My heart was broken after he left me behind, under the stars of the calm night. I still like to think that we were in love. Yes, my heart is broken but I have my best friend Shawn to help me. He is the kind of friend that will stay up all night to comfort you when you are crying and think you cannot go on.

The night that me and Tristan broke up, he was there to help me through it all. Help me back up from the worst fall that I have ever taken. Sadly, this was the night that I realized that I might have feelings for my best friend. I say sadly, because I don't want my feelings for him to get in the way of our friendship. I would never want that to happen. It was midnight and I was standing at his front door, knocking, and crying. Shawn opened the door to see me, an emotional mess standing there. I expected him to say, "Why do you like such a mess?," but instead, he pulled me into his chest and hugged me as I looked up into his dark brown eyes. He said to me, "What's wrong baby girl? Who the hell hurt you?," he asked.

"Tristan hurt me, he found a prettier and better girl. He left me under the stars." Shawn pulled me in again.
"God damn it... Why did he have to make a break-up so romantic?," Shawn asked.

He invited me into his cozy home and told me that his parents were gone so I could stay the night. He then went to the freezer and took a whole tub of chocolate ice cream out. My favourite. We stayed up all night cuddling, eating ice cream and watching movies. After that night, it felt like Shawn and I were closer but also farther apart because his music career was taking off.  I miss him so much. He's not around much anymore because he is travelling, performing and living his dream. I'm stuck here watching him on a television screen. I love watching him on awards shows because I am so proud of him. When I watch him on television, it's not the same as when he's here with me though. Right now, Shawn is in California recording new music. He seems so close, yet he is so far away.

This is all about to change though. I got just got a call from him saying that he is flying me out to California.... He misses me and wants to give me a sneak peek of his new music.

I'm on my way to the airport and I called my best friend to come pick me up because I'm way to excited to drive. This is the first time in my life that I will be flying alone and I'm a little nervous but it's okay because I'm going to see the one person who makes truly happy. I get to see his perfect white smile, hear his cute laugh, and get to physically feel his muscular arms wrap around my small body. I get to see my best friend again, for the first time in months.

It's been an hour but now we are finally at the airport. I got through security, it took forever and now I'm walking to the terminal to board the plane. My face hurts from smiling so and my mind won't stop thinking about Shawn. "Group B may now line up," a woman says. I'm one step closer to seeing him...
