A/N: I'm debating a name change. Which do you guys prefer 'Sky Hunt' or 'Theo Hunt'?

Chapter 6

With my back relaxed on my car, I wringed my fingers twisting and turning as Shawn Mendes blares Stiches out the earphones that I have on. Apart from a few gospel songs, this is my all time favorite. I never get tired of the song and I have no idea why. The video completely blew my mind and it's one song amongest a few that I can play to the loudest out in my room without Ma screaming at me saying it's too violent or trashy for my ears.

I think Ma likes Shawn Mendes too.

Playing with my fingers as I wait— occasionally looking at the students coming out the school building — I remember lashing out at Jamal earlier today because he kept joking about a date with Sky

"Would you stop saying things like that," I had shouted at him, after dragging him into an empty. "It's not a date and would never be."

"Chill Issy, I was just joking man." He said raising both hands up for peace.

"Joking," I repeated to myself, pacing a bit. "Why? You know how I feel about that Jamal. It doesn't make sense and I would never date a guy!"

"Fine!" Jamal yelled back surprising me. "Don't get your homophobic ass all up in my face because of a harmless joke okay? I ain't the cause of your issues."

I glared at him, if I was a violent person, I would have punched him right there.

"You do whatever you want," he said before turning around and leaving but not before spitting out a word at me. "Stupid."

"You're the stupid one!"

Now I know that I'm indeed stupid, I shouldn't have come at him like that when we're friends and he was really just joking. I can't even explain why I got that mad, it's so unlike. I was projecting the turbulence I was feeling inside over Sky's annoying smile on him. He really didn't deserve that.

I pull out my phone and quickly type out a sorry to him hoping he forgives me and we go back to normal. I push my phone into my pockets and look back at the school double doors as people exited the building. I almost bail on Sky, I don't see the point of this and I'm probably not going to go. I'm just waiting here to see him so I can tell him that and he wouldn't think I'm an ungrateful brown kid who ran away after he fixed my car up for me. I won't even feel right if I just go, I have to wait and see him then I'll go.

But then he was sure taking his time leaving the school.

I see his teal sweater first before I make out his full body walking out, flanked by two blond girls. The girls were laughing and he had his smile on as usual. It must hurt for him to smile that much every time, I think to myself. I think to see if I know the girls but nothing comes on and before I know it, the girls are waving their manicured fingers at him — one even placed a kiss on his cheek, before leaving.

Sky doesn't waste any time finding me and when he starts walking to me, I straighten up.

"Hi Israel," he says nodding at me and casually leaning on my car, too close to me.

I pull off the car and back out a bit, "done having fun in there?" I ask a bite in my tone.

He raises both brows at me before he lowers his head, chuckling to himself.

"What's so funny?" I ask getting irritated as I cross my arms.

"Sorry," he apologizes as he looks back at me. "It's just we have got to stop greeting like this. I greet and you ask me a question next," he tsks swiping his tongue over his lip. "Looks like it's becoming our thing."
