so after a torturous night of my parents questioning shawn about practically anything under the sun, it was finally morning, thank god. shawn had left after dinner so he wasn't around for long but it was the most awkward dinner i've had in forever, i just wanted to crawl up in a hole, stay there and never come back out.

it was now the morning after that horrific event, i was getting ready to go for mine and shawn's final session with the choreographers, until my phone buzzes, i check it and it's a message from shawn.

shawn
morning, want a ride to the studio?

me
sure ! i'll be ready in like hour tops

shawn
hour? damn ok

i put my phone back down and resume getting ready, i had just taken a shower, i also did my skincare routine so now it's just a matter of getting dressed, hair and makeup, oh and of course - eating.

i throw on a pair of black leggings and a white cami, i also grab a black oversized zip-up, i put my hair into a simple high pony, the last thing i need was for it to get in my way on the last day of rehearsals, i decided on little makeup today so i just did the usual lashes and brows but i threw in a little concealer because i had slight bags under my eyes from staying up to listen to everything my parents asked shawn, not cute.

i then grab my gym bag with all the stuff inside, i had prepared it last night to make sure i wasn't late, throw on my sneakers and go downstairs, texting shawn.

me
having bfast now, won't be long x

shawn
alright i'll drop over in 15?

me
yep

i make myself a bowl of cereal and a coffee, i pretty much scarf that down me in a matter of minutes, i was very hungry today, don't know what came over me.

as soon as i finished i tossed my plates into the dishwasher and went outside to wait for shawn, i shut my front door and there he was outside the gates, looking as stunning as ever, even wearing the most simplest clothes he somehow still manages to look so good, i walk over and open the gates, he opens the passenger door for me and we drive off.

"you nervous?" i ask him, playing with my thumbs as i look out on to the road.

he looks over at me before paying attention back to the road ahead, "about the music video? nah." he says, man he must really be used to making videos then.

"well i am about dropping you, the last thing i'd wanna do is hurt you before your tour, but i'm pretty confident we will get it right." he says with a small laugh, i smile softly and nod, i have full confidence in him to be honest. "oh yeah, when is your album releasing?" he asks curiously.

"juliana said 17th august im pretty sure" i say and he gives me a wide smile, "how about yours?"

"mines coming out 25th september, so like two days before the tour begins, i'm excited." he says with a smile, i love to see how passionate he is about his music.
