The Boy Wars

Chapter 5

"What do you mean Drake is your cousin?" I yell at Shanya. It's been two weeks and we've become really close friends.
"His mum and my dad are siblings. Since my parents boarded me over to the states I've had to bloody live with him since high school began!" She yells at me. Honestly she knew I liked him and all, so why did she kelp something this big away from me?
"You could've told me this when we first met!"
"How was I supposed to know you bloody like him? And how would've I told you? You can't just go 'hey I live with the most popular boy In school' and expect people to be cool with it!" She yells back. I sigh in exhaust and she rolls her dark brown eyes.

"You're right Shanya." I say and soon Michael comes up and politely smiles at us.
"Hi Shanya."
"Hey Preppie." She responds and I giggle. She was using 'Saved By The Bell' (for all you people that don't appreciate good TV, that's a show that aired the late 80's to mid 90's.).

"I wish you didn't call me that." He states politely and Shanya rolls her chocolate eyes.

"And I wish for a one way ticket back to England, but we don't always get what we want, do we?" She shoots back and Michael sighs.

"You're hopeless." He says and she lays her forehead on his, and smiles a beautiful smile.

"You love it." She whispers.

"I still don't know why, you're my complete opposite."

"Opposites attract." She murmurs back and they begin to lean in for a kiss when Kyle interrupts.

"USE PROTECTION SHANYA!" He yells and she regains her senses and pushes Michael away.

"You idiot!" She says back and runs up to Kyle. She playfully hits him in the chest and the two laugh. It was beyond amazing how Shanya was with boys. She treated her guy friends like a boyfriend, but her crushes like a friend. She was weird but an amazing friend, I admired her for that.

"Um..." Michael says and Kyle looks at him, trying not to laugh.

"What do you want nerd?" He asks him.

"Well Shanya, we can go over science tomorrow, I can see you two are already making chemistry." He says and points to Kyle. So. Michael leaves and it looks like Shanya has been hit with a freight train.

"Um sorry guys, I've got to go." She says and runs off, nowhere to be found.
