Falling- Shawn Mendes

Chapter seventeen

Alex's pov

I woke up and headed to the bathroom, once I turned on the light and saw how puffy my face was from crying my eyes out last night. I felt like a complete idiot trying to fight for a relationship that clearly had no meaning to the significant other. I got undressed and turned on the water and began to shower my regrets away.

Once I was done, after like an hour, I walked to my room and put on a oversized grey champion sweatshirt and black leggings tying my hair into a bun and I put on my all white slip on vans and grabbed Shawn's car keys and drove to his house.

I parked in his driveway and knocked on his door. "Yes?" A lady answered, I'm assuming his mom. "Hi, is Shawn here?" I asked "Shawn!" His mom called out and I see him come running down the stairs in his red plaid pajama pants and a plain black t-shirt and his messy hair, kinda hot.

"Hey." He smiled "You look pretty well for a guy who was-" "Shh." He said and I laughed. "Here's your car keys." I said handing them over to him. "Hey, do you want to go get a coffee or like something to drink?" He asked "Shawn, you don't have to-" "let me buy you a drink." He said and I sighed and nodded. "Alright, go start the car and I'll be out in five." He said handing me the keys again.

I sat in the passenger seat on my phone and I see Shawn running out in a grey Harvard sweater and jeans with white adidas shoes. His hair was still messy and still kind of hot. "Ready?" He asked and I nodded and he drove to a nearby cafe

We walked in and both ordered a hot decaf coffee and we sat down at a near by table waiting for the waitress to bring us our coffees.

Once they brought it to us, I added creamer and three packets of sugar while Shawn just added a packet of sugar. "Just like my father." I laughed and he looked at me confused while mixing his drink with a thin black straw. "Sorry?" He asked "Nothing, it's just that my father drinks his coffee like that." I said and he chuckled. "So how are you doing?" He asked referring to last night.

"I'm doing okay." I said taking a sip of my coffee and he rolled his eyes. Kind of hot. "You mean to tell me, that seeing your girlfriend-" "ex." I said "Ex girlfriend, who you expressed your love to, seeing her flirt with other people, and you're okay?" He said "I'm not okay. But I will be." I said "so... are we going to talk about the elephant in the room?"

"There's an elephant?" I said looking around the cafe and he laughed softly "come on, you know what I mean." He said and I sighed. "I'm sorry about that." I said referring to our kiss last night. "Don't be sorry. Kind of enjoyed it." He smirked and I rolled my eyes. "I feel bad. I was practically toying with your feelings. You didn't deserve that." "It's fine." "No, it's not. It's not fair to you." I said and he grabbed my hand "it's okay. You were just upset and angry. I get it." He said and I smiled softly. I took a sip of my coffee and leaned back in my seat. "Got to admit Mendes, that messy hair and that busted lip sure do make you look kind of hot." I said putting my cup down and he smirked "oh yeah?" He asked and I nodded and he licked his lips. Kind of hot as well.

We ended up leaving the cafe and he drove me home, it was kind of quiet. He parked in my drive way and we sat there. "Do you want to come in?" I asked "sure." He said and we went up to my room and he sat on my bed while I took off my shoes and taking my hair out of my bun and put them back in my closet where I keep all my shoes and we ended up watching a movie.

Forty five minutes into the movie my phone got a text notification "Shawn can you pass me my phone?" I asked not taking my eyes off the movie. "No." He said and I rolled my eyes and grabbed my phone and he snatched it from me. "Can you not?" I rolled my eyes and managed to snatch it back and he ended up grabbing it back.
