Well, were in Forever 21 in the mall right now and Mae had two arm fulls of clothes she wants me to try on. Like literally, arm fulls.

"Mae, I think you have too-"

"Yes, can she try all these on?" Mae ignored me and went straight to the changing rooms lady. She looked pissed that Mae had that many clothes for me to try on, but she also looked like she didn't give a shit about her job so she let her through. Damn, minimum 6 my ass.

"Okay. We're trying on the slutty ones first." Mae said, walking into the family sized dressing room with me, hanging up the clothes one by one.

"All of them are slutty, Mae." The thin, sheer fabric of the dress in my hand made me laugh. Like she actually thinks that I'm gonna wear this.

"Psh, nonsense." She grabbed the first one off the rack; a navy blue skirt with a white off the shoulder crop top. And when I mean cropped, I mean cropped.

"Mae, there's nothing left to the imagination." I grumbled trying to slide the crop top over my body. Damn, this thing is tight.

"Sure there is!"

"Yeah, no." I said, not even putting it on fully before sliding it off over my body.

The next outfit was actually really cute. It was a pair of grey leggings, a maroon cropped crew neck sweatshirt, and a grey scarf.

"Shit, this one's actually really cute." I mumbled, checking my ass out in the mirror. The grey made my ass look even bigger. Damn.

"I know I know, I'm amazing." She waved her hand in the air as I threw a shirt at her.

"Shut the hell up." I mumbled. She laughed while sticking her tongue out at me. What a hoe.

So we walked out of the mall successfully buying four sweaters, six pairs of leggings, three dresses, my new hairstyle, and some Panera in my belly. All in all I think it was a pretty successful day.

After I got home, nothing eventful really happened. The only thing that was fun was me throwing all of my semester notebooks away, but apart from that, It's been super boring. You ever feel on top of the world then all of the sudden you're at the bottom of it? Yeah, that's how I'm feeling.

Right now, I'm laying on my stomach on my bed, watching videos of little kids singing like they're forty. It truly gives me chills. Why are people just naturally talented? I'm pretty sure the only talent I have is being able to cry and eat at the same time.

"Must be nice." I mumbled to myself as the one video ended. The next video in the queue was a video of Shawn. I felt my heart sink into my stomach. Don't watch it, don't watch it...

"Fuck it." I mumbled to myself. The video started and it was a black screen. Then it brightened up. The only thing you could see was a silhouette of a tall man, which I was assuming was Shawn. Then the song started. It was one I'd never heard before.

"Holy shit." I mumbled to myself as he sang his heart out. Chills grew on my body as he grabbed the microphone. What the hell was this song?

As the song continued, I could feel those damn chills throughout my body again. Holy shit. You know when you listen to a song and literally everything applies to your life and you feel like the song was written about you? Yeah, that's what I'm feeling right now.

Roses. That's what it was called. Holy shit. When did he write this? I don't ever remember him mentioning it.

"Holy shit." I said to myself as I propped myself up more. Every lyric seemed to apply to my life. Well, apart from the 'other guy' part but, still.

My phone ringing interrupted my confused train of thought. Thank god.

"Hello-"

"HEY HI SHIT" Mae screamed through the phone, cutting me off. I held it away from my ear so I wouldn't go deaf.

"Holy shit Mae can you calm-"

"HOLY FUCK ADS." She yelled again.

"What!" I yelled back.

"SHAWNS COMING HOME TOMORROW FUCK." She yelled. I felt my heart sink into my stomach once again. Shit.

"Wait, what-"

"ADS!" Colton barged into my room all sweaty.

"Why the fuck are you sweaty?" He looked down at his shirt for a second then back to me.

"CAUSE SHAWN"S COMING HOME TOMORROW BITCHES!" he yelled, shaking his booty awkwardly before skipping out of the room like a little girl.

"How the fuck do you guys find this stuff out so quickly?" I asked to myself but Mae responded.

"I get his updates on twitter obviously." Mae said and I could practically hear her flip her hair. She continued on about how we are so in love with each other as I droned her out. Oh my god. Shawn's coming home tomorrow. Coming home. Shit.

"You guys are gonna get married, then have four kids and a dog and-"

"Mae. Stop." I cut her off. She was silent as I continued. "Remember he has a girlfriend?" I felt my body grow cold at the word. Girlfriend.

"We don't know that-"

"Yes. We do." I cut her off again. "Trust me, it's never gonna happen so just let it go." I said, running my hand through my hair. God it's so soft.

"Ads."

"It's never gonna happen. " I mumbled before hanging up. I groaned loudly before rolling over on my back, looking towards the ceiling. This sucks. Tears started to cloud my vision. Angrily I wiped them away because it was pointless to cry over something that never was. Goddammit Ads, get over yourself.

I woke up to the sweet smell of waffles. Fuck yes.

My head slightly hurt from me crying like a little bitch last night so I just popped some Tylenol, hoping to forget about it. I slipped on sweatpants and a sweatshirt before running down the stairs. Honestly, couldn't' care about my looks anymore.

Mom was in the kitchen, wearing nothing other than her pant suit combo, while making waffles. God, I love waffles so freaking much.

"What's the occasion?" I asked, hoping onto the stool, resting my arms on the counter top.

"Oh, I just figured since it's your first day of break that I'd make you guys a nice breakfast." She said, smiling as she flipped a waffle onto a plate, sliding it towards me. I slapped on some butter and poured half a bottle of maple syrup onto it before digging in.

"Thanks mom. " I mumbled through a mouthful of food. The light, airy waffles seemed to melt in my mouth.

"No problem sweetie. " She said, finishing off the waffles before grabbing her to go cup of coffee.

"Bye, have fun at work!" I yelled as she strutted out of the kitchen.

"I want this house clean when I get home! Were having a small get together!"

"With who?" I asked confused.

"Why the Mendes' of course! By sweetheart!" And with that, she shut the door. Fuck. Why do they always come over for damn dinner parties?
