Boy Meets Girl

8: shawns dad

Shawn's POV
We had started to walk over to Cherry's place and something seemed very familiar about the roads we were taking. And that's when I saw the sign. The Pink Flamingo Trailer Park. Holy crap, it was her and her dad I saw moving in. "SHAWNIE MA BOY!" My dad came out of our trailer. Oh no. "Hey Shawnie, who ya got here?" He gestured towards my friends. "Well, I see Topanga and Corky." He said. "Cory, dad." I corrected him, feeling embarrassed. "Ahh, my apologies, well then who's this fine young lady?" He gestured toward Cherry. "Hi, my name is Cherry Li, it is very nice to meet you Mr Hunter, your sons been very welcoming to me, he must've been raised well." She smiled softly at him and shook his hand. "Well, it's nice to meet you to Ms Cherry, my boy here was raised right if he's been treatin you right. Your dad the one down there over yunder?" He asked. "Yes sir, we just moved in a little bit ago." She said politely. "He's a nice man, he raised a good daughter. Shawn, you stayin over there tonight?" He asked me. "Yea dad, I'll see you." I said. "See ya boy." He said and I hugged him and started walking ahead of the group. I didn't know where I was going, but I was going. "Shawn. Shawn. SHAWN!" I heard her angelic voice yelling at me. "What?" I snapped a bit. She backed up. "Uh uh, not gonna work, don't you dare get an attitude with me Hunter, knock it off." She said, putting her hands on her hips. "Yeah, and what're you gonna do about it if I don't?" I challenged. She smirked and took off her jacket. She threw it on the ground. "This" she walked up to me and shoved me lightly. "Cherry, dont." I said calmly, Cory and Topanga staring at us. "No, do not tell me what to do, YOU challenged ME, if you wanna go, let's go Hunter." She bowed up.

Cherrys POV
He was not seriously gonna try and ignore me, give me and attitude, then act like he's gonna fo something, then tell me what to do. I shoved him lightly. "Cherry, don't" He said, obviously trying to be calm. I could feel T and Matthews staring at us. "No, do not tell me what to do, YOU challenged ME, if you wanna go, let's go Hunter." I crossed my hands over my chest and stared him down. He just stood there, obviously heated. "Ya done?" I asked. "Yeah" He said, sounding upset. I felt bad, there was definitely something wrong, I would find out later. I grabbed my jacket off the ground and slung it over shoulder. I went over and held his hand. "Come on guys." I said smiling at the two behind us. I leaned my head on his shoulder as he leaned his head on mine. "What's wrong?" I asked him. He tensed a bit. "Nothing." I lifted my head, but kept my hand intertwined with his. "Don't do that, what's wrong?" I insisted. "Can't get nothin past you, huh?" He said. "Shawn, talk to me. We may have only known eachother for a day, but here we are, about to go to my trailer. Talk. To. Me" I continued to insist. "I don't know, I just feel embarrassed, my dad just came out and made a scene." He explained. I smiled at him. "What" he smiled with me. "There's that smile" I said and walked to Cory and Topanga. "Cory, go up with him." I told him. He listened. "So, you excited?" T asked me. "For what?" I asked, curious. "Uh, all the games we are gonna play, dumb sleepover games, that are mandatory?" She said that to me like I should know what she was talking about. "Uh, actually, when I had friends over before I moved here, we would go out or talk about drama. Not play games, no offense." I said. "Oh honey, just wait till we play the games we play." She said, a smirk on her face. I chuckled lightly. "Ok?" I said and we laughed and ran up to the boys and jumped on their backs. They laughed and held us on their backs and gave us piggy back rides all the way to my trailer. Right before Shawn let me down I whispered in his ear "You my best friend?" He laughed. "Yeah." He said. "Promise?" I held out my pinky. He looked at me like I was silly. I put my pinky in his face more. And he just laughed. "I promise I'm your best friend." We hooked pinkies. I kissed his cheek, hopped down and dragged him inside.
