Fallen Angel {Shawn Mendes}

Chapter Twenty-Eight

~Alex's POV~

It's been a few days since Shawn and I have hung out, but we have been texting normally. I guess he's leaving today, and he wants to hangout. Everything between us isn't how it used to be, and it never will be, which hurts. Shawn interrupted me with a phone call.

**Phone Call**

Shawn: Aaaaaaaaaalexxxx

Me: Shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawn

Shawn: Come see me before I leave, please?!

Me: Shawn... You know... I don't leave my house...

Shawn: I know Babe -Alex but I want to see you before I leave!

Me: I... Can't..

Shawn: Well, can I come over?

Me: I guess. I'll see you soon, bye.

Shawn: bye, love..

**End of Phone Call**

I feel like he was gonna just tell me he loves me. I know we're starting over, but too soon.

~Shawn's POV~

I just almost said I love you to Alex. I mean, yeah of course I love her and I want us back, and we're slowly going back to how it was before, but it was too soon for me to say those three words... 'I love you.'

I got to Alex's house and suddenly got really nervous. But I knocked anyways.

"What, Shawn?" Elijah asked.

"Hey, uhm, I'm here, to uh, see Alex," I said awkwardly.

"Why?" She sighed. "You're just gonna hurt her again."

"I won't. I promise," I said giving her a reassuring smile. She rolled her eyes and opened the door wider to let me in. "Thank you Elijah."

"Whatever. You hurt her again, you deal with me," she said. I nodded and went upstairs taking them two at a time.

I got upstairs and walked to Alex's door. I stood there for a second debating what I should do; knock or walk in. I decided on knocking.

"Come iiiiiinnn," Alex said. I opened the door and saw how beautiful she looked, even in the dark and her hair all messy, her baggy sweater. She was still gorgeous. "Hey, Shawn!"

"Hey, Alex!" I mimicked her. She rolled her eyes and scooted over on her bed and patted the spot next to her. I walked over and sat next to her. "You look stunning."

"Uh..not really I look shitty, as always," she said awkwardly pulling her sleeves to cover her hands, the cutest nervous habit ever.

"No, like really, I'm not kidding and you never look shitty," I said to Alex. She shook her head and rolled her eyes.

"Well, are you excited to go back home? See your best friends? See everyone?" She asked tugging at her sleeves again.

"Yeah, I guess," I said back. I took her hand and was playing with her fingers, I know she used to love this. It also used to calm her down.

"I wish we could have hung out more..." She said running her hand through my hair slightly tugging at the ends.

"Next time, Love," I said. My eyes grew wide at me calling her love, that was her nickname before we had our falling out...

"Shawn... You're so adorable," Alex said.

"Knut you're so much more adorable than me," I said bitting my bottom lip.
