—4. Cory's Alternative Friends
NEW FEELINGSSCARLETT WAS sitting on the couch in her and Shawn's trailer, playing the guitar. She always had a passion for music and anything that had to do with it.
She learnt how to play when she was 11 years old by watching tapes of rock bands at concerts.
Her favourite bands as of right now are Nirvana, The Sex Pistols and Alice In Chains.
Shawn went straight to Cory's after school, he mentioned something about Cory having a 'nerf head' whatever that meant. And, also needing hair straightening products.
Scarlett didn't question them, they were always doing weird things like that together. She's grown to just accept whatever stories Shawn ends up bringing home to share with her.
It's not like her and Eric aren't the same.
CORY AND SHAWN had attempted at straightening Cory's hair. It had yet to work.
"So, should this stuff be burning?" Cory asked nervously, walking out of the bathroom with Shawn right behind him.
"Why, is it burning?" Shawn asked.
Cory stopped in his tracks, turning to face Shawn, "No. I'm just trying to make conversation, 'cause we never really get to talk." He said sarcastically.
Shawn rolled his eyes, "How bad's it burning?"
"Call your sister. Ask her if my ears should feel like throbbing jalapeños." Cory demeaned.
Shawn walked over to the phone, dialling the home phone at the trailer, "Hi, Lettie. It's me."
"Hey, Shawnie. What's up?" Scarlett asked through the phone.
"Listen, Cory wants to know if that stuff you sent over should be burning." Shawn questioned.
"Burning? It's a straightening product, not bleach." Scarlett answered, now slightly concerned for Cory.
"Oh, so that's a no?" Shawn asked.
"Hurting! Hurting now!" Cory shouted in pain.
"How long has it been burning?" Scarlett questioned.
Shawn moved the phone away from his mouth to talk to Cory, "Lettie wants to know how long it's been burning?"
"40, 45 minutes." Cory shrugged.
"45 minutes." Shawn told Scarlett, who's eyes widened.
"Shawn, I'm going to rip my head off!" Cory screamed in pain and frustration.
"Oh, my God. You should have washed that off 45 minutes ago! Do you ever read the instructions!" Scarlett face palmed, it probably wasn't a good idea to let two 11 year old boys try something like this by themselves.
Shawn moved the phone away from his lips again, "Lettie says you should have washed it out 45 minutes ago." He informed Cory.
"AAH!" Cory screamed, rushing over to the bathroom.
"Why did you guys leave it in so long? What did you think would happen?" Scarlett asked, rolling her eyes.
"Lettie says you shouldn't have left in it so long." Shawn repeated what Scarlett said to Cory.
"Why didn't you two idiots read the label? that's what it's there for." Scarlett added.
"Lettie says why didn't you two idiots read the label?" Shawn yelled before pausing, "Oh, Thanks, Lettie." He said sarcastically.
"You're very welcome. Come home soon, I'm making dinner. Love you." Scarlett informed, but before she hung up she heard a very high-pitched scream, she knew came from Cory.
