Recap of last chapter: *Shawn and Rose's conversation after doing the dirty*
We lie here in silence for a few minutes and all that can be heard is the sound of our breathing. "Did you get a call from the audition people?" I ask him as I look up at the ceiling.
"Yup." He says. "Did you get the part?" I ask. "Nope." He says. "Oh. I'm sorry." I say. "Did they call you?" He asks me.
"Yeah they did." I say and play with my fingers. "What's they say?" He asks. "They uh- they offered me the part....and I said yes." I say.
"Oh well I'm happy for you." He says and turns and smiles at me and I look at him. "I have to leave for Europe in a week."
"What?"

"Shawn please just calm down for a second please!" I yell as he gets out of the bed and gets dressed.
"How am I supposed to be calm?" He asks me as he gets his clothes on. I sit up in the bed and cover myself with the sheets.
"Why are you even upset?" I ask. "Because of of this!" He says and motions his hand back and forth to me and himself.
"Rose I love you and I thought that just a minute ago everything between you and I was going to be okay. Now you're telling me that that you are going half way across the world for who knows how long!" He yells.
"Shawn just because we slept together didn't mean that we were getting back together and maybe we shouldn't have done that, but there's nothing I can do about me leaving." I say.
"Yes there is!" He says. "Are you telling me to pass up this opportunity?" I ask him and I'm a bit surprised.
"I'm asking you to stay here and help me fix us." He says. "Shawn what happened to you telling me to live a little? I can't let this opportunity go." "You didn't even want to audition for this damn movie? Why do you care so much now?" He yells.
"Because I need to get away from here Shawn! I need to go because if I stay here any longer I'll end up just running back to you and eventually Shawn there won't be an us to fix because we will both just be so broken and..." I pause and blink away the tears in my eyes.
"And I don't want what happened to my parenst to happen here okay? You just have to understand that right now I don't need this. I have to go." I say.
"No, I can't just met you do this." He says. "Are you kidding me? Shawn I, sure when you left to start your music career there were people who wanted you to stay. But you left because you knew it was the right thing to do." He says.
"But I wasn't doing it to be selfish!" He yells.
"Fuck you Shawn! How dare you call me selfish when you're the one who doesn't want me to go! I will go freaking insane if I stay here and if I go home then I'll be miserable! So you know what maybe I am being a bit selfish but I get to be every now because all my life I've always done what makes other people happy!" I yell and he scoffs.
"This is ridiculous. I can't believe you right now." I say as I get up and get my clothes on. "Yeah just leave! It's obviously what you do best." Shawn says.
I ignore him and walk towards the door. My eyes water up and I turn and look back at Shawn and we make eye contact.
"Bye Shawn." I say and walk out. I go to my room and call my mom.
"Mom." I say and it's like she knew something was wrong. "What's wrong honey?" She asks me. "I uh-I'm gonna a get a fights home tomorrow. I have some big news and I want to see eveyone." I say.
"Okay honey. Well I'm off of work so I'll pick you up from the airport." She says. "Okay." I say and then we hang up.
I begin to pack my things and I managed to book a flight for tomorrow morning. Once I'm finished packing I go over to Geoffs room to say bye.
I knock on the door and a minute later a sleepy Geoff answers.
"Hey can I come in?" I ask and he nods and rubs his eyes. "What's up?" He asks me. "I'm going home." I say and now he's fully awake.
"Why?" He asks. "I got that movie role and I want to see eveyone before I have to leave for Europe in a week." I say and he smiles.
"Oh wow! I'm so proud of you." He says and I smile. "Good to know someone is." I say. "Shawn wasn't happy?" "No, he asked me to stay and then we argued." I say and sigh.
"What did he say when you said you were going home?" He asks me.
"I didn't tell him and I'm not going to because I know he'll try to stop me. I also know that if I go talk to him right now he'll look at me with those dreamy eyes and beg me to stay and I'll do it, but I can't do it. I won't." I say and Geoff nods.
"Well I won't say anything. At least till after your gone." He says and I smile. "Thanks." I say hug him.
We say our goodbyes and then I go back to room to get some sleep. Looks like I'm going home.
