Being the son of a preacher, 26 year old Shawn Carter's life hasn't been the most interesting. His everyday life involved mostly church. All that suddenly changes when he meets a special someone with a lifestyle the exact opposite of his.

Shawn held up his phone as he took a picture of the food the waiter had just placed in front of him. Beyoncé wiggled in her seat, so excited to be finally eating for the first time that day.
Shawn always made it a thing to take Beyoncé out to eat every chance he could. Normally, it's once a week. Usually on a Thursday or Friday night. It was an advantage in many ways.
Because food is the key to Beyoncé's heart, their relationship only grows stronger when Shawn feed her what she wants. It also took her away from the club scene and took him away from his boredom.
"Did you just take a picture?" Beyoncé asked him.
"I did."
"Take one of me."
Shawn chuckled and snapped the picture of her. He posted it on Snapchat with the red heart as the caption.
"Do I need to say the prayers?" Beyoncé asked.
"Go ahead."
As they interlocked hands, Beyoncé began to pray over the food, "God may this food nurture our body and not make us fat. Bless the hands that has prepared this Lord, in your son Jesus name I pray, amen."
They looked at one another once she was done and Shawn shook his head. He chuckled to himself before digging in.
In the middle of them eating and talking, Beyoncé's phone began to ring uncontrollably. One missed call turned to five and five turned to fifteen.
"Who called you fifteen times?" Shawn asked, clearly annoyed that whomever was calling had something important to say but Beyoncé ignored them each time.
"JoJo."
"Who is that?"
Beyoncé sighed and turned her entire phone off and placed it in her purse before answering Shawn's question.
"My ex's best friend. I don't know what he could possibly want."
Beyoncé knew only one reason why JoJo would be calling her. Either Allen had his phone or something had happened to Allen that she needed to know about. She silently prayed to herself that it wasn't the latter. No matter how much she spited him, he still was a guy she called herself being in love with.
"Maybe you should call back and see." Shawn suggested. He didn't see the harm because he trusted her. He knew Beyoncé was all his and vice versa. He'll never have to question her love and loyalty for him.
"I'll rather not. Can I get dessert?"
That entire night Beyoncé had a bad feeling about something. She didn't know what it was but her entire vibe was off. She instructed Shawn to take her to his place instead of hers. Once they were at Shawn's house, Beyoncé went to the bathroom and called her brother.
