Best Friends

Chapter 2

Sam's POV----

"Shawn? Did you get number 6?" I asked frustrated.
"Yeah, I got 74." He says looking up from his math homework.
"Thanks." I marked it on my paper.
I'm awful at Math. It's so hard. I don't get it.
In middle and elementary school it was easy. But now I'm in geometry....it's hard.

-ding- the bell went off.

"Lunch!" Shawn packs up his things and runs to the cafeteria.
I'm slowly walking behind him.
He does this every day. He saves me a spot.

Liz, Shawn, and I sit at a circle table near the lunch line.
Liz and I open our lunch boxes and get out a ham & cheese sandwich, Doritos, and yogurt.
Shawn comes back from the lunch line with a hamburger, fries, ice cream, and chips. Healthy. Haha not.
"You hungry?" I ask sarcastically to Shawn.
"A little." He winks.

Then I feel someone brush my back.
I turn around to see Hannah.
Hannah is OBSESSED with Shawn.
It disgusts me. I don't know why. It just does.
"Hey Shawn!" She practically yells in my ear.
"Hi Hannah." He replies not even looking up from his food.
Guys are so clueless.
I kick his shin.
"Ouch!" He screams.
"Get rid of her." I mouth to Shawn so she couldn't see me.
"So, what are you doing tonight Shawn?" She asks. Then gives me a dirty look.
"Hanging with them." He smirks.
Her smile fades. "Oh, I thought you might want to go get fro-yo with my friends and I." She flips her hair.
"Sorry, maybe another time." He says.
Her face gets super red and then walks away.
"Ew." I scoff.
"She's not that bad. She's a cheerleader with me." Liz says.
"Whatever. I just don't like her. Okay?" I got a little sassy. I confess.
"Okay, it's whatever. I have to go talk with Mr. Johnson about my project. See you guys later." Shawn left. Then Liz and I left.

*********

"Where is she?" I started to get impatient.
Liz was 20 minutes late.
"I don't know. Probably talking with her boyfriend." Shawn said not looking up from his phone.
"True. I'll call her." I grab my phone out of my backpack.

Me: Hey? Where are you?
Liz: Oh, hey. Sorry! My locker wouldn't open so I'm in the office getting a key. I'll just come to your house around 5?
Me: okay, sounds good.

"We can go. She's coming at 5." I say.
"Okay, let's go." We started walking to his car.

-ding-
My phone goes off. It might be Isaac!
I texted him 4th period for "homework help" but usually he doesn't take the time to respond :/
I'll read you the texts:
Me: hey, did you get number 8 on page 76?
Isaac: nope.

THATS IT???? Ugh!!!!!

"Shawn?" I ask.
"Yep." He looked at me.
"How do you know if a guy likes you?" I blurt out with no regrets. Shawn's my best guy friend. He must know! HE'S A GUY!

"They text you, hang out with you, they want to know what you're up too." He replies.
"Then I'M SCREWED!" I sprint to the jeep and get in.
"Wait, why?" He looked concerned while starting the car.
"Isaac doesn't do any of that." I was frustrated and just wanted a snack.
"You wanna get fro-yo?" He winks.
"Finally! Something good." I smirk.

We walk in and see Hannah sitting there with some of her girl friends. FRICK! I forgot she was coming here.
"Is it too late to run?" I whisper to Shawn.
"Shawn! I thought you couldn't make it!" Hannah starts walking our way.
"Wait, hold up. Are you two a thing?" She points towards Me & Shawn.
Shawn and I look at each other.
"No-" I start.
"Yep, were dating." Shawn wraps his arms around me.
WHAT THE HECK IS HE DOING??
Oh shoot. Butterflies swarm my stomach.
"Oh, really? You two are cute. See ya around." Hannah waved and then went back to her table.
"What the heck was that?" I push his arms off of me.
"She's driving me crazy. Can we keep this act up for just a little bit?" He puts his hands together and pleads like a little boy.
"We'll talk about this later. Let's get some fro-yo to go!" I walk towards the cookies & cream.

-------

"Then Shawn, wraps his arms around me." I explain everything Liz.
"Really? What were you thinking?" Liz yells.
"I wanted to get Hannah off my back." Shawn says taking a bite of fro-yo.
"Uh-oh." I say biting my lip, looking down at my phone.
"What?" Shawn looks over my shoulder.
"We're all over our school's Twitter." I reply.
"The Two BFF's dating?? Is the headline." I add.
"Cool. It'll keep Hannah off my back." Shawn says spinning in his chair.
"What about Isaac?" I start to get mad.
"And Isaac will get jealous." Shawn points out.
"Maybe. Whatever. Just for a little bit. At school." I agree. Maybe Isaac will get jealous.
