I was driving carefully, following Shawn's directions. I didn't talk at all. He didn't seem okay. He was worried about something. I caught him looking at me but he didn't say anything for what had happened minutes ago.

He was now staring at me, making me feel uncomfortable. I slightly moved my body closer to the wheel.
He was still looking at me.
I got annoyed.

"What?"

"What do you mean?"

"Why are you staring at me?"

"I didn't have the chance to do so earlier."

"Yeah. Not my fault"

"You're beautiful"

I could feel the whole damn zoo in my stomach.

"Thanks"

"Turn right"

"Are you kidding me? I just passed it"

"Okay okay calm down"

"Turn right"

"Shawn! Can you please warn me on time?"

"Okay okay my bad" he said laughing.
He's cute.

"What are we gonna do now?" I asked smiling.

"Just drive. I think there is a small café near by"

"The Frankies coffee shop"

"You know it?"

"Of course I do. I told you once about it"

"No you didn't!"

"Yes I did. 'It makes the best coffee ever.' Remember?"

"Oh" he said as if it was a big deal that he forgot.

We finally got there. I parked and we quickly got in. The cafe was packed and Shawn put on his glasses and hat.

"I'll order for you too. Just go and sit somewhere alright?" I said as soon as I realized he was worried for being recognized.

He nodded and left.

"Heyy what would you like to drink?"

"Can I please have a vanillaa latte and.." I have no idea what else.

"Actually can I have two vanilla latte please?"

"Yeah and your name is?"

"Malia."

"Okay"

I spotted him sitting next to the little Christmas tree.

"I didn't even tell you what I wanted did I?

"Nop" I said passing him the drink that I bought for him.

"Is it vanilla latte?" he asked after he had a sip from his drink.

"Yeah"

"I like it"

"Hey Malia... I wanted to tell you that I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you and I'm.." he said and placed his hand over mine while he was looking at my lips.

There was a flash and people were now taking pictures.

"We need to go Shawn"

"No. Listen.." I cut him

"Come on Shawn"

I quickly grabbed his hand and walked him back to my mother's car and I pulled off.

"Where are we going?"

"To my house"

"What?" he asked shocked.

"Don't worry. I'm going to make sure that your death won't be painful"

"Ha ha you're so funny Malia"

"I know."

I parked the car in our garage and we got in by the back door. I checked the time. Oh no. It's dinner time.

"Sweetie? Are you back already? Was it that bad?"

My mum...
