Expecting the Unexpected - Hayes Grier and Shawn Mendes Fanfiction

Physical Fate - Chapter 7

Livy's POV

Today was our last day in Miami, and we're making it good while it lasts with a late night bonfire.

In the morning of that exact day, I wake up to the time of 7 AM. Ashley's still asleep, and probably the rest of the crew too. Why not spend this spare time in the gym?

I threw on a pink sports bra and stretchy shorts to match. I then put on unflattering grey sneakers, but they get the job done. After that I put my hair into a bun, put on waterproof makeup, and I was ready to go.

Before I left I looked back at Ashley and saw she was on FaceTime with someone else while the person on the other side was sleeping too. I couldn't see who it was, though. Their face was stuffed into a pillow. I took a risk and tapped on the screen to see the contact name of...

Shawn

Mendes!

I'm so asking about this later. But for right now, down to the gym.

Hayes' POV

I randomly woke up at 7 AM. Damn, that's different. Tez treated us to breakfast yesterday, now it's my turn. I might as well go down right now.

As I begin to walk out, I already hear the elevator open.

"Wait for me!" I chanted while running at full speed. I got there and saw the one person I wasn't trying to see.

Livy.

But not only that, she was in a sports bra and short shorts. My life is complete.

"Oh, hey." I awkwardly smiled while walking in the elevator.

"Hi!" She cheeked. Damn she was adorable.

"Thanks for uh- holding the elevator."

"No problem. Where are you going?"

"Oh, uh, breakfast. But the real question is," I said while looking at her up and down, "where are you going?"

Did I seriously just do that. What.

She giggled and responded with the obvious answer, "gym."

"That's cool." Get ready to ruin my dignity.

In 3...

2...

"Do you think I could join you?" I blurted.

She looked at me confused, but still smiling. "I thought you just said you wer-"

"I wasn't hungry anyway."

"Oh, okay!" The elevator opened to the empty gym room. Of course it would be empty, just to make things more awkward.

"So um, do what you got to do!" She advised as walking to the treadmill.

Oh, I knew what I was going to do.

Shirt off, 100 push ups to go.

Livy's POV

This is real life. I'm actually at the gym with Hayes Grier. And he WANTED to come with me! What is life?!

I'm so tempted to look at him just to see what he's doing, but I don't want him to get the wrong idea.

What am I talking about? It's the right idea. I like him.

Not just that,

I'm in love with him.

I couldn't help myself. I turned around for a sneak peek, and he was DOING PUSH UPS SHIRTLESS.

And at that moment, I fell off the treadmill.

Hayes' POV

"Shit, Livy!" I ran over to her and rested her head on my knees.

And to my surprise, she was laughing. "Oh my god!" She bursted out.

It was so cute, I started to laugh with her. "You're crazy." I looked down and saw she had a few cuts on her elbows and legs. "Let's bring you back to your room and get you fixed up." I picked her up bridal style while she was resting her head on my shoulder.

"Thank you, Hayes."

"Anything for you." I can't believe I just said that. What is going on with me?

She looked up into my eyes and and back down smiling.

The elevator shut and we started to move up. We both didn't look at each other to make it awkward, but we could both sense that we wanted to though.

3rd floor... 4th floor... 5 flo...

All of a sudden the elevator stopped moving and all of the lights went out.

"Fuck!" I screamed.
