It All Started With A Simple Text (Shawn Mendes Fanfiction)

Chapter 1

A/N: Hey so this is my second book! Hopefully, you guys will enjoy this one. Anyway, carry on reading and don't let me bore you lol.

Chapter One

I got up in the morning to my alarm ringing. Of course, I had to get ready for work on a Saturday morning. It was 9 something am. I wouldn't know yet as my eyes were reaaaaally blurry.

Sighing, I pulled my covers off and walked to the bathroom like a slug. After doing my business, I went back to my room and took out a top and ripped jeans. I paired it with converse and a leather jacket. Not too much effort as I'm only going to work.

I walk downstairs stumbling across my mother passed out on the couch. 

Yup she came back late last night again. I looked around her surroundings and saw a broken vodka bottle. 

Everything changed since my father left us a few years back.

I sat on the step as my parents yelled over each other. 

'I don't even know the girl!' my Dad yelled.

I heard a sigh, guessing it was my Mum's.

'I saw the both of you,' she paused for a second then continued,'It didn't look like 'just friends' to me'

There was another pause for nearly a minute. I sat there waiting for an answer then heard a bang.

I jumped in shock and ran downstairs to the living room. 

The cups were shattered, the newspapers and magazines that were on the table was all over the floor and my father was no where to be seen.

I saw my Mum break down in front of me. I didn't know what to do. I ran to her and hugged her as we both cried.

I walked to the kitchen putting a bread in the toaster then to the cupboard to find the brush. As soon as I got the brush, I ran back to the living room and cleaned up the glass. I put it in the bin and buttered my bread walking out the door as I kissed my mother's forehead.

I started walking to work which was only like 5 minutes away. I worked in a coffee shop (not Starbucks although I wish!) for a few months and already I love it. I don't really like coffee but I've made so many friends since working there and it had a good vibe to it.

I walked in as the door bell rung. My boss, Natalie, smiled at me. 

'Good morning, sweetie, ready to work?' she said.

I smiled back, 'Yep!'

Natalie was literally the best boss ever. She wasn't mean or nasty or horrible like most bosses are described. She's the nicest caring person you would have ever met, trust me. 

I put my apron on and stood behind the till. Natalie skipped to the door and turned the sign around to 'Open'. 

Not that many people came on a Saturday morning. Some would be sleeping in and I wish I was too. 

I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned around to see Lauren smiling.

'Laurennn!' I yelled and hugged her.

'Camilaaa!' she laughed and hugged me. 

I think you already guessed she's my best friend.

'What are you doing here?' I smiled at her.

Lauren shrugged, 'I didn't know what to blog about so I went out for inspiration and happen to be here.'

Lauren's job is like a dream job. She has a blog which she gets paid for especially if she's promoting or reviewing a make up or clothes product. I nearly felt jealous for her as she could do it when she wants to but then again blog isn't my thing.

I nodded, 'Do you want a coffee then?'

'Nah, I'll have a cupcake,' she said and I  nodded.

'On the house' I walked to my right where there were a lot of choices of cupcakes.

'Yay! Lauren ran over to the cupcakes and chose 2 cupcakes. 

I laughed 'Hope your blog goes well' 

Lauren smiled and waved me goodbye as she walked out of the shop.

*6 HOURS LATER*

It was now time to go home. I took my apron off and took my phone from my locker.

I turned my phone on as I walked home. I saw I had a text although it was from an unknown number. 

I opened the message.

Unknown: Hey

Camila: Who's this?

Soon after I sent the message, my phone lit up.

Unknown: You don't need to know, all you need to know is that I know you and you definitely know me.

I ignored the message. It's probably someone just trying to prank me.

I got home and I took my shoes off as I locked the door behind me.

I went to the living room.

'Mum?' I yelled. 

No sound. I was home alone. 

I went upstairs and put the shower on. I walked to my room and put my phone on my bed stand. I took out my onesie and laid it down on my bed then took my towel, walking back to my shower.

A/N: HOW WAS IT? Hope you enjoyed this chapter as much as I enjoyed writing this. 

Yes there's lots more coming up.  More texts will be coming, this is not the end of the texts she'll be receiving ooo creepy. Feel like this is Pretty Little Liars but whatever.
