Protection (Shoey)

Chapter 8- Crushes

Chapter 8- Crushes

Shane's POV

Joey: Shane, babe, wake up.

I forced my eyes open at the sound of Joey whispering in my ear.

So much better than Lisa screaming her head off at me.

I turn over and we lock eyes. He smiles and I do too. He grabs my hips and pulls me closer to him. Right before our lips connect the door flies open.

Sawyer: Good morning guys.

Joey mutters something under his breath then smiles at Sawyer.

Joey: Good morning.

Sawyer: I'm making breakfast. Did you guys want something?

Joey: I can make my own breakfast.

He glared at Sawyer. When did he become so cold with Sawyer?

Sawyer: Fine. Shane do you want anything?

Shane: I-

Joey: We're going out. So make your own breakfast. We're fine.

Sawyer: Alright.

Sawyer smiles at me then leaves. I return the smile and turn to Joey.

Shane: What was that about?

Joey: Huh?

Shane: You and Sawyer. You were acting a bit cold to him.

Joey: Nothing. It's like this sometimes.

Shane: Ok. As long as everything is fine.

He leans in to kiss me again. Right before our lips meet Sawyer knocks on the door again.

Joey: What Sawyer?!

Sawyer: Cat is here.

Joey: Cat?

Sawyer: You two were doing a collab. Remember?

Joey: Yeah. Ok tell her I'll be down in 5 minutes.

Sawyer: Ok.

Sawyer leaves again. Joey gets up and goes to the bathroom to do what I assume is styling his hair.

I lay back and close my eyes. I cuddle into the blankets. Then I hear the door creak open.

Cat: Oh Joey... Where ar- Shane?!

I look over to the doorway. Cat is there dressed up very slutty. I ignore her and bury myself deeper into the blankets.

Cat: What are you doing in Joey's bed?!

Shane: I live here.

Cat: Then shouldn't you be sleeping in the guest room?

Shane: No.

Cat: Why not?

Joey: Because, Cat, he's my boyfriend.

I saw heartbreak and anger in her eyes. I watched as she walked over to Joey. Then she suddenly grabbed his face and kissed him.

Sawyer's POV

Snap.

Picture taken.

This will ruin Shoey for sure. I'll just post all of these pictures online and they will be ruined.

Perfect plan to win over Shane. And Cat can have Joey.

Win win.

Shane's POV

How dare she kiss my boyfriend before I even got the chance to kiss him today?!

He pushes her away from him.

Joey: Cat! What the hell?!

Cat: Shane has Lisa! Why would you want him?

Joey: Lisa hurt him. They aren't together anymore. I'm with him now and I don't want you messing with our relationship.

Cat: It sounds like you pity him.

Joey: I don't pity him! I love him!

She walks over to me and grips my shirt. She brings her face close to mine and whisper.

Cat: Break up with him or I will kill you. And I will get Lisa to help me.

She releases me and walks out. Joey comes over and hugs me.

Joey: Are you ok?

Shane: Yeah I'm fine.

Joey: What did she say to you.

Shane: Nothing.

Joey: Shane, you have to trust me. I love you and I'm here to protect you. If someone is trying to hurt you, please tell me.

Shane: Fine. Cat says she will kill me if I don't break up with you. And she said she will get Lisa to help her.

Joey: Oh Shaney...

Shaney... I'll roll with it. He kisses me and hugs me close to his chest.

Joey: Since we're being open and honest with each other maybe I should tell you about the tension between me and Sawyer.

Shane: Well what's wrong?

Joey: I think Sawyer has a crush on you.
