Love on the ice (s.m. & c.c.)

Soulmates (chapter 18)

Shawn POV

Camila and I went in my room and right as she entered it, she immediately saw a picture of me when I was a baby.

,,Oh my god! You were adorable!" She said as she looked at the picture.

,,Am I not adorable anymore?" I asked smirking and she giggled.

,,You are. Just in another way. In a hot adorable way. Back then you were cute adorable." She said and that caused me to laugh softly.

,,I'm hot, huh?" I smirked.

,,Adorable hot." She added and smirked back.

,,Camila? Would you play with us?" Aaliyah suddenly entered the room and asked.

,,Sorry sis. She's mine now." Shawn said and Aaliyah giggled as she walked away. ,,What do you wanna do?" He asked after Aaliyah left.

,,I don't know." I said and we both stayed there awkwardly not knowing what to do. ,,We can go outside after dinner and play with snow."

,,That would be cool. You three are staying the night, right?"

Camila POV

,,Yeah. That's what our parents agreed to." I said and there was again an awkward silence.

Oh god... Why was this so awkward!? It was never awkward between us! When it was silent it was because it was a comfortable silence, but now! Now it's just so weird.

,,Should I put on some music?" Shawn asked breaking the silence.

,,Yeah."

,,You can sit down. You know that, right?" He said as he put on some Christmas songs.

I sat down on his bed and it was so weird, but at the same time it felt so normal. I stroke the sheets of his bed with my hand, thinking that he was sleeping there. As he slept with me at the hospital, I remember waking up in the middle of the night and watching him sleep. He always looked so peaceful and....perfect. He looked perfect like every single day and that's because he is perfect. For me.

,,Hey..." Shawn said and sat next to me on the bed.

,,Yeah?"

,,Can I ask you something?"

,,Of course." I said and looked him deep into the eyes.

,,Well...ahm...was I...your first kiss?" He asked and I realized I didn't tell him he was.

,,Yeah..." I said shyly and felt my cheeks starting to burn.

,,I wish you were mine too..." He said and put his hand on my cheek and started rubbing it lightly with his thumb.

,,Why? I mean....I know from what you told me that Aria wasn't the best girlfriend, but you loved her..."

,,No... I didn't love her... I liked her, but I didn't love her. Now I understand that I never did cause I love someone now..."

I didn't say anything thinking that I overheard him so I blinked a few times trying to wake up from my dream, but it wasn't a dream. It was real and I felt my heart racing like crazy.

,,I mean you Mila. I think I'm falling in love with you..." He said and continued rubbing his thumb on my cheek.

,,Shawn- I-....I-"

Why the fuck couldn't I say anything!? Speak, Camila! Speak! Tell him you love him too! Arghhhh! Why couldn't I form any words!? What's wrong with me!? The boy I love just told me he loves me and I can't speak!? Na ah! This is NOT happening! Na ah!
