Chapter 30

Shawn POV:

I climb in bed ready to go to sleep when my phone starts to ring. I groan and get ready to end the call when I see its Jess. Its 1:30 am so I have no idea why she is calling me at this ungodly hour.

I reluctantly answer the phone, "Shawn can you come to the park close to my house, it's a emergency."

I start to panic and immediately put in some pants over my boxers and run downstairs, "Jess what's wrong?."

"It's Cassandra, she's so drunk she can't even talk. Crap I think she passed out!"

I climb in the car and start driving whilst also trying to calm down Jess.

It would usually take me 10 minutes to get to the park but with my speeding I got there in 10. I jump in the car and run to a standing figure by the swings. "Jess!", I call out and she turns around.

"Oh my gosh Shawn I'm freaking out! She's not responding to me or waking up! What if she dies from alcohol poisoning?", Jess says bawling her eyes out.

I crouch down to where Cassandra is, she looked so peaceful when she was sleeping when we went camping but her unconscious figure just looks so depressed. She has a frown on her face, before I know what is happening I'm rubbing her frown hoping that she'll smile again.

I regret not talking to her for the past 3 weeks, she was so alone without Jess, Josh and I. But it's what we had to do to protect her. I thought that she'll get over it quickly as she always looks so tough. I feel so horrible being the reason as to why she's drunk and unconscious in a park.

If Jess didn't find her I don't know what I would've done.

I feel someone shake my shoulder, "Shawn are you going to put her in the car or keep staring at her?", Jess asks.

I pick her up bridal style and place her in the back of my car. I climb in the drivers seat with Jess sitting in the passenger seat. I start to drive when Jess interrupts my thoughts, "Are we taking her to the hospital?"

"No I do not want to be there when her brother get there. I've been told they are very close so he's bound to know about us ignoring her for the past 3 weeks, I don't want to be there when he wants to take his frustration out on someone," I reply.

"Yea I guess you're right. Where are we taking her then?", Jess asks looking back at Cass. She looks so beautiful even if her hair is sticking up on places and she still has that permanent frown on her face.

"I'm taking her back to mine, you can stay over and call Josh to come as well," I reply sighing. I don't know what she's going to say when she wakes up tomorrow morning.

Jess calls Josh and they talk for awhile, Jess updates him on the news.

"He's coming over right away, gosh I hope she's okay," Jess says worried, she holds Cass' hand.

When we get to my house I pick Cass up and start walking up to my room. I'm so relieved my parents aren't home but unfortunately Aaliyah is. I don't know how I'm going to bribe her into not telling my parents when she finds out.

I place Cass on my bed and take off her shoes. Jess and Josh come into the room softly whispering trying not to wake my sister up from the room next door.

"I'll get out the extra mattress from the guest room so you two can sleep on it. I'll sleep in the couch," I say gesturing to the couch in my room.

"No its fine I'll get it, you look exhausted," Josh says. I just nod in reply. It's true, I am exhausted. I've been working on scheduling a tour for next year. It's a big step, going on tour with MAGCON to touring with Taylor Swift and Austin Mahone to doing my own Handwritten tour.

Jess walks up to Cass and ties her hair whilst Josh gets the mattress and I take out some extra cushions and blankets.

We all get into bed just hoping that tomorrow morning won't end up so badly when Cass wakes up.
