Fallen Angel {Shawn Mendes}

Chapter Eleven

-Baileys POV-

After Alex got that text, we sat in silence for a little bit until she sighed longingly to herself, I assume.

"What?" I asked. She got this worried expression on her face. "You don't have to say if you're too uncomfortable!"

"No, no, it's okay. So, I haven't told anyone this besides Shawn, but when I was 6, my dad used to abuse me. Physically, verbally, and sometimes sexually. My mom didn't know until I was 12, when she had just left him. She thought it was her fault because she was always away on work trips and stuff, but I insisted it was my fault. And I still do insist it's my fault. And I'm scared because he just got out of jail, and we still live in the same house we did before my mom left him," Alex said.

"Really?" I questioned.

"Yeah, no one knew until this trip, so please don't tell anyone, that's also part of the reason why I self-harm," she said.

Wow, she really does have a messed up past. I feel bad for her. I'm glad she opened up to me. And at least she'll have Shawn leaving with her tomorrow! And at least with Shawn, she won't be alone.

~Alex's POV~

When we got back to the hotel, I was so exhausted from crying I got in bed and curled up under the covers and fell asleep. I dreamt so many dreams. Dreams about my future with Shawn. Dreams about everything.

I woke up to my alarm. It was 4:30am. I had to be at the airport by 5:30. I rolled over to see Shawn, I kissed his nose and tried not to cry. I got away from his grip and went to my luggage, I grabbed sweatpants that said "Grier" on the butt, and a Cameron Dallas hoodie, and my bandana that Tay gave me, they made me promise that I would take a little bit of them home with me.

I walked into the bathroom and stripped off my clothes. I started the shower and got in. I stood there for a minute, just remembering. Remembering all my memories with Shawn and the rest of the boys. I heard the bathroom door open so I peaked my head out from behind the shower curtain to see Shawn.

"You could have woken me up, babe, I thought you already left the hotel. Can I join you?" He said already half naked.

"Yeah, come in," I said. "HAH just kidding, no you can't come in, wait your turn you butt."

"Hey Shawn, guess what?" I asked. "You're fantabulous."

"You are, too baby," he said blowing me a kiss from outside the shower, he then brushed his teeth and went out into the room, somewhere.

I got out and I dressed myself and he slid into the shower. once he was done, he got out with a towel wrapped around his waist. He then looked at me and smiled. I blushed.

"What?" I asked.

"We all left our marks on you," he said talking about my outfit.

"Oh, yeah. I know," I said, playfully rolling my eyes

I didn't bother to do my makeup or bother with my hair. I threw it up in a messy bun and put my bandana on. I looked like a ghost. Oh boy.

~Shawn's POV~

She looks beautiful today. I'm leaving with her but she doesn't know. All my luggage is in the SUV already, I did it last night. I talked to Bart about it two days ago, he said I probably should go with her because she has no one at home and she's scared.

I had sweatpants and a loose v-neck shirt on, I slipped on an Magcon sweater. And said,

"You look beautiful."

"I look like complete shit," she said, laughing quietly, being conciderate of Hayes and Bailey.

"Baby, we should probably go. It's 5," I said. She looked like she was gonna cry.

*skip car ride*

We got to the airport and got out. She grabbed her bags. And I grabbed mine. She was still clueless as to what was happening. We walked into the airport. She checked her bags in and said,

"I have to go to the bathroom, I'll be right back."

Perfect timing. I checked my bags in and waited for her to come back so that we could go through security. When she came back her eyes were puffy.

"Alright, baby, I should probably go through security," she said hugging me tightly.

"Yeah, me too," I said and smiled.

"Okay, bye...wait what did you just say?" She questioned.

"I'm coming with you, to LA!" I said. She looked really excited.

"YOU'RE ACTUALLY COMING WITH ME!?" she asked excitedly. "Wait, you can't, you have Magcon!"

"I already talked to Bart! Let's go through security so we can get McDonalds or something, I'm starving!" I said running up to security.

We went through security and got McDonalds. We both got Egg McMuffins, I got an orange juice, and she got a caramel frappe.

~Alex's POV~

I can't believe Shawn is coming with me! I'm so ecstatic. I can't believe he planned this entire thing without me knowing! He's so sweet.

"Gate B, flight 279 to Los Angeles, California is now boarding, thank you, and I hope you have a nice flight," a voice said over the intercom.

"Alright babe, that's us," Shawn said standing up holding his hand out.

"I guess it is," I said taking his hand and standing up.

We got on the plane and took our seats. The plane ride was long, but really fun. Shawn is an amazing person. I think I might even love him...
