Shawn Mendes Imagines

A Better Place [ONE-PART IMAGINE]

(A/N: Check out my new book Shawn Stuff, it would mean a lot!)

(Y/N) = Your Name  
(S/W/N)= Shawn's Wife (who's not you)

Your POV
There she was, walking down the aisle and soon to be married to Shawn. Tears were building up in my eyes, I've had a crush on him since elementary and had been good friends with him all the way up to this point. I wanted us to be together, but this one bitch had to ask him out to the junior high prom and they've been a couple ever since. 

I had to attend his wedding, he was my best friend and I had to support him. His friends Cam, Nash, Ian and the rest of the Magcon Boys were already married, and Shawn was the last one to have a wedding out of all the boys.

"Shawn...I love you...." I whisper to myself as a tear rolled down my cheek. The wedding ceremony began and I kept my head down the entire time. 

The part when they exchange vows almost made me wanna bawl, I don't wanna hear Shawn saying yes to someone who's not me.

"(S/W/N), do you take Shawn to be your lawfully wedded husband?"

"I do." She replied and I gulped. Now comes the part I don't wanna hear.

"And Shawn, do you take (S/W/N) to be your lawfully wedded wife?"

"Yes, and I promise to never hurt you, leave you or let anyone else take your spot as my wife." He replies and my heart instantly shattered.

"I now pronounce you Mr and Mrs Mendes. Shawn, you may kiss your bride." 

He leans in and seconds later, they kissed passionately, earning applauses from the crowd. I tried to keep in my tears, but I couldn't take it anymore. I ran of the church and bawled loudly. The love of my life can't be mine anymore. 

I took a piece of paper from the church and a pen as well. I wrote down my wishes for Shawn and (S/W/N). I placed it beside the presents people brought for them and went back outside. I can't believe what just happened.

**AN HOUR AND A HALF LATER**

Shawn's POV
We were at the party after the wedding ceremony, and it was time for some of my friends to give their wishes and speeches. Everyone had something funny to say, while others were kinda weird.

"Last to speak is Y/N Y/L/N!" 

I waited for my best friend to approach the front, but no-one showed up. I started to get a little worried. We waited for about 10 minutes, but nothing happened. 

"Alright, we'll just have to leave it here." I say and the party continued. (S/W/N) went to her family, while I searched for Y/N. We've been best friends since elementary and I did see her at the wedding ceremony. 

I went to a corner where the presents were and saw a note for me. I read it and gasped:

Dear Shawn,

With this letter, I say a final goodbye to you. You might have noticed I'm no longer on your friend and followers list on social media. I just wanted to wish you the best with (S/W/N). Don't worry about me, I'm headed off to a better place. I wanted us to be together and had a crush on you long ago, but sadly that can't happen anymore. Take care and best wishes for the future.

Y/N.

What do you mean a better place!? Where are you going Y/N!?

I searched around the church to see if she's anywhere, but no luck. I went over to the bridge where me and Y/N first met as little kids. Police were surrounding the area. I gulped as I hesitantly stepped closer.

"W-What's happened here?" I asked one of the officers.

"We've got a girl who jumped off and landed hard on the raging river. She didn't make it unfortunately..." 

I looked down to see a familiar body and I quickly ran down there. It was Y/N!

I began to tear up and went closer to her lifeless figure.

"Why, Y/N? Why did you do this...?" I whispered as a tear landed on her forehead. I nuzzle my face into her shoulder and cried into it. 

My best friend since elementary left me, and I never had the chance to even say goodbye.
