Friends With Aaliyah Mendes

Hickey

- the Monday after the party-
I woke up for school and right before I left I checked my self in the mirror.

What in bloody hell?!
I have a hickey, on my neck!
I need to do something. Anything, but I have no make-up and I'm already late.

I left my hair down, and its long enough to hide it. ( hopefully)

I tried to avoid Aaliyah all day, but we have gym together.

" hey Sky! I haven't seen you all day."
" oh, umm sorry. I got here late this morning."
All the students walked out to the track.
" we're running 2 miles and your not going to put your hair up?" Aaliyah asked me.
" nah." I say, trying to smile. If I put my hair up she'll see the hickey that her brother left.

After we ran I was hot, sweaty and tired.
Aaliyah and I were walking to study hall.
" Sky? Are you hiding something? I mean who doesn't put there hair up when they are running."
" I just did not feel like putting my hair up..."
She moved my hair away.
" hey stop!" I said.
She saw the purple, and blue hickey.
" what the hell Sky! You have a hickey!" She tried to whisper.
" ummm no...."
" ummm yes!" She added, " who gave it to you?"
I could not say, your brother so I blamed it on the only logical thing."
" my hair straightener gave it to me."
She let out a deep breath, " omg when because you did not have it at the party?"
No I did not have it at the party, I got it durning the party!
" last night, I was trying out new hair styles and I got caught up in my music and I was not paying a whole lot of attention..."
She laughed, " I have done that way to many times."
We both laughed it off and went to study hall.

After school I went to Aaliyah's.
We were on the couch doing home work, when he heard someone come in.
" hello?"
Aaliyah yelled, " hey Shawn!"
Shawn came in and walked towards us, eyeing me down.

" I'll be right back." Aaliyah walked away.
" Shawn what the hell?"
" what?"
I pointed to my neck.
He laughed, " Saturday was fun, and I know you enjoyed it too."
" Shawn, Aaliyah saw it.." I whispered
He's smile went away.
" I don't want to do this to her."
Shawn walked over to me and put his hands on my waist, " you weren't saying that on Saturday. Actually you did not say anything on Saturday, because you were to busy screaming my name."
He added, mocking me, " Shawn! Shawn!"
I punched him, and laughing, " hey stop!"
He smiled and right before he could get any closer...
" Shawn leave her alone!" He backed up.
" stop being annoying!"
I started walking over to Aaliyah, " yeah stop being to annoying!"
I laughed and we walked up stairs.
- later-
" hey I should get going."
" okay. Let me walk you out." Aaliyah said.
" it's okay. I can find my way out." I laughed, " I'll see you tomorrow... bye."

I walked over to Shawn's room, and quietly opened the door.
