Shawn's POV
I walked into Starbucks and I took my phone out opening the messages. I read through them and found the name of the drink.
I walked up to the counter.
"Welcome to Starbucks, how may I help you?"
"Hi, may I have-" I started then looked at my phone. "A venti Mango Dragon Fruit Lemonade."
"Sure, what's the name?"
"Carter."
I paid for the drink and went to the side to wait for it. This is the usual Starbucks I go to so I don't have to worry about too many people.
"Carter!"
I stepped to the counter and grabbed my drink. I left out the store and I saw Vince.
"Chanel got you drinking those too?" He asked when I dapped him up.
"Yeah, her and Ciera. You getting something?" I asked.
"Nah, I had smoothies with Dre before I dropped him off at camp." He said.
I nodded and we began walking.
"How's Chanel?" I asked.
"She has her moments still."
"Did y'all tell Andre?"
"Not yet. Chanel wants to make sure she's okay before we tell him." He said.
I nodded. "Okay, how are you?"
He looked at me and shrugged.
"I've been through it. I get it." I said.
He nodded. "It's just we didn't know so it wasn't like I was expecting anything you know. I was, am sad but of course Chanel is taking it harder. As crazy as it is she told me even though she was further along last time this one hurt worse."
I nodded. "I can see that. I know her past relationship ended toxic but with you she's happy. Andre's happy and that's all I care about."
"So you wouldn't mind if we got married?" He asked and I stopped walking.
"Not now." He said laughing. "In the future. Chanel wants to be thirty."
"Oh." I nodded and we kept walking. "Honestly, I wouldn't mind. You're a good influence on her cause you know how she can get. You stepped up to be a Father to Andre and I thank you for that."
"Andre and Chanel a package deal and she made that very clear when everything was going down." He said.
"Well you have my blessing whenever you decide to purpose." I said.
"I appreciate that." Vince said and dapped me up. "Also Andre's birthday is coming up and he wants to see the whole Harry Potter World in Orlando so I was thinking we can make it a family thing to get Chanel out of her mood."
I nodded. "Just tell me which weekend and I'll run it by Bey. I'm sure we can make that happen."
He nodded and we continued to walk and talk.

Damien's POV
I was sleeping peacefully when I felt someone shaking me.
"Damien, your phone." I heard Rachel say.
I rolled over and grabbed my phone and blindly answered.
"Hello?" I answered groggily.
"Hey, have you heard from Devon?"
"Ma? What time is it?" I asked.
"It's nine. I've been calling your brother for a couple days and he hasn't been answering. His ass is ignoring me." She said.
