                       Shawn's POV

       I was over at Hannah's house when all of a sudden I got a phone call from Aaliyah. I excuse myself myself from the living room so I can answer the phone. I walk into the kitchen and press the green accept circle at the bottom right corner of my phone. I put the phone up to my ear slowly. I heard some noise in the background but I couldn't make out what it was.
"Hello?" I question.
"Shawn... help" I hear a small broken voice coming through the phone.
"Aaliyah, what's going on?!" I worry as my heart rate begins to increase.
"Just come... quickly..." she says into the phone, almost a whisper.
     Before I could say anything, she hung up the phone. I slide my phone back into my jeans pockets and head back out into the living room. My eyes watering up from thinking of all the possibilities of what could have happened to her. I say goodbye to everyone. I know I'm worrying Hannah so I'll just tell her later. I quickly put my shoes on  and head out the door, a tear escaping my eye. I wipe if off and suck it up. I can't cry, not yet at least. I don't even know what's going on. Once I get in my car I drive off, going a little over the speed limit. I whip into the drive way and head to the door. It's unlocked..? I walk in and see no one in the living room, I walk up the stairs.
"Aaliyah??!!!" I shout.
"Shawn.." I hear her through the wood of her door.
"What's wrong?" I say pushing open her door.
      When I look up she's laying on her bed in a ball. She's covering her face and holding her stomach.
"Move your hands.." I demand as I stand over her.
      She slowly takes her hand off her eye and from around her abdomen. When she looks up at me, she reveals a black eye, almost touching her eyebrow and going all the way down to the top of her cheek.
"What the hell happened?!" I say getting by her side, as the bed dips down she winces in pain.
"Shawn be careful, my stomach.." she croaks.
"What happened?" I say stroking her cheek.
"I got into a fight." She frowns "the girl punched me in the face and I dropped to the ground. The last thing I remember is her kicking me in the stomach repeatedly. I just Kaye's there until a teacher found me. I'm not in any trouble though since she did this to me.." she explains.
"Why were you guys fighting?" I ask.
"She would always make fun of me and I tried to stand up for myself but then this happened. She's tougher than I thought." She giggles slightly.
"Well get some rest sweetie, I'll be downstairs if you need anything.." I smile before shutting her door slightly so I can hear her.
         I get downstairs and rest on the couch, letting out a sigh as my phone dings. It's a message from Hannah.

Hannah💞: babe what the hell is going on?! Please call me!
