SHAWN P.O.V

Almost every night this week she had showed up to my house in tears. I told her to leave him but she never listened. I couldn't bare to see her in tears anymore. I loved Y/N. And I know I can treat her better than he can.

Y/N P.O.V

Jack and I have been fighting constantly this week. I know he has been hiding something from me and when I confronted him about it he blamed me for nothing. Well tonight is the night I investigate.

I was parked by his house in the dark shadows staring through his living room window as he was watching T.V.

He looked like he was waiting for someone so i called him.

Jack G:
Hello?

Y/N:
Hey Babe, you busy?

Jack G:
Yeah i kind of am.

Y/N: Oh I was just checking cause i wanted to come over.

I saw him ferociously jerk up from his seat.

Jack G:
No.

Y/N:
Why.

Jack G:
Cause i'm not home.

That bastard.

Y/N:
Oh Okay. Love ya.

He hung up on me just like that. Not even a goodbye or an i love you. He peeked through the window to check if anyone was there.

Suddenly a car had drove by me and had parked in front of Jack's house. And it wasn't his parents car.

It was a different car and it looked like a girl had owned it.

Coming out of the car was Hailey Brooks (sorry if that's your name) the biggest slut in our school.

My heart froze as I saw her walk up to Jack's door. Everything became blurry around me except the door. Once he had opened it he placed a kiss on her lips. My cheeks began to heat up and I felt my tears stream down my face. My heart was now shattered as he pulled her in quickly. My now ex- boyfriend was cheating on me.

The first place to go in my mind was Shawn's.

Shawn P.O.V

I heard the doorbell ring as I was playing a few strings in my guitar.

Once the door was opened it revealed a broken Y/N.

"What happened Y/N?" I asked as she rushed into my arms.

"He....*sniffle* was ch- cheating on me." She sobbed into my chest.

I was about to re opened the door when Y/N stopped me.

"No." I was confused because why wouldn't she want me to kill that jerk. "I just want to be in your arms right now Shawn." She sobbed once more.

I carried her bridal style upstairs into my room and placed her on the bed.

"Have you eaten Y/N?" She didn't reply and I know when she does that it means no.

"I'll be right back with some food."

Y/N P.O.V

As Shawn was downstairs I noticed his guitar by his desk and his songbook placed upside down.

Being my curious self I snatched and checked his newest song he had written, 

Treat You Better

I won't lie to you,
I know he's just not right for you,
And you could tell me if I'm off
But I see it on you face when you
Say that he's the one that you want,
And your spending all your time,
In this wrong situation
And anytime you want it to stop

I know I can treat you better,
Than he can, and any girl like you,
Deserves a gentleman,
tell me why I'll be wasting time,
on all you wasted crying 
When you should be with me instead,
I know I can treat you better,
Better than he can.

As i was reading the lyrics i was on the verge of tears. But these were tears of happiness. I only got through half when i heard footsteps coming up the stairs.

I replaced the song book and act like i didn't move.

Shawn opened the door and handed me a bowl of macaroni n cheese. "Thanks Shawn."

He smiled, "No problem."

After taking a few bites I asked Shawn, "Hey do you mind playing your newest song for me? It would make me feel better."

"Okay." He said in a shaky voice.

"I love it when you just don't care, I love it when y-"

"Not Life of The Party." I spoke quietly.

His hazel eyes met mine as he stared at me for a few seconds before stuttering an okay.

"You can't walk the streets at night, Your've way too-"

"Try again Shawn." I smiled. He started looking down trying to stall.

I placed my bowl on the nightstand and scooted closer to the edge of the bed where I intertwined our hands.

He looked up at me. "Play the real song, Shawn." I brought his hand up to my lips and placed a gentle kiss on it.

"I won't lie to you, I know he's just not right for you.

And you could tell me if i'm off but i see it on your face when you say that he's the one that you want.

And your spending all your time in the wrong situation and anytime you want it to stop.

I know I can treat you better, than he can, and any girl like you deserves a, gentlemen.

Tell me why I'll be wasting time on all your wasted crying when you should be with me instead.

I known I can treat you better, better than he can." His beautiful voice sang.

Shawn P.O.V

I looked up at her after I finished. She was gazing at me with her glossy eyes. She was about to cry.

When I was about to say something she rushed up and hugged me like earlier.

"I'm sorry." She said.

"For what?" I asked. Her gorgeous smile flashed.













"For not realizing that the right man was in front of me."
