In the middle of nowhere

Chapter 4 ✔️

P.o.v. Peter ^

These last few days have been amazing. Sophia is such a nice girl. She's sweet and different then most girls.

My phone rang. It's my mother. "Mom" I sighed deeply. "Oh god Shawn! Are you okay? Are you almost here?" she asked. "No and I'm fine." I answered. "You should have been here by now" she answered. "Yeah I know. I'm trying." I explained. "Do you know when you are here? Where are you actually?" she asked. "No I don't know when I will be back, there is a snowstorm. I'm at Sophia's place. She is a lovely girl mom, no worries." I respondend. "Did you tell her who you are?" she asked carefully. "No of course I didn't tell her who I am." I said. "So she has no clue?" she asked again. "No I don't think so." I sighed. "Okay Shawn, be careful. Love you." she said. "Okay bye mom. Love you too" I responded.

Okay I know what you are all thinking. Who is this Shawn dude? Well uh, let's say that's me. I haven't been completely honest with Sophia. I really feel guilty because I like her a lot but I just don't know how to tell her.

I sighed deeply and stood up. I walked towards the hallway when I saw Sophia standing there. She was thinking deeply about something. Did she hear me?

"Oh hi Sophia" I said nervously. She looked in my eyes. She has deep blue eyes and I feel like I could drown in them. "What's wrong?" I asked. She shook her head and said "nothing". Okay there was definitely something going on.

She turned around and walked away. "Are you sure?" I asked concerned. "I'm positive" she answered. I didn't want to push her so I kept my mouth. 

What if she heard what I said? Would she be angry that I lied? Will I ever see her again?

I didn't want to think about that. I just wanted to enjoy the time that we still have together.

"So uh, when are you leaving?" Sophia asked. I was surprised. Did she want me to leave?. "The snow is melting so I'll be out of here in a few days, I guess." I whispered. She just nodded, took a glass of water and went to the living.

She was definitely acting weird. Maybe I should tell her? Okay screw it! I need to tell her.

I walked towards the living room. I was nervous. My hands were sweating and I cleared my throat.

I walked through the door when I saw Sophia and Jodie sitting together. "She's a sweetheart" I said. "Yes, she is" she responded simply.

"So uh, what are we going to do?" she asked. I shrugged my shoulders. "I should probably take a shower" I responded. She looked at me and nodded. I turned around and walked away.

Okay this wasn't going really well. Oh god, how am I going to tell her. "Hi Sophia, I'm Shawn. Well yeah you know as in Shawn Peter Raul Mendes? I'm pretty famous but I lied to you about my name because I didn't trust you?" I whispered. I face palmed myself.

I turned on the shower and sighed deeply. Whatever I try, there isn't going to be an easy way I guess.

When I was ready, I went downstairs. "Sophia? Sophia? I need to tell you something!" I yelled. No one answered. I looked outside the window and saw Jodie and Sophia playing with the snow. I smiled instantly. What does she do with me?

I walked outside. "You're going to regret that" I said when I saw Sophia throwing a snowball to Jodie. She turned around and looked confused. "Watch out" I tried. She turned around again but it was too late. Jodie jumped against her and they were both laying down in the snow.

I ran towards her and started to laugh. She raised one eyebrow. "Oh come on. This is funny" I tried. I couldn't stop laughing.

I was trying to be a gentleman so I held out my held. Instead of accepting it, she pushed me into the snow. She started laughing very loud. "I have to admit you were right. This is funny" she said laughing. Wow, she has a beautiful laugh.

"What?" she asked scared when I grinned. She was starting to get nervous, I could feel it. All of a sudden I started to tickle her. "Sto... STOPP HAHAH STOP, PLEASE!" she yelled loud.

She tried to stand up and run away as fast as she could but I just grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.

She looked at me. I looked at her lips. I was only a few inches away when Jodie barked. Sophia got really scared and yelled really loud. "I uh I'm sorry" she said awkwardly. She stood up and almost ran inside. Jodie followed her.

She opened the door and fell, again. She is a little bit clumsy. I laughed a little and then stood up to help her out.

When we were inside, Sophia turned on the radio to end the silence.

- The snowstorm has ended officially. In a few days the snow will be gone. We want to thank everyone for staying inside these days. There haven't been any serious accidents. We recommend you to drive carefully. It still can be a little slippery. We hope you'll all make it in time for the Christmas parties. We wish you a merry Christmas. -

I sighed loudly. Sophia looked at him and raised one eyebrow. I turned around and walked away. Does she realize what she does to me?

"What's wrong?" she asked. I looked at her. "I should leave in a few days" I answered. She nodded. "You'll still be there in time. No worries" she said with a smile. She punched me softly. "That's not it" I continued laughing. "I liked it here, in the middle of nowhere" I explained.

"I like you, Sophia" I whispered

Oh god did I really say this?
