Shawn woke up. Why am I? He thought. He lift up his upper body feeling a huge headache as tried to get up. He suddenly seen Taylor was sleeping on the bed. He jumped a little, not knowing how Taylor got here. What is he doing here? Why is he in my room?. Shawn glanced around the room lazily seeing he was at Taylor's room. The younger boy panicked thinking they might of had a one night stand, he looked down at himself relief filled him seeing he had his clothes on. He tried to shake The older boy awake but he wasn't responding. Shawn wanted to get out the house not wanting to wake up Taylor anyways since he didn't want to know what happened last night.

Since the 16 year old had a hangover, it was hard for him to stand up. A couples of minutes of trying, he stood up but holding on to the dresser for support. He slid on his sandals carefully not trying to make any sudden noises. His legs were wobbly when he was walking out the room, he was surprised that Taylor didn't wake up. Sleeping bodies were on the floor so he step over them accidentally stepping on someone's face. He whispered a quick sorry not meaning it but the person was mumbled something and went back to sleep. He walked downstairs, seeing empty bottles, ships scattered everywhere, The couches were flip upside down, and more people sleeping.

Shawn felt bad for Taylor and his sister because they had to clean it up, but they should've know not to throw a party unless you know what you're doing.

The younger boy took out his phone and dialed Matt's number. After a few rings, Matt didn't answer his phone and Shawn left a voicemail. "Howdy friend I probably won't answer your calls cause you're irrelevant, leave a message at the tone", "Ummm Hi Matt it's Shawn calling where are you? I feel awful so call me back when you see this". 15 minutes later, Shawn was on his 9th voicemail, "Sorry Matt that I'm calling you again call me back I really need to go please you're freaking me out you usually answer your phone, I'm going to find another way to get home, call me to let me know your safe" Shawn sent a voicemail and put his phone back his pocket. "Looking for a ride home freak" He turned around seeing it was Connor walking down the steps.

"Y-Yeah" Shawn got scared. "On one condition though" Connor wouldn't let him ride without a price. "What is it?" He asked him. "I'm staying at your house" He had an evil smirked. What? NOO. "Why can't you stay at your house?" Shawn didn't want him to enter his home. "Don't question my motivates, Now lets go before I change my mind cunt" He said opening the front door as Shawn sighed and followed sighed his lead. They soon enter Connor's Car which was park right next to Taylor's house. The drive to his house was awkward since people really don't ride in the same car with their bully. The song; Teenage dream by Katy Perry came on the radio and suddenly Shawn started singing along the lyrics.

"You are me feel like I'm living a teenage dream The way your turn me on.
, I can't sleep " Shawn couldn't help but hit that high note. Connor lowered the radio, "Wow.... You having an amazing voice Shawn it's like heaven on earth". The younger boy thought he was serious, "T-Thank y-" Connor cut him off. "You thought I was being for real? Your voice is terrible loser you should quit singing completely it's not like your ever going to get famous one day" He laughed as Shawn pouted and considering quitting singing after that comment. Minutes after Connor made fun of Shawn, he parked in the driveway. Shawn sighed softly since his aunt wasn't home to safe him from the devil.

They both got out of the car and He unlocked his front door as His bully followed in. "So this were the rat lives, I have better furniture than you" Connor said looking around his house. "We'll that's because your Uncle is rich pretty boy" Shawn mumbled beneath his breath. "Oh this is the first time that the rat talked, say that again? You need to speak loud " Connor replied sarcastically. Shawn was stayed quiet as he took his sandals off and Sweater. "Thought so" Connor took off his jacket and boots.

Connor glimpsed at the pictures on the wall.  His eyes were scolling through photo until he saw The mendes family photo. "Is that your family" He questioned Shawn. He nodded, his family was a sensitive topic. "They probarly glad their dead so they don't have to look at your ugly face no more" he laughed at him thinking the joke was funny then it really wasn't. "How is my little sistsr dying at age 8 funny to you? Shawn was emotinless and Connor grew quiet. "My parents and my sister are dead now because somebody killed them and i got shot that same night, How is that a Joke?" Connor was going to speak but kept quiet.

"I lost everthing i had that night, i lost my family, my childhood, my dignity, and i lost the most important thing; myself" Shawn toned of voice gave him chills."What did you lose?huh? You lost nothing, you have perfect life, a perfect house, a perfect family and plus you are rich" Shawn was right. "I wish i could have your life, You know how many nights i laid in my bed crying myself to sleep everynight because i miss my mom? You don't because you never lost anything" A tear fell from both of their eyes. "I tried to kill myself so many times; That's how much i missed them; I sallowed Pills mutiple times, Cut myself deep, anything that would kill me, i would do it because I wanted to with them".

"There some nights i stay awake, my mind always keeps telling you could've saved her, you let her died; and i believe those thoughts are true because i could've saved her. My sister is the one who should've be alive not me. She was just was a little girl who liked ponies and wanted to be a princess one day, she didn't deserve to die. You know what they did to her? They stabbed her and her screams will haunt me everyday of my life because i laid there in that closet;not saving her and letting her die" Connor stared at him carefully as Shawn told his story.

"Before their death, my father was teaching me how to play hockey and i remember him saying; "Your going to get better at hockey, you just gotta keep on trying even though you want to quit". I always keep that in mind when i wanna replase. My mom was kind and loving, i wish i could've say goodbye to her and hug one last time but i can't and she gone now and i miss her everyday and my dad and my sister" Shawn was verage of tears. "So please don't ever  joke about their deaths". "My life isn't perfect, my dad had ALS and everyday I watched him suffered until he was pronounced dead. My mom became an alcoholic and vanished one night, my uncle had to take me in because no one else wouldn't, I use to drink and have sex so I wouldn't feel anything, I used to ditch school and get high, how's is that a perfect life?" Connor told his story.

"Yes I may be rich but money doesn't buy me happiness and I'm sorry that I joke about your family, if you ever need me or anything I'm here for you" Shawn gave him a small smile. "We may be different people with different backgrounds doesn't mean we can't support each other" Connor was making an offer. "We can be friends? I mean that's only if you want to" He put his hand out. "Friends" Shawn shakes his hand and that was the start of their friendship.

It was late at night and Shawn was already to go to sleep. It was strange because Matt never called him back. Then a unknown number called him and he got a bit panicked but answered. "Hello" He said on the line. No one said anything on the other line, all Shawn could hear was heavy breathing. "Hello who is this?" The younger boy gotten worried. "It's Matt I need you to call the police right now, they're coming for me" Matt whispered like he was going to die any second now. "I will; Matt what's happening who's coming for you and please be okay" Shawn tried to calm his best friend down. "Shawn I'm going to die I need you to call THE POLICE THEYRE-" Then He suddenly heard Matt violently screaming which made him jump out of his bed.

"MATT!" He shouted and then the phone went dead. He turned off his phone not knowing what was going on, all he knew he needed to get the house and go find Matt before it's too late.
