Shawn's P.O.V.

After sitting down for awhile, I realized what happened. I get up and change into a white pair of jeans and a black v-neck.

"Bye Aaliyah" I shout dodging my little sister in the living room "Bye?" she responds more as a question.

I'm now out the door running up the street. I make it to the parking lot and stop right at the door to catch my breath before walking in. I look around and spot her on stage.

"Okay, so this is the last one guys" she says, when everyone stops booing I hear the music begin. Wait I know this. This is our song.

"Something always brings me back to you.
It never takes too long.

No matter what I say or do I'll still feel you here 'till the moment I'm gone."

I sing surprising everyone. I nod telling her to go along as I make my way to the stage.

"You hold me without touch.
You keep me without chains.
I never wanted anything so much than to drown in your love
And not feel your rain...

Set me free, leave me be.
I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity.
Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be.
But you're on to me and all over me."

She sings so amazingly, as I'm now onstage just staring at her and she is so beautiful.

"I live here on my knees as I try to make you see
That you're everything I think I need here on the ground"

I sing never taking my eyes of her

"But you're neither friend nor foe, though I can't seem to let you go.
The one thing that I still know is that you're keeping me down"

she sings now looking at me as well.

"Set me free, leave me be." I sing

"I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity."

We sing are voices harmonizing perfectly together

"Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be.
But you're on to me and all over me."

I sing to her

"Something always brings me back to you, it never takes too long"

We sing ending the song as a tear rolls down her cheek. I grab her hand and pull her closer to wipe away her tear. This is our song. We both smile along, as everyone claps.

We walk off stage and I try to make conversation. "You look beautiful tonight" I say looking over at her. She blushes

"Look, I know your upset and I'm sorry, But I'm not sorry about coming here that first night I ever saw you, because if I didn't come here that night, I wouldn't have fallen for you like I did" I admit breaking the silence, she smiles.

"Its okay" she quietly responds still blushing.

"Do want me to walk you home?" I ask "Sure, I'm going to go talk to Mona first, I'll be back" she says letting go of my hand and walking away.

I just watch her talk, smile, and laugh. God I love her laugh. "So what's going on with you two?" Ben asks interrupting my thoughts.

"Honestly, I don't know, I really like her" I admit, "Okay, I've know Becca since she was born, I consider her my family and she isn't an easy one" he says with a chuckle

"My point is, be careful with her, she is so broken inside and I don't think she can take another heartbreak" he warns. Another? "Okay sir" I say. He pats me on the shoulder before leaving. Another?
