    (Y/N POV)

 
   "Come over to my house so we can get ready for the exam tomorrow!" Venus yells over the phone.

I pull the slim device away from my eyes, wincing at her loudness.

"Jesus Christ, calm down Ven. I'll be there in 10." I respond, ending the call to get my stuff for her house.

I gather my books and pencils, putting it in my backpack and heading out the door.

  My parents have been in the states for 2 weeks now, doing business down there. I miss them but I like the quiet house.

The walk to Venus's was short. She lives in the same neighborhood as me, which is convenient because her boyfriend's house is 2 hours down from hers.

I roll my eyes at the thought of them together.

  Yea, I maybe a little jealous that she's now dating the guy I've had a crush on since like the 7 grade.

  But she's my bestfriend so what am I suppose to do? Tell her not to date him? Venus is a wild card. That's probably why Shawn likes her anyway.

  Knocking on her door, no one answers which is odd.

Someone's always downstairs or in the living room considering it's like a theater in there.

  I heavily sigh, lifting her porch decoration up to find a key under there. I open the door, put the key back and walk upstairs.

  Getting to her room, I open the door.

  "Van, I'm here. Why didn't you-"

I halt my words and my movements, seeeing her straddling Shawn in a heated session.

  "Stop! What the hell is he doing here?" I scream, slamming her door shut.

  They break apart in a frenzy, with Shawn falling back on the bed and Venus falling in the floor.

  "Oh my god (Y/N) you scared the crap out of me! Why didn't you knock first?" Venus asks, running her hand through her hair.

I squint at her in disbelief. "I didn't think he would be here? If I had known, I wouldn't have come!" I seethe, crossing my arms.

  "I'm right here (Y/N). I'm not too happy seeing you either." He snorts sitting up.

  "You ended the call before I could tell you so it's kinda your fault too." She retorts back, going into her dressing room.

I roll my eyes, setting my things on her desk, sitting down on a chair.

  "Stay here, I'll be back in 20. Try not to kill each other." Venus announces, walking out of her room.

  Panic fills my brain as I stand up to catch her wrist.

  "You can't leave me in here with him!" I cry quietly.

  "Oh relax you big baby, I'm taking a shower. You'll be fine, I think."

  And with that she pulls away from me, leaving in here with the guy that broke my heart months ago.

  I groan, plopping in the chair again spinning myself with the tips of my shoes.

  Shawn starts whistling, staring at me in a uncomfortable manner.

  "Stop looking at me weird, go stare at a picture of Venus or a guitar or something." I grunt, spinning myself so he'll be looking at my back.

"Trust me, I wouldn't want to be looking at you. Venus wants me to get along with you since you're her bestfriend." He air quotes.

  "But I don't want her hanging with you because of what happened with your last close friend." He adds with hatred.

  "Don't even start with this right now Shawn. I had reasons to why I acted like that. It's your fault anyway." I fire, turning to face him.

"It's your fault! I came home from touring, hoping to catch-up with you but you decided that you were too good to be my friend and left me!" He yells, throwing his hands up.

  "You're the one that didn't text me for months Shawn, months! They stopped when you said you'll text everyday. I would've been happy with at least a "hello" but I didn't get crap. Could you blame me for how I acted?" I mockingly question.

  "I was really busy (Y/N). Trust me, I wanted to say hi and gave you calls. I wanted to talk to you but I couldn't because we had showed every night. And when there wasn't a show, I was writing my next song for the 2nd album! My career was blowing up! I couldn't waste time, because one day it'll all end. I need to live right now or I'll regret it." He explains, but all I heard was one part.

  "So I was a waste of time huh?" I scoff, crossing my arms.

  Shawn stares at my in disbelief.

"Is that all you got from what I just told you?" He asks.

"I don't know, you tell me." I sneer.

  "Why would I stop talking to the person I had a crush on huh? Why would I do that to myself?" He confesses, laying down on the bed.

I choke on my spit slouching over on the chairs to tell to keep my lungs in my body.

"Y-you liked me?" I sputter out.

"Yes I did, but not anymore. I have Venus and I love her. She's everything I want in a girl." He sighs.

My heart shatters at his words.

"Oh yea. Totally, I get it, Venus is amazing." I respond, tears stinging my eyes.

"She really is."

"What are you guys talking about?" Venus voices, walking in with damp hair.

"Oh nothing." Shawn clears, sitting up.

I turn my chair the other way, pulling out my books.

"Yea, nothing." I whisper.
