Forever yours

Ch. 23 Love Can't Explain

"Do you love me?"

I don't know exactly why I asked... But I just want to know. He's told me about our past and I don't remember any of it. If we've dated for this long and we've gotten through so much, then he's probably told me he loves me before right?

"Do I love you?" Shit... I don't think he ever has told me. I turned my head and stared away from the stranger in my room named shawn.

"Of course I do" I turned back to him and he looked extremely happy. "Shelbi... If the things that we've gotten through togther isn't love, then I don't know what is." I smiled at him but I didn't know how to respond to him.

"This isn't exactly how I wanted to tell you though" I chuckled a little, "sorry about that..." His smiled faded a little. "So where do we stand Shawn? I mean I want to be able to say 'I love you' as well but I just can't when I don't remember you..." He took my hand in his and squeezed it tight.

"I'm gonna go back with you, I will get an apartment or something and I will get you your memory back. My tour can wait and my fans can understand." I nodded.

"Okay, but can you do me a favor?" He leaned forward "anything" I plugged my nose "can you go shower? You stink" He chuckled. "Yeah, I'll be back in a few okay?" I nodded in agreement and he stood and he started to lean in for a kiss and I kindah freaked. I think he realized that I wasn't use to what he might have done so he just kissed my forehead.

"I'll be back" and after that he left the room. I honestly don't know exactly what I'm going to do...

I mean he's Shawn mendes! I've loved him since I've heard his song on the radio, but I don't think I'm the same girl. But if he actually loves me the way he said he does, then maybe its worth the fight.

I wanted to get up and walk so I pulled off my blankets and swung my legs over the edge of the bed, baby steps. I grabbed on to my IV thingy and used it to pull myself up. My legs felt week buy I managed to make it a few steps before I fell.

"Ow, fuck" someone came into my room "are you okay?" It was a boy, so I nodded and he helped me up. "I'm Shelbi" he smiled "i'm David" he seems like a nice guy.

He put my arm around his neck and helped me walked "i'm guessing you'd like some fresh air?" I nodded and we started to walk towards the exit.

"Just a little farther" we got outside and he started to walk me towards this white van "um David I need to go back in now" he pulled me harder and faster "no your not" we got to the white van and he opened the door.

"Help!" David started to push me into the van "hey!" These two security men from the hospital ran out. "This isn't over" David dropped me and hoped in the van and drove away. The security guards got to me "are you okay?" I started to shake "I want Shawn" it felt weird saying that but he's the only one here who could possibly understand what happened, and he cares about me.

The two men helped me back to my room and about 10 minutes later Shawn bolted through my door with dripping wet hair. The minute I saw him is when I broke down, I don't know how I was holding it together before.

He came over to my bed and crawled under the covers with me. He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me to his chest "don't worry I got you" my sobs became a little quieter but tears were still streaming down to his chest.

"Why do they want me Shawn? What did I do?" I don't understand why people are after me and want to hurt me... I didn't do anything...

"They want you to hurt me..." What? I looked up at him and my years stopped for the moment. "That's what Bethany wants... And David is like her puppet, he will doing anything for her and I'm sure of it." But what did Shawn do?

"She doesn't like the idea of me and you being together, she wants to ruin my reputation..." Oh...

We both stayed silent and I was glad, this was all to much to process. I decided to get some sleep so I laid my head on Shawn's chest and fell asleep to nightmares of David and a white van.
