Shawn:

Maya was still sleeping, I'd be too but I just couldn't.

It's 4am.

There were all these lyrics stuck in my head and I just had to put them in paper. Get them out of me!

I didn't want to bother Maya so I walked downstairs with my songbook and sat down on the couch writing everything down.

"Hey what you doing?" I heard her faint voice and looked at the stairs. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to wake you." I said softly and she sat down next to me.

"You didn't I wasn't sleeping just laying down." She laughed and I kissed her cheek. "Uhm... I hope you don't mind but Lauren asked me to go out with her later today." She said rubbing her hands on her thighs.

"No. No problem at all." I replied with a smile.

I don't have anything against it. Just because she hurt me doesn't mean I want to keep Maya behind walls, away from her.

"I don't mind you being friends with Lauren." I said and she layed down on the couch resting her head on my lap.

"Shawn." She said softly and turned on her back so she was looking up at me. I smiled putting my book down on the table and playing with her hair.

"Yeah?" I asked smiling down at her.

She took my other hand and played with my fingers. She's trying to make me forget She even called me.

"Maya?" I questioned. "How much do you love me?" She asked and I furrowed my eyebrows together. "What are you doubting Maya?" I asked a bit hurt that she would question my love for her.

"No nothing Shawn I promise!" She said with her eyes widening. She sat up immediately and held my head in her hands. She could probably hear I was hurt.

"Please don't ever doubt my love for you Maya. I love you so much and I'll never want to leave you or love anyone else." I said and she kissed me almost directly after I said that.

"That's what I was hoping because I just want to tell you how much I love you. You're the best thing that ever happened to me Shawn." She said and I pulled her onto my lap.

She was straddling me as I pulled her closer into my chest. "You remember that day at the fountain in Madrid?" She whispered softly and I nodded, kissing her neck.

"This is what I wished for." She said and looked at me. I just smiled at her and felt my heart skipping a beat.
