Whats up?📱

Watching some annoying adverts. For real: how much is there to tell about washing powder?!📲
It's an important item in a functioning household.📱
But that important?!📲
I'm happy you're tuning in. Despite the washingpowder-thing.📱
You excited?📲
Little bit. Well.
Yes. A lot. I mean yes. I am.
I miss you.📱
I miss you too.
Though you'll be at home in like ... seven hours?📲
Yup. Seven hours is right.📱
I wish we could talk right now.Mandy
I'm sitting in the apartment on the sofa, watching the tv, waiting for the show to begin. Suddenly my phone rings.
It's Shawn.I pick up the FaceTime call and Shawn's face appears on screen. His hair's messy and he's holding a cup of coffee in his hands onto the icon of The Ellen Show.
"Oh hey", I push back a curl hoping I don't look like I got in touch with electricity lately.
I do look like I got in touch with electricity.But Shawn likes my curls (and I like them most of the time, too), so I'm not thinking too much about it. I lift my smartphone a bit. "When I wrote I wish we could talk, I didn't mean like right now. Aren't you busy?!"
Shawn's laughing softly. "Hey."
It only needs this little Hey to make the butterflies dance in my stomach wildly. I hem. "Hey."
We smile at each other.
"So. Actually I'm waiting for my entrance - it's in-", Shawn looks at his watch. "In five minutes. I just thought I'd call through."
"I'm glad you did." I can hear some stage workers running up and down in the background. "Be careful that nobody sees my face."
"I am, I am." Shawn's grinning. "Though nobody would notice - they're very occupied with preparing the show."
"The show - how's the atmosphere?"
"It's good. I wasn't on a lot of Late Night Shows lately, so it feels a bit new, but it's good." Shawn smiles and shrugs a bit awkwardly. "The last time I was here I was twenty-two I mean. That's quite a while."
"That's really quite a while. But you're not twenty-two anymore, so you can deal with all of this in a different way now", I say, knowing what Shawn's occupying.
He runs his fingers through his hair. The stylists will probably shed a tear. "It's making me nervous thinking how many people are watching this. I tend to forget that."
"Then forget it", I suggest. "Maybe just think of how many people you know in person and who like you are watching?"
"That's a good idea. Ally wrote me a few mins ago and wished me luck and Connor did send me some encouraging GIFs, so yeah I like that."
"Good to hear." We grin at each other. Shawn hems. "So, what have you been doing today?"
"I've been studying and making some music. Been writing on a new song. Wrote on our duet. I think I found one or two lyrics we can change so it sounds more round."
"Great to hear. I'd ask you to play it immediately to me - I've got my guitar over here". Shawn holds up his guitar, "but I think I shouldn't sing a duet with you here behind the stage. Then we could also do it on the stage."
I laugh. "Well then better not. Later maybe."
"I'd love to perform with you on stage, not that you misunderstand that", Shawn twinkles. "It'll be fun."
"Nah, I don't know. We'll see." I try to hide my smile but Shawn eventually sees the corners of my mouth lifting a bit.
He looks at his watch again. "So, I think I need to prepare to go on stage now. I'll give you a call when I'm on my way home?"
I nod. "I'm probably waiting up for you."
"There's no need to - you need your sleep."
"Thank's. I think I can deal with some hours less sleep", I say. "But we'll see. At least I'm here and not over half the Atlantic."
"Yeah, that's a little difference", Shawn laughs.
"Good luck Shawn."
"Thank's. See you later Jane Doe."
"See you later too John Doe."
