Chapter One

Hanging Out With The Squad

Bro, I’m so bored. Shauna whined to her brother while ruffling her hair.

There’s barely ever anything to do over the weekends.

Call up your friends. Shawn recommended. Not taking his eyes off his gameplay of 2k18.

“You always say that to me bro.”

Then soon as we get to the point of going out of the house, you start getting overly protective.

Shauna remarked crossing her arms arrogantly at Shawn.

*Shawn glances over at Shauna*

All right, all right. I admit, that I am a bit overprotective of you sis. I won’t do it this time.

I promise. He stated putting up his pinky as evidence before Shauna’s eyes.

*Shauna sits down beside her brother on the sofa*

Don’t go back on your words later.

Shauna stated locking her pinky with her brother’s in an agreement.

Sure. I won’t. Shawn stated turning back his attention to the tv screen as he continued playing 2k17 like the game-freak he was.

*Shauna’s inner thoughts*

Boy would Jungkook and Shawn get along with one another had they met.

Shauna mused to herself. Then I would have two knuckle-heads I would be bickering with back and forth all the time.

Shauna admitted to herself mentally smiling.

*Ring* *Ring*

*Don’t Stop*

(Call coming from Britt💕)

Shauna’s phone starts going off, to the tune of Jaebum’s song “Turn off your Phone (Remix)” Ft. ELMO

“Hello?”

Shauna said into the speaker.

“Hey, what’s up what are you up to?” Britt asked.

“Nothing much.”

Bored as usual. I’m ready for the semester to start. I’m ready to feel a pencil between my fingers, and paper in front of me.

“Argh, girl you’re such a spoilsport.” Britt remarked clicking her tongue at Shana.

“Whatever, Britt.” Anyways what did you call for? I asked her.

“Well, I called because I was trying to see if you’d like to come kick it, with Hakeem & Brice with me.”

We’re planning to go to that brand-new skating rink that just opened up last month, then afterwards hangout at the mall, might buy some merchandise even. Britt stated

“Ooh, count me in!” I exclaimed rushing up the stairs to my room, to get ready.

“SWEET!” See you soon then Britt said in response before asking me “Hey, Shauna do you think Shawn would like to tag along?” After all he is best friends with Hakeem.

“Hmm, let me see.” I’ll message you, his response. He’s down there playing that darn “2k18" again, I retorted.

“Aigoo, this boy in that blasted “2k18” Britt retorted. That game needs to shut down on him for a week. He seriously has “No Life” Britt stated laughing softly.

“I know right, he doesn’t have a “Life” I stated agreeing with her wholeheartedly about my brother in that blasted 2k18 he’s been playing none-stop ever since he got it.

“Well, anyways.” I’ll let you go. I gotta get ready. See you in 20 minutes, dress sharp. Girlie. We have a fun night ahead of us tonight. Britt cooed.

“Okay, I will keep that in mind.” See you soon Britt.

[20 minutes later]

Shauna emerged out of her bedroom, fully dressed up in camouflage cargo’s along, with an all-black wife beta that had a gold chain dangling from her neck, as well as gold bracelets hanging from her wrists.

Stepping in front of her walk-in closet she opened the double doors then quickly went inside, as she was in search of her all-black converse highs.

“Finally,” she huffed locating them on top of her rack, after she spent 5mins looking for them.

After successfully adorning them, she decided she didn’t really want to style her hair. She opted for putting them into twin odango’s, leaving her baby hairs gelled down to the side. While she curled her edges, and left them dangling giving off a chic look to her edgy appearance.

(Call coming from Britt💕)

“Hello.”

“I’m outside, waiting. Did you ask your brother if he wanted to come?

“Oh, snap.” I didn’t let me quickly ask him.

“Alright, let me know his answer afterwards.”

“Okay, sure thing.”

(Call with Britt💕 has ended)

“Hey! Shawn do you want to hang out with both Britt and I along with Brice and Hakeem?” I asked running down the stairs, with my purse dangling off my right shoulder.

“Yeah! Give me a moment.”

He surprisingly answered back. Leaving me standing there bewildered. The Shawn, that I know would never turn off his PS4 for a get together. Last, I heard, “2K18 was life”, was what he told me when he declined hanging out with us last weekend.

“What changed now.”

I mentally asked myself.

Before ultimately coming to the reason.

Reason being, me.

This boy is too protective.

😓😓😓😓

[Shawn walks over]

“I’m ready let’s go he told me, as he now sported khaki cargo’s along with an all-white wife beta, accompanied by his white vest and a pair of high-top air forces. He adorned a white snapback that said “Bo$$” on top of his curly brown locks. He recently let grow out, instead of cutting it down low into a fade for a change.

[Shauna pulls out her cell]

(New Message to Britt💕)

“He’s coming, we about to head out the door now.”

Try not to drool too much over him, I know you feeling my bro.

I teased her.

(New Message From: Britt💕)

“Oh, shut up” 😅

Anyways, I’m (😨) that he’s coming with us for a change. He always turns down offers like this. She texted me ending her sentence with the (🤔) emoji.

(New Message to Britt💕)

“I know right.” Tell me about it, is he on something. I’m almost scared to ask, this boy never stops gameplay to hang-out with us a day in his life, unless that is he’s in a bad mood then he wants to accompany us.

[Sitting inside Britt’s car]

About time, she said as both Shawn and I climbed into her maroon colored “2008 Honda Hatchback”

“Oh, shut up.”

I remarked smirking at her, as she ran her hands through her short-styled bob that had highlights of light brown running through her naturally dark brown hair.

“No, you did not just tell me to shut up.” She stated feigning ignorance as she stopped at the red light.

“Yeah, I just did.”

Rolling my eyes playfully at her.

“You better be glad that I -

She began to say right as her phone went off

(Call from Brice👏🏽)

“Yo, where y’all at?” we’ve been waiting outside the rink for a minute now.

“We about to pull up in the lot now.” Come outside Britt said, placing her phone on the phone holder and connecting it through Bluetooth.

“Alright, see y’all soon.” Brice said.

Due to the Bluetooth being connected his voice echoed around the car sounding every bit like Britt had “surround sound” installed in the car.

“Gosh, it’s about time.”
