"Yes!" Samantha spoke unknown of Shawn's presence as she came near Liam.
"Meet Shawn.." Her head snapped to see the man, she met in a bar earlier and her eyes widened in surprise. "Shawn..my cousin Samantha from Montreal." Liam continued confused of the silence that took place between them.
"Hi Samantha! I'm Camila.." Camila smiled stretching her hand instead of Shawn.
"Oh...nice to meet you Camila.." She answered coming out of her zone.
"She's Shawn's wife and very good friend of mine, infact Selena's best friend."
"Right....Um..." She looked at Shawn whose gaze was silently fixed on her. "I have to go..excuse me."
"Yeah sure!" Liam smiled as she left.
"I'm coming in a minute." Shawn stood up from his seat suddenly.
"But where you going?" Camila asked in a worry.
"Just coming don't worry." He squeezed her hand before leaving.
"Ohh I love this song.. let's dance baby!" Liam took Selena's hand but she resisted.
"Selena goooo..its Your wedding, I'm fine." Camila insisted knowing the old habit of her friend who was always concerned about her. Selena got up and started dancing while Camila just smiled at them, clapping lightly.
Few minutes passed and they disappeared in mob while Camila was left alone. Shawn didn't come back and now it started bothering Camila. She looked around herself and felt like someone is secretly keeping an eye on her. As the fear started creeping in her mind, she started panicking and decided to move from that place as she didn't even have a cell phone so she could call Shawn.
"Excuse me.." She asked to a lady who was coming from the backside of the venue cuz she didn't wanna go there alone in search of Shawn.
"Yes..." The lady replied.
"Did you see a guy..i mean a tall guy..with a black curly hair out there?"
"Guy.." The lady stressed her mind. " I saw a couple of guys I guess."
"He was tall and well built and was wearing a blackish maroon button down shirt.."
"I can't tell cuz I didn't see any colour properly..besides it was little dark there but I did see a tall guy going on the pool side where a blonde girl went earlier."
"Blonde girl?" Camila's mind immediately went to Samantha.
"Yeah blonde girl in black dress."
"With white furr on edges?" Camila asked to confirm.
"Yeah..actually I liked her dress so I noticed all the details."
"Okay thankyou." Camila replied halfheartedly.
She decided to move her wheelchair to that place out of curiosity but wished the tall guy wasn't him. She kept moving to find the pool but stopped as she caught the glimpse of the two people standing near edge of a pool. She could see them clearly through a glass wall separating pool area from rest of the place. One with a cigarette and the other one was her husband who promised her that he'd stay by her side all the time. She watched them as they talked and then a sight made her heart sink as she didn't realise that her wheelchair was at the edge of few stairs which lead towards the lawn but it was too late cuz the wheel slipped and the only thing which was clear in that area was Camila's scream.
..................................................
As Shawn came out of the mob, he felt the chill in the night air. Looking for that one specific person, he wanted to meet so badly, his nostrils smelled something, he recognised very well. So he followed the odour of a cigarette smoke and found that girl standing near the edge of a pool with her back facing Shawn.
"So you came here to smoke?"
Shawn's voice once again startled her as she looked behind to find him.
"You are that addict.." He walked to stand beside her.
"I am..." She shrugged and took another hit. "Not gonna lie.."
"Like You never lied in your whole life ehhh.." Shawn taunted with a huff.
"Shawn...you know nothing about me."
"You are Samantha....the one and only who claimed to be my best friend and then acted opposite of it....isnt it enough knowledge I have about you."
"Come on...you can't judge me on the base of that kid I used to be..i am a very changed person now."
"Yeah..you are right.." He laughed again. "When you met me in a bar, you hid your name from me why? Cuz you knew I was Shawn, the same shawn you knew as a kid..didn't You?"
"I did know but I didn't hide my name...you just didn't ask me."
"But you did recognise me...you could've told me."
"I thought you might knew it already like me."
"You think if I knew, I would be sharing things with you."
"Okay...my mistake..i apologise." She gave up. Shawn didn't speak, just stared at the water. "So what happened to her?" She asked making Shawn to move his gaze away from water. "Your wife...I mean she can't walk."
"She will walk very soon..it was an accident but doctors are positive about her condition."
"Right...she is pretty tho..I thought you didn't seem to be a kind of a person who'd marry so quickly."
"It was necessary for both of us...our marriage saved our lives actually. "
"How?"
"I don't think I should tell you all this."
"Okay.." She smiled at his anger cuz he looked hotter with angry face. "Take a hit...you'll feel better.." She offered him the cigarette after taking her hit.
"No.."
"Come on..your wife isn't watching." She joked.
"Its not about her..its about me."
"Okay but one hit won't cause much trouble...I promise."
He took a cigarette, inhaled smoke and exhaled it out. "Just because I wanted to relax-" Before he could finish his sentence, a known scream made his heart beat faster than jet. His head quickly snapped back and his feet started running towards the direction where the scream came from.
"Camila!" A shock was clear on his face as he saw Camila on the ground with her wheelchair inverted on stairs. "Are you alright?" He asked in a worry, grabbing her elbow which she was holding while moaning in pain while Samantha pushed her wheelchair down and placed it in right position.
"It hurts?" He asked again but she didn't answer. "I told you that I'm coming why you came here all alone?"
"I was scared and alone over there. You said you'd be by my side all the time but you left and smoking over here."
He sighed in defeat."I'm so sorry..forgive me!" A guilt flashed on Shawn's face but instead of replying she started crying like a child cuz her heart was full."Don't cry my love! It's fine." He said holding her close to his chest. "We are going to the doctor right now...come on" With those words, he effortlessly picked her up in his arms and stood up. "Can you help me bringing this wheelchair towards my car." He asked Samantha.
"Yeah sure." She replied and started following them.
