Ava's POV

"Reservation for Klase?" Shawn says to the lady at the front desk of the diner. I shoot him a look What the hell? He holds up his index finger indicating that he would tell me in a minute. I huff and cross my arms to be petty.

Shawn swiftly pulls me over to the side and softly says, "Mendes attracts people's attention, so I used your last name. Is that alright with you?" I smirk. "Of course booger brain. Just tell me next time. And did you really need a reservation for the diner?" He holds his hand to his heart and scoffs. "I'm offended! And yes I did. And no I'm not extra." I just laugh and we catch up with the waitress.

She points to a table for two and we sit down. "What can I get y'all to drink tonight?" She asks with her southern accent. "I'll take a chocolate milkshake!" Shawn excitedly says back, he's such a kid. "I'll take a vanilla milkshake."

That was the worst thing I've ever said. It ended up leading to an argument with Shawn about how vanilla is better than chocolate. Wasn't that fun.

He reaches over and tilts my head and looks at me in the eyes. "God I love you." I hear him whisper. I'm so God damn lucky. "I love you too Shawn." I smile. He rubs the back of his neck and laughs awkwardly. "Haha I do love you Ave, but I moved your head so I could see if that was our waiter and I said 'God I love food." Now I laugh awkwardly.

"Oh haha. Well sorry, but you're kinda stuck with me loser." I smirk at him. "Oh no what am I ever going to do?" He asks sarcastically and throws his head back dramatically. I roll my eyes and watch as the waiter sets our milkshakes on the table. Mm. "Thank you." Shawn politely says to the waiter.

"Vanilla is better." I say under my breath, but of course he heard it. "Okay when was the last time you even had a chocolate milkshake?! Try it!" He says. "Uh, 5 years ago with you! In a diner in Canada!" I state proudly remembering the fact. He rolls his eyes. "You know your taste buds can change right?" He asks with a hint of sarcasm. "First, your taste buds don't change, the way you taste food is different. And second, fine! I'll try your stupid shake! But hey! You have to try vanilla, otherwise no deal." He smirks in approval.

"I'm keeping this." We both say at the same time. While laughing I think, God we're so stubborn. The waiter makes his way back to the table. "So what can I get y'all foodwise?" I take a second to respond because I didn't actually look at the menu.

"2 bowls of Mac 'N Cheese both with sides of fries. And also an extra plate." Shawn beats me to it. I smile and wonder why he didn't order and barbeque sauce but then I see that there's already a bottle at the table.

All throughout the dinner I smile and laugh at Shawn's corny-ness. The check comes and I reach for it even though I know he won't let me pay. He gives me the bitch no face and I hold my hands up in surrender. "Jeez jeez okay." I smirk and we entertwine our hands and we walk outside to a brisk wind. He leans down and pulls my face slowly closer to his building my anticipation. He stops centimeters from my face and I close the gap.

"God I love you." I put my head on his chest. "I love you too Mendes."
