{Shawn's POV}
"I have good news!" Y/N stated while storming into my room.

"But no manners," I joked. She rolled her eyes and sat next to me on my bed.

"How would you feel if I set you up with a girl I think you'd definitely like?" She asked. I placed my laptop next to me and faced her.

"Who?" I asked.

"Only the girl you've been crushing forever. Lauren." She smirked. I smiled widely before bringing her into a hug.

"You're serious, right?" I asked while pulling away to look at her. She nodded and I hugged her again. She laughed before standing up.

"Well, let's go shopping for new clothes," she grabbed my hand and led me into her car.

{Y/N's POV}

I was looking through racks of shirts for Shawn before my phone vibrated in my pocket. I picked it up without looking at who it was.

"Hello?" I placed my phone between my shoulder and cheek and proceeded to look for clothes.

"Hey, Y/N. It's Lauren," I smiled and replied.

"Oh, Hey. Is everything okay?" I asked.

"Yeah, I was just wondering what to wear for the date. Since you're his best friend I figured you'd know," I chuckled.

"Well I don't know where he's taking you. But if it's a casual date, I'd say some jeans and a cute shirt, maybe a jacket if it's cold. If it's a fancy restaurant or somewhere like that, wear any dress that isn't too revealing. He doesn't like things like that."

"How about a black one?" She asked.

"Perfect," I said. "Don't wear too much makeup either. He thinks girls look better with natural makeup." I explained.

"Finally, no matter what. Don't let him take you to see a movie." I said, making her laugh in confusion.

"Why?" She asked.

"He'll suggest it because he thinks it's what all girls like. If he says a movie, tell him to watch one at home. He always gets bored in the movies and then get pissy because he can't leave," I began "And whatever you do, do not watch a scary movie. He'll get more scared than you. Watch a comedy, or a Disney one. And get lots of junk food. But not any gummy candy because he doesn't like it. Get chips and soda,"

"Seems like you know more about him than himself," she chuckled. I smiled and picked out a white shirt. "Does he have a tendency to fall asleep during movies?" She asked.

"Yes, more than most people. If he falls asleep, let him lean on you, whether it's your stomach or your shoulder. He loves holding girls when they're sleeping and he won't tell you but he secretly loves being held and play with his hair."

"If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were in love with him," I laughed awkwardly and brushed it off.

"Hey, Y/N. What about this?" He asked and held up a light pink shirt.

"I have to go, we'll talk later if you want," we both said our goodbyes before I hand up.

"Shawn, I mean this in the nicest way possible. That's the ugliest shirt I've ever seen," he sighed and I held up the shirt I found.

"What about this?" He smiled and nodded before taking it out of my hand.

"It's perfect," he grinned.

I watched as his eyes scanned over the shirt and his mouth turned up slightly as he nodded.

Of course, Lauren was right. I loved Shawn. I told him in the ninth grade but he told me we'd be better as friends, so I agreed.

"Y/N?" He waved his hand in front of my face. I shook my head and looked into his eyes.

"We need to go," he lifted up his bag with the shirt in. I nodded and followed him out of the store.

"Do I look okay?" He asked. I forced a smile and nodded.

"She's here, do we have food ready?"

"Yes, everything's fine. I'll leave now," he nodded as I made my way downstairs. I opened the door to see Lauren.

"Oh hey, Y/N." She smiled.

"Hi, I was just leaving." I smiled before walking past her and into my car. I took one last glance back to see them both hugging before Shawn kissed her on the cheek.

I sighed and drove away, letting the one I love, love someone else.
