A Promise

Chapter 6 Confessions

Things were really getting difficult without Shawn. Whenever gran used to get tried walking Shawn would usually bring something for her to sit in it become a chair himself. I smiled to myself thinking of the time when once Shawn bent down like a dog and told gran to sit on him. Gran instantly refused since she believed in her yoga workouts to help her. I took the chance and sat on him. He did winced with pain at first but then held on and let me sit. It was so comforting, God I miss him already and it's only been once day......

I was cut off my thoughts by gran, 'Isle, let's get going, I can't sit here all day now can I?'

No gran. First of all you shouldn't have come to this theme park. You know you can't ride any of these rides except for the toddlers trains and stuff, and I'm not risking your life anymore. Shawn's not here to help too. All I could do to make you sit was get in this fancy restaurant and buy some godforsaken expensive food when I'm not even hungry'.

'Isle, I know you miss him, but let it go for some time, maybe it's the last time you're spending with me afterall....'

'No, gran, don't you dare say that', I tried to sound serious but my voice broke and tears trickled down my cheek.

'Oh, come here Isle. Now don't you start crying your not a wimp are you? Otherwise Shawn won't even look at you anymore', as soon as she said the last part my eyes shot up to meet the gleaming sparkling eyes of gran and I gave her the biggest and the most lovable smile I could ever give.

Gran was a badass oldie, she couldn't go on a rollercoaster so she readily jumped into the toddlers rides and enjoyed to the fullest. At times like this we often think of how beautiful life is and how we waste it thinking of how others will comment on us. But the truth is that people will talk no matter if you're right or wrong. So when everybody has to have an opinion on you, it's better to do what you think is right rather than looking at the world around you.

We returned back home and I went to my room to change, I took my phone out of my pocket and threw it on the bed like not threw, but the way tired teenagers place their things!

I changed to my comfy PJs and T-shirt and threw myself on the bad the same why as my phone. My phone buzzed immediately.

I opened the phone to find 3 missed calls form Shawn. I'd totally forgotten that he would've wanted to talk to me too. After all he missed me too I guess?

However the phone had buzzed for a message.

It was from Lola: hey what's up?

I couldn't care less to message her back, so I just typed: nothing much. How bout u?

Then I messaged Shawn: sorry couldn't pick up your phone, was busy with gran. Was so difficult without u :-(

He almost instantly replied: I am shit bored here too n I guess I'm missing u ;-)

I replied too: and I don't have to guess at all to miss you, coz I'm really missing u :-)

He replied: than I have something to say to u too....

Okay, okay. Okay. Cool down dude, it's not like he's gonna tell you he likes you in the nest message, he's probably gonna send some funny thing happening around him, don't jump to conclusions. My heart was thumping like crazy, I could hear it so loud and clear. If he can't affect me from so far I wonder if he flirts the same way with me in real! No no don't be stupid, he's hot and there are probably dozens of hot girls for him in Hawaii. I don't stand a chance...

My phone buzzed.. And my heart beat stopped. I unlocked my phone and closed my eyes before opening the message, and opened my eyes to see: I'm just watching the notebook with Luke William. Can you bloody imagine, he's sitting right next to me his arms draped around me, I think I gotta go, were gonna make out today. Defiantly! ;-) :-*

What? Shawn is gay? And why would he be interest in Luke, who's from our school. Couldn't he tell me sooner? But I was just overreacting. Because it's been 10 minutes now and he didn't messages so instead I happened to read Lola's message as Shawn's.

But after 15 minutes the phone beeped again:
I'm sorry I screwed up the message moment.

I'm sure you did boy.

Then he messaged again: okay. So here's what I wanted to tell you....

He messaged again: I think I like u ;-)

And there after so much of struggle and shit, I heard what I wanted to hear.

I messaged back again: I "guess" I like u too ;-)

Then he messaged: night. Meet you on Monday.

I messaged: meet you in Monday. Night

And there, I was done with it. We both confessed our love for each other.
