Shawn gave me my phone and we walked back to his house.
"I'm really sorry, Jacquelyn. I shouldn't have posted those things, it's just..." Aaliyah trailed off.
I was doing Aaliyah's hair, and talking to her while Shawn and his dad were out. It's nice having someone of the same sex who is about your age, to talk to.
"Shawn, he's not the type of guy to pick a girl and go out with her once, and he definitely doesn't just randomly choose them. He wants to know everything about her, before he even talks to her, so he knows if it's actually worth trying." She added.
I didn't respond. I nodded slowly to let her know I was listening.
"Like you. He has talked about you so much, it wasn't a lot at first but this past year it was off the chain. It was always things like "Jacquelyn made eye contact with me" or "Jacquelyn gave me a pencil today.".. He really really loves you." She said looking at me through the mirror.
"And I really really really love him, believe it or not but this past week has been absolutely amazing. Don't apologize about posting those things either, because it really shouldn't bother me, because I'm with Shawn.. And they're not." I said straightening the last piece of her hair.
I brushed through it to make sure I got all of her hair. When I was finished he turned around and gave me a hug, a tight hug. I hugged her back.
"Thank you, for coming into, Shawn's life." She whispered.
I hugged her tight one more time and then we let go.
"Hey, do you want to come over to my house and swim? I can just text Shawn and tell him to meet us there." I asked her.
"Yeah! Okay! I'll be back." She said running down the hall.
I just did her hair and we're about to ruin it. Smooth.
She came running down the stairs, she had shorts and a crop top on, with flip flops, her bathing suit status around her neck.
"Hey mom, me and Jacquelyn are going to her house to swim." Aaliyah said.
"Oh okay. Be safe." She smiled.
Aaliyah kissed her cheek and we walked out.
When we got to my house I started up the driveway.
"This is your house?" She asked.
"Yeah.." I said confused.
"I thought this was some superstars house, it's huge." She said.
"Well no star here, just me and my mom." I laughed.
We walked in and up to my room.
*Aaliyah's POV*
Jacquelyn and I walked up to what I assume is her room.
It was huge. The walls where orange with blue, pink, and purple handprints everywhere. She had a queen size bed, a desk with and apple compute sitting on it, as well as a lamp and school books, she had a dresser, two night stands on either side of her bed, a mini fridge that was only filled with water and flavored water. Some of her walls where covered in posters, one was completely covered in pictures, above her desk was a pin board with two things on it, a picture of her and Shawn, and a wrist band from the fair.
"Do you want something?" She asked me as she pulled a flavored water out of the fridge.
"I'll have a water." I said.
She handed me a water then walked over to her dresser. She pulled out three bathing suits, a plain blue one, a orange one with blue dots, and a plain black one.
