One Shadow on the Wall One Coffee Cup (a Hunter Hayes Fanfic)

Chapter 11

In two more days, I'm meeting Hayley! I'm on a flight out to Tennessee right now, and the concert is tomorrow. The two of us exchanged numbers, and we've ben texting non-stop.

Hayley: What if we met up today when you land! I'm eating lunch at Panera in an hour, and your plane lands in a half an hour. We could meet up at Panera!

Me: YAAAAASSSSS!

Hayley sends me the information for the address of Panera Bread, and I'm an anxious wreck until the plane finally lands!

After what feels like forever, I get myself a rental car, and drive off to Panera. When I park at the meter, I halt before inserting my money. I make sure I have my present for her, and that I look okay. I hope I live up to the expectations she has for me!

I insert enough money in the meter for an hour and a half, and take my first steps down the road to Panera. Walking by, I only manage to see a hand wave me down, before that person running around a corner. I chase after who I assume is Hayley, until I turn the corner to realize that the blue eyed person I'm hugging, is a boy!

None other than Hunter Easton Hayes.

The following words I say spew out of my mouth so quickly that I can't keep up with what I'm saying. I'm a mixture of all emotions. Happy, sad, embarrassed, angry, excited, and so much more.

"How could you lie to me this whole time? For months, are you kidding me?"

"Well, after the concert, I was told that you didn't like me. So I fought all urges to see you again, so I wouldn't bother you. That was until I found out that you were still a fan, and still loved me. I knew that you wouldn't want to talk to me personally, so I created Hayley. I treated you just like I would, and honestly, forgot why I had even started. I felt like we had started over, and were just good friends."

I scoff and turn my head in annoyance. Yet, it's kind of cute what he went through just to see me again.

"Well, you forgot why you had even started. This whole entire time I was waiting to meet my amazing GIRL best-friend at a concert. I told you all these personal stories and stuff, and you just rolled with it, acting as someone else."

"Well, that just goes to show you that you can tell me anything," he laughs. I try my best to hide back a small chuckle, but eventually let out a small cough/laugh. He's just too cute.

I know I should be angry at him, but how could I. It all turned out okay, and now we may be getting our second chance. Plus he went through so much, and all for me. I was able to tell him everything, and have him there for me through it all, even when my supposed friends weren't. How could I possibly hate him for this?

"So what do you say we grab some food, and get ready for this concert I'm putting on?" He extends out his hand in exchange for mine, and I take it. We happily swing our hands in unison, proudly into Panera Bread.

We a greeted by a smiling waitress, who knows in an instant, who Hunter is.

"Please, please don't draw any attention to us. I'd like to keep this in private for a bit of time," he says.

The waitress, whose nametag reads Samantha, completely understands where Hunter is coming from, and agrees to let us have our peace.

We are seated and have a struggle on deciding what to have. Eventually, we both agree on the Chicken Tortellini Alfredo. Conversations come easily from the two of us, until our meal arrives, and we are instantaneously forced to stop talking, and not resume until finished. The meal was that great. After we finish our pasta dish, we strike conversations back up, and we find that people that arrived after us, are leaving before us!

"Wow, we've really been here a long time," I acknowledge.

He chuckles for a second. "I don't really mind though," we replies as he grabs my hand in his on the table.

"I've loved you since the day I laid eyes on you. You were different, in a good way. You treated me like a normal person, not a famous singer. You made me feel happy and amazing like I've never felt before. You are stunning, beautiful, funny, kind, and so much more. Thinking that I had lost you was the worst feeling I ever had. I honestly felt like my heart was ripped in half, I could feel the aching. I swear I must be the luckiest man alive to have someone like you in my life. Anyone who's hurt you or disrespected you in the past clearly doesn't deserve you, and understand how truly beautiful you are, inside and out. I've never met someone that makes me feel the way I do when I'm around them. I love you beyond words Shayna Aubat. I'm blessed beyond belief. I love you so much." He had ben staring me in the eyes the whole time, and I am on the verge of tears from what he has said. Nobody had ever made me feel as wanted as Hunter. (lol WANTED!)

I place my hand on top of his. "I love you to, Hunter Hayes." A small smile creeps across my face before Hunter gently presses his lips to mine. So delicate, and can tell a story as you kiss them. In perfect sync, we continue, not caring who sees. This is what love is. I love Hunter Easton Hayes. And Hunter Easton Hayes loves me.
