Little Wonders ((Shansel))

Chapter 2 》My Fault

Shailene...

I am searching through my luggage for a decent dress. I should have one in here. I told Miles I'd go to the Fantastic 4 NYC movie premiere with him.

Found it!

I take my red dress. I put it on and quickly did my hair. The red dress was slim fitting. I took one last look in the mirror and got into the limo I hired. Miles got into his.

I talked to some fans and took photos with them. Then when all the signing was over, We walked into the theatere.

((A/N: There are NO spoilers. Don't wanna give any spoilers. Also GO SEE THE MOVIE FOR YOURSELF!))

When the movie was over, some paps walked up to me.

"Shai. What brings you here?"

"Shai whats going on with Alliegent?"

"What are you doing at this movie premiere?"

"Did you come with Miles?"

"How have you been?

"I'm here for a break from filming. Everythings fine. Yeah I came here for Miles. I've been AWESOME!" I say to the microphones raising my voice so the paps could hear me.

I watch Miles and the cast get their pictures taken. Then, I take more pictures with fans. I attend the party afterwards with the cast.

Back at the hotel, I am in Miles' room. I congartulate him and we talk.

Ansel...

Violetta isn't showing up at my apartment as we planned yesterday. I decide to call her. When I look down at my phone, there was a text from Violetta.

Vi: had a talk with my highschool friend, Daniel yesterday. I know you're too busy with everything. And.. 11:00 pm

Vi: I think the right thing to do is we break up. Don't tell me you would put your career aside for me and stuff. I know it, I don't want to hear it. This is what's good for both of us. Also, Daniel and I have been getting to know eachother better so don't worry about me. Sorry, I love you forever
-Vi 11:05 pm

The tiny words on the screen become a blur. I bite my lip.

Shailene...

My cellphone begins to ring.

"Is it okay if I take it? I ask Miles.

"Yeah, sure." He says shrugging.

The caller is Ansel. I answer it.

"Hello?" I say.

"I'm outside your hotel." He says

I notice the wobble in his voice and ask "Are you crying?"

"What's your hotel room number?" He asks.

"Actually. I'm with Miles. His is 2421."

He hangs up and a second later the doorbell rings.

Miles offers to get the door so he does.

"Yay Ansel!" He says in a child's voice then seriously, "what brings you here?"

"I.." he said "Well since no one's coming over tonight, I just wanted to see you guys."

He walks over to me. "You don't want me here?"

"No," I say "its nice to see you. How is everything?"

He hugs me and Miles locks the door.

"I just thought... you were spending time with Violetta."

He pulls away and I realise that his eyes are red.

"Is everything okay?" I ask.

"No." He says.

Miles pulls a chair over.

"Whats wrong?" I ask sitting down and so does he. Miles sits on the bed.

"Not much except Violetta sorta nicely dumped me."

"Oh. Like the way girls kinda make excuses all the time when they wanna break up?" I frown at Miles.

"No. I mean they weren't excuses they were facts. Like I really never do spend time with her. I'm so busy."

I scoff. "She said that?"

"Well kinda."

"I can't believe it." I say "psh. You put your career aside so much for her."

"She also told me she knows that I would tell her that. So she said she doesn't want to hear it."

"At least she told you all this in person." Miles adds.

"She didn't. She texted me all this. She texted to not worry about her since she's now with her highschool friend, Daniel. I barely knew him in highschool though." He said.

"This is so stupid." I say. "She knows you would put your career aside for her and make time for her."

"I would. But I think she means I never post about her on social media and everytime I do, she gets hate."

I am speechless. I didn't realise. How can I be so dumb. "Ansel I'm so sorry. I put you through all this. I didn't know how much it effected you... The Fault in Our Stars, how close we are and things. I did not know fans would react like this. I don't have social media. I'm so sorr- Its all my fault."

"Shut up, Shailene. None of this is ever, was ever your fault." He says, his eyes glassy.

I don't want it to be my fault but it feels like it is and at this moment the only thing I want to do is apologize. "No Ansel I can't have you blame anyone else but m-"

"Shut up!" Miles says "You're making him feel worse."

I look down, guilty.

"Look, Shai. I didn't come here so you could blame yourself." Ansel says and walks out.

"Wait," I say but the door slams shut.

"What did I do?" I ask myself.

"You made him upset." Miles answers for me.

I sit next to Miles "You're not upset at me are you?" I ask.

"No." He says and I lean my head on his shoulder.
