From outside, Shawn and Camila would look like an ordinary two people talking the night away but to them it was more than that. To Camila it was respite from pain and suffering and to Shawn it was hope for a better future. They just looked at each other as raindrops collided with the window panes. The first thing to come out of Shawn's mouth was "Wow." And Camila simply reiterated "Truly." But neither one of them was talking about themselves, their voices blended together was what astounded them, how well they fit like pieces of a puzzle.
"You're insanely good," said Shawn with admiration in his eyes.
Camila let out a giggle, surprised at herself she covered her mouth abruptly. "Me, good?" she uttered, "That's hilarious, you should hear yourself sing."
"Take the compliment Mila," Shawn laughed, " I don't usually give them."
"Fine," she said dragging out the e, "thank you good Sir."
She laughed softly and rolled her eyes mockingly. "You're welcome Madame," he said bowing slightly.
He chuckled and she turned bright pink.
"Do you by any chance want to get out of here and just go for a walk?" asked Shawn hesitantly, hand outstretched for Camila to take.
"I'd love to." replied Camila taking his hand.
Camila's small hand in his, Shawn walked towards the exit. He opened the door for her, always the perfect gentleman.

"So, what are you all about, apart from being Pine Ridge's mystery man?" enquired Camila, the cool breeze blowing made her shiver.
Shawn, not having a coat to give her, warmed her up by wrapping his arms around her. He said, "Well, I'm really passionate about music and I love spending time with my family."
"Do you want to pursue a career in music?" she asked.
"It wouldn't work out so why bother, I'm probably gonna study architecture at university," shrugged Shawn.
Camila was saddened at hearing that, she knew he had potential, if only he were willing to explore it. But then again Camila didn't believe in herself either.
They walked along the moonlit street for a while, not saying a word. Sometimes silence is the strongest means of communication.
--- Hi everyone, Long time no see. Sorry for this chapter that's literally all fluff but I guess it's cute. So, I met Shawn 4 days ago, it was the best night of my life and I still can't believe it happened. 😭 I miss him so much. —I
