Rosie's PoV
Later that day
Matt and I had just got back from school and we decided to hang at his house for a bit. I was still a little shocked about the whole magcon thing considering Shawn is in it too but I've chosen not to mention it or mention about Shawn being my ex best friend.
Yep. He's my ex best friend now. What's the point in saying he's my best friend when we don't talk at all anymore? It's not worth it so I've given up.
"Hey you've never told me what your Instagram name is" he told me from his desk chair. I was sat on his bed.
"Oh yeah, it's @RosieRxsesGx" I told him. He nodded and put it into his phone.
"Bit of a random name for an account?" He chuckled. I shrugged.
"I love roses don't judge me" I said. He held his hands up in defence and saw he had requested to follow me, I accepted and clicked on his account to follow him too.
Holy shit.
57k followers
"Holy sh- Matt you're followers! You make mine look like poop. 137 I have" I groaned. He laughed.
"It's all thanks to vine" he answered. I tried my best to ignore the comment, not wanting to slip up about Shawn so I clicked follow then locked my phone.
"You got vine?" He asked. I shook my head no.
"You should get it!" He encouraged.
"So I've been told before" I said referring to Shawn, but he didn't need to know that.
"I'm serious though, you can become popular like me!" He chuckled.
"See that's where you and I are different, I'd rather not live the whole 'famous' kind of life." I answered.
"What do you wanna be when you leave school then?" He asked. I shrugged.
"To be honest I'm not sure. I mean, I love to dance and sing but not in front of people really. So I guess that's kind of out. Maybe a kinder garden teacher or something? I dunno..." I said. That's when my eyes caught a guitar sat in the corner.
"That yours?" I asked, pointing to it. He looked over and watched as I walked towards it.
"Yeah, I pre had it since I was fifteen" he said.
"You any good?" I asked picking it up.
"Hell no, I got it for my birthday two years ago and haven't touched it since. I gave up on the first day" he spoke making me laugh.
"I'll teach you if you like?" I suggested a little timidly.
"You play?" He asked. I nodded.
"Yeah umm, my best friend back from Canada taught me when we were thirteen" I answered a little shyly. He smiled.
"Can you play me something?" He asked.
"Err, I guess" I said sitting on the edge of the bed.
"We keep this love in a photograph, we hold these memories for ourselves...where our eyes are never closing, hearts are never broken and times forever frozen still...
So you can keep me, inside the pocket of your ripped jeans. Holding me closer till our eyes meet, you won't ever be alone. And if you hurt me well that's okay baby only words bleed inside these pages you just hold me, I won't ever let you go. Wait for me to come home."
That song reminded me of Shawn. We only have the memories of each other on pieces of paper now, the photographs of us. Now that I've moved away it's almost as if he's waiting for me to come home, because believe me I'll be back in Canada one day. As much as I hate to admit it, I'd love to cross paths with Shawn again but I don't see it happening anytime soon.
"Oh my- ROSIE THAT WAS AWESOME!" He yelled. I laughed.
"Thanks?"
"You wanna teach me?" He asked sitting beside me. I nodded and handed him the guitar as I started to teach him some of the chords.
This reminded me of the first time Shawn taught me. It reminded me a lot actually but that wasn't a bad thing. After many mistakes, Matt had finally nailed the chords.
"Maybe another time I'll teach you a proper song rather than just the chords" I told him as he out the guitar back in the corner.
"Sounds good" he nodded.
"Keep practising them chords" I told him. He nodded again.
"I will. That's a pretty necklace you got there, I've noticed you wear it everyday" he pointed out as I sat back down at his desk.
"Oh umm yeah, my best friend gave it to me" I said a little nervously.
"Awe that's so sweet of her"
"Him" I corrected. He chuckled.
"Him. Sorry. What's his name?" He asked. Do I tell him?
"Shawn" I said looking at my lap. He nodded.
"Cool name, I've got a friend in magcon called Shawn" he said. Yeah I know that because he's my fricken ex best friend dumb ass.
"Oh cool" I said.
We stayed silent for a moment but it wasn't awkward.
"Yo when are you gonna start driving? You're sixteen now you gotta learn eventually!" He stated. I chuckled and shrugged.
"Soon I guess" I answered.
"Hell yeah it's gonna be soon, I'm gonna teach you"
"Oh god"
