As we all know, there probably won't be a Met Gala this year where Camila and Shawn will be attending together, so just imagine Shawn's outfit from the Met Gala in 2019 with the gold in his hair and Camila's black dress at the Grammys 2020. This is how they attend the imaginary 2021 Met Gala in this book lol.

As soon as Devante leaves, I make my way to the kitchen and see Mia having a discussion with Elijah who wraps his arms around her when she tries to push him away. She wipes her tears away when Elijah says something in her ear and I see her nodding and mouthing "thank you".

My eyes get drawn to the television where I see Taylor Swift posing at the Met Gala. Sky put on a live stream of the Met Gala, nice, maybe we get to see Shawn. I sit down across from her while we watch what one of the interviewers is saying on the big tv screen.

'Some of those dresses are just horrible!' Sky shouts at the television.

I nod in agreement and watch as the camera moves to the other side of the stairs, seeing Shawn Mendes wrapping his arm around Camila Cabello's waist as they pose in front of the camera together. 

I don't know why I feel so jealous all of a sudden? There is a big knot in my stomach and I want to throw a glass at the tv. The only time I felt like this before was when I saw Elijah kissing another woman, and that was a while ago before he even took my virginity.

I look over at Elijah again and we lock eyes. He raises his eyebrow and walks over to me, putting his hands on the back of the chair as he stands behind me.

'You and Mia will be sleeping in the dormitory again.' He whispers in my ear.

For a moment I thought he was going to whisper something sexy in my ear, but I couldn't have been more wrong. I turn around and look into his eyes, hoping he's joking, but his look doesn't change. Is he serious?

'What? Why?' I ask.

'We have to make another Blue Room and your room is the only one that fits all the stuff.' He says, softly touching my cheek with his thumb.

I close my eyes for a moment and nod slowly.

'How about Mia's son?'

'I told her she could sleep in my room with him when he visits and that I'll sleep with you those nights.' He smirks.

'Nice try. You can sleep in her bed if she sleeps in yours.' I touch his surprisingly soft beard with my hand before focussing my attention back on the tv.

Elijah sits down next to me and also watches the celebrities walking around at the Met Gala. I recognise Liza Koshy leading the interview with Shawn Mendes and it's nice to see how down to earth Shawn is in front of the camera.

'Also, Jered Leto's is walking around with a head, have you seen that?' Shawn asks Liza.

Everyone in the kitchen starts to laugh and the cameraman zooms into Jared Leto, holding a replica of his own head in his hand.

'It's freaking me out... I'm doing everything in my power to stay far... far away.' Shawn chuckles.

Sky laughs and almost chokes on her water.

'I love him!' She laughs.

'Yeah, he's great.' I smile too.

I'm not going to lie, that black suit looks amazing on him. And Camila is wearing a beautiful black dress, they are perfect for each other.

The next interview is with Harry Styles and I suddenly see Sky climbing onto the table, screaming her lungs out as soon as he starts talking. Elijah gestures to her to keep it down but she doesn't really care.
