Camila's POV

{present day}

"I guess I'll address the elephant in the room myself. So what's going on with you and Shawn?" Taylor asked me.

Me and Taylor hadn't seen each other for the longest time and she demanded to see me once she was in California.

I blushed at her enquiry and replied "Well. We are sort of dating now."

Taylor's eyes widened in shock and her mouth fell open. "Wait really? You aren't kidding right?"

"No." I answered with the most foolish grin on my face. Taylor started sqeauling. She extended her arms towards me and pulled me into a hug, giving me a tight squeeze.

"I'm so happy for you guys. Shawn finally had the guts to ask you out huh? I cannot believe this. Where was my memo by the way?"

Finally? What does she mean by that? Did he want to ask me out before? I mean technically he never asked me out, but what does that mean?

"Wait what do you mean finally?"
"Oh no. Didn't mean to spill any tea but I thought it was pretty obvious. Shawn has always had the fattest crush on you."

"That's not true." I reassured Taylor but it was more of a reassurance to myself than her.
"Well that doesn't matter anymore. I'm just so extremely happy for the two of you."

The rest of the night was spent talking about our future projects, new music, and basically everything else we have been up to for the time we were apart.

I left Taylor's at about 1 am and I didn't know why, but I really wanted to see Shawn.

Maybe I wanted to ask him if he really actually liked me before. Or will I just end up making a fool of myself? Either way I wanted to see my best friend.

C : hey I'm coming over rn

He didn't reply. He might be asleep, but I thought I'll go over anyway. After half an hour I finally reached Shawn's apartment. I knocked on the front door but there was no answer.

Is he not home? Stupid Camila. I shouldn't have come here without making sure he was home. Well maybe I'll just wait for him.

I pulled out Shawn's apartment keys from my purse, the spare ones he had handed me the very first day he brought me to see his apartment. I unlocked the door and noticed the only light filling his entire apartment was the light coming from his bedroom.

So he is home. Then why is he not answering the damn door?

"Shawn!" I shouted before opening the door and what I saw next, brought my blood to a boil and my heart shattered into a million pieces.

Shawn was on top of another girl, both of them naked.

Shawn quickly jumped off of her and got under the sheets as this other girl pulled the sheets up to her chest. I slammed the door and started leaving.

The tears were slowly making their way to my eyes.

I was angry and sad and hurt and it was an overwhelming amount of emotions.
