Always💜 (S.M)

Chase Jacobs.

Small town super star.

I admit he was talented but not nearly as musically gifted as Shawn.

I'm not sure if it was just my mind going crazy but i could've sworn his eyes kept scanning me. I alway looked away when he caught my gaze awkwardly. God why was I such a spazz?

When he had finished 3 songs it was once again time for the game to resume.

Jess turned to me excitedly.

"Omigosh!!"

I scrunched my eyebrows in confusion and gave her a confused look.

"Did you not notice that chase couldn't keep his eyes off of you?!"

I shook my head.

"No he wasn't you're crazy," I fake laughed. I knew it was true though.. now it was confirmed because someone else had noticed it too.

I usually don't get hungry so I'm surprised when there's a hollow groan echoing from the depths of my tummy.

I stood up in the dark sky and headed to the concession stand to purchase a pretzel. Goodness I'm stupid for not bringing a jacket.

I wrap my hands around my arms in an attempt to add some heat in my chilled bones.

I then pull out my phone and grin when I see I got a Snapchat from Shawn. Weirdly enough, I almost forgot about him. I see him spinning around his recording room with his mouth open and his eyes wide. Before the last second of the video can end, I feel a leather jacket around my shoulders.

I spin on my heels to travels that my face was inches away from Chase Jacobs. I gave him a small smile not knowing what to say praying he would say something first. Of course he didn't.

"Thanks... you were really great out there."

He raised one eyebrow playfully and smirked devilishly at me.

"What.. I wasn't absolutely AMAZINNNNGG?"

No because that title belongs to Shawn's voice and I can bet that in my whole life I'll fail to find anyone with a greater talent than him.

I just smiled a little bit wider at him.

I purchased my pretzel and I could still feel his gaze on my back causing me to feel self conscious. When I turned back around  I was face to face with him again, I kicked a pebble and stared at my shoes. His ice cold finger was under my chin pulling it up. Shawn's was always nice and cool or comfortingly warm.

He tilted my head up and a cool breezes blew my hair.

"Beautiful." He said making my cheeks go pink. He chuckled a bit.

"Let me take you out for coffee," he stated smiling and shoving his hands in his jean pockets,"tomorrow... We can go 45 minutes before school.. Jane's Cafe?"

I looked up at the star filled sky before making eye contact with him again.

"Sure.. sounds nice." I shyly smile making him confidently laugh again.

"Until then miss... im sorry I never got your name?"

"Bella.." I reply softly.

He walked off shaking his head but not before I hear him whisper "beautiful" once more.

I wanted to go home right after that. And, like I predicted, jess didn't. keep in mind there was a tent type ceiling above the bleachers that happened to be waterproof so if it rained you were okay if you stayed in the stands. As soon as I told jess I was leaving and was halfway down the street from the field, it started to downpour hard leaving me exposed with little pellets of freezing cold pain all over my shoulders and cheeks. I got a call and answered when I saw it was from Shawn.

"HEY" I half yelled through the loud rain.

"Bella?? Why are you outside in the rain?" He sounded confused.

"I WANTED TO LEAVE THE FOOTBALL GAME AND JESS DROVE ME HERE. SHE WANTED TO STAY."

"What?! Bella how far is your house from there?!"

I hesitated before answering knowing how worried he gets over stupid things.

"Bella I swear to god.."

"6 miles.. why?"

"6 MILES?! BELLA WHAT THE FUCK?!"

He was shouting now.

"I had no choice Shawn I'll be fine."

"Bella it's fucking freezing rain outside. And it's dark do you know what sick physcos would kidnap you right there and no one would be able to stop them?!! Turn around. Turn the fuck around now Bella."

"Shawn stop I can take care of myself."

"Bella no offense but you couldn't even lift an empty suitcase. Turn around."

"Shawn I'll just call chase."

"Chase?" His voice sounded softer now for some reason.

"Chase Jacobs. We became friends tonight. If you're that worried I'll call him to make you happy."

Shawns POV

Happy? I wasn't happy she would call another guy for protection but it's better than her being kidnapped and probably... well you get the idea.

"You can trust this chase guy?"

"I don't know I think so."

I sighed lightly so she couldn't hear it.

"Thanks for looking out Shawny.. Camille all you went im home."

"Okay bellz... oh and Bella?"

"Yes?"

"Be safe okay?"

Then we hung up with each other.

She was calling some random guy who could be a freaking rapist to pick her up. She's freezing cold with no ones arms to Go into for warmth.

It was in that moment I knew.

I had to be there for her.
