The One // Magcon

»Chapter 10«

"Listen, I know you don't want to get up, but you have to get ready for day two of Magcon." I felt Shawn's hand on my cheek.

I opened my eyes to see Shawn sitting on the edge of my bed. He looked a little worried. I frowned at the fact I had to get out of bed. I sat up, and Shawn gave me a little smile. He stood up and helped me out of bed. I got a high waisted floral skirt and a white crop top out of my bag. I went to the bathroom and changed. I really didn't want to put on makeup, so I just covered up the bags under my eyes and put on some mascara. I brushed my hair and just left it down. I walked out of the bathroom and pouted.

"Don't be so upset. You're really making me sad." Shawn came up and hugged me.

"It's hard not to be upset when you just broke up with your boyfriend when you didn't want to." I had to fight back tears.

"If you didn't want to then why'd you do it?" he asked.

"I don't want there to be anymore drama." I explained and pulled away from him.

I walked over to my suitcase and got out my white vans. I slipped them on really quick and got my phone. I walked past Shawn and to the door.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa. Where do you think you're going?" Shawn asked.

"To call someone. Don't worry, I'll be just outside the door." I ensured him.

"You better come right back inside once you're done." he ordered.

At that, I walked out of the room and dialed Savanna's number. It was on the last ring, and she finally answered.

"Hello?" I heard Savanna's voice.

"Sorry I haven't called." I scratched my head.

"It's totally cool. How was the first event?" she asked.

"Well... It was fun..." I didn't want to make Savanna worried by telling her everything.

"What are you not telling me?" she was just like Shawn.

"Do you really want to know?" I felt so guilty.

"If you don't tell me, I'm going to drive there and force you to tell me." she was serious.

I explained everything that happened. I started from the very first day. I told her about what happened at the pool, about how Taylor tried to kiss me, about Nash getting upset, how I ran off, how Matt and I were together.... the worst part was telling her how I had to let him go.

"Oh no... I wish I was there to hug you!" she sounded like she was going to cry.

"Savanna, don't cry please." a tear ran down my cheek.

I heard a door handle move. I started to panic.

"Uh, Savanna, I gotta go!" I immediately hung up and put my hands behind my back.

The door to Matthew's room opened. I saw him walk outside. We made eye contact, and then he gave me a sad look.

"What's wrong?" he left only a small gap between us.

"What?" I asked.

He lifted his hand to my cheek and wiped the tear off. I looked at his hand and then back up at him.

"Oh... It's nothing... I just-" I was cut off.

He leaned in and kissed me. I got butterflies in my stomach. I regretted breaking up with him. When he pulled away, he looked at the ground.

"Sorry.. I'm- I-" he kept stuttering. "I miss you, Bailey. I miss us."

"Me too.." I said quietly.
