I looked away, refusing to look at his broken figure. I felt his soft hands cupping my face. He turned my face to make me face him. He had puffy eyes as well but all I could see was the most beautiful angel alive.

"Malia.. don't doubt yourself. You're perfect in my eyes, that's all that matters right? Having that one person who admires every flaw you have, that person who looks at you like you're the most precious thing to them. I admire you more than anything in the world, you're so important to me that it hurts. Your flaws are the most perfect thing to me, they make you one-hundred percent more beautiful in my eyes. Don't ever look at yourself like you're not good enough for someone, you're you and you just need to find the person who accepts you. You don't need to compare yourself to anyone in this world, ANYONE. Don't ever tell me you're weak, you're the strongest girl I know. You get beaten down by Ethan, Nash.. but I still see you stand up again. I love that quality, it's rare as well. Some girls just go suicidal, or they go running to others crying. Have you told anyone you were suffering? No,and even though I don't like seeing you hide things from me, please don't ever hide anything from me, yeah... I still find that strong and brave. You may think your voice is horrible but oh lord.. Your voice is the most angelic sound I've heard. You may think your style is low but you're cute. Your style defines you. You don't need to lower your esteem by looking at other girls who you think are so much more perfect than you because I believe, I believe in my eyes you're perfect and I love you for who you are" Shawn said still looking deeply into my eyes.

"I don't care what others think of you, I've waited for this moment for so long Malia, you don't understand. I've waited for a hell lot of time to call you mine, I've been trying to keep patient but you're killing me. You're making me insanely in love with you." He said grabbing my hands. "Have the honours to be mine?" He asked smiling, he reached behind his pocket and grabbed a banana. He placed it in my hands. "I find you so 'apeeling' and you drive me bananas" He smiled cheesily. I lightly laughed at his pun as I felt tears streaming down. "Of course" I smiled still crying of joy and sadness at the same time. "But you're such a dork" I laughed wiping my eyes. "But I'm your dork" He smiled bringing me in a hug. He wiped my eyes before bringing me in a kiss. His soft lips in touch with mine, it was perfect.

I sat on the couch watching 'The Vampire Diaries' with Aaliyah. Shawn went to go buy things at the groceries at this time of the night. "Excited for tomorrow?" I asked Aaliyah. "Yes!" She bubbled as she jumped around the couch making me laugh. "So when do I have to go again?" I asked. "11-1" She said leaning on the couch. "Great, I'm excited for you" I smiled. "You're the best, thanks for coming" She smiled scratching her neck a bit. "Of course I'm the best!" I joked flipping my hair with my hand making her laugh.

"I'M HOME!" Shawn screamed from the door. "SHUT UP!" I yelled at him. I heard him chuckled in response. "BOO YOU, NO ONE WANTS YOU HERE!" I yelled booing him. "Yeah yeah Mal, just cause everyone loves me. Jealous much" He teased laughing. Aaliyah ran to the door instantly "ME ME ME ME ME!" She screamed as she ran. Me being the lazy me.. Followed later, I'm still working on it. Don't worry I'll get there.

"What's good?" I smiled at him as I walked into the kitchen. "Fooood" He smiled placing the bags on the floor. "Yum" I licked my lips. "None for you, you said no one wanted me" He said crossing his arms. "Whatt?!" I cried whinging. "No Shawnnn!" I begged holding his shirt as I dragged it down. "Nope" He smiled evilly at me. I pouted and turned away. "Malia" Shawn said. "No" I said turning away from him, I wasn't mad. I was actually totally fine, I just wanted to play around with him.

"No baby, I'm sorry" He said wrapping his arms around me from behind. I still tried to walk away. "Awh I know you love it when I do this" He smiled pecking my cheeks from behind. I groaned and sighed since I knew I couldn't get away with this, I do love it when he hugs me from behind. I smiled and pecked his quickly on the lips before seeing Aaliyah packing away the food and snacks. She reached to all the cabinets, the fridge and the drawers. I helped a bit but since I was too lazy I gave up halfway.
