We leave the song with one verse because Shawn had to go to Hailey's party.

"I know a girl. She's like a curse
We want each other, no one will break first
So many nights, trying to find someone new
They don't mean nothing compared to her, and I know" finishes Shawn and I am amazed by his voice.

I clap while my eyes are filled with tears. This song gives me a weird, nostalgic feeling.

"You should have sang with... Mila? Why are you crying?" he says leaving the guitar and hugs me.

I sit and stare at him for a while. He's so beautiful, even when tired. His hair is messy but his eyes are shining. From excitment and love for Hailey and his song for her.

How did I get myself in this position? How did I come to love him so much, when he is with someone else for so long? He never saw me as nothing else but his best friend. He said that I was the only one he wouldn't fall for. And that broke my heart. Because I, no matter how many years will I continue to hide my feelings, as I do for four years, am still in love with him. That's why I don't date. Why I don't find anyone else. Why I can't find anyone else.

I tried to forget him, tried to get into a relationship, but it didn't work out. This feeling just won't go away.

He's never hugged me like Hailey. Won't ever kiss me. I'll never be able to tell him I love him the way that Hailey does.

"It's nothing... I'm just touched." I say drying my eyes. The truth is that the song gave me a feeling... why can't he see it? Maybe I should stop working with him on this. It will break my heart even more if he's going to song it for her.

"You're so emotional Mila, that sometimes I think you'll explode" he says kissing my hair.

"Shawn it's almost ten. You should leave..."

"The party right. I should get ready. Come with me." he says hiving me his hand.

And to see him stuck on Hailey? I won't take it... I have already managed enough.

"No... I don't feel so good."

"What? You could have told me, if you want me I will cancel, I can get you a thermometer..." he rants and I smile.

"No no. Now Hailey really excited to meet. I'll be fine."

"Can you at least sleep here tonight? So when I come back I can take care of you?" he asks kissing my cheek.

I smile. He's so sweet with me.. in a very protective..brotherly way.

"Okay Chewy. I'll sleep here. Are you sure your mom won't mind?"

"MY mom loves you Mila. I don't want silly questions"

As he dresses, I lie on his bed. My mood sucks.

Aftee he petted my hair and suggests I wear one of his sweaters, he leaves leaving me alone in his room.

Without being able to control it, my eyes blur and soon I'm sobbing hugging Shawn's pillow.

I take a piece of paper from his drawer and with wimpers, I start writting whatever comes to mind, whole hours, until I fall asleep.

All these years

Your hair's grown a little longer
Your arms look a little stronger
Your eyes just as I remember
Your smile's just a little softer

And I, and I never prepared for a moment like that
Yeah, in a second It came all back, It all came back

'Cause after all these years
I still feel everything when you are near
And It was just a quick hello
And you had to go
And you probably will never know
You' re still the one I'm after all these years

Couldn't help but overhear you
Sounds like you're happy with her
But does she kiss you like I kissed you?

Ooh, I wish I loved you like I miss you

And I, and I never prepared for a moment like that
Yeah, in a second it all came back, It all came back

'Cause after all these years
I still feel everythinh when you are near
And it was just a quck hello
And you had to go
And you probably will never know
You're still the one I'm after all these years, oh

'Cause after all these years
I still feel everythinh when you are near
And it was just a quick hello
And you had to go
And you probably will never know
You're still the one I'm after allthese years

I never told you, I should have told you
I never told you after all these years
I never told you after all these years
