Camila's P.O.V.

I take in my appearance in the full-length mirror one more time; I'm wearing a navy blue camisole, a pair of blue, high-waisted jeans, white Vans, and a blue denim jacket. My hair is simply down and I have hardly any makeup on. I shrug before turning around to grab my backpack. Good enough for a Monday.

Just as I swing the bag over my shoulder, my phone buzzes with a message. I pick it up from the nightstand and unlock it to find a text from an unknown number.

[7:13 a.m.]
Unknown: morning beautiful ;)

I furrow my eyebrows before typing in a reply.

[7:13 a.m.]
Me: um who is this?

[7:13 a.m.]
Unknown: it's Shawn lol I just remembered that I forgot to give you my number

I smile widely before saving his number quickly.

[7:14 a.m.]
Shawn💙: anyway how are you this fine morning?

[7:14 a.m.]
Me: it's a Monday and I have school so I'm excited yay. (Note my sarcasm)

[7:14 a.m.]
Me: but other than that I'm fine :) how are you doing though?

[7:15 a.m.]
Shawn💙: my day was good so far but it got waaay better as soon as you replied to my text ;)

I feel my cheeks heat up a little and I bite back a smile at his adorable cheesiness as he starts typing again.

[7:15 a.m.]
Shawn💙: so I was wondering if you'd like come hang out with us again this weekend

[7:16 a.m.]
Me: I'd love to really but unfortunately I'm grounded :(

[7:16 a.m.]
Shawn💙: what dad found out you were drinking on Saturday night? ;)

I frown and bite my lip as a small piece of my heart breaks off. He just had to mention my dad.

Though, I'm not mad at him for it all. I didn't tell him that my father died as well so he doesn't know about it, therefore, I don't blame him for saying (or in this case typing) that.

[7:17 a.m.]
Me: if he were alive he'd ground me for that for sure

Shawn doesn't reply for a couple of minutes, which suddenly makes me guilty for sending that to him.
