Attention (Shawn Hunter x reader)

Pt 14

Shawn threw his arm around my shoulders as  soon as we started walking to history.

"What are you doing?" I asked laughing.

"What I can't hold my girlfriend as we walk to class?" He asked stretching out the word girlfriend.

Laughing, I tried to elbow him in the ribs, but was restricted by his hold. I grimaced and struggled but he simply held me tighter.

"Hey hey hey, no hitting your boyfriend!" Shawn said stopping and spinning me around.

"You love saying that don't you?" I said rolling my eyes. Why was he saying it so much? We're just fake dating, it doesn't matter right?

"Yeah" Shawn said. A smirk grew on his face and he wrapped his arms around my waist, pulling me into a kiss. After a few seconds of bliss he pulled away.

"W-what was that?" I asked, baffled and flustered. Shawn smirked again and glanced to his left. I followed his gaze and saw Becky, face bright red and eyes full of fury.

"Thanks" I whispered to Shawn. He winked and wrapped his arm back around my shoulders as we walked the rest of the way to history.

Shawn decided to spend our history class distracting me. He would play with my hair until I slapped his hands away. When he got bored of that he began pouring and groaning until I finally faced him.

"What do you want?" I whispered.

"Im bored" Shawn said stretching out the word.

"That's not my problem" I whispered back.

"Miss L/N. Mr Hunter. Is there an issue?" Mr Feeney's voice came from the front of the classroom.

"No sir, I was just telling Shawn to shut up" I said turning back around.

"Rude" Shawn said with a hand over his heart.

"Get over it Mr Hunter" Feeney responded for me, causing me to smile.

My next classes went smoothly, mostly because I didn't have them with Shawn. When I had my next class with both him and Cory I noticed they were sitting on opposite sides of the room. I desperately wanted to ask them what happened, but Cory reached me first.

"You!" He yelled dramatically pointing a finger at me. "This is all your fault!"

"I'm sorry what is all my fault?" I asked pushing his hand back down where it belongs.

"Why would you date my best friend?!" Cory asked.

I let out a chuckle and relaxed. So they weren't actually fighting, this was about the fake dating. Cory either doesn't know or is playing along.

"No Cory we're-" I started but Cory didn't want to hear it.

"I don't care what you're doing! That's my best friend and you're my cousin! You two are barely supposed to interact! That's like if I went out with... who are you even friends with? Topanga?" Cory's face was starting to turn red.

"Please date Topanga" I responded, causing Cory to huff and sit down.

So, apparently, Shawn never old him about our little joke and he thinks all of this is real. I really didn't want to deal with that, Shawn and I will just explain to him later.

After school I found Shawn standing by his locker.

"So when do you wanna talk Cory that this is just to get back at Becky?" I asked him.

"Never" He responded, leaving me top flabbergasted to respond. "Why is Cory so mad anyway? Why does it matter that I'm dating you, even if it's fake, if I'm happy? What if I actually did want to be with you, huh? Would Cory make me choose?" Shawn was actually upset over the situation.

I immediately wrapped him up in a hug. When I felt him relax I let go and we sat on the floor.

"Sorry Cory's being a dick. I'm hoping he's just in shock and will be more reasonable later. Besides, I'm sure whatever girl makes Shawn Hunter actually want to be with her will be too special for Cory to disapprove" I said as Shawn leaned his head on my shoulder.

"Yeah, we'll see" was all he responded.
