~ Shawn's POV ~ I lay down on my bed as a tear rolls down my cheeck. Ashley brought all her stuff to her dad's home, so she probably meant to never come back. I cover my face with my pillow and cry. It starts with a little sobbing, the more I realize she left me, the harder I cry, ending up crying desperately. I'm so stupid, why didn't I let her go? Why?! Why didn't I just let her talk with her dad. I just tried to protect her but she didn't understand. I cry harder and harder until my head just feels like a rock. So heavy. And my eyes are all red and hurting. What did I do to myself. I feel so much pain. So much pain. I need her. So much...
As I walk down the stairs to get myself a glass of water I meet my mom. "Shawn what happened? You cried? Where is Ash?" She questions. "Dunno." I reply quickly before rushing into the kitchen to get myself that glass of water. I bring it upstairs. I decide to check my phone. 1 message Maybe it's from Ashley! My heart almost pops out of my chest of excitement, maybe having a message of Ashley. When I open iMessage I am really really really dissapointed when I see the message's from Camila. I open it.
Mila😝 Hey Shawn, wanna go out tnt?
Sheewwn✌️ I can't I'm sorry.
Mila😝 What's wrong?
Sheewwn✌️ Nothing, just wanna be alone atm
Mila😝 If you are sad, you just need to get out and forget about your problems.
Sheewwn✌️ I'm not coming
Mila😝 I'm picking you up at 9.30 PM. You better be ready.
I decide to ignore her. And if she really shows up, to tell her again I'm not coming. I lay down on my bed again, not knowing what to do. I have a shower for a good hour. Hoping my eyes get less red. I hear my dad and Aaliyah coming home. From who knows where. I hear Aaliyah yell "Shaawwwnn!! You should come right now!! We have a surpriseee!! Ashleyyyy!!! Comee!!! Shawn!!!!" It makes me more sad to hear she is expecting Ashley. I dry my body and get myself sweatpants and a sweatshirt. I slowly walk downstairs and Aaliyah yells excited "Shawn!! Close your eyes!! Ashley close your eyes too!!" I close my eyes "ashley is not here Aali" I hear her sigh dissappointed "oh..." she's not asking for an explanation, maybe she feels that there's something wrong. I feel her hand grabbing my hand sweetly and peaceful leading me to a direction that, what I think, should be the living room. She let's go of my hand "don't move" she commends. I nod "okay" I hear her footsteps as she walks away and from a little distance she claps in her hands "open your eyes!" I slowly open my eyes. There stands Aaliyah next to the couch. Holding a cute little puppy. It's a black, shiny puppy, from which I think, I don't know much about dogs, is an English mastiff. I walk up to Aaliyah and the dog and run my hand over the soft skin of the excited puppy. Aaliyah looks at me with shiny, happy eyes.

^ that's the puppy
"Don't you think it's really really cute?" Aaliyah asks, excited. I smile a little when I see both being so happy and excited. Aaliyah puts the puppy on the ground. And as soon as the little black, fluffy thing is released, it runs up to me and jumps up, landing on both it's backpaws and leaning his forepaws on my legs. I pick the little dog up and it immediately starts licking my face. I hold the puppy away from my face and laugh "don't do that" I say as I close my eyes. The puppy barks softly and I hold it against my body, making him stop barking. "He likes you Shawn" Aaliyah says. "I like him too Aali!" I say. "What's his name?" "You can give him a name! It's your dog, your responsibity, like dad said" I look confused "my dog?" Aaliyah nods "yes, your dog, dad thought I was too young for such a big responsibility like a dog. "Oh" Aaliyah doesn't even look dissapointed "how will you call him?" I think for a moment "I will call him Wizard. Can I?" Aaliyah smiles "yes you can!" She says as she looks back at the dog "so you're name is Wizard!" She lays her hand on Wizard's back.
I spent the whole afternoon playing with Wizard, we played with a ball, I layed on the ground and Wizard walked all over me, softly pushing his wet nose in my face. I laugh and roll over, making me lay on my back. Wizard crawls on me and lays down, lays his head on my chest, and falls asleep. I don't care laying on the hard, cold floor. This moment is precious, this dog saved me a lot of crying. I feel my head getting heavier and reach for a pillow, trying not to wake up little Wizard. I succeed. I manage to grab the pillow and slide it under my head without waking up Wizard. I fall asleep with the little puppy sleeping on my chest. About an hour later Aaliyah wakes me up "Shawn, dad wanted me to wake you up, because your back will hurt if you keep laying on the ground." I yawn "you're right" I pick Wizard up and lay him on his pillow. He still sleeps. I yawn again as I stand up. And the sadness immediately turns back into my mind. I grab my phone and see Nash texted me
