Chanel's POV
Thank God it's finally Friday. I found out a couple days ago that my mom does not play. I swore I was getting my phone back; she still has it as we speak. I've been having short conversations with her all week. I still don't like what she did but what can I do?
I went in the bathroom to wash up and get ready. Usually I eat something at school so I just wait out here for my dad. I heard their room door open and when I looked it was my mom.
"Text Rachel and Damien and tell then we're on our way." she said.
"Where's dad?" I asked.
"I'm taking you today." she said.
"Okay." I said.
I text Damien and Rachel and told them we were on our way. It was quiet while we were in the truck and if I wanted Rachel to come back to New York with me I better start talking.
"Ma" I said.
"Yeah." she answered.
"Can Rachel come to New York with us for the weekend?" I asked.
"Do you have school next week?" she asked.
"Nope." I said.
"Okay, I have to talk to her mom after school." she said.
"Okay." I said.
We picked up Damien and Rachel and we we were headed for school.
"Hi Mrs. Carter, you're looking lovely this morning." Rachel said.
"Rach, she already said yes." I said laughing.
"Oh! Well still nice to see you Mrs. Carter." she said smiling.
"Nice to see you too Rachel." my mom said.
My mom drove us to school as we sang and rap to almost every song on the radio. When we got to school Rachel and Damien got out and my mom told me to hold on. She was just looking at me.
"Are you done with your little silent treatment?" she asked.
"I didn't give you the silent treatment." I said.
"How many times have you talked to me since Tuesday?" she asked.
I just looked out the window.
"Just because I or your father punish you doesn't mean you can start ignoring us." she said. "I told you there was going to be consequences for actions."
"I know but all this rule stuff is kind of new to me." I said. "I usually do my own thing."
"Well, we'll work on it." she said and kissed my forehead. "Okay, now get out before you're late."
"See ya." I said.
I walked up to Damien and Rachel and we started to walk in the building.
"Rachel, we gonna have so much fun this weekend. Damien you sure you don't want to go?" I asked.
"Nah, I'm gonna chill with my grandmother and convince her to let me go to school up there." he said.
"Alright, oh yeah I gotta text Christian and tell him I'm coming back up there." I said.
"Who's Christian?" Rachel asked.
"Christian Combs." I said.
"Oh you hanging with celeb kids now." she said. "I see you."
"Man, it's not even like that." I said.
"Yeah, that's her trouble buddy." Damien said.
"Shut up!" I said.
"Wait; was that the boy with the arcade?" Rachel asked.
"Yep!" Damien said.
"Oh, you like them bad boys." she said laughing.
I simply left them there laughing while I went to class.
Shawn's POV
Ugh! I don't like packing. I'm waiting for Bey to comeback so we can get some breakfast. I wonder what's on sports center.
I'm sitting here watching it when I hear the door open and in walks Bey. She sat her purse down on the coffee table and sat down next to me.
"Are you ready to leave the DMV?" I asked her.
"Yeah, I miss my baby." she said.
"I talked to my mom." I told her as she turned around to look at me. "Don't worry she's not mad, but she does want to meet Chanel."
"That's good. Solange asked us to go to dinner so invite her." she said.
"I will." I said. "You packed yet?"
"Yeah, I just gotta pick up Chanel and then talk to Rachel's mom and we'll be set to go." she said.
"Rachel coming?" I asked.
"Yes, your child broke her silence and asked." she said.
"Oh okay." I said.
"I'm hungry." she said out of the blue.
"Me too. Where to?" I asked.
"Let's go to iHop." she said.
We got our hats and sunglasses and went to iHop. It's kind of fun being incognito because most of the time people think they see celebrities but it's so uncommon of that happening that they brush it off.
We went to iHop and no one was really in there. We ordered our food and ate. When we finished we just drove around talking about any and everything. We went back to the hotel and decided to take a nap. Well I thought it was a nap until my cell phone went off.
"Hello?"
"Where y'all at?"
"What time is it?" I asked.
"3:15"
"Oh shit!" I said.
"Yeah! Well I'm going to Rachel's." she said. "Pick us up from there."
"Okay, I'm on my way." I said.
"Okay."
I hung up the phone and looked over at Bey. She was knocked smooth out.
"Bey, Bey." I said as I shook her.
"Hum?" was her response.
"I'm going to get Chanel and Rachel." I said.
"I gotta go to." she said. "I still have to talk to her mother."
"Okay, well hurry up so we can go." I said.
We put our shoes on and left out of the hotel. We got in the truck and left for Rachel's house.
Chanel's POV
"I can't believe they fell asleep." I said as we walked up to Rachel's house.
"Hey, it happens." she said as she unlocked the door. "Ma! We're home."
"Who's we?" her mom asked as she came to view.
"Just me and Chanel." she said. "Oh! And her mom said I can go with them this weekend and she's gonna talk to you when she picks Chanel up."
"Okay, well I guess you got some packing to do." she said.
"Well I'm already packed." Rachel said.
"Well damn." her mother said.
We just laughed and went into Rachel's room. Rachel's room was filled with bow wow posters and a big queen sized bed.
"When you gonna take these posters down?" I asked.
"My dad got them autographed." she said. "They staying."
"Whatever." I said sitting in her bed.
"I can't believe you not gonna be living around the corner no more." she said sitting beside me.
"Yeah, I know. But you can come visit anytime you want." I said.
"Yeah and you better tell me everything that's going on." she said.
"Same goes for you." I said. "I wanna know everything happening at Duke Ellington."
"You know I got you." she said.
We started watching TV until my mom said she was outside and was coming up to the door. I told Rachel and she got her bag so we could meet my mom at the front door. When we got in the living room my mom was sitting with Rachel's mom.
"So you all packed?" her mom asked her.
"Yes." I said.
"Okay well be good for Mrs. Carter." she said.
"Ma! I'm always good." she said smiling.
"Yeah, but I know how you and Chanel are." she said. "So like I said be good."
"We will." I said.
"Okay, we'll nice meeting you Ms. Cooper." my mom said.
"Call me Dana." her mom said.
"Okay, call me Beyoncé." my mom said. "We will be back Tuesday."
Rachel hugged her mom and we went out to the truck.
"Hey dad, have a nice nap." I said getting in.
"I'm sorry Chanel, I didn't expect to sleep that long." he said.
"It's okay." I said. "So what's on the agenda?"
"Well." my mom said. "We get our bags, head to the jet, get home and go to dinner."
"That sounds cool." I said.
"Also, your other grandmother wants to meet you." my dad said.
"Your mom?" I asked him
"Yeah, she really wants to meet you." he said.
"That's cool." I said.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm a bit nervous about this.
