Shoey-The Summer After High School

Chapter 1-The Beginning

Bailey's POV

I was really nervous. Starting a new life that WASN'T in my parents house. Yeah, that was gonna be hard. I looked over at Joey and he looked like he was gonna vomit.

"Hey Joester, Are ya ok?" I asked trying not to laugh. He looks over at me and sighs. He gives me 'The Look'.

"Lets see, am I ok? My palms are sweaty, I'm freaking out! NO I'm not ok!" I took a deep breath, trying not to laugh, and put my hand on his shoulder.

"Why are you so nervous? It's not like your getting up in front of the whole school and reading a speech or anything." He glares at me. I smile.

"Stop it." He says playfully. I put my hands up in surrender.

"But seriously, your gonna be fine." I said looking serious now.

"I just don't want people to laugh at me because I'm "The Gay Kid"."

"Screw them on what they think. Be yourself! Your Fabulous self!" I said in a gay accent. He giggles and play punches me on my arm.

"Joey Graceffa. Please come up to the podium." He took a deep breath. I put my hand on his shoulder.

"You've got this." I whisper and he smiles at me. As he walks up I look at the people watching him. My eyes land on a guy with Brownish, Blond hair, staring at Joey. I looked closer and saw the guy was smiling at him as he got up on stage. That guy was Shane Dawson! The most popular guy in school. But why is he smiling at Joey? Last time I heard, him and his gang were making fun of him. My face got red with anger. Was Shane just here to make fun of Joey? If he was, he can fuck off! I stood up and proceeded to walk over to Shane with my fists balled up. I looked like I was gonna punch him, and knock that smug smile off his petty little face.

"Shane Dawson!" I yelled but not too loud to distract everyone else. He looked up at me with that fucking smug smile.

"Please Nerd, sit down next to me. I dare you." Shane said and I did. I grabbed the front of his gown and pulled him closer to my face.

"Call me that again and your face is gonna meet the ground." He rolled his eyes like I really wasn't gonna do it. "I also have a few questions for you. 1: Did you just show up to make fun of Joey? 2: Did you just smile at Joey to tease him?" He never stopped smiling no matter what I said. "If you EVER hurt him, I WILL make sure you suffer!" He pushed me away and fixed his gown.

"Pa-lease. Like I'd EVER  hurt that sexy guy." My eyes widened. 'Wait! Shane likes Joey?! How? Why? When?....H-How?......Wait is he just saying that to get a rise out of me?' I narrowed my eyes at him.

"What?" I asked and his eyes widened. I think he just realized what he just said.

"Did you say what I think you said shane?"  He looked at me with shock

"What are you talking about Bailey?" He said NOT so clam like. It was my turn to smile smug like.

"Shane.....Do you like Joey?"

"Psssh! N-No! Of course I don't! Why would I?" Ha ha-He was blushing. Just then I heard clapping. Shit. joey's done with his speech.

"We'll talk about this later Shane Dawson. No if's, an's, or but's about it." I then go back to my spot on the bleachers. Joey soon walked up and sat next to me. He looked relieved that was over. 'an I tell you a secret, I didn't hear his speech! He was gonna ask me about it sometime! In fact that was....now!'

"So...How was my speech?" It felt as if my stomach had launched itself in my throat.

"It was....Amazing!" He nodded and smiled.

"I know your lying. I'm not mad. But Why didn't you hear it?" I sighed. Time to confess. Or maybe not.

"I've got to admit, I was talking to.......Shane. He was making fun of you and I had to have it out with him!" Joey looked over at Shane.

"Your such a Jerk Shane Dawson!" Joey yelled and turned back to me. I saw Shane look at the ground with a sad face. I've got to admit, I felt bad for him! After all, he did like Joey. But I'm basically fighting with myself on whether to tell Joey or not. I mean I will. Just not now. Like Later. Or never.

THE NEXT DAY

 I woke up to my alarm. I got up, with laziness, and headed downstairs. I was about to fix coffee when my doorbell rang. 'Wonder who that could be?' I opened the door and my eyes widened. Shane Dawson was at the door. The fuck?

"Hey....do you have a minute?" I slowly nodded and let him in, But still in shock. We sat on my couch and was silent for a couple minutes. He looked so worried. I wonder what was bothering him?

"Shane," He looked up. "What's wrong? I mean, Why'd you come here of all places?" He fixed his posture and looked me straight in the eye.

"I really like Joey."

"And?"

"Your the only one who knows." I sat back in my chair shocked.

"Why don't you tell him that?" He shuffled in his seat.

"I'm nervous, I've never like anyone like that before. When he called me jerk yesterday, I took it personally." I nodded. I went to answer but the door knocked again. Shit. Joey.

"Quick out the back." He ran out to his car and drove away. I opened the door and let Joey in.

"Hey so I was thinking maybe we could go shopping tod-"

"I have to tell you something." It got serious. "It has to do with Shane."

"What about him?" He asked sitting down. I sat down next to him and connected my arm with his.

"Shane likes you." His eyes widened.

"What?"

TO BE CONTINUED! Deal with it! -----L----
