"Aren't you going to answer that?" Lucas asks.
"Oh.... my phone was in my pocket? This whole time I thought I left over at my house" Shawn says.
To be honest Shawn isn't that bad of an actor. He is actually pretty good. I can totally tell he is lying, but Lucas won't be able to tell.
"Wait, I have a question" Lucas asks.
"What?" Shawn says in a very concerned voice.
"How did you tell him I didn't go?" Lucas asks. Shit, is he asking me? Oh.... my... god.... I told him, I told Shawn that he didn't go.
But how could I tell him without my fucking phone? Oh shit, "B?" Lucas asks.
"Uh.... I called him from your phone." I say. This is getting out of control. "You what?" Lucas asks.
"She called me. From your phone. She forgot her phone and she...." Shawn wanted to help me out, but this is just getting bad.
"OK" I say trying to think what to say next.
"I forgot my phone over at Shawn's." I say. Maybe the truth is better.
"YOU WHAT?" Lucas raises his voice And he looks over to from the front seat. Ok maybe not...
"Aaliyah had trouble with her boyfriend. And she asked me to come over. So I went over to talk to her, and I didn't go to Brittney, I fell asleep over at Shawn's house." I say.
I feel so bad now. I can't believe I used Aaliyah to get out of this. I'm a bad person.
"I'm sorry I lied to you, I didn't want you to think I— like Shawn... in any way other than friends. Because I don't" I completely lie to him. It's obvious I have feelings for Shawn.
"I'm sorry.." Shawn says. "I didn't want you to get mad or anything" He says.
"Ok, so we are now going to Shawn's house to get your phone?" Lucas asks.
"Yeah... after that we can go to eat somewhere or just hang..." Shawn says.
"You know what? I think we should go take B's phone and than me and B will take an Uber back home." Lucas says.
"What why?" I ask. I can't believe he just said that. I know we lied to him, we still are. But, Lucas.... come on.
Actually.... the more I'm thinking about it. Do I want to stay with Shawn any longer? I mean what happened today... can never happen again.
"I'm tired I want to go home" Lucas says. "Well I'm not tired. I'm staying" I say. Why did I say that? I truly have nothing to stay for.
Shawn? Right now I don't think I want to talk to him.
"Where are you staying?" Lucas asks. To be honest. I don't think I know where I'm staying. "Never mind. I'll come with you" I say.
The rest of the ride over to Shawn's house was very awkward. It was quiet and no one talked. Not very comfortable I have to say.
When we got to Shawn's house we all walked out of the car. "The Uber will be here in 5 minutes, go take your phone" Lucas says.
"Ok" I say and I walk inside with Shawn.
"I'm sorry" Shawn says as we walked to his room and no one could hear us.
I don't respond, I look over for my phone and I found it on the bed. So I just took it. "Wait" Shawn says blocking my way out.
"What?" I ask.
"You have nothing to say?"
"What happened today will never happen again" I say taking a deep breath.
"I think we should end Whatever is going on here" I say with tears. "No. No. No." Shawn says holding my face and kissing me.
"I can't do this anymore." I push him off me "This is crazy. Everything that happened today was crazy. Not just today, since you came back. My life just...... fell apart, We lied to Lucas. I used your sister to get out of this fucking situation we got cought up in today.... I don't want to ever go through something like that again. And if we can't be together in public... aka my brother knows we are together. I don't want to be with you. I don't want to be scared all the time. And terrified that my brother might know something.... I can't do this" I say crying. "So that's it?" He asks.
"I know we've been through a lot. On and off and on and off, and secretly dating, and not even dating... it was way too much for me, it was too complicated. And I don't want that anymore. I can't handle that any longer. Yes I have feeling for you. Of course I do. But I can't handle this shit anymore." I say.
Shawn is starting to cry. "Is that what you really want? Us to break up?" He asks. "Yes. I'm sorry Shawn, I just can't do it anymore. We are done." I say crying and walking out his room. I go to the bathroom and I wash my face.
I walk outside and I see Lucas already in the Uber. I walk in sit next to him and we start driving back home.
"Please, let's talk about this." Shawn texts me. "Tonight" another texts pops up on my screen.
"Is everything ok?" Lucas asks. "Yes. Everything is perfect" I say. And we keep driving.
