Never Switch Up

EIGHT. (Part One)

Amirah's POV
The day is finally here. We're flying out today I cannot wait. My birthday is tomorrow and I am looking forward to spending the day in the sun and turning up in the night with my sisters. We've been preparing for holiday this whole week I haven't had any time for myself. Me and JB had a little conversation the day after I saw him but that was the only conversation.  There wasn't really anything there, he was cool but I don't think he's interested in me in that way.

Dragging down my suitcase down the stairs I could hear the girls and my mum in the kitchen. "Mirah I've made you breakfast come eat baby", my mum called out to me. I went into the kitchen and I could see all the girls munching on the breakfast she had cooked.

My mum was a cutie. She was a Lebanese and Somalian woman but she wasn't a typical African mum, she had grown up in London and she was with the shits. She had me at 18 when she was in college so she wasn't even in her 40s yet and she surely didn't act her age. If she didn't have work, she would be coming Portugal with us and I wouldn't even mind. She was like my bestfriend, me her and Armani would act like triplets sometimes.

That's another thing I loved, although Armani wasn't her child you wouldn't even guess because the two of them were almost as inseparable as me and Armani are. Armani's mum wasn't present in her life as Armani was the product of a little slip up while my parents were on a break. In my mum's eyes she has two daughters and I loved it like that.

After we were done eating, we all piled into my mum's car so she could drop us to the airport. We got to the airport and said our goodbyes to her and it was Portugal here we come!

Meanwhile with the boys

It had been a stressful week for JB,LK,ST and R1, being the Bala Boyz came with a lot of hate. They found themselves in passa quite a lot of the times. Boys wanted to kill them because of the money they had.  The boys weren't ones to take disrespect either so they found themselves in a lot of wars. They weren't gang members but they could surely protect themselves if they had to.

During the week JB found himself being followed by a black car. He had also received a text that said " Your time is soon up JB " Jeremiah didn't take threats lightly and it irked him that he couldn't work out who was onto him and why. Out of all the boys, he was the one with quickest temper but he was also the one who hated trouble.

All JB cared about was making money, he didn't see the point in wasting precious time beefing people. Him and the boys had managed to avoid beef for the past 3 months and now this person was following him and sending threats. " I can't catch a break for fucksakes"

The boys were now at LK's bit trying to figure out what to do. "Could it be Tempz and them man", R1 asked the rest of the boys whilst scratching his beard. R1 was the calm one of the group. Situations like this stressed him out because he didn't see the necessity.

"On my life I don't care whoever it is, I'm going to dead them". LK was the hothead of the group, he was quick to use his hands and go after anyone that tried to disrespect them. "We've fully been minding our business though, this shit is annoying", ST sighed. Whilst the boys were planning and looking for solutions, JB sat back with his eyes closed. He couldn't be asked to speak, he wasn't with the talking he just wanted to see the person face to face. No talk, just action. As he sat quietly, he asked himself where things all went wrong. He just wanted peace.

Portugal-Albufeira

The girls had landed, got settled in their hotel and were now sitting around the pool taking pictures for Instagram. They sat and discussed their new found friends; the boys. " I think I have a little crush on Ramarn" Naz admitted to the girls as she hid her face. She wasn't one to be interested in boys so for her to have a crush the girls were in shock. "ST is also kinda cute", Grace said as she giggled.

The girls had never all liked boys from the same friendship group so this was new to them. As the three girls spoke, Amirah concentrated on replying to the Instagram comments she had received on her bikini pics.  As she was replying, she saw a Snapchat notification from JB, he had swiped up on her snap " so pretty girl can smile then👀, hope you're enjoying yourself beautiful and ft me later"

She found herself cheesing, she was under the impression that he didn't see her like that so this was all new. She was too lost in her phone that she didn't realise all the girls were now looking at her. "So who's got you smiling like that Mirah" Armani said as she grabbed her phone.

As Armani looked at the message she also started cheesing, "what do you lot have FaceTime calls now yeah" she teased Amirah. Rolling her eyes, Amirah grabbed back her phone, "we had one and I thought it was friendly" Armani gave her a side eye and they laughed.
