Chapter 11 Ainsley's POV:
I walked straight into my room and immediately opened up my lap top. I knew who Shawn Mendes was, but I don't think I knew him well enough as the famous singer all the girls fell in love with. I typed in his name, and many things came up. I clicked on videos, interviews, and covers he did. I took a deep breathe.
"How is this guy falling for me!"
"My doll." I jumped and quickly closed my computer.
"Yes." I quickly turned around and gave him a cheesy smile.
"I uh, I want to show you something." He turned around and walked out of the room and I followed. He walked in his room and he sat on his bed as I did as well.
"This was your fathers." He handed me a dog tag with a chain on it. I slowly looked at it and grabbed it from his hand glancing at it.
"You're father never really died in a car accident my dear." I was trying to control my breathing as pain filtered within my body.
"You're dad, was in the marines he was on coast guard duty and was requested to go out on a rescue mission to save 12. He came back which was a miracle. Nobody thought he could do it especially the weather condition that was out at sea. When he uh came back he, he died of hypothermia. Him and the other three that went out for the survivors. When he was in the hospital on his final hours I went to visit him, and he handed me this. And the last thing he told me was, tell her I'm sorry." I slowly lifted my head up with tears in my eyes. I looked directly at his.
"At first I didn't know what he met. I spent months leading on to years finding out. Until, until I finally did. He's sorry that he didn't once think about you, but about others. My doll you have every right to be mad." He put his hand on my shoulder.
"Why couldn't you just have told me the truth?" I asked gently.
"I thought that would be the hardest way for your granddaughter to know how there father passed away. He loved you. I don't know if your mother ever did, but he did." He responded.
"I don't blame him." I took a deep breathe and watched my grandfather look at me.
"He had to do what he had to do. He did it trying." I got up from the bed quickly and walked extremely fast out of his room trying to avoid the pain as quick as I could.

  I woke up for school the next day not feeling to great. I basically cried myself to sleep. I put my dads dog tag around my next to complete my outfit. I walked out and saw my pa making breakfast for me. I'm not mad at him I understand everything he was trying to do. That's his role as a grandparent.
"I made you some raspberry tea my doll." He smiled.
"Thank you. Uh pa, may you make my breakfast to go. I have to stop by the library to do something." I asked.  He nodded. I jumped into my car and drove my way to school. I got out of the car and began my way to the library. As so, I managed to come across ROTC hanging up the flag. I looked at the main leader who was filled geared up. I stopped and we made eye contact.
"I uh, I think that's a great thing you're doing." He just looked at me and I continued walking. Just thinking about my dad. Until I ran into a guy who had two drinks in his hands which I managed to spill all over him.
"I'm so sorry!" I looked up and noticed it was Shawn.
"Oh my gosh! Shawn I'm terrible sorry." I just looked at him as he had coffee all over his shirt. He looked around and then smiled and broke out in a laugh.
"I was going to your car, and got you coffee." He responded.
"Are you okay?" He noticed that I was off.
"Shawn, I'm a girl with a lot of hurt inside, and I don't think I should hold you back." I quickly turned and began to walk away from him until I felt him grab my arm and turn me around.
"You don't have a say in who I have feelings for." I just looked at him.
"May you please come with me to get a new shirt please?" He gave me a cheesy smile and I couldn't help, but to give a little giggle. But I followed him out of the school.
