Better Then He Can - s.m.

"You okay?" Dad asked as I crutched my way into the living room

"Yes dad I'm fine. Can you hand me my phone, I need to text Shawn." I asked reaching for my phone.

"Here sweetie, how's he doing anyway?" Dad asked

"Okay I guess, he went back to school yesterday. When am I able to go back?" I asked looking up from my phone

"I'm not sure Chars. You still have to let your ribs heal along with your leg, you still have your concussion as well. He said looking at me

"Dad I want I really want to go back to school." I said returning to my text

C: Hey wanna come over? How you feeling? How is school?

S: Yeah Sure i'll be there in 10. Feeling okay in pain but okay. Schools going okay.

C: When did Nash and Cam go back?

S: Nash went back last week and Cam went back yesterday. We're just waiting on you! 😆

C: Just help me convince my dad of letting me go back! please Shawn

S: I'll try Char. I don't think it's a good idea.

C: Why not Shawn!! COME ON! 😒😒😒

S: I gotta go Char. I'll see you when I get over to your house.

I huffed "Fine be like that."I said throwing my phone to the other end of the couch

About 5 minutes later the door bell rung. "Dad can you get that?" I yelled

"It's only me." I heard Shawn from the other side of the door.

"Oh okay, you can just come in. You don't have to knock or ring the doorbell you know that right?" I said as he walked into the room.

"Oh really?" He said nervously scratching the back of his neck

"Shawn we've been best friends for years of course you doofus! Oh and can you hand me my phone?" I asked looking at the end of the couch

"Why is it down here exactly? He asked picking up my phone

"I um kinda threw it after we stopped texting." I smiled

"Wow Charlotte really?" He asked

I laughed  "Well you saw it down there didn't you!So how are Nash and Cameron?"

"The are good I guess. Cameron's leg is still bugging him but it's getting better and Nash's arm is doing okay. He hates his cast a lot. Shawn explained laughing

"Do you want to go for a walk maybe? I asked Shawn

"Yeah sure I guess" He said helping me up

"Shawn?" I said looking down at our hands

"Yeah?" He said looking at me

"Y.. you can let go now." I said

"Do you want me to let go?" He asked

"N..No not really." I said

"Okay then I won't!" He smiled grabbing my crutches

"Shawn?" I asked looking at him

"Yeah? What's up? asked looking up from my crutches

"I love you." I said staring down at my shoes
