Falling For You || Shawn Mendes

Chapter 47 - Drunk

Lauren's P.O.V.

I straightened my body, as I leveled myself beside her smoothly. I held my head up high, trying my best to look the prettiest as ever.

I won't let her sink me down.

Even if I admit, a lot of guys were eyeing her the whole time. She's too beautiful.

But I won't let that happen between us. I needed to be way more prettier than her. Yeah, way more prettier.

As we passed by several windows, an idea popped in my head.

"Have you ever been to a bar?" I smirked.

She raised her eyebrows at me, "no. Have you?"

"A lot of times. What do you think of hitting one right now?" I said.

"Sure," she shrugged.

Good.

Lily's P.O.V.

After a few hours of shopping, we went to this bar, which was actually crowded. We spent about a few hours here, but I thought it was a bad idea.

I tried squishing myself through the sweaty people dancing their butts off.

I don't feel comfortable at all.

How can Lauren survive all of these anyway?

I walked up to Lauren who was drinking effortlessly by the bar, flirting with the bartender.

"Laur?" I said. She laughs as she slurps the small glass.

"What?" She slurred, trying to look at me.

"Laur, I think you're drunk. We should probably go," I said.

"No!" She said, "can't you see, I'm having the time of my lifeeee!"

"Yeah, we should go home. Let's go." I said, she gave in. I tried to carry half of her body with me.

We made it to her car as I got myself in the driver's seat. She sat comfortably in the passenger's.

A few minutes of driving, we made it to the hotel.

I opened the suite and closed the door right after. I dragged her on the sofa.

"Here Laur, stay here. I'm just gonna get some things, I'll be right back." I said. She groaned as she nodded.

I stood up as I went outside to buy some medicine.

Shawn's P.O.V.

I shuffled in bed, clearly couldn't sleep.

Where's Lily?

I stood up as I heard noises in the living room.

I opened the door as I went outside. I saw Lauren on the couch.

"Lauren? Where's Lily?" I said walking up to her.

"I don't fuckingg knooowww," she slurred.

"Are you drunk?" I said.

"No," she said.

I sat beside her, I can already feel the smell of alchohol sliding through my nostrils.

"Lily went out.. to, I don't know.." she said.

"Where have you guys been? I've been waiting for her since the past 3 hours," I said.

"Yeah, sure! Lily. It's always Lily!" She said.

"What?" I said.

"Why not me Shawn! Huh? Why not me?! I can be better than her! I can be worth your love. Just give me a second chance." She slurred.

"Lauren, you're drunk. You don't know what you're saying." I said.

"I may be drunk but I know what the hell I am saying. And what I'm saying is that, I still love you Shawn. Please, take me back." She said.

I shook my head, but as I was about to get up, she suddenly pulls me close to her, crashing her lips into mines.

I heard the door open. I pushed her away from me, as I turned to the door.

"L-Lily, I.." I stuttered. Tears were running down her cheeks, as she ran away.

Shit.

I stood up to follow her but Laur caught my hand.

"Shawn, let her be! Just stay with me." She said.

"No Lauren! I love Lily! I love her with all my heart. Please just leave us alone!" I said as I ran to the door.
