In The Middle

Chapter 6 : Lipgloss Stains

J A C O B

"Thanks Shawny boy." she said to him, getting down from his arms.

She kissed both of his cheeks, which left a glossy lip mark stain on his face.

Shawn greeted me and I just said hi back.

Did I miss something? Are they dating?'

"Hi Camila!" I greeted her cheerfully.

"Hi Jacob!" she gave me a hug, and patted my back.

I kissed her nose, leaning my forehead on hers.

Jacob kissed my nose...

Ohmygod...Jacob kissed my nose!

Wait, oh crap... Jacob kissed my nose.

I felt like it was wrong. Even though I'm not with anyone.

I looked back at Shawn, awkwardly. 

"Camila I gotta tell you something." said Jacob, gripping onto my hand.

What was he gonna say...?

"Wait, one second." Camila told him.

She ran over to me, and gave me a hug.

"I know, you like Jacob. Go spend the day with him." I smiled.

A fake smile.

"Go get him." I told her.

Camila smiled. 

She stood up on her toes, hugged me, and kissed the left side of my neck.

"As a friend Shawny.." she whispered, still hugging me,"I love you."

"I love you too." I told her.

Our hands were held together, and as she left to go to Jacob, our arms stretched out until she walked away.

I don't want her hanging with that boy.

But I want her to be happy.

"Yo Mendes!" I heard Austin yell.

I turned around, to see a shocked Austin.

"Is that... her lipgloss?" he asked me.

"Wh-" I took out my phone and checked myself...

Camila left friggin' lipgloss stains all over my face!

They are kinda cute though.

I tried wiping some off with the pad of my thumb.

"Oh, yeah I-" 

"You've been smooching with my crush?" he cut me off,"Oh, Mendes. Get out!"

"Look, I-"

"I don't wanna hear it" Austin cut me off again,"You better not do this again."

"Will you just..!-" I held my fist an inch from his face.

I sighed, lowering it.

I left.

We were in my dressing room.

"I gotta confess something." Jacob said.

"Yeah, anything." I replied.

I was scared. 

"Babe" he said.

It sent chills down my spine.

"Camila, I'm in love with you." he confessed.

I stared at him. Was I supposed to say something?

"I love every single part of you." he continued,"Your personality, your body, your laugh."

He went on and on until he leaned in.

I didn't know what to do.

He pressed his lips to mine.

Oh gosh.

He pushed me against the wall.

I couldn't do anything.

Man, why am I so small and weak?!

His hands trailed over to my shirt, nearly taking it off.

"I'll be needing stitches, tripping over myself aching, begging" my phone rang.

Yes, Shawn is my ringtone. I have all my favorite songs as my ringtone.

"Oh, look at that! I'm getting a call!" I said awkwardly, fixing my shirt.

"Mila?" he asked.

By his voice I knew it was Shawn.

"I need a hug." he  said.

"When I get there, I am gonna hug you and pinch your cheeks, muffin man." I told him.

"I'm at Menchies." he told me.

"Okay, I will be right there." I said to him.

"Who was it?" Jacob asked.

"Shawn." I replied simply,"I gotta go meet up with him again."

"Just don't do anything crazy with him." Jacob said.

I sighed,"Jacob, you really think we're a couple?"
