Call my name

The concert

CAMPOV

Theplace is huge and the crowd is screaming "Shawn", "Shawn"...

I'mso enthusiastic for this event, it's going to be super cool and it'sa nice beginning for his musical career. The only probllem is hisshyness: I hope he is going to pass over it. I wonder where he isright now; I think I've just saw Taylor with him, maybe trying toconfort our scary musician.

SHAWNPOV

Ican't fucking do this. I'm not the type of boy who curse but FUCK !!

Thisisn't how I imagined it would have been.. there are too many peoplewho are shouting that I can't even think straight, lights all aroundthe stage, a chair and a microphone just for me... I'm not going todo this.

Ileave my guitar on a random chair in the backstage and I lay down.

Iclose my eyes trying to focus on my breath, cutting off all theunbearable tension... I just need one person, I need him.

Afterwhat it feels like an eternity I feel someone laying down beside mebut I have no strenght to open my eyes and turn around, so I staysilent, enjoying his company.

Taylor:"What'swrong shawnie ??"

Ishot my eyes open and I gasp as I recognize him.

Shawn:"Ehi.. I-I d-didn't expect t-to see you h-here.."

Taylor:"How could I leave you alone in this situation ?! You can't even walkout of here.. Now tell me what's wrong"

Iroll on my side so I can face him and he does the same.

Shawn:"Idon't even know, it's just that.. I've never been on a stage before,in front of lots of people.. It's something new that stress me. I'mnot ready.. What if I forget the lyrics ?? What if I mess up ?! WHATIF I FALL OFF THE STAGE WHILE I'M WALKING ?! "

Hestarts giggling with no control and actually this bothers me 'causeI'm freaking out and he just laughs at me.

Shawn:"Oh,you think it's funny ?!?" I say with pure sarcasm

Taylor:"It'shilarious Shawnie" He keeps smiling.

OkI'm done, I didn't come here to be laughed at so I'll leave.

Iget up from the floor and I head to the door of the backstage butsuddenly Taylor grabs my arm and turns me back so I can face his nowserious face.

Hethen takes my guitar and gives it to me.

We'reso close that I can hear his heartbeats from where I stand and it'skind of scary 'cause I don't understand why he's so impatient..

Hetakes my hands in his and starts leaning in and at this point I canfeel my legs becoming heavy.

Taylor:"Iknow you can do it. You worked hard, you're smart and caring and alsothe only one who deserves this chance so please Shawn take your assout there and show to everyone who is the boy I'm falling for, ok??"

I'mspeechless. I am the boy he's falling for ?! Seriously ?! If this isa dream don't fucking try to wake me up.

Shawn:"D-Doyou l-like me-e ?!" I don't know why I'm worried about this whilean entire crowd is shouting my name.

Taylor:"Ofcourse I do Shawnie, how could I not ?! Now, focus on your concert..we're gonna talk about this later. I'll give you an incentive.."

Hesmiles and cuts the distance between us.

Hislips melted in mine, our breaths become one while he grabs my sidesand I tangle my fingers with his hair. This HAS to be a freakingdream.

Taylor:"C'monShawnie, you can do this.. we all believe in you" He whispersagainst my lips.
