How Many More Promises? (Discontinued)

Chapter 9

"Hey." Halie smiles at me, walking into my room.

She was really, really pretty. No wonder Shawn likes her.

"Hi." I fake smile at her.

"Well, I wanted to meet you. I thought we could hang out, and you know, be besties." She smiles, again.

"Sure." I nod.

She leans against the wall, and puts her arms behind her back. She starts poking her tongue against her cheek,

"Okay, I don't really wanna be best friends with you, I just wanted to talk to you about Shawn. I heard you had some past with him, and have sorta dated him. I just want to let you know, he is mine. Not yet, but stay away from him. Don't tell him I talked to you about this either."

My jaw drops, and I flip.

"Who are you to tell me to stay away from him? How do you know I wasn't planning on it? You don't know what has happened with us! He's using me, making me think he likes me, then some other girl comes along and it's like I'm not even here anymore! I'm done with him, so have fun!" I'm in tears now, not even realizing I was gripping my pillow so hard.

"Oh." Halie says, then quickly runs out.

Why? Why Shawn? Why. That's my question for you.

Why?

I gently lay back, sobbing. I don't wanna be here right now.

"Hey Mac, wanna go get some froyo?" I hear Hayes ask, opening the door.

"Mackenna? Babe? What's wrong?" He quickly comes and lays beside me, pulling me into him.

I shake my head no, telling him I can't talk right now because every one knows how hard it is to talk, when you're bawling.

"I love you. And I have a feeling this is about Shawn." He kisses my cheek.

Here I am, a sixteen year old, laying with a thirteen year old. I wouldn't wanna be with anyone else but him.

Now, I know what you're thinking. That I love, love him, like want to date him, but no, I want no other boy best friend to ever replace him.

"Hayes, I love you so much." I say after sobbing.

"I love you more, Mac. Don't worry things will get better." He pulls me in closer.

A/N - *Just saying but I think any girl would give anything up to be in Makennas position right now.*

****

"Wanna go shopping? Froyo? Hang out? Eat? Anything?" Hayes asks.

"Uh, I'll go shopping. I need some new clothes. Just give me time to get ready." I smile.

"Okay, I'll be waiting in the boys room." He nods.

I hug him, and head off to the bathroom, after grabbing my bag.

I hopped in the shower, the warm water feeling so good. I shampoo, wash my body and face, shave, and condition. I hop back out, drying myself off and finding an outfit.

I pick out white shorts, and a a pink shirt that says CALI on it in grey. I text Hayes, telling him I'm ready because I don't feel like seeing Shawn. You know, the boy that uses me.

"Let's go," Hayes says leading me to the SUV. Bart is dropping us off because, I don't have a license at sixteen.

"Where to first?" I ask, entering the mall.

"Let's go to American Eagle." He suggests.

So, we go shopping for basically the rest of the day. I come home with almost ten bags in my hand, while Hayes has some of my others. Successful shopping trip, because I only bought what was on sale, and I had coupons!

"Can you tell me what's going on with you and Shawn?" Aaliyah asks, sitting on my bed.

"Sure. You know the girl, Halie?" I ask.

"Yeah." Aaliyah rolls her eyes.

"You don't like her, do you?" I laugh at her answer, (rolling her eyes) to my question.

"No, she's a prissy girl. Just like the Callie girl!" She says.

"Well, Shawn apologized to me and I accepted it, so we got close again. And since Halie arrived, he's all for her, and forgot about me. He did the same thing to me again that he did with Callie." I respond.

"Why is Shawn acting like this? He's being so mean." She raises her eyebrows.

"Yeah, but it's late, so I'm gonna go to sleep." I yawn, leaning back into my pillow.

"Okay, night." She smiles, hopping up.

*AUTHORS NOTE- Sorry Halie (if you're reading this) for making you sound so mean! Something had to be done, you will be getting nicer in this story! *

* morning *

"Morning." Hayes awakes me.

"Gosh, you scared me. Why are you so close to me?" I laugh.

"I don't know, but hey I think we're leaving for Magcon Atlanta today." He says.

"Really?" I ask, excited.

"Yeah, I think." He smiles.

A/N - I skipped New Jersey, and San Diego! BY THE WAY- pretend the boys are all still in Magcon together, and it's the same as it's always been! (I wish) :(

So, Bart said we are officially leaving for Atlanta today! Yay! Finally out of Chicago!

"I'm sitting beside you on the plane." I hug Hayes.

Hayes is my b to the double f.

"Okay." He smiles.

I see Shawn, walking out of the elevator, and decide to confront him.

"Don't move, I need to talk to you." I yell, down the hall.

"Now what?" He asks, annoyed.

"Really? Now what?" I mimic him.

"Yeah." He rolls his eyes.

Who knew Shawn could be so rude!

"I seriously can not believe you." I say.

"Sorry for not liking you! My bad! You don't always get what you want Makenna!"

My jaw drops, for the second time today. "Oh my gosh." I mumble.

"If anything, you should be saying you're sorry to me!" I snap back.

"Why should I be saying sorry?" He yells.

"You don't pay attention, do you? What was I thinking, coming to Magcon. I should of never came! You caused so much drama with me that I didn't need in my life! First it was Callie, now it's Halie! Wonder who next. You're expecting me to forgive you, then you totally forget about me and see this new girl! It's so.. DOUCHE BAG LIKE! YOU ARE A MAJOR DOUCHE BAG! I HATE YOU!" I'm screaming. I didn't even know I could get that mad.

And in response to that, Shawn looks madder. Not even sorry for me. I shake my head at him, tears streaming down my face and run to find Cameron. Although of course, I turn the corner to find all of the boys listening to our fight.

I find Cam amongst all of them, and run to his arms.

"I wanna leave. I wanna leave. I wanna leave. Take me home." I sob into his chest.

"Mak.." He doesn't know what to say.

Well I know what to say! TAKE ME THE HECK HOME! BUY ME A PLANE TICKET BACK TO
CHINO HILLS!
