don't tell me I won't go with you." I smirked. Jayde squinted at me, but shrugged. "Daniel is taking me out to dinner tonight." I started smiling. So I'm guessing that baby experiment made more than a friendship huh ? Go them. "Awwwe you should've been told me! Girl come on!" I grabbed her hand and rushed out of the room. Jayde couldn't stop laughing at me. I slammed the door and rushed to the elevator. "Do you know where he's taking you?" I smiled as we waited for the elevator. "No... Not really. But I want to be able to look cute and be warm at the same time." Jayde suggested. I started smiling. "You probably won't believe me but I already have the perfect outfit in my head already." I smiled making Jayde laugh. "Oh no I believe you because your outfits be nice as hell." She smiled. "Thank you and yeah I have the perfect outfit for you."

......
"You like it?" I smiled as Daniel walked into Jayde's room. She was dressed in a black long sleeve leotard, high waist 90's jeans that were cuffed at the ankles and black shiny pumps. I made her ass take out them braids and get a wash n set, so now her hair carelessly hung off her shoulders that was parted down in the middle. Even though she was make up free, Jayde still had the beauty looks going on. Making sure that the world could see how glossy her lips were, I coated her lips in one of my favorite lip glosses; Shine Shot. She wore some gold hoops that matched her gold 'Jayde' necklace and her gold 'Jayde' bracelet. I was two seconds away from crying, my chicken head finally looked all types of girly. Jayde loves her some sweats, basketball shorts and leggings, mainly Nike. She loved her some Nile gear. But since I dressed her, it was a whole different kind of ball game for her. "I - I love that shit. Damn Jayde." Daniel stuttered over his words which made us both laugh at him. Well my job was done, I grabbed my phone and walked over to Jayde. "Can I get a picture before I leave?" I smiled unlocking my phone. "Sure. By myself or with Daniel?" Jayde smiled flipping her hair back. Yesssss Jayde ! I was loving that she liked this new look on herself. "He know he wants to be in my gallery. So why not?" I joked which made them laugh at me. Daniel stood next to her and put his around her. "Awwwe you two are so cute!" I squealed and took two pictures. "Okay I got it, thanks ya. And love you Jayde pooh have fun. Daniel I'm holding you responsible for my baby.... You know the rest." I smiled before walking out of her room and walked to the elevator. Pressing the button, someone walked through the door, but I didn't care to look back. If I was in danger the security guard was right there on point. "What you doing out here?" Dallas asked catching my attention. He's always in here now, I'm guessing the girls whose been braiding his hair and him became a couple. 'Cause nobody needed their hair braided that much unless you're cry baby ass Legacy. "Just coming from Jayde's house. Coming to see your boo?" I smirked which made him chuckle. "Mind ya business." I laughed and shook my head. The nerve of him calling me nosey. "Where Clementine though? I miss her. You got Legacy and her cool again and her ass just dropped Yoshi and me." Dallas said as we walked onto the elevator. "She's actually at work and he's at practice, but I'll let her know that you miss her." I smirked. Awwwe I totally forgot that she mentioned that they were her two headaches before I made her and Legacy make up. But now I felt bad, but I'll plan something for them tomorrow. "You better and you still holding out on niggas baby girl?" Dallas smirked. I laughed and acted as if I zipped my lips closed. "That was childish." He laughed which made me laugh. "I'll take that as a yes, but be good Kaylee." Dallas said as the elevator stopped on my floor. "You do the same." I smiled and walked off the elevator. Smiling even bigger seeing that Legacy was sitting in front of my room door with his head down. "They finally let you go?" I teased. Football season was been supposed to start, but since the Coach got sick they had to hold the season back until his replacement came. And today they dragged everyone on the team down to the gym. "Yeah yo it doesn't make no sense how tired I am." He groaned. "Awwwe soon you'll be wearing your uniform. At least its worth it." I giggled and tried helping him up, but only fell back on my butt. "Ouch!" I laughed while he picked me up with one hand. "You good?" He chuckled. "Yeah thanks, but how was practice?" I asked opening the door and we walked in. "Hard as hell, nigga Quentin was two seconds away from crying. This shit caught all of us off guard and you do know Roman is back on the team right?" Legacy asked dropping his bag and I pointed to the shower which made him laugh at me. He planned to spend the night in order to make up for skipping the day with me. But Clementine was on her way, so it wasn't that type of party. "Damn I can't even talk to you?" He frowned. I giggled and nodded my head 'yes'. "I'm sorry that was rude, let's sit on the carpet and tell me about what went on." I giggled and patted the carpet. "You being funny, but I'll go shower." He mumbled which made me laugh. I hopped up and ran after him while grabbing his hand. "I'm being serious Legacy." I whined which made him smirk. "Nah let me go shower and you better have a movie for us when I get out." He smirked. "Okay. No scary right?" I giggled. Legacy mugged me before shaking his head 'no'. "I know I was just making sure. Go shower." I smiled then walked away from the bathroom. Grabbing my four bags off of my bed, I placed them inside of my closet. After helping Jayde with her outfit, I couldn't resist picking out a couple of things. Then I went and ordered all three of us some Chinese food, changing into my thermal pajamas, I was ready for a Netflix and chill night. Scrolling through Netflix, I was indecisive on choosing either Brotherly Love or Streets, both movies were good and made in Philly. But I really didn't know what to choose, so I'll wait for Legacy and Clementine. Realizing that Roman hasn't texted me all day, I called him on Face Time. After a couple of rings, Shante answered with a smile. She looked so pretty with her purple hair braided in a goddess braid that were decorated by a white floral head band.
"Hey Shante. Where's Roman?" I smiled. He probably forced her to answer the phone being his usual petty self.
She looked over to her right with the look of 'what to do or say next?'. I already knew he was right there. I knew it with his petty ass.
"Roman I know that you're there, but anyways I don't feel like fighting with you over some boy. There's plenty of boys that'll catch my attention, but you'll always be my favorite. I don't like this possessive Roman that's been here since we got here. And when are you really ready to talk instead of putting Shante in between of this, I'll be here. Good night and oh Shante you look so pretty girl." I smiled.
"Thanks boo, I actually did it myself. Do you really like it?" She asked which made me laugh.
"Yeah, it fits you well. It looks like a crown, can I see your outfit. Sorry if I'm creeping you out, but that hair looks too cute." I explained which made her laugh uncontrollably.
"No. No. Its okay, here take this Romy." Shante said passing off the phone. I smirked as Roman hurried up and flipped the camera.
"Nobody wants to see you either sexy!" I laughed and focused on Shante's outfit. She did her thing, she was dressed in all white. Shante wore a deep cut v leotard, some white tight skinny jeans and all black rider boots that matched her black leather jacket. I so approved of that outfit. "Yessss Shante you look so pretty, but I'll let ya finish doing what ya was doing before I called." I sighed.
"Okay and thank you so much Kaylee. By the way is that your real hair?" Shante asked with bugged eyes. I laughed while nodding my head 'yes'.
"Yeah this all me and no I'm not mixed." I joked which made her laugh at me.
"Oh my god your hair is so long and full. What do you do to it to make it thick? And please don't say coconut oil because I'm allergic." Shante asked. I know Roman was sitting somewhere salty as fuck right now. He already knew what time it was when it came to discussing hair and clothes; I could talk for hours.
"Well I'm natural, two my hair is always braided up for a weave or some cornrows because that'll stop your hair from falling off and becoming uneven. Also wait three works or even more because you know when your hair is dirty it grows faster, so that's another thing I do. And always, always, always wear scarfs because that can also break off your hair." I explained while she she typed all of this down in her phone.
"Any more suggestions? I'm hooked." She giggled which made me laugh as well.
"I'll send you the links to ordering some good hair products as well, so get my number from Roman's phone and text me girl." I smiled.
"Okay talk to you later." She smiled. But my attention was all on Legacy. His ass purposely came out here just with a towel on with the water slowly sliding down his toned chest.

My World To Live
[Do Not Read this version, New FINAL version uploaded August 9th, 2021 as separate fiction, click to link here on RR. Essairyn had never felt truly alive on Earth. It felt like something was missing ever since she was born, but even after nearly 20 years of mundane living, she could never pinpoint what this or the emptiness in her heart was. Suddenly, she awakens in a grandiose, primordial forest and encounters both demons and spirits in a parallel world called Sol'h'meyr. She befriends, in particular, a sassy fox-spirit named Akari who just reincarnated after three millennia. Essairyn is an abnormal human with elemental powers, and Akari is being chased by those of her dark past. Together, they set out on an adventure in a world of magic, danger, mystery, and intrigue. But this not a game. That simple adventure is actually the modest beginnings in a chain of disruptions that tear even the dimensional fabric of time and space. No one, not even Essairyn, was who she thought she was. And not even the gods can change the destiny of the universes... A single promise shook eternity’s existence. — Fantasy || Adventure || Romance || Action || Mystery || Drama || Science Fiction — The My World To Live (MWTL) series, the alternative short name is Canaan, is comprised of three books symbolically named My World, To Live, and My World To Live. Two years prior, the entire story had been planned and detailed out from start to finish before actual writing. Thus, the story will never be dropped. While the genre is largely Fantasy, the book is comprised of many other elements including a School Life (Magic Academy) story portion. MWTL has a lot of scattered symbolism and allusions, hence, the mystery aspect. The science fiction elements progressively become more pronounced, and the slow romance is a late bloomer. The female lead is strong and independent, and her backstory and identity unravel as drivers of the plot. Expect lots of action/fighting throughout and scattered philosophical and psychological themes arising. It's a human journey to find the essence of one's living and purpose. What kind of world do I wish to live for? Any feedback is greatly appreciated. I hope to share the journey with you~! Canaan's Original and New Covers: If you're curious about my art and the various covers I made for this series and other authors, I have a RR thread that makes free covers and shows art processes. [October 1, 2020 Notice: Hello, I aplogize to all followers for suddenly taking an extended hiatus. Life threw a lot at my face and then the pandemic happened, so I hadn't been able to write until around the last month when I decided to challenge myself and finish the first book in this series. I am ok now, and thank you for your patience and understanding. No words can express how much every reader means to me. RR was the first writing platform that I ever felt accomplished to any small degree, so I am forever grateful to it. Multiples changes have been made since this final revision and writing of the ending, so please see the latest chapter detailing the update. This also includes my decision to submit this story to the 2020 Wattys contest (the deadline was Sept 30th). That means I will not be posting the updated version of this story on here until the contest is over (since I doubt I'll win anyway lol). And so, if you want to read the full, now completed (woohoo!) story, please go to my Wattpad. Thank you once again, and wishing you all the very best health and happiness! FINAL UPDATE, March 7, 2021: The complete story has been re-posted after the Wattys. This version that was on Wattys is the one being re-posted. However, the Final Version (which will be on a separate book from this to remain organized, and is technically the fifth version of the story xD) will be released May 2021. For more information, please read this update linked here. Thank you to all readers for taking this two year journey with me!
