35- Carly

| 3 weeks later |

I walked down one the large aisles, watching the boys set up yet again another stage full of there equipment. With each place we stopped at the concert halls grew larger, and the fan ratios doubled. We were now in Toronto, Canada. Home of Shawn Mendes himself. Tonight we were going to experience a little bit of what it was like to live like Shawn, we were planning on going too meet his family then to someone of the places he loved to go too growing up. The past month with these guys have been one of the best summers I have ever experienced, it's sad too say that in 3 short months I wouldn't be touring with them anymore but sitting in a small school working my ass off too graduate. "Carly!" Carter's voice echoed in the gigantic room.

"Yes?" I asked, whipping my body around too face the stage.

"Jack wants you."

"Okay," I said smiling, walking through one of the large white doors on the left of the stage.

I walked up the marble staircase, entering back stage where Jack and Johnson sat planning out their show for tomorrow night.

"Hey, you wanted me?" I asked gaining Gilinsky's attention.

"Princess, we need a favor from you," Jack cooed, standing up.

"Mhm?" I questioned nervously.

"Well you know how you are singing tonight with Shawn?" He asked, a slight hint of hesitation in his voice.

"Mhm.." I breathed out.

"Well, the fans love you. So I was thinking would you maybe sing with me and Johnson? We have a song that needs female vocals but she isn't around anymore," Jack mumbled on.

A slight pang of jealous coursed through my body, he was talking about Madison. I know I shouldn't be jealous of her, but I couldn't help myself, 3 years they were together. She was kind of someone important in his life, and he still has failed to mentioned her to me. I did know the song though, but I don't think I was ready too do something like that. What happens if I can't sing like her?

"Carly?" Johnson asked, starring into my eyes, "You okay?"

"Yah, I am fine," I mumbled out, looking at the floor.

"So could you?" Jack asked, placing his arm on my shoulder.

"No," I breathed out quickly, "I would never be caught dead singing a song that you and your ex sang together."

I looked up at him, anger flashed through my eyes. I stormed off, hurt he would even ask me too do such a thing. I know I was overreacting slightly but I couldn't help it.

"Carly!" Jack shouted behind me.

"What?" I hissed whipping around too face him.

"I realize that was stupid of me too ask of you. I didn't think it would mean anything more too you then just a song," He eyes pleaded me too stay.

"Why won't you tell me about her?" I said lowly.

"Because she is my past Carly, and I do not want my past to get in the way of my future. Thing were said and we weren't our best selves when we were together," He paused brushing his hair out of his face, "But the past month with you Carly, has meant more too me then everyday I spend with Madison."

My heart dropped, his words calming every nerve that was once in my body. I can't believe he feels that way around me. He stepped closer brushing a piece of hair out of my face.

"I think I have fallen for you, Carly Grier," He cooed, gently placing his lips on mine.
