Part 8

"So what camp you want?" Beyoncé asked.

"I don't wanna go to camp." Messiah said.

Beyoncé sat in the kitchen with Messiah looking for camps for him after breakfast.

"So you wanna be in the house all summer? You need to do something." She said.

"Why can't I just be with you?"

"You don't wanna be in the studio with me all day." He said.

"Yes, I do." He said.

Beyoncé shook her head.

"No."

"But why? I can get better at singing. Please, please, please, please." Messiah said going on and on.

"Okay, okay." Beyoncé said. "Jesus, fine."

"Thanks." He said smiling. "But I gotta ask you something."

Beyoncé sat her phone down and looked at him.

"Can I get one of those sky walk things?" He asked.

"A what?" She asked confused.

"It's what everybody got. They be rolling around on them."

"Who is everybody?" Beyoncé asked.

She hadn't seen anybody riding around with them things in Texas.

"T.I kids got it."

"Those are famous children." Beyoncé said.

"I'm famous." He said.

"Where? To who?"

"Mama, please." He begged.

"No, go get my keys." She said standing from off the stool. "And you think I'm about to buy you something with the way you showed your behind last night. Nope."

Messiah handed her the keys. He followed her out the house. They got in the car and Messiah remained mute. Beyoncé showed up at Shawn's studio and they got out the car. Beyoncé saw cars parked and went inside. There was a receptionist.

"Hi, I'm looking for Shawn." Beyoncé said.

"Yes, Shawn is in Studio D right down the hall, last door on the left."

"Thank you." Beyoncé said as they walked down the hall.

They walked into the studio and Shawn was in there. The lights were dim and he was playing on the keyboard. He noticed Beyoncé walk in with Messiah behind her.

"Hey." He said standing.

He walked over to hug her.

"Hey Messiah." Shawn said.

Messiah went to go sit down.

"He said hi Messiah, speak." Beyoncé said to him.

"Hey." He said lowly sitting down.

Shawn looked at her.

"He's mad or whatever." She said shrugging.

They walked over towards the board.

"Okay, so can you play the track?" She asked.

Shawn played the track and for an hour or so they went back and forth changing the melody to go with track and Shawn added a few beats to it to bring it out.

"Yeah, that's it." Beyoncé said smiling.

"Yeah?" Shawn said.

"Yeah."

Beyoncé smiled looking back and then a frown appeared. She looked and didn't see Messiah. Shawn noticed her gaze and looked around and didn't see Messiah.

"He couldn't have gotten far." Shawn said standing.

Beyoncé stood and then they left out the studio to check the other studios. They walked in one.

"Aye, Omari, Tyran, y'all seen a kid, light skin?" Shawn asked.

"Nah." They said.

Beyoncé and Shawn left out the studio and kept looking around. They ended up splitting up and Beyoncé ended up in the back outside where there was a basketball court and there was Messiah dribbling a ball.

"Come here!" Beyoncé said.

Messiah dropped the ball and walked over slow. When he came in to reach Beyoncé grabbed him.

"Why would you leave without saying something?" Beyoncé fussed. "We walking around looking for you. What were you thinking?"

"I got bored sitting in there." He said. "I'm sorry I scared you."

Beyoncé sighed.

"Don't do it again. You sit in there and you stay got it."

"Yes." He said.

Beyoncé opened the door and they went back inside. They went back towards the studio and Shawn was in there.

"Where'd you find him?" Shawn asked.

"The court out back."

Shawn nodded as they sat down.

"Can we get some food, I'm hungry." Messiah said.

"Ask my receptionist for some menus." Shawn said.

Messiah stood.

"And come back." Beyoncé said.

Shawn laughed as he left out. Messiah came back with some menus and they ordered some Chinese food. Omari and Tyran joined them for lunch. Beyoncé found out that Omari was a producer and Tyran was Shawn's cousin but they called him Ty Ty. Soon someone walked in the studio.

"What up Malik." Shawn said.

"Hey yall, Syd, come on!" Malik yelled.

Soon a girl around the age of fourteen walked in. Her hair was in a bun and she wore sweats and Jordan slides.

"Syd!" Messiah yelled.

"What up boy!" She said smiling walking over.

Beyoncé noticed her braces.

Syd hugged Messiah.

"Syd, this is-"

"Oh shit, you Beyoncé!" Syd said holding her chest.

"Sydney!" Shawn, Ty Ty and Malik said.

Beyoncé and Omari laughed.

"My fault but you ain't say nothing about knowing Beyoncé." She said and then turned to Beyoncé. "I'm sorry Queen have my cousins been bothering you? I know how they can be."

Beyoncé laughed.

"No their fine. Nice to meet you though." Beyoncé said.

"The pleasure is mine. Your last album B-Day. It was my everything." Syd gushed. "Who's egg roll?"

"Mine." Ty Ty said.

"Thanks." She said grabbing it. "Messiah, you gotta get me caught up."

They went to sit on the couch and talk.

"Sorry about her she's a bit much-" Shawn started.

"Team too much." Malik said and Beyoncé laughed. "I don't think we've met I'm Malik but you can call me Bleek."

"Beyoncé." She said shaking his hand.

"Sorry again." Shawn said.

"No it's cool, she's high spirited. I like it." Beyoncé said.

"More like bad as hell." Ty Ty said.

"No, she's so sweet." Beyoncé said.

All the boys laughed and shook their head. They figured Beyoncé would have to really get to know Sydney Carter. They'll see what she would have to say after a month.

The Next Day

The house-

"This one is a Mediterranean style Villa home built with attention to detail & craftsmanship." The realtor said as they walked through the door. "Gourmet island kitchen with stainless steel appliance package. Hardwoods in living areas, bedrooms & game room. Semi-spiral staircase with iron railings. Two balconies. Stamped concrete driveway & private entry gate."

Beyoncé walked through with Shawn behind her. Messiah and Sydney walked behind Shawn. This house was amazing and Beyoncé was glad she didn't have to worry about a yard. They toured the whole house and Beyoncé couldn't find a flaw.

"Messiah, you like it?" Beyoncé asked.

"Yeah plus grandma not that far away." He said.

Beyoncé nodded and smiled. She then looked at the realtor.

"Should I get the paperwork?" The realtor asked.

"Yes, I would like to buy."

The realtor left and went to get the paperwork.

"Bomb ass crib Bey." Sydney said.

"Syd." Shawn said.

"What?"

"Watch your mouth." He said.

Syd smacked her teeth.

"Syd, come on. Let's figure out how this game room gonna look." Messiah said.

"Who said you was getting a game room?" Beyoncé said.

Messiah looked at her and just blinked. Sydney and Messiah went up stairs.

"That's your son." Shawn said laughing.

"Ha ha ha." Beyoncé said and went to look out the window.

The house had a beautiful view of Houston. Shawn walked up behind her. She leaned back on him.

"You sure you don't wanna look anywhere else?" Shawn asked.

"Yes, I like it and Messiah likes it. His new schools not that far and all my family is close by."

He nodded.

"I wanna take you out again." Shawn said.

"When?" She asked turning around smiling.

"Whenever you wanna go." He said.

She smiled.

"I'm really feeling you." Beyoncé said looking up at him.

"Word?" Shawn said.

"You already knew that." She said.

"Yeah I did." He said smiling.

"Don't you have something to say?" She asked.

"What?"

She just looked at him and Shawn laughed.

"I'm feeling you too." He said. "I like being with you and around you."

Beyoncé smiled.

"Thank you."

"Yeah." He said and kissed her on the lips.

Soon the realtor came back in and Beyoncé signed the papers. Now to buy furniture and move in.
