*Listen to Bad Reputation by Shawn Mendes*

Prompts: 19 - "I think i'm in love with you, and that scares the crap out of me."

20 - "I think you're just afraid to be happy."

Shawn was the boy i had been crushing on since freshman year. The tall, broad shouldered boy with the light chocolate brown eyes that i adored. He also happened to be my next door neighbor, so he saw, and heard it all. My reputation at school wasn't the best, considering the stories that had been told about me. Everyone had heard a story about me and had an opinion on it, and as much as i tried to let it go, i couldn't. There were people in my school who set a reputation for me before i had the chance to even set one for myself, and to make matters worse, it was a bad one. Shawn was on the basketball team at school, so he heard a lot of the things that were said about me.

I sighed as my phone dinged and i picked it up, swiping the screen to see the message. 'Unknown: you're a nasty slut.' I sighed and locked my phone as i tossed my it on the soft blanket. This week had been exceptionally awful considering a new rumor about me being passed around. This time, there was a backstory to go with it, following a party i attended over the weekend. I had gotten drunk, and danced to a couple of songs with a guy from my class, who turned things around by Monday morning. The looks and whispers i got as i walked into school were worse than usual. "Are you okay?" Shawn's head popped through my window and i sighed as i shrugged. "I guess i will be." I said and closed the textbook i was reading. "You know no one believes that stuff, right?" Shawn whispered and i scoffed. "Sure. That's why i get so many comments, right?." I sighed and he shook his head. "Why do you care what others think so much?" Shawn asked as he climbed through the window. "Because, it's my reputation these people are messing with. That matters to me, Shawn. Why do you care so much, anyway?" I asked as i packed my backpack. "Because i think i'm in love with you and that scares the crap out of me." Shawn said and tried to grab my hand, but i shifted away. "Shawn, i think i'm in love with you, too. But, we couldn't be together because you know i have a bad reputation. It would just mess up your's too, and i don't want that." I whispered and looked into his eyes. "I don't think that's it at all. I think you're just afraid to be happy. I don't care what they say about you. I know you better than all of them, and i know the things you've been through. I've lived next door to you our whole lives. I want to be the person you need in your life. Let me in, let me see the girl that's behind those walls." Shawn whispered and i looked up at him. By this point, we were both sitting on my bed, my hands were in his, and his face was inches from mine. I glanced at his lips, then his eyes and i closed the gap between us. Finally.
