What Would Have Been (Shawn Mendes Fanfiction) *SLOW UPDATES*

Chapter 3

Bethany

After Shawn posted a few vines of him and me messing around, he finally cracked down and got to shooting the real thing. We may have at some point gone down to his kitchen, and we may have had a little bit of a flour fight. We're gonna have to clean that up before his mom comes home.

    I picked up Shawn's phone and pointed the camera at him, ready to start the vine, but Shawn covered the camera.

    "I kind of don't want to have people see me covered in flour..." He let his voice trail off and let out a soft chuckle. I puffed my cheeks and proceeded to face the camera down and hide it in the pillow, leaving the screen black. I gave Shawn a thumbs up and pressed down on the screen, signaling him to go ahead.

    "And I think of all the things, what you're doing

     And in my head I paint a picture."

    The camera quickly ended the video and so I proceeded to upload his vine for him, simply adding "#valarie" for the description and posting the vine.

    "I'm glad you finally decided to listen to me and do this. You have an amazing voice, and it deserves to be shared with the world."  I said to Shawn as we made our way back downstairs to  clean up the kitchen. There was flower everywhere, from the top part of the fridge, to the back of the open cupboard. I grabbed some rags and sponges from underneath the sink and tossed a few to Shawn. "Well, time to get to work."

    After a few minutes of cleaning in silence, I heard Shawn humming by the table. I instantly recognized the song, it being one of our favorites, so I started to sing a long while looking through my phone to find the song. Shawn lifts his head and looks to me, smiling and slightly shaking his head before singing.

    Shawn: Every time I think I'm closer to the heart

    What it means to know just who I am

    I think I finally found a better place to start

    No one ever seems to understand

    I need to try to get to where you are

    Could it be you're not that far?

    Both: You're the voice I hear inside my head

    The reason that I'm singing

    I need to find you

    Gotta find you

    You're the missing piece I need

    The song inside of me

    I need to find you

    I gotta find you

    Oh yeah

    Yeah

    Bethany: You're the remedy I'm searching hard to find

    To fix the puzzle that I see inside

    Painting all my dreams the color of your smile

    When I find you it will be alright

    I need to try to get to where you are

    Could it be you're not that far?

    Bethany: You're the voice I hear inside my head

    The reason that im singing
