As I remembered how my day turned to s***t in less than 2 hours I was crying all over again. Que mustve heard me snifflin because he held me tighter and kiss my forehead.

Que: Shawn please tell me whats wrong.
Shawn: My little sister gone die.(i said fightin through my sobs)
Que: What?
Shawn: My mama got into a car accident yesterday and the hospital called me. I went up there and she looked so bad man, and my b***h ass mama gone kick me out the room.
Que: Damn man, look its all gone be ok. Please just stop crying dawg can u do that for me.

As he wiped the tears from my eyes I just looked at him and nodded my head. Just when I was gettin back comfortable being held by his strong arms there was a knock at the door. I hopped up almost pushing him off the bed as his mom walked in.

Ms.Thomas: Good morning baby how u feeling?(she said not even phased by what she saw)
Shawn: Im doin better.(i said my heart still racing)

I was out but Que's mom didnt know about me let alone her own son, or so I thought. He walked up behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist which made me jump looking nervously from him to his mom waitin on her to snap.

Que: Ma can u give us a minute.
Ms.Thomas: Of course, take all the time yall need I was just coming up to tell yall breakfast was ready.

She just smiled as she walked out the room closing the door. I looked at Que who was still holdin my waist lookin down at me smiling.

Shawn: What the hell was that, did I miss something?
Que: My mama knows shawn, she's always known.
Shawn: Wow, are u serious?
Que: Yup, we had a heart to heart last night when I asked her for some advice. I was tellin her about the reason I left angie sayin how I was in love wit another girl. She let me vent then gave me a few words of wisdom and burst me out sayin she knew I was talkin about u and she didnt care cuz she love me no matter what.(he smiled)
Shawn: Thats wussup Que!(i smiled) I wish my mom was like that.(my smile faded)
Que: Its her loss cuz she the one missin out.

He lifted my chin as he said that and looked me in the eyes. I felt the heat from his face as it came closer to mine then I heard my phone ring. I pulled back from him snapping back to reality and grabbed my phone. It was courtney callin me, and it was just the first of like 20. I ignored the call and put the phone back down as I got pissed rememberin what I saw yesterday.

Que: U aint gone answer the phone and talk to yo man?(he said annoyed)
Shawn: Nah, I aint got s***t to say to him right now.(i said equally annoyed)
Que: Why, what happened?(he ask concerned)
Shawn: I found out that he still talkin to his ex, and they be hangin out and s***t.
Que: Ok, so whats the big deal I never knew u were the jealous type.
Shawn: Im not, but he doin this s***t behind my back. So he obviously doin dirt if he felt the need to hide it from me, and the dude number aint even saved in his phone
Que: Aw, well s***t I dont know what to say after that.(he laughed) F***k that nigga though if he on bulls***t move on.

I knew the reason he said that, and I cant lie the thought crossed my mind. I just dont think im ready to go there wit Que because I would hate for one of us to f***k up and ruin our friendship. We made our way down stairs and ate then got ready for school. I had some cloths at Que's house so I didnt have to go home and see courtney which I was happy about. We got to school, and as I made my way to my locker talkin and laughin wit Que. There he was lookin like a mix between worried and pissed when he saw me. I didnt even acknowledge him as I opened my locker to get my books.

Court: So u just gone act like u dont see me standing here? Where the f***k u been at man I woke up and u were gone? Do u know how worried I was when I kept callin u and u didnt answer?...SHAWN!!(he yelled)
Que: Yo u need to lower yo f***kin tone.(he said gettin in courtney's face)
Court: Nigga what!?
Shawn: Que its cool, ill catch u later.( I said pullin him back)
Que: U sure?
Shawn: Yea
Que: Iight, ill see on lunch hours(he reluctantly walked away muggin courtney in the process)
Court: What the f***k is wrong wit him?
Shawn: No the question is whats wrong wit u!
Court: What u talkin about bae? U mad at me because I was worried about u? I know I yelled and s***t but im sorry shawty I thought something had happened to u.
Shawn: Nah I aint mad about nothin, but do u got something u need to tell me. I mean anything that u think I dont know about that u been holdin back?

He looked at me and frowned his face up while he pondered on what I just said.

Court: No, u know I tell u everything so where the f***k is this coming from bae?
Shawn: Wrong answer.(i said slammin my locker and walkin off)
Court: Man hold up shawty what u mean?(he said grabbin me)
Shawn: U a f***kin liar!!(i said snatchin away from him) U told me I wouldnt ever have to worry about u cheatin on me and u would show me what love was suppose to be like. Yo ass just like that b***h ass nigga Dre!!(i yelled)
Court: Baby what are u talkin about!?(he yelled)

I was so frustrated with him actin stupid so I just turned around and walked off.

Court: Bae wait can u please just talk to me!(he said grabbin my arm but once again I snatched away)
Shawn: Hell nah talk to that f***g ass nigga Noah, yall talk about every f***kin thing else!!
Court: Hold on shawty it ain-
Shawn: What ever nigga.

I walked off before he could get another word out. I went to class still pissed from the arguement and MiMi could tell as well as Tevon.

MiMi: Wussup fam u iight?
Shawn: Yea.(i said low)
MiMi: Come on shawty we might not be that cool no more but im still a friend, talk to me.
Shawn: Im cool MiMi forreal.
MiMi: Dude I know when u lyin, but iight ill leave u alone for now.

She turned back around and then my phone vibrated. It was a text from Tevon sayin "Hi" wit a smiley face. He was so silly and I couldnt help but turn around and look at him cheesin which made me laugh. Since I really didnt feel like talkin havin the entire class in my business I texted him back.

Shawn: Hey :)
Tevon: Im glad I could make u smile, but whats wrong boo?
Shawn: Oh so im boo now? Lol
Tevon: U been my boo lol
Shawn: Whatever, and me and court got into it this morning.
Tevon: Aw, for what?
Shawn: Cuz he a f***kin hypocrite. He got mad a me for huggin u yesterday, but he still talkin to his ex.
Tevon: Awwwww s***t I make that nigga feel threatened lol. Nah, but thats is some bogus s***t though.
Shawn: Ikr.
Tevon: So that mean I cant hug u no more then? :'(
Shawn: Only if stop tryin :)
Tevon: Cool, one day u gone be my boo forreal when u stop playin wit these lil boys.
Shawn: yea yea yea lol.

He never texted back after that so I looked at him and he was just smilin. When class was over I made my way to the door and he grab my waist. Then I felt warm breath against my ear as he whipsered "Im dead serious boo" then nibbled it sending shivers down my spine.

Shawn: Boy get off me.(i laughed)
Tevon: U liked it.( he said as he bit his bottom lip)

The rest of the day Tevon kept a smile on my face while we were textin. Lunch hour had rolled around and I made my way to sit down next to Que whose face lit up when he saw me.

Que: Wussup shawn.(he smiled)
Shawn: Wussup.
Que: So did u handle that s***t wit courtney?
Shawn: Not really I had to walk away from him cuz I was on,the verge of hittin his ass.
Que: Oh...
Shawn: Look Que, I know how u feel about me and I feel the same way but I want us to stay friends if thats koo.
Que: Oh, yea.
Shawn: Que please dont be mad at me, but u too important to me for us to possibly f***k up our friendship.
Que: And u too important to me for me to just be yo friend, but I wont pressure u. Just know that im not gone stop tryin.
Shawn: What that mean?
Que: It means for right now I can play my role, and ill respect yo decisions and yo relationship wit courtney.

I didnt know what to say so I just sat there lookin at him smilin. My smile turned into a frown when I saw courtney coming in my direction. I got up to walk out throwing my food away before he could say anything to me. I heard him callin my name, and that just made me start walkin faster. I turned the corner heading to the gym and ran right into none other than Andre.

Dre: Damn watch where u goin nigga!
Shawn: No nigga u watch where im goin!
Dre: Aye let me talk to u for a second.
Shawn: Dude we aint got s***t to talk about.
Dre: Man why u always givin me the cold shoulder like u dont still love me. I was yo first so I know u still feel something.
Shawn: I dont, and I dont love u.(i said twistin my face in disgust at his statement)
Dre: Well I still love u, and I want u back bae.(he said grabbin me pullin me close to him)
Shawn: Get the f***k off of me dude! That ship saled a long ass time ago and u need to get over it.(i said tryna push him back)
Dre: Man stop f***kin fightin me u know u like this s***t.(he started tryna kiss my neck)
Shawn: Dre im serious get the f***k off of me dude!!
