DREAM KINGS (Shawn Mendes x Harry Styles)

C h a p t e r [155]

I didn't ask more question. He holds my hand again then walked, acting as if he knows the way.

"Seems like you already know the way?"

"Kinda. I remember."

"Okay then, lead the way." I chuckle, "I remember that video Tippy showed me."

"What video?"

"It's just a funny looking knuckles—"

"Knuckles? The bones—?"

"No no, knuckles from Sonic, the blue hedgehog?"

"Oh, the red one and his knuckles has pointy knuckles?"

"Yes!" I burst a laugh, "That's kinda funny. Knuckles with pointy knuckles."

"Yeah," he laughs back, "What did you remember about it?"

"Nothing, it's just a silly video of players, and they're all like 'Do you kno da wei?'"

He shakes his head with a soft giggle, "Don't worry, I kno da wei."

We walk and passed places that were familiar to the both of us. He's not lying, he does know which way to take, even though I gave him a tour around only once. And it was years ago.

"I think we should just walk normally.."

"Isn't this normal?"

"No."

"I don't see anything wrong."

"But many people does, specially that you're now a famous artist."

"We're just holding hands, what's wrong with that?"

"Many things. In lots and different perspectives.. this could spark an issue, you know?"

He sighs, "Alright, but only I'll let go when they start to pull out their phones."

"How will you know?"

"I'll see it with my eyes."

"I know you're gonna use your eyes Shawn, what I mean is how are you going to stop them? What if they've already snapped a photo before you even know it?"

"I currently see only 4 people walking and a few cars passing, that's not too hard to tell."

"You're not psychic, you don't know."

"What if I am but I just keep it as a secret?"

"Ooooohhhhhh, spooky."

He snickers, "I like that. Oooooohhhhh spoooooooky."

"Me too."

Unexpectedly, synchronized, we both said the same thing once again, "OOOOOOHHH SPOOKY." And ended up laughing, soon, we both got tired of it and stopped.

"But seriously though Shawn.. I meant that."

"Don't worry about it too much."

"How? It will affect your career, everything you've worked hard for."

"You don't know that Love.."

"Well, I know you know that before you even became the Shawn Mendes today, the famous singer from Canada, you're already wide known because of your father and his wealth; and you, being the genius of this generation, showed everyone how talented you are. Saying you're sick of people coming to you made it even worse by revealing to the world that you can play a guitar and sing."
