"I had a great time tonight." I say looking into his ocean blue eyes that stare into me. A smile curves onto my lips.

"I did too," he says stepping a bit closer. "Maybe uh we could do this again?" He asks as his hand makes its way to the small of my back.

I chuckle a little.
"Yeah of course, I would like that." My smile fades away as I get lost in his gorgeous eyes. "A lot."

He leans in closer as I do the same my eyes slowly flutter closed and I'm just waiting for him to make contact with his soft lips-

The door swings open with a loud bang.

I jump ten feet in the air stepping away from Adrian, the guy I was about to kiss! I snap my head towards the insensitive person who would have no heart at all and ruin this for me.

"Whoops, did I interrupt something here." Shawn motions between me and Adrian. My glare hardens on Shawn as he pretends to be all innocent. He smiles.

Nick steps into view and plants himself next to Shawn. Nick lets out a low whistle.

"Well, this isn't going to end well." Nick states the obvious looking at all three of us.

"No," I start my glare still on Shawn "it's not." I hiss. Shawn offers me a smile and I mouth 'you're dead' which makes him shut up completely.

"I should uh go." Adrian says "I'll text you." He smiles which I return and he walks down the dormitory hall.

"Well, won't you look at the time!" Shawn pretends to check his watch, which he obviously doesn't have.

"Oh no you don't!" I whisper yell so I won't wake any other dorms up. "You two in the dorm!" I look at Shawn and Nick. "Now!"

They quickly obey and walk into the room with there heads hung low. I follow after them closing the door behind me. I kick off my converse and prepare myself for the hell that I'm about to let loose.

"Sit." I command

"I'm not a dog." Shawn chuckles "would you like me to roll over while I'm at it? Ooo maybe if I'm a good boy I'll get a belly rub!" He continues to joke.

"I said sit!" I say sterner

Nick and Shawn both take a seat on the couch.

I pace back and forth biting my nail.

I stop and stare straight at Shawn.

"You!" I point

"Me?" He questions

"Yes you! Don't play dumb. What the hell is wrong with you!" I yell

"Well, If you must know," he lets out a sigh, "I have a lazy eye, a scar on my left cheek, I have a caffeine addiction, my feet are abnormally big, I hate tomatoes," he counts off on his fingers.

"Shawn!" I yell

He looks up at me

"What?" He questions cluelessly.

I give him a stern look.

"Okay okay I'll shut up." He throws his hands up in surrender.

"Why do you have to ruin every date I go on!" I whine like a little child.

He scoffs
"I do not!"

"Oh really? Remember last week when I went on a movie date with that guy named Rickey-"

"Terrible name by the way." He butts in.

I continue.

"You just so happened to be in the same movie theater and the same movie just one row behind us!" I retort. "'Accidentally ' spilling your drink on his head, really Shawn?"

"I do not recall that." He shrugs it off

This time I'm the one scoffing.

"You and Nick-" I stop when I notice Nick is no longer next to Shawn. "Where did Nick go?" I ask confusingly looking around.

"Oh yeah he left like five minutes ago while you were going off on your rant."

"Great just great!" I throw my hands in the air dramatically.

"Em, just calm down-"

"No I will not 'calm down' when you ruined my date and your acting like such a jerk about it like you're doing nothing wrong-"

"I don't believe I'm doing anything wrong."

"You're ruining my dating life, Shawn! You manage to scare away any potential guy that's interested in me! Why? What happened to our promise we made!"

"Promise?" He questions.

"Yes promise! Promise to do what's best for each other!" I yell louder.

"And what about the promise I made." He whispers it's just then I notice how close he is to me.

"Promise?" I mock him "I didn't know you would remember promises because clearly you couldn't remember the promise about doing what's best for-"

He cuts me off by his lips smashing into mine. I'm surprised I didn't pull back. Why didn't I pull back? What's wrong with me I should pull back. Fuck it I don't want to pull back.

"This." He says in between kisses "is what's best for me."

His hands naturally makes its way to the hem of my shirt.

He looks into my eyes and waits.

The next thing I do shocks me because I never thought I would do it.

I nod.
