BRYCE
Me and the boys were up. I guess they were super tired from flying. And This girl wants to get up and get out today... yeah okay.
"So i was thinking about me and Maleah go on a trip for her birthday" I say. "Dang Baecation already?" Jaden says. I looked at Blake. "Fine, Mary and I are going to Malibu this weekend" He says. I laughed. "Okay since we're just saying things... Nessa and I are together" Josh says. We all clapped and cheered for him. "And I blocked Harley" Griffin says. "What are you guys confessing your thoughts right now?" A half awake, bed head, one sock, glasses on Maleah says coming into the kitchen. "You was fighting demons in your sleep sheriff?" Jaden jokes. "More like my back" I say stretching. "You're not funny" She says with a straight face and shaking her head.
"Good morning baby, or afternoon?" I going to kiss and hug her. "Leave me alone" She walking away before i got to her. "Where's Mary?" Maleah says looking around the room with the fridge wide open. "Not up either, duh" Jaden says all in her face. "Damn yall are annoying" She says looking around the room. "What are you doing today Mrs. Hall?" Griffin says as she took a drink from the milk... Yeah this girl drinks milk but is lactose. She choked and laughed. "Hey that's kinda cute... Sadly you'll only be a Mr. Johnson without a Mrs." She smirked while closing the door. It's was an awkward silence and everyone tryna not to laugh. "Hey just because i'm half asleep doesn't mean i don't got it" She says as she wraps up in my arms. "Oh now you wanna be my friend?" I say looking at her. "Not really" She says looking at me. "Why are you so mean" I say pushing her off me. "Becauseeeeee" She says coming back to me.
"So are we going to go get the uhaul at three?" Noah says. "Yeah, what time is it?"She says. "Two forty" He says. She jumped up and ran upstairs. "MARY GET UP I NEED YOUR HELP!" She yells while running upstairs. "Why are we getting a uhaul?" Kio asks. "Because Maleah is Tony Stark and can do anything" Noah says. "Maleah is nowhere near Tony Stark level yet." Griffin says. "You don't think so?" Blake says. "Fuck no, just because she's smart doesn't mean she's at Starks level... She's not a millionaire, a playboy, or a philanthropist" Griffin says. Blake looked scared I turned my head in confusion and he turned his phone and it was Maleah and Mary with the scary stare that everyone hates. "What?" Blake flipped his phone and Griffins jaw dropped. "Yeah, i don't like you having a girlfriend." He says shaking his head. "Actually Griffin I'm closer to a million than you are, I was close to being a play boy bunny... Bryce wasn't supposed to know that. BUT Griffin i fucking bed you don't know what the fuck a philanthropist is so shut up. Your career is to post tiktoks, fuck off the phone" Maleah says going in and hanging up the phone. "Damn got yo ass" Jaden says laughing.
Jaden, Kio and Anthony are probably the only ones who can say something stupid and not start shit because they're probably the most laid back... Well Anthony and Kio are. Jadens sometimes loud... just kidding Always loud.
MALEAH
I was finishing up getting dressed and i looked at Oasis. "You wanna go for a ride?" I say looking at him. He jumped up and ran to the door. I laughed. "Alright, let's go babyyy" I say grabbing my phone and purse. I walked out and Bryce stopped me. "You we're almost a playboy bunny?" He says as a grin appeared on his face. I laughed. "Stop, we're not discussing this right now" I say grabbing his hand and walking downstairs.
Once we got downstairs everyone that was coming which was Me, Bryce, Mary, Blake, Noah and Jaden.
"Okay so who wants to drive the uhaul?" I say. "I do" All the boys yell. I looked at Mary. "Noah" We both say looking at him. "Alright let's go!" Noah and Jaden say dapping each other up. "Okay Bryce and I are going to go look at houses" I say. "Blake and i will go to Target" Mary says. "Ugh i don't wanna go to target" Blake whines. "I'll buy you something" Mary says. "Target sounds fun i guess" he says. I laughed and went to the garage to get Oasis' leash and he followed me because he knows where his leashes are. "You ready go big boy?!" I say hyping him up. I went to go put it on him but he kept biting it. "Come on dude" i say as i finally got it on.

Bryce and I were sitting in the car just talking about everything and it was honestly nice just driving and having a normal conversation. "So when get married we're gonna have extra room when fight?" He jokes. I laughed. "Honestly do we want too?" i say. "I don't like fighting honestly" He says grabbing my hand. See this is the 24/7 body contact i'm talking about. "Yeah me either" I say playing with his fingers. "So who's this guy?" He asks about Rhodey. "Rhodey? Basically my uncle,nanny, and magic guru" I say. "Magic Guru? Nanny?" He laughs. I say up and faced him and smiled because I love telling the story of Jamal Rhodes. "Jamal Rhodes is literally the War Machine in Iron man.-" "An amazing sidekick? So your dad is actual Tony Stark" He says. "I hate you i wanted to say that" I pout. "I'm sorry" He says kissing me. "Don't interrupt me when i explain why he's the Magic guru and my nanny" I point at him. He put his hands up. "Got it" He says. "Okay, He's a Magic Guru because he can literally make anything happen like... magic. Like once i didn't like this girl at school and then the next day... Didn't see her. Then there's the time my parents didn't wanna pay for school trips. He did it. Never missed out things. He's a good guy" I say nodding. "The first one sounds like he killed them" He says. I looked at him and gave him a soft smile. "Yeah..." I say nodding. "Maleah!" He jumps up. "What? I don't think he killed her" I say. He looked at me. "Babe i seriously don't think so" I say. And in that moment. Rhodey pulled up.
"And there's our guy." I smile getting out. I opened the door for Oasis and he jumped out. "I see your still pushing this Benz" Rhodey says getting out of his Audi A5. It's so sexy but ugly because i'm not in it. "Only because i had to give up a Land Rover" I say hugging him. Oasis barked and jumped on him. "Maleah get your dog" He says looking at me. "Say hi to Oasis" I say folding my arms. "Hey dog, let's look at this house" He say flipping Oasis off. "You must be the white boy who's sent her on an emotional rollercoster" He says walking up to Bryce. "And you must be the Magic Guru" Bryce smiles. Yeah i'm definitely rubbing off on him. "Bryce honey not him" I say shaking my head. He switched his attitude quick"Oh um, Hi sure the white boy who sent her on a emotional rollercoster." He says shaking Rhodeys hand. "Okay rule number one don't touch me." Rhodey says walking away. Bryce looked at me. "Never said he was nice" I say following Rhodey.

"So this is Sway Headquarters?" Rhodey says walking into our house. Yes we brought Rhodey back to the house because i know these boys aren't about to get this stuff out this house. "Yup" I say taking the leash off of Oasis. "Not bad for young adults" He says looking around. "Your niece remodeled it" Bryce says. "I can tell" He looks at me. "I HEAR A RHODEY!" Mary yells from her room. "That little gremlin is here too?" He says looking at me. "What are you talking about me and Mary are connected to the hip. Never leaving without her" I say. "What happened to college?" Rhodey says raising his eyebrows. "Not smart enough for college" Mary says jumping on him. Bryce looked at me. "Just wait" I say. Rhodey grabbed her leg and pulled her off. "You guys aren't five anymore jesus" He says fixing himself. "Who's tall melanin man?" Jaden says with a bag of child in his hand. "Dude the boys have to meet Rhodey, BOYS COME MEET RHODEY!"Mary says running to the Gym. "Kids?" he says. "Kinda" I say nodding. Soon after the boys came down. "Who's this?" Josh whispers. "Guys this is Rhodey.... Rhodey boys" I say looking away.They went to go dap him up. "Boys dont touch him" I say covering my mouth. They backed away. Rhodey looked at all the boys. Mary came to my side. "Yall really live with them?" Rhodey points at them while looking at us. "That one right there's my boyfriend" Mary say pointing at Blake. Me and Rhodey stared at each other- Yanno there's been way too much eye contact its insane. "Disgusting" I say over my shoulder. I looked around and swatted away a fake fly. "Oh my god who said that?" I play clueless. "You're a bitch" Mary says punching me in the chest. I flew back but didn't fall. "Coochie slap!" I say slapping her in the cooch and the running over to Bryce. "DUDE!" She whines. "Are yall deadass right now?" Rhodey says. "Sorry."We both say.
"Alright... Why am I here again Maleah?" Rhodey says rubbing his chin while looking at me. My mouth dropped. "You said you were gonna help get the stuff into the new house?" I say turning my head. "Why wouldn't want new stuff in a new house?" He says raising his eyebrows. "But I don't want Lori to have what I have in here." I say folding my arms. "Okay? we can just move that house and you can whatever you want in there... But not all of it" He says. "Thats...what?"I say. "Look ill be over in the morning and we can discuss what you wanna take and what you don't" He says. Bryce cleared his throat. I looked at him. "What?" I say low that only me and him could. hear it. "We have that thing in the morning." he whines. My jaw dropped. "Ohhh yeah- What about Thursday." I say looking at Rhodey. "Tomorrow." He says. "Okay. Thursday" I say nodding. He looked at me. "Maleah." He says staring at me. "Jamal." I say staring back. "Either tomorrow or you guys move it yourself." He says. "Yeah, tell that to my dad" I say nodding. He sighed. "Fuck" He says. "Sooo Thursday?" I say looking at my nails. "Yeah" He says showing himself out.
"And just like that she's Big Dawg" Jaden says. I laughed. "What were you two whispering about?" Mary smirks. I furrowed my eyebrows and pointed at her "Me and my boyfriend are going out later tonight and won't be back until tomorrow evening" I say. "Where ya going?" She says. "Not corny ass Malibu that's forsure" I snickered. "Hey!" Blake says. "If you haven't been to Malibu just say that." Griffin says. "If you haven't had pussy in a while just say that." I say looking at him. "You just have a mean bone don't you?" He says. I shrugged. "I guess it pops out when you're tryna fuck with me... It's like a shield."I say rubbing my arm. It was an awkward silence with all of us just standing around.
"So...." Noah says looking at his watch. "Food?" Jaden says. "I can eat." I shrug. "Good because you're buying sister" Noah says grabbing my keys and purse. "Wha- are you kidding me?" I say. "Yup, and wing's sound amazing I might try four sauces tonight" Blake says. My eyes widen. "So Bdubs?" I say looking at my phone. Blake had this surprised look on his face like he wasn't thinking of it. "Ooo Bdubds sounds immaculate Mal!" He says shocked and pushed me towards the door. I whined and opened the door. "Bryceeee you're driving!" I yell. "I know." He says grabbing my keys.
