@margotkatefranklin: "and I hope you don't hurt me, but oh if you do, it'd be worth getting hurt by you."

He kissed me.
He actually kissed me.
And it was...perfect. Exactly the way I hoped it wouldn't be.
"You shouldn't have done that," I told him after we had pulled away, my voice quiet and hesitant. I didn't mean it. I loved it.
"Wh—why not?" he asked in a worried tone.
"Because it was perfect," I replied, and he laughed.
"I'm not following, Margot," he said.
"Because the kiss was perfect, this day was perfect, you're perfect. And you deserve someone so much more than just me," I told him, looking at the ground.
"Are you kidding? I've been working up the courage for almost month to tell you how I feel because I've been so scared that you will say you're not into me. You're smart, and funny, and so ridiculously talented, and probably the most beautiful person in the world. So don't say that you don't deserve me, because there's no way that I deserve you."
I felt my cheeks turning red and couldn't help but smile. "You really do know all the right things to say, don't you?"
He smiled as well. "I think I've just finally met someone that makes me want to say them."

later that night...
Finally home.
I was eager to tell Liz my adventures of the day, but I hurried up the stairs to see her passed out on her bed.
I sighed and grabbed a pair of sweatpants and an old soccer t-shirt to change into. I changed and washed my face, brushed my teeth, etc.
After I had finished my nightly routine, I hopped into bed and immediately pulled out my phone.
They say that being on your phone is the WORST thing you could ever do right before bed, but I really done care. Like who isn't on their phone right before bed?
(a/n: honestly, the only time I even write is right before bed 🤷🏼♀️)
My Twitter was blowing up. I opened the app and saw a ridiculous amount of notifications. I figured there would be because of the song and all, but the most recent ones were not about the song.
They were about a picture.
Of me and Shawn.
Kissing.

the fall • s.m.
Fanfiction"Falling for you is dangerous. I can't control my own emotions, my own movements when I'm with you. If I fall in love, you know what will happen next between us. The fall," I said. There was silence between us for a few moments, and my heart pounded...
