rate: 10 💦 tbh: idk y’all that well, but y’all were cool but admin logan was better.

SHAI had the goofiest grin ridden on her facial features after nailing the shot to his forehead, and just based on his reaction, she couldn’t hold her laughs back any longer until he’d trotted over to her and put her into a headlock with ease.  ❛   now, if i was to elbow you in that gut, i’d be a villain in your origin story.  ❜  she chuckled as her friend was easing up on the hold amidst the sounds of commotion coming towards their group from all angles.  ❛   no, because you had me thinking it was a bug and —   ❜  at first she thought nothing of the loudness but seeing how persistent and rowdy it was getting, it immediately halted her words.  ❛   oh, nah. what’s happening right now?   ❜  she raised her eyebrow as she got up from her seat and started to gather it to go.  ❛   they locking niggas up!?   ❜  she asked the rhetoric watching as her peers were being taken in handcuffs. before she could even move her feet herself, her hands were being placed behind her back to be cuffed as well.  ❛   oh, you gotta be fuckin’ kidding me right now.  i don’t know shit about shit, i mind my business!   ❜  SHAI’S immediate defenses were falling on deaf ears; it seemed as if the officers on the scene had clear motives when they received the call about the disturbance. annoyed wasn’t even the word, more like disgust was ridden all over her face at this point as she peered up at trent.  ❛   if we both get locked up, who gon’ bail us out?   ❜

feeling something hit the back of her head, SHAI’S immediate first thought was that a bug had flown into her hair. internally, she started to panic immediately as she braced herself by holding tightly onto the arm rest of the chair she sat in. when she didn’t feel any further movement from the object, she gulped as she reached into the back of her hair to see what it was before she lost her shit. when she pulled it out, and found it to be a gummy bear, the femme kissed her teeth as she whipped her head around and searched for the culprit. there was no guiltier party than trent with the way he was staring off at nothing. nodding her head, she drank down most of her water bottle, leaving the tiniest bit in the bottom before she reinforced the top and launched the light plastic square at his forehead before she teasingly and childishly stuck her tongue out at him.

❛   i just think the opportunity can’t be missed!   ❜  SHAI chuckled under her breath, her shoulders shrugging which accompanied the smug grin she wore on her face.  ❛   it would definitely be good for a whodunit type of activity. i don’t know, i might have to write that down for spooky season.   ❜  she reasoned with him. while it might not have been the best idea to divulge in while they were all sitting outside in the dark, it did make her mind wander and she wondered if anyone had the same train of thought she was having.  ❛   well! are you quick on your feet? that’s what it’s gonna come down to. your legs are pretty long, so i’ll feel like you’ll make it quickly. but also… what you running for?   ❜  only one of her eyebrows raised as she tilted her head down to side-eye sharife.  ❛   you’re supposed to be out here protecting us!   ❜  already knowing, she jokingly shook her head slowly in disapproval.

after setting up her chair for the movie, SHAI went to grab herself a plate of barbecue and some snacks she could enjoy throughout the duration, before she joined everyone else in the general area where the movie would be playing.  ❛   i’ve always thought movies under the stars were such cute ideas, but i guess i hadn’t put much thought into how eery it could be, because a halloween night could turn this whole event around.   ❜  with squinted eyes, she was skeptical as she spoke to the person(s) in her vicinity.  ❛   like if somebody starts screaming, i’m gon’ have to book it. it’s too damn dark out here for all that!   ❜

SHAI was already at the beach ahead of mostly everyone since she had spent most of the day, sitting out catching a tan and just enjoying the peaceful scenery alone that she wasn’t always able to get while traveling with a crowd. so, when everyone started to file in for the party, she felt recharged and more than ready to enjoy herself again. it was no shock to her when she spotted her best friend with a bottle in tow as she sat down on her own towel. SHAI took it upon herself to plop down next to her and join.  “   hey, bestie!   ”   she greeted aria with a bright smile.  “   what is this? it better be good, let’s see.   ”  she was skeptical on whether or not that was actually a fact, but nodded her head to accept the offer anyways.

SHAI’S grin was super smug as she leaned back slightly to rest her back up against the back of the chair she was sitting in. her manicured nails aimlessly tapping against the clothed table whilst airy chuckles escaped her slightly parted lips. even if the air between the two of them had been thick lately, they would always get right back to how they usually were more often than not and she was sure an actual conversation concerning that aura would come at some later point.  “   of course i’ll share. don’t i always share?   ”

locking eyes with her best friend, SHAI couldn’t help the laughter that came right after their moment of silence as they were both sitting down at the table fashionably late at the same time.  “  leave it up to us to be late! i’m surprised you made it here this early, though. that’s not like you, i’m so proud.  ”   she laughed softly, acknowledging how long-winded she could sometimes be with a lighthearted joke attached.  “   listen! especially if it gets wet. then it’s over. i didn’t even bring a flat iron or nothing, so it’s definitely going in a bun or something for the rest of the trip.  ”   she held her hands up in defense as she shook her head slowly amidst coming to her own conclusion.  “   oh my goddd, you’re gonna be so slumped! you can’t get everything or you will never see this beautiful place!  ”   she complained, and then took a sip from her water immediately after. almost choking on the flavorless liquid upon hearing aria’s bucket-list items for her.  “   what? why’re you putting my p*ssy up for sale? what about yours, miss mamas!?  ”   she asked with her eyebrows etched together in confusion.

   “   oh, of course! i have to, it’s no way you can come here and not have any rum, right? i just know it’s gonna have some people laid out.   ”  with her lips pressed together in a pout, SHAI gave noël an all-knowing look for the anticipation of some people not being able to hold their liquor, before shaking her head with a chuckle.  “   that’s the main thing, though. i just need all of the good eats, and i’ma be fine. the heat’s not even gonna bother me anymore.   ”

taken aback by the fact that amena was speaking to ⎯ or even acknowledging her, since there hadn’t been much of that lately, SHAI’S already doe-like eyes had widened as she tilted her head to the side slightly, the corners of her mouth frowning as she made eye contact with the femme.  “   oh, look who’s talking now!   ”  the woman recounted smugly.  “   i do mean it wholeheartedly. it’s very hot, and i’m sweating. how is that cute?   ”  she asked the question dumbfounded, but with a chuckle.  “   that all sounds very good to me too, so you must be sharing!   ”
