Becca's P.O.V.

I wake up the next morning and turn over to see him in a deep sleep; I then try to wiggle out of his hold without waking him, but fail.

"Hey..." he says in a low, raspy morning voice facing me, smiling. "What?" I ask biting my lip; his morning voice is too hot

"I like... waking up next to you" he says trying not to smile, as I try the same. Again, I fail.

"I'm going to go make you breakfast" he says standing from the bed. "No I'm fine" I say standing up as well. I probably look like a mess.

"You don't have to do that with me, I'm making you breakfast" he demands leaving the room smiling widely like always.

Once he leaves, I grab my bag that I brought to the party, and leave for the bathroom.

I put my hair in a bun, and wash off all my make up not caring anymore, then changing back into my clothes from last night.

I leave the bathroom, I walk down stairs to the kitchen and I swear I just walked into a breakfast wonderland. What is the boy trying to do?

"Hey... so I have pancakes, eggs, bacon, toast, Omlets and waffles. Or do you want cereal?" he asks but I don't answer, just stare.

"Umm... that's a lot don't you think?" I question chuckling a bit.

"Yeah, I didn't know what you liked so... I made everything..." he says chuckling along to.

We stuff our faces together and when I get done eating, I feel sick. I ate a pancake, some bacon, and toast.

"Shawn I'm home..." we get interrupted by ... his mom. Oh Lord, I'm not ready to meet her, not like this. "Hey mom in the kitchen" he says, what?

What is he doing? Shouldn't he be trying to sneak me out or something? We walk into the living room area together, not that it was my first choice.

"Oh, well hi! Who is this?" she asks looking at me smiling. I probably look like I just crawled out from a garbage can.

"This is Becca my-" he stops and we look over at each other. He grabs my hand and squeezing it a bit. She notices the contact,

"This is Becca, my girlfriend" he says almost proudly? Wait... what? Girlfriend? I gulp before nodding. I knew this would happen, and I don't know if I can handle this.

I go to shake her hand, but she rejects it and pulls me into a hug instead. I see where Shawn gets his kind heart. I give her a wide smile before Shawn and I head up to his room.

"So... girlfriend?" I question raising my eyebrow as I closed the door, "Yeah... is that okay with you?" he asks grinning standing in front of me.

"Yeah" I respond with my back pressed against the closed door, "good" he says striding over to stand right in front of me, he wraps his arms around me resting his hands on the small of my back and leaning his forehead against mine.

"Can I kiss you now?" he grins. I smile, and nod before he does as so.

When he pulls away I wish he hadn't. It makes me forget about everything. It's perfect. I snap back into reality when my phone starts vibrating.

It was Ben asking me when I was going to be down to perform again. I respond saying, "I'll be their today.

Shawn P.O.V.

"Can I kiss you now?" I hope I don't sound like I'm begging, even though I am. She smiles, with that great smile of hers, and nods.

Once my lips meet hers, I can't concentrate on any other thing but her. It's perfect. I pull away and look at her with full intentions to kiss her again, but before I get the chance to, she gets a text, so I stand there patiently while she replies. As soon as she's done, she begins to speak,

I think back to the first time I ever spoke to her and the same words fall from my lips, "You're the one" I say blinking a few times. She smiles, but that goes away quickly "What?" I ask "You know? I mean... my voice." she says upset with the topic

"Yeah...you have a beautiful voice" I say meaning it whole heartedly. She just brushes it off so I decide to just leave it for now, mainly because I still want to kiss her again.

I lean back in and kiss her for a split second before she pulls away and whispers against my lips, "I have to go." I don't want her to leave because I know she is upset. "Do you want me to drive?" I offer.

"No I'm fine" she says, handing me the clothes I gave her last night. I hand them back to her

"I want you to keep them" I say simply she puts on a fake smile and set them on my bed before walking out of the door.

I felt like that was it. She was gone, and no string of words could even begin to sum up the pain in my chest. There I stood, me and my broken heart.

Becca's P.O.V.

Once I shut the door, I knew that was it. I couldn't stop the tears streaming down my face.

But it's for the best; this wouldn't be fair for him. Besides, there was no future for us, how could he ever want me?

I wipe my cheeks and let my curls lose from my bun to cover my face when I see his mom. "Leaving so soon?" she asks with a pouty face. "Yeah, I have a family thing" I lie before leaving the house and driving home.

I rush through my door, up the stairs and onto my bed. I can't let this effect me tonight; I couldn't do that to Ben. I will sing and hear others sing too and be with my family, not by blood, but by heart.

I decide to get ready early to keep distracted.

"Hey!" I shout heading over to Sherry, who is waitressing.

"So how have you been doing? I haven't seen you in awhile" she asks giving me a hug, I admire her red curls that hang low and her cheek bones are flawless.

"I have been studying a lot" I lie,

"Well, this place stinks without you" a male voice chimes in. Jerry. "Jerry!!" Sherry swats him. "Well it's true" he defends

"Thanks Jer." I say with a light smile, "Where is Ben?" I question "Office, go ahead he won't care" Sherry says motioning me to the door. I do as said and walk in.

"Rebecca!!" Ben says standing to his feet to give me a hug.

"We have missed you around here!" he says, "Have you already sung? Don't tell me I missed it!" he asks

"No I was going to go right now act-" he interrupts, "Well lets go then!" he says pushing me to the front of the stage. "Good luck" he says before he sits down.
When I walk on stage towards Mark, the DJ, I already know what song I'm going to pick. "Hey Becca" Mark greets, "Hi" I say back, "So you know what song?" "Yeah, 'Complicated' by Avril Lavigne

****

"Okay, this is the last one guys." I say into the microphone. Everyone boos and I lightly smile at their kindness.

"Gravity by Sara Barellies" I say to Mike before I begin. I open my mouth to sing the first line...

"Something always brings me back to you" fills my eardrums... but it's not my voice. It's Him.
