Shawn's POV
I walked Y/n home after school since we are neighbors. She thanked me and went inside. I could tell that she had a rough day. Walking inside my house, I went up to my room to see Y/n on her bed, hugging her favorite pillow, and singing "Me and My Broken Heart" by Rixton.
Tears poured from her eyes and I know it hurts not being loved back.
🎶All I need is a little love in my life
All I need is a little love in the dark
A little but I'm hoping it might kick start
Me and my broken heart
I need a little loving tonight
Hold me so I'm not falling apart
A little but I'm hoping it might kick start
Me and my broken heart🎶 she sang passionately.
My heart wrenched. I hate seeing her in so much pain. I called Lucas and he answered on the second ring.
"Hey Shawn," he answered, "what's up?"
"Hey can you meet me at the park in like 5 minutes?" I requested, "I need to talk to you."
"Sure man. See you soon," he replied.
"Bye," we said in unison before we hung up.
I put my phone in my pocket and started to head out the door, but before I could I heard Y/n's voice from my window.
"Where ya going?" She asked.
"I'm gonna meet a friend. I'll see you later okay?" I replied.
"Kk, have fun!" She smiled slightly.
I smiled back before heading to the park.

In exactly five minutes, I arrived at the park and I saw Lucas sitting on the bench.
"Lucas!" I called.
He turned around and got up once he saw me. I stormed over to him and grabbed the hem of his shirt.
"Why are you being such a jerk to [Your Nickname]?" I yelled.
He put his hands up in defense, a scared look on his face.
"What do you mean?" Lucas asked.
"Not talking to her for five years when you clearly were friends, not returning the kind gestures she throws at you," I list.
"I wanted to get over her! I don't know how to love her like she does me!" He yells back.
I let go of him, a shocked expression upon my face.
"If there's anyone you can learn to love it's Y/n, just give her a chance," I say.
"Alright. Why are you doing this for her?" Lucas asks, "You clearly care about her."
"I may or may not have strong feelings for her, but she only sees me as a friend. There's nothing I can do to change her feelings about you," I explain.
Lucas nods, "You're a great friend Shawn. Helping her like this and showing me what I'm too blind to see."
I laugh lightly, "Thanks man."
He pats me on the shoulder and says, "Why don't you take me to her house so I can talk to her."
"Yeah lets go," I agree.
We start to walk and every step I take makes me happier that Y/n will be happy again.
