I was running down Adelaide Street. If I was late to work again, my boss was going to fire me. This would be my 3rd time this week of being late. It's not like I mean to be late. I just hate getting up in the morning and I don't have a car, so I wake up way too late to make it on time while on foot. As I was frantically running, I bumped into something, or someone, dropping my phone and everything I needed for work.

"Shit." I muttered as I tried to pick everything up as fast as I could.
"Oh my gosh, I am so sorry!! Are you okay?" The boy I ran into asked.
"I'm going to be jobless but yeah, just peachy. Watch where you're going!" I yelled.
"I know, I know. I'm sorry. I just can't find where my tour bus is parked. I was supposed to be out of this city 30 minutes ago. Now my whole schedule is behind."
"Okay, great. Got to go, bye!" I rolled my eyes at his excuse starting to walk away.
"Wait, don't you want an autograph?"
"From the guy who's going to get me fired? No thank you?" I asked chuckling sarcastically.
"You don't know who I am?" He asks surprised.
"No?" I asked confused.
"I'm Shawn Mendes." He said smiling.
"Good for you. I'm jobless. Bye." I said bitterly before walking away.

I finally made it to work with 2 minutes to spare. I walked in to see my boss giving me a disapproving look.
"I'm not late." I shrugged with a half smile.
"Whatever. Table M7 needs drinks and table A is ready to order. We're short staffed today so be ready for whatever comes in." He said emotionless before walking to the back.
"Girl, what's your excuse for being almost late today?" My co-worker and best friend, Kate , asked.
"Bumped into some obnoxious guy." I rolled my eyes.
"Oh really? Was it Shawn Mendes? I hear he's in town." She chuckled jokingly.
"That's what he said his name was." I shrugged.
"WHAT?!" Kate screamed causing everyone in the diner to look at us. I awkwardly smiled before taking her towards the kitchen.
"Okay, that was uncalled for." I chuckled.
"You met Shawn fucking Mendes and you called him obnoxious!? What the hell is wrong with you?!" She yelled at me.
"Ladies, shut up!" Our boss yelled.
"Sorry." We both said.
"Well who is he?" I questioned.
"Only the best singer ever. I'm in love with him." She said excitedly.
"Obviously he's not the best if not many people know him."
"A shit ton of people know him. Pretty sure you're the only one cause you live in under a rock. I have tables, we'll finish this later." She laughed while walking away.

After my shift was over I began my walk home. I was halfway there when I noticed the same clumsy obnoxious boy from earlier was still here.

"Okay, if you're still looking for your tour bus, it probably left without you dude." I said while walking up to him.
He chuckled. "I found it. It's broke down though so I'm stuck here for awhile." He sighed.
"Oh that sucks. Hope you had nothing big planned."
"I had to cancel my show so I'm pretty upset about that."
"I'm sorry." I sighed sitting next to him. "Hey, since you're not in a hurry, want to hang out? I can show you around the city?" I asked him.
"I would love to." He smiled.
"Great." I smiled back.
"So did you really not know who I was?"
"I really didn't. My best friend apparently loves you. She talks about you all the time but I've never seen you."
"Do you live under a rock or?" He chuckled as we walked down the street.
