MALEAH

12:30 pm

Bryce told me that there's someone at Sway that I would love to meet and honestly, im kinda surprised for a new face.

"We were supposed to be there at eleven I think babe." Bryce says putting Gianna in the car. "You woke me up at eleven thirty... was I supposed to wake you up?" I ask him now annoyed that he woke me up late. "I don't know, but you look good all pink and stuff." He says kissing my cheek. I feel like im not gonna like this person that im about to meet.

"So, who am I meeting?" I asked him. "Someone" He says. "Bryce." I say glaring at him. "It's a surprise." He laughs. "Gianna, did you see anyone new yesterday at Sway?" I ask her looking in the rear view window. "Yeah." She says. This is why I love children they tell it all. "Boy or girl?" I asked. " Boy and Girl." She says. "Ohh a boy and a girl, you didn't tell me that." I say driving faster. Bryce placed his hand over mines. "Slow...Down, remember you have your child in the car." He says looking at me. I sighed and slowed down. "Who is it?" I asked. "You'll see." He says laughing. Oh Jesus Christ i'm getting know where with him.

"Bryce, I said Eleven fifteen, now close to one." A unfamiliar voice says. "Is that the girl?" I say walking into the house. "Welcome home mom, we have missed you." Jaden says standing at the table with Noah and two people I didn't recognize. "Hi, son ive missed you too." I say putting Giannas bag down on the table and hugged Jaden. "Who's this?" I whispered to him. "Oh...Bryce didn't tell you?" He says. I shook my head. "Cam and Marie Ross, nice to finally meet you." Marie says holding out her hand. I looked at her hand and back at her. "She doesn't shake hands..." Jaden says putting her hand down. I'm gonna kick Bryce's ass. "You seem lost for words Mal, you okay?" Noah smirks. "Quiet Beck." I say glaring at him. "Oh, looks like you guys have meet..." Bryce says coming into the kitchen. "Did I miss it?" Mary says coming in as well. "Either of you guys didn't mention to tell me about this?" I asked Bryce and Mary while pointing at Cam and Marie. "Surprise?" They both say. I flipped them both off and looked that this messed up couple.

"Look, we know you mean business behind these boys, I get it. We mean strictly business." Cam says stepping up to me. "You wanna talk business? Lets talk business. Conference room your not their assistant yet." I say walking to the back. "She is scary" I hear Cam say behind me. "Yeah" The boys replied.

I sat down at the head of the table because why not and waited for everyone to flow in. Gianna came in and sat on my lap. "Oh, this must be Gianna" Marie says going to touch her. I rolled the chair back. "Anyways, why do you wanna work for them?" I sau looking at them. "Maleah..." Bryce says. "I'm serious i need a deadass answer we are definitely not professionals here look at us. We are the fun of Dysfunctional" I say shrugging. "Bryce and Vinnie have the big boxing match coming up and you they can't actually fight if they don't have an actual assistant." Cam says. "You told me that you didn't need one" I say looking at Bryce. "News Flash he was gonna put you as his assistant" Griffin says. "Bryce... did you forget that i was i don't know don't pregnant?!" I yell. "Thank youuu" Griffin says. "Griffin shut up please" I say rubbing my face. "We don't need for you to agree on a new assistant." Noah says. I looked at him and just stared at him because he is just an annoying leech at this point. Go kiss that dude you're with or something.

"Okay, i don't know if you guys are just gullible or just lazy but i want you guys to think long and hard about the last couple that came into our lives what happened ?" I say biting my nail. "We almost lost her" Bryce says. i pointed at him. "We almost got the house taken away" Jaden says. I pointed at him. "We were stalked as well you guys Maleah especially" Mary says. "Still getting stalked i might add" I say looking at her "What?" She asked. I nodded. "We'll talk later" I say. "But, do you guys not see the red flags im not seeing?" I laughed. "Maleah we know that you love... some of the boys and we don't want to take anything from them but keep up with what this man started." Cam says. Cam means business, Marie on the other hand...  i don't known
