Y/N'S POV:
It's been a month now since I met with Chris. Meaning it's just been over a month since I last talked to Shawn. I didn't take the job because he seemed to want a relationship, and he's cute and all but. It didn't feel right, none of this feels right. I've been ignoring everyone since then. I feel bad but I just need to try to piece my life back together again. I've been going to the gym - tidying up my apartment and doing brand deals. Aaliyah wanted too see me so I'm flying over to Toronto today; just for the weekend though. She told me I won't run into Shawn because he's bringing out new music so he'll be doing press things. 
I finish packing my suitcase and lock my door, heading down for my Uber. 
AIRPORT
 'Y/N'
 'WHERE ARE YOU GOING Y/N?'
 'ARE WE GOING TO GET SHAWN CONTENT!' 
Is  all I hear walking through the airport. And the occasional insult. I can't believe that this is my life now - just by knowing Shawn. My life would of been so different without him, is that a bad thing? Honestly I'm not sure anymore.
----------------------------
TORONTO:
'Aaliyah!! You look stunning??'
 She throws open the door launching herself onto me.
 'God, Y/N I missed you so much. You don't even know.' 
I sigh.
 'trust me, it's been so lonely - you're my little sister!' 
Suddenly Karen and Manny appear at the door. 
'Oh Y/N, we missed you terribly, come here' 
Karen says while engulfing me in a hug.
 'I missed you two guys, I'm so sorry but I just couldn't-' 
Manny interrupts me placing the keys to the door on the side table.
 'Y/N, save it - we know why you left, it doesn't make us love you less.' 
----------------------------
While Karen's putting on the kettle me and Aaliyah head upstairs. 
'How's he been?' 
I can't help myself from still caring about him. She puts her phone down and looks at me. 
'Do you want me to be honest? Or to lie?' 
Oh. I fall back onto the bed- staring up at the ceiling. 
'The truth, even if it stings.' 
'He's been shit Y/N, mad that you said you loved him but then had that Daniel guy snogging you're face off! Least your his new muse though... well - you always have been. He's not gotten out of the studio for weeks.' 
She giggles then comes back to the reality of the situation.
 'I didn't kiss him back! And why would he care anyway? He's had his chance. He could of 'had me' all these years and he hasn't liyah, it's his own fucking fault if he thinks I'm going to just see him and then everything gonna just go back to normal with him.' 
AN: HAHA famous last words yn babe xx
It's the next morning and I'm out on a run, still trying to clear my head. I head onto my favourite cafe and order a smoothie and fruit salad, I wanted a brownie but I held off. I sit in a window seat and stare, something about people watching is just so comforting. I sip on my smoothie, trying to mentally prepare myself for the day. Shawn's new songs are being released today and he's throwing a launch party, and obviously Karen, Manny and liyah are going. Paige can't hang out for whatever reason and Rori is out on a date - I think she's actually getting serious with the guy. 
I head onto twitter to browse whilst I finish my fruit salad - only to see a bunch of pictures of me and Shawn? Now? But he isn't here? Multiple comments read something along the lines of: 
'Finally, mom and dad are finally back together' 
'My babies finally out feeding us content' 
'She's way 2 fit for Shawn, Y/N PLEASE PICK ME' 
I'm scrolling through, still confused. Damn this is a good edit. 
'Long time no see L/N' 
Oh shit.

His second choice (s.m)
Romance---------------------------- "Shawn's been my best friend since high school, he's 24 this year. I've watched his career blossom and I couldn't be more proud of him. I'm in love with him. But I'm sick of being the second choice, so I have to leave." ...
