EMILYS POV

After lunch ~
I was to go to the home where I was staying right away. After we all separated I lost track of Shawn. Walking down halls with wondering where he was I hear a singing voice. I go back to the room where I first met the family. I scan my eyes around the room. Noticing a huge glossy black piano. Shawn is playing it . I don't know the song but the lyrics are
Mercy, have mercy on my heart
Even though you don't mean to hurt me you keep tearing me apart. Please have mercy, mercy on me.
"S-Shawn?" I call across the room. He stops singing and turns to me "oh, hi Emily!" He says. "What was that?" I laugh. I can sing?" He laughs back. Standing, he walks over to me. "Obviously." I giggled. A smile came across his face. "Do you like the song?" He asks. "You wrote it??" My jaw drops. "Yes, I wrote it." "It's amazing." I say. "Thank you. I have written A LOT of songs. Wanna here the full thing?"
"Please?" "Come over here. He sits down on the piano bench gesturing me to come sit with him. I make my way over. "Ready?" He turns his head and asks placing his hands on the beginning chords. "When you are." I tell him. He gives me a wink, looks down at the keys and starts to play. The songs starts off as him humming.
You've got a hold of me
Don't even know your power
I stand a hundred feet
But I fall when I'm around you
Show me an open door
Then you go and slam it on me
I can't take anymore
I'm saying baby
Please have mercy on me
Take it easy on my heart
Even though you don't mean to hurt me
You keep tearing me apart
Would you please have mercy, mercy on my heart
Would you please have mercy, mercy on my heart

After

"Shawn, that was amazing. Your so talented." I say. His voice was beautiful.
"What can I say, I love what I do." He laughed. "How long have you been singing?" I asked. "Early teens."  He says scratching the back of his head. "Oh wow, that was a long time ago." My face looked shocked. Shawn tilted his head back laughing. A smile crossed his face. "Aren't you supposed to be leaving soon? He asked. "Oh you want me gone Shawn? Huh? I thought we had something going?" I said sarcastically. He laughed "Of course not! I would love it if you actually got to stay, Emily." He taped my knee.  "But really, we should probably get you down stairs, Hun. He chuckles. "Why do you call me those names?" I asked with curiosity. "Names?" Shawn asked. "You know, Hun, darling?" I told him. "Oh, I call everyone those names. It's my personality I guess. I can stop if you feel uncomfortable. I'm sorry." He explains. "No, it's fine. Im not complaining. I just don't get called those names." I tell him. "Oh, do you like me calling you those names?" Shawn asks. "Yeah I do. Just a little confusing for a moment." "Hmm good to know." He gives me another wink. "My number! Can I give you my number?" He pulls his phone out of his back pocket. "Yeah for sure." I take my phone out. I put my password in, he does the same. We give each other our phones. I put my contact information and type my name in as "Emily 🙃".
I finish a little before he does, holding his phone in my lap. "Hang on, almost done. Need to find the right emoji." He chuckles. "And done!" He hands his phone back and I notice the emoji is the same as what I put. "Shawn 🙃".
"Hey, we put the same emoji." I giggle. "Oh! We did! That's funny." He chuckles. "We should go." I say. "Yeah, I know where to go. It's quicker then the way Mr. Knight took you down."
Shawn stands up. "Umm how tall are you, exactly?" I stare at his tall figure. He puts his hands in his front pockets. "Hmm 6'1. He says. "Oh wow." I laugh. "Tall, I know. Come on." I stand up and we walk out of the room. He leads me down a different hallway. I'm starting to think he might be interested. Like we just met. Oh no, is it bad that I thinks he's cute. His personality is adorable. Oh my god. I'm with Collins. He knows that right??? I can't think he's cute. I can't flirt. Uhgggg.
We get down stairs and we see Sophia. "Oh! There you two are. I've been looking for you, Emily. It's your time to go, unfortunately." She spoke. "Okay, I'll be back tomorrow right?" I asked. "Yes, of course. Tomorrow and the day after. Then you make your decision." I nod as she tells me my already know schedule. "Sounds good." I look over to Shawn. "See you tomorrow, Emily." His voice was low. He took a step back letting Mr. Knight step in front of me. "Shall we?" He asks. "Alright, let's go." We headed out the door. I remembered the only thing I came in with was my phone. My bags were still in the car I had nothing to worry about... except where this place was.

I brought Shawn Mendes into the story because I thought these fillers might be a little more exiting to read with another celebrity.... in case you were wondering. Thanks for reading!
