Never Be Alone

Tori's p.o.v
Shawn comes back today.
He'll be here in about two hours.
Aaliyah has offered me to go with them to pick Shawn up from the airport, but I declined. I just don't want to see him, even though I know for a fact we'll be invited over their house.
•••••
Shawn just got here about an hour ago.
My family and I have been invited to their house for a gathering.
And of course I have to go.
So I decided to get their early, the first one out of my parents and brother to arrive.
Yay.
•••
I got to Shawn's house. As I was walking the steps to his door, I see both Alison and Shawn sitting on the bench...
Kissing.
I just stand there shocked.
Letting it all hit me, slowly.
Shawn realized and they stopped having there "fun" session.
"So... it's true".
"Tori listen, I-"
"No Shawn. I've listened and then this. I can't believe that this is actually true."
"Wait. What is she talking about Shawn?"
"Alison-"
"Guys is everything alright? Come on in guys".
We all got inside and just sat down the couch. Silent.
An uncomfortable silence to be exact.
I wanted to leave but I couldn't. It wouldn't be right at all to just walk out.
••••••
Dinner was very... awkward.
My parents and Shawn's parents we're prarically the only ones talking. Everything just felt so weird, and I feel like I caused it.
When we were all done eating we excused ourselves upstairs to Shawn's room to "talk".
How fun.
"Listen Shawn. This seems like a situation between you and Tori. I shouldn't get involved, I'll talk to you tomorrow."
And she left.
"Tori let me explain."
"Shawn there's nothing to explain. You like Alison. She likes you. And you want to be with her and not me. Our promise was to much I get it. And it's fine that you broke it... I guess."
"Wait. I only broke it because you broke it first."
"Me? What did I do?"
"Don't act all innocent. You know you and Cameron were a thing at some point during my tour."
"No!! Where are you hearing this?"
"Rumors. Pictures, videos. They all look true."
"Shawn. RUMORS. They are only rumors. I will never break a promise. Especially like that one".
"Umm.."
"Shawn wait a second. Is that why you've been avoiding me? Because "Cameron and I were a thing".
He stayed silent.
"It is. Wow. Shawn... you know what. Have you ever heard of talking things out? Shawn for weeks I've been constantly trying to figure out why youve been avoiding me, and to know that's it because of this is just... messed up".
"I'm sorry. I messed up. Big time. I especially messed up to have a chance with you".
"You have Alison though."
Yeah I guess your right".
"I'm always right."
"Are we still friends?"
"No Shawn. We're best friends"
"Forever and always?"
"Yup. But you know I still like you right?"
"I sure hope so...maybe some other time we can try and make that promise happen."
"Nice try Mendes. I'm not gonna forgive that easily."
"Worth a shot."
"Hmmmm. You should you know.. call your girlfriend. Explain things to her."
"Yea I should".

I made this sound like it was the ending Idk why. But we're far from the end don't worry.
Hope you liked %>_<%
