brandon

yara

she shrugged

zoey knocked on the door that zion had opened. and they instantly gave each other hugs and he introduced her to the guys. he waved to brandon.

brandon

yara

she said fiddling with her fingers

brandon got out the car and yara rolled down her window.

brandon

zoey

she shook his hand

nick

zoey

she looked at yara deviously

edwin

he said sensing the awkwardness

they all got in the car

zoey
omg yara it's been so long-

yara
zoey you can stop with the bullshit. you know we don't fuck with each other stop.
she said looking at her through the rear view mirror. the guys covered the mouths and eyes. sometimes her boldness was shocking.

zoey

she said

yara laughed and the tension in the car could be cut with a knife

brandon

zoey
nope, i'm looking forward to it though. i'm just happy to be spending time with z. it's been so long.

zion

zion knew exactly why yara doesn't like zoey. but bestfriend code made him not say anything.

edwin
so what's with the hostility. you got beef with my girl yara or what.
he asked genuinely interested

zoey
no i don't, even though i should.

yara laughed

zoey
what's so funny yara?

yara
i'm so close from pulling this car over and beating your ass zoey. keep on.
she warned

brandon

he turned up the volume on the music

zion and edwin sat in the back looking out both windows and zoey was fixated on yara and brandon.
