Shawn's POV

Reception was amazing. There dance performances and then after that everyone was just on the dance floor dancing even though they didn't know how to dance. They were enjoying themselves thats all the matters. Half way through Alia noticed me and Aaliyah sitting on our table so she ran to us and takes our hand and drag us on the dace floor to dance with them.

By them I mean Alia, Parishi, Siya, Rishi and all their cousins. God her family was big. But all I could do is join them and I was lost in the thoughts of Alia. Like when she grabbed my hand I had butterflies, electricity was running through my body, Out of everything she looked gorgeous. I just wanted to kiss her and make her mine.

But i'll be leaving in March for tour and I can't do that to her. She deserves so much better than that but then also I can't see her with anybody else.

"Earth to Shawn" She said.

"Yeah. Sorry what's up?" I asked her snapping of my thoughts

"I said thank you for helping me a bit today i dont remember saying it back in the room" I understood what she was referring too.

"It was no big deal" I said rubbing the back of my head and blushing.

She then went to hug Siya goodbye. She had tears in her eyes. I was outside on a phone call that I got from my manager but after the call I went to hall again to get Aaliyah's phone that she forgot. She was too tired to get it so she and Parishi went back to their room. I saw Alia grabbing some stuff.

"Hey Do you need help?" I asked her making her wipe the tears off her face quickly but I saw.

"Hey, shawn what are still doing here?" She asked me

"Oh um Aaliyah forgot her phone so i came to grab it."

"I was just grabbing some stuff and cleaning up a bit." She said trying to hold her tears back.

"Alia the hotel people are suppose to clean all this why are you doing this?" I asked

"Because i have nothing else to distract me. Okay. She is gone to her new home. She wont be living with us anymore. Its not gonna be the same without her. She was one person that i could share everything with and now----" She said balling her eyes out. I cut her off by pulling her into a hug.
I could tell she has had drinks but she wasn't drunk

We walk to our room. She walked into her room and I walked into mine. Few minutes later there was knock on the door which connected my and Alia's room.

"Hey Alia!!!" I keep looking at her, she looks beautiful even without makeup and her hair up in a messy bun.
"Hey do you mind if I crash in your room tonight, Aaliyah and Parishi have taken all the space on out bed."
"Yeah sure" I said moving a little bit so she could come in. She started to walk over to couch.
"Alia, I'll take the couch you can sleep on the bed." I say.

"No Shawn it's really okay. Our couch was covered with our clothes and I dont want to trouble you." She said smiling

"Alia, its no problem at all." Before she could say anything I just jump on the couch making her go to the bed.
We were both laying down quitely neither of us could sleep

"Alia?"

"Yes Shawn?"

"Are you asleep?"

"No." She replies and I sit up
"I can't sleep either.Do you want to watch a movie?"

"I would too" She replied.

I take my laptop and sit beside Alia
"You pick and I wont here no for an answer." I said

"Okay" She said smiling.

She puts on To all the boys I've loved before. She cuddled up to me. Half way through I try to ask Alia if she wanted to eat anything but I got no response and I looked towards her to find her sleeping peacefully. I didn't wanted to wake her up so just sat there thinking about Alia looking at her sleep trying not to be creepy but she looked like an angel. And I keep falling for her everytime I see her and thinking that I fall asleep.
