You were alone in your family's house back home in Pickering. Having some alone time you were reading a book whilst sitting in the backyard. You had thrown some blankets and pillows onto the bench on your huge patio to make it more comfortable.

You had fairy lights lit around you and some music playing in the background. It wasn't chilly at all yet but the heat of the summer day slowly faded away as the evening proceeded. The whole atmosphere was really calm and made you feel very happy.

With Shawn as your boyfriend, sometimes life became a little hectic and fast going. Not that you didn't enjoy being with him. It was just his job that sometimes became a bit too much for you. So when Shawn told you he'd be going out with some of his old friends from school who he hadn't seen in a while, you were not at all annoyed he wouldn't be spending the evening with you.

After a while of reading you became thirsty and prepared yourself a drink. As you came back outside you got comfortable again and this time instead of grabbing your book you closed your eyes. You felt yourself slowly drifting off to sleep with a smile on your lips.

But suddenly a loud noise made you jump. You looked around, sleepy, not really knowing where that noise which kept going came from. Eventually you spotted your phone on the table and realized someone was calling you. Quickly you grabbed it to answer the call. "Hello?"

"Hey y/n!" Shawn. Why was he possibly calling you. You looked at your watch and realized it was already 10pm. You must have slept for way longer than you had thought. But even at 10pm he should still be out with his friends at the pub. "Can I come over?" he asked you. "Why, of course. But what's up? What happened?" you were confused as to why Shawn would suddenly want to come over even though he was out.

"I'll tell you when I get there. I'm about 10 minutes away." With that he hung up. Wondering what could possibly have happened at the pub you wrapped one of the blankets around yourself. Shawn sounded very upset and you really couldn't come up with an explanation for it.

Only a couple minutes later you heard someone approaching the patio from inside. You turned around to see Shawn coming over to you. He lifted up the blanket which was covering you and joined you. Laying right next to you on the bench he placed his head on top of your stomach whilst wrapping his arms tightly around you.

He didn't say a word but he didn't need to for you to know something was really upsetting him. You were stroking his hair, quietly humming to the slow music to calm him down.

Maybe he just needed some company you thought but suddenly you heard soft sniffing. You couldn't see his face but he was crying, you were now sure about that. Your heart broke a little. "Shawn, shhh. What's wrong?" you whispered. The sniffing stopped but he still wouldn't speak up.

"Shawn I know you are crying. No need to hide that from me" you gently pushed his head to the side so he was resting on your shoulder and you could see his face. He looked up at you and the tears rolling down his cheeks made your heart break even more. You brushed them away with your thumb and pressed a soft kiss on top of his head.

"Talk to me, please" you pleaded.

He cleared his throat a little and finally started talking. "You know that I went out with Brian and some other old friends, right?"

You nodded carefully. His voice sounded so weak, you could barely keep yourself from starting to cry as well.

"I just, I just couldn't keep on being with them anymore. All they were talking about was how famous I had gotten. And how that benefited them. Some of them told me how they'd gotten girlfriends just because these girls knew that they are friends with me" he sniffed again but kept talking.

"They wanted me to sign some pictures they brought with them. Can you believe that? We used to be friends and now all they wanted from me were some stupid autographs" a tear was about to roll down his cheek again but you were very quick to brush it away with your thumb. He turned in your arms to hide his face in your side. You pulled him closer to your body and rubbed his back whilst placing a few kisses on top of his head.

You didn't really know what to say. This had never happened before. Usually no one in Shawn's personal life, neither friends nor family, ever used him for something. Everyone just kept on treating him like the normal person he was. What had happened to him earlier must have been the first time he ever experienced something like that. "How did Brian react to that?" you asked quietly.

Shawn glanced up at you again. "After some time when he realized how uncomfortable and quiet I was becoming he was the one to tell the others we needed to leave. And on our way to our cars he kept talking about what assholes they all were. But I didn't really listen to him because all I wanted to do was see you."

"Oh baby" you felt so sorry for him. Your whole body was aching because you had to see him like that. He seemed so feeble and hurt.

Ao your tried your best to comfort him.
"Brian is right with what he said. They are all assholes when they treat you like that. You deserve so much better than them. See it like this, now you know who your real friends are and who fake friends. And they obviously are just some fake friends who you don't have to care about then.

You have so many people in your life who really do care about you and love you so incredibly much. Brian does, Aaliyah, your mum and dad. And I do Shawn. I love you more than anything. Not for your fame, but for who you are. I love everything about you and I hate to see you hurt like this."

Shawn was still looking at you but he had no tears forming in his eyes anymore. His face slowly came closer to you and stopped only inches in front of yours before he finally kissed you. The kiss was not as intense and you felt Shawns weakness. But when you opened your eyes again and you looked back into his you could see how thankful he was for your words.

"I love you so much y/n. You're right I don't need any of them as long as I have you" he whispered before lying his head back down on your shoulder. You saw a tiny smile form on his lips as he closed his eyes and you pulled him even closer.

He was right, as long as the two of you had each other, there was nothing that could break either one of you.
