*Shane's POV*
By the time I had woken up, Lisa was already gone. I mean, i wasn't that disappointed, but Joey was coming over to do a collab today. It sounds cheesy but I want to be alone when he gets here. No awkward "hellos" between her and Joey. I glanced at the clock on my wall; it was only ten. Joey wouldn't be coming until around two so I slowly got ready for the day. Corny was asleep on the couch and woke up just when I walked into the kitchen.
"Hiya corny!!" I said in my snooty white girl voice.
Corny sat back down and put her face on the pillows, when I heard someone say, "That dirty slut."
*Joey's POV*
I knew I wasn't supposed to be at Shane's until two but it was noon; I couldn't wait anymore! His door was almost always unlocked so I figured I would just come in and hope for the best! Shane was already dressed anyways so its not like I saw anything. When I spoke, Shane turned around, stifling a laugh.
"I thought I could come over a bit earlier so we could get ready for the challenge!"
Shane lazily walked over to me and just hugged me. We hadn't done much in terms of physical contact after "Dare the Dawson," because I guess it got awkward after. He smelled good, his tight grip around my back felt... Like it was meant to be there. I laughed, embarrassingly, and hugged him back. A few moments later, we broke the hug.
"I was thinking about doing the 'WTF is in my mouth challenge, cos' ya know, I stick things in my mouth ALL the time," Shane said with a smile. This got me laughing again and this time my face got way too red.
*Shane's POV*
I loved it when Joey laughed. I loved seeing him happy. His face afterward was just so adorable, and this coming from another guy means something.
"Costco or Dollar General?" He asked.
"Uh I think Dollar General would have some weird ass shit to be puttin' in my mouth so lets go to Costco."
"Ok just let me get some food, you want any?"
"Shoot boy, yeah!"
After a bite of lunch we went out to the parking lot where Joey offered to drive us in Satsuki, his car. Just as we were getting out of the lot, a Panic at the Disco sing came on, and Joey started singing along. Very quietly at first but he gradually got louder until he was belting the chorus. I started laughing and so did he, just as we were parking. he looked at me and leaned his forehead on my shoulder, still laughing. I wanted to kiss him then and there.
"Come on Joey," I was still half laughing when I nudged him. He looked back up and wiped his eyes then followed me in. We split up, so we wouldn't see what each other were buying. Thirty minutes later I had all of my things and paid. I got a text from Joey saying he was waiting in the car and when I went out of the store I saw him, still singing to the radio. I would be embarrassed if anyone else did that while with me but with Joey, as long as he was comfortable, so was I. The car ride home was the same as the one to Costco; Joey singing and me wanting him even more. I've known I was bisexual for awhile now, three years? I just never told anyone because I was afraid of how they would react. The only person I had ever told was my mom. Cos' Mama Dawson so chill wit dat stuff. Of course she was understanding, and she swore not to tell anyone if I didn't want her to.
*Joey's POV*
We pulled into the lot to Shane's place and he was smiling out the window.
"What?" I asked.
"Oh nothing,"
He was still smiling but grabbed his shopping bag. I grabbed mine and half skipped-half walked to catch up with him. We talked about other youtubers: Sawyer, Tyler, the usual. Shane went in first and held the door for me. I accidentally touched his hand when I grabbed the door but he didn't even flinch. I smiled to myself, he didn't move away. He grabbed a water bottle out of his fridge and shuffled to the hallway to his room.
