This Crazy Life

Chapter 17

Shawn's POV:

I avoid Nash, the Jacks, and Gilinsky during breakfast as much as I can. They all keep trying to come up and say something to me, but always head in the other direction. If Gracie over-hears our convo then everything is ruined. Her and Taylor are a thing now, and it looks like things are going to stay that way. I don't want to ruin things between her and I. I haven't been talking to her much, but I want to at least be friends with her.

At breakfast everyone talks about nothing. I look at her. She is sitting next to Taylor and Jacob. I am so jealous. 

On our way over to the event the boys finally catch up to me. Gilinsky and Johnson grab my arms and pull me to the side of the tunnel, where Nash and Matt are waiting. "What?" I ask, playing dumb.

"You were at that party on Friday night Shawn." Matt says. The other guys nod their heads. I don't say anything.

"Seriously dude?" Nash sounds kind of pissed. "Tallk to us! We picked your drunk ass up from that party and you're not even going to tell us what happened? You've been acting really weird ever since Gracie showed up." 

They look at me expectantly. I sigh. "Ok, yes I was at that party. I saw Gracie and her friend there. Gracie is the amazing girl I met. I think we slept together."

Their jaws drop. I'm glad I finally got that off my chest, but it's still a little embarassing admitting that I was to drunk to even remeber if we had sex or not.

"Woah, dude," Gilinksy and Johnson mutter. It's creepy how much they act alike sometimes. "She's with Taylor, and if he finds out anything he's gonna chop off your head." I groan.

"I know guys. I knew it was her when we met her on the street that first night. This is why I didn't tell anyone, not even her. It would jst complicate things. Please, I'm begging you not to say anything." They all nod their heads. Thank God. 

"Come on lets get back to the guys, they're probably wondering where we are anyways." Nash states, and we all walk over to the first Denver Magcon Event.

The on stage part is really fun. Everyone does their own thing and just has a really good time. I'm about to go up and sing, but there isn't time. I'll do it before we leave Denver. The meet and greet is always my favorite part. I love all of my fans, they mean so much to me. I sign shirts, sing a couple verses for girls who ask, and take a LOT of photos. It's the best. It's weird seeing boy fans at Magcon, they're all here for Gracie. Her line is so long it stretches out into the hall.

When there is only about five minutes left in the meet and greet, I glance over at the other guys. All of their lines are down to the last couple of fans, so is mine. Then I look at Gracie's line. I recognize the fan standing right behind the boy who is talking to her. It's the kid whose party I went to. He greeted me at the door and handed me a beer, but he didn't recognize me. "Holy crap." This meet and greet is about to take a major turn for the worse.
