After our visit to North Carolina, Shawn and I settled back into the cold atmosphere of Canada. We got back on a Saturday and stayed up late. We were watching some shitty TV program. "I want waffles." "Shawn it's three in the morning. I don't have pancake mix. I don't think I even have a waffle maker." "Who said we had to make them?" He grabbed my hand and we headed out to his truck. He opened my door for me and I hopped in. "Babe where are we going?" "We're going to Waffle House." "At three in the morning?" "Of course!" I laughed and plugged my phone into the system 'Play It Again' by Luke Bryan coming on. "Yesssssssss oh my god I love this song." "Since when do you like country?" "Shawn I'm from the south western part of Pennsylvania. We do country down there. " I laughed singing along, "She was like oh my god this is my song, I been listening to the radio all night long, sitting around waiting for it to come on and here it is. She was like come here boy, I wanna dance, 'fore I said a word she was taking my hand spinning me around til it faded out, she gave me a kiss. And she said play it again, play it again, play it again." Shawn shook his head laughing. 'We Run This Town' then came on. "I'm seeing a pattern here." "Hey, he's attractive." "Excuse you?" "He looks like you. It's fair." He laughed and shook his head. He got a smirk on his face and started rolling the windows down, and sped up. "Shawn!" "We're in the middle of no where, like any one's going to see us." I shook my head and turned up the music. "Yeah man we run this town!" We sang along laughing, being just loud.

We arrived at Waffle House, the parking lot empty (who's here but the workers at this hour?). We walked in laughing at something Shawn had said. "Hi, Welcome to Waffle House, pick a seat." "They have a jukebox here??" "Yeah, duh." I ran over and looked through the albums and smiled when I saw 'Thinking Out Loud' by Ed Sheeran was on. I pulled out a couple coins, (Shawn had explained the whole loonies thing.) and dropped them in. "You know me too well." I smiled taking his hand and spinning him around slow dancing with him. He put his hands on my waist and swayed gently. "You know I don't dance, right?" "You do now." I giggled taking his hands and showing him how to waltz. He stumbled causing him to blush and looked at him. A couple people walked in smiling at us. They were a couple years older, with a random fifteen year old, it looked like. I saw her face light up. When the song ended we sat down and ordered. Shawn played with my hands looking, examining them. I heard the familiar beats of Life of The Party and smiled. "Shawn looks like you've got a fan." He chuckled and looked at me. "Yeah." I looked at a mention I had gotten. "Shawn and Erika went to Waffle House. A fan got a vine of them and look at how cute they are!" I shook my head and looked behind us. The girl had a camera on me and started blushing as she noticed me. 'You're fine.' I mouthed and smiled. I ate one waffle with eggs while Shawn ate like five. "You're a pit of I don't even know." "I'm a guy with high metabolism. It happens." I shook my head and left to the car with him, hand in hand after we paid. 

"That was a great idea." Shawn shouted above the blaring 5 Seconds of Summer music (Rejects to be specific). "What?" "I said 'that was a great idea'!" "Oh! Yeah!" I laughed and turned down the music. "Why'd you turn it down?" "I wanna hear your voice that's why. I won't get to hear it later." "Er.." "Save your breath. I get it." I sighed and looked at the notification I had gotten. I opened twitter and my eyes widened. "Oh my god." "What? What's the matter??" Shawn looked at me panicked. I tapped on a link and Shawn's voice came through the speakers "She's a bad ass girl." and then an instrumental. "Oh my god... They didn't.." "Shawn... they leaked the album."
