Ring! Ring! My phone buzzes and I kind of push it off to the side just because it's been a long day and I'm so tired at the moment. But then my phone starts blowing up with texts, and then a call again. So the second call I flip my phone over with a blurry view I read Shawn's name under incoming call. I start to get excited but anxious at the same time so I hop up off of my bed and rub my eyes while clearing my sleepy sounding throat.

"Hey Shawn!" I pick up and answer my phone on the last buzz.

"Hey Lorde! I wasn't really expecting you to pick up! I'm happy you did, well I mean I kind of did-" he starts to ramble.

"Call twice and spam my messages." I finished his sentence before he rambled too long with a tired hint to my voice, making him catch on.

"Sorry for waking you I just- I don't know I think you're just really great to talk to... It's kind of stupid.." Shawn tries to explain once he realized I was tired.

"It's fine Shawn." I kind of giggled but then continued on with my sentence, "Thanks, ha you're great too..."

"Uhm well can I ask you something, kind of one of the main things I called you for I'm just kind of scared I guess..." He asked with a drifting voice as I mumbled sure into the phone he continued his question. "Well are you uhm maybe doing anything tomorrow..?" I could hear the nervousness and tension in his voice.

"Hmmm tomorrow? As long as Carter isn't bothering me no..." I answered with a slight attitude when I remembered the asshole, Carter.

"Oh yeah, uh sorry about him babe" I was shocked he just called me babe, he must be tired, or I could be hearing things because I'm tired.? He didn't actually call me babe with meaning it. He couldn't of meant it. "Oh sorry, I uh mean Lorde..." he kind of seemed shocked and disappointed through his own voice, I began to get scared because I know I love Shawn. I mean I always have, but what if he's just trying to play with my emotions while my guard is down?

"It's fine. And yeah, ha that's fine too..." I could tell all my nervous energy leaked out into my voice, and that made me feel so embarrassed.

"Don't be nervous or awkward about that, ha. Anyways, as long as you're free, you think I could come down to the mall down by you and we could hang out or something.?" He questioned and I agreed. "Okay! Great, I'm so excited to actually meet you."

"Yeah, well I mean we could just meet at magcon..." I began to get annoyed because I could tell he was dragging the conversation so we could talk but I was really tired. And I love sleep.

"Yeah, but I have a few days off and I can't really seem to get you off my mind.." He confessed to me.

"Aw puppy love" I goofed with him but then finally admitted to being excited for tomorrow "Okay, okay. I'm excited to meet you tomorrow too. And not like excited I'm going to meet someone really well known, I mean excited that I might be meeting that one guy..." My words drifted into awkward seconds of silence and then I picked up the silence and told him that I was too tired at the moment and we could talk tomorrow.

But when we finally hung up I couldn't sleep for my life, anxious for tomorrow. All the great thoughts were passing through my mind such as; what will I wear, how will I do my hair and makeup, what're we going to do, what do I have to say to him, should I tell someone about tomorrow, etc.

I was scared to wear a dress and be too dressy, but then scared to wear jeans and be a slob, scared to put too much makeup and overdo it but at the same time if I don't put enough I'll look homeless, and same with my hair.

When I finally fell asleep, the thoughts were still running through my mind at 5am when I had originally wanted to wake up at 7. Change of plans to 8 now though...

And when I'd woken up all my worries had been among Shawn and none of Carter so far, and hopefully for the rest of the day because today is Shawn's day.
