What If?

Chapter 5: So What Are We?

Cameron’s P.O.V

Everyone was heading downstairs when I turned around and seen that neither Abbie nor Shawn was behind us. “Hey guys where did Abbie and Shawn go?” I asked.

“They are probably doing it on Nash’s bed,” Taylor laughed.

“Dude! That’s not cool!” Nash said.

“I’m gonna go and see what’s keeping them,” I said.

“Okay but we’re not responsible for what you see!” Hayes yelled up the stairs.

I head back up to Nash’s room and open the door to see Shawn and Abbie making out on Nash’s bed. Abbie looks over and sees me and leaps off the bed as fast as she could while Shawn just sits there with a smirk on his face. I look at Abbie to see her cheeks a bright rosy color. “Hey Taylor you were right! They are doing it on Nash’s bed!” I yell downstairs with a laugh. That’s when Abbie’s face turn bright red and Shawn starts laughing uncontrollably.

“C-Cam! We were doing absolutely nothing!” Abbie said.

“So what we just did was nothing?” Shawn asked getting angry.

“Shawn, I’m sure that’s not what she meant,” I said trying to calm him down.

“Yeah I know what she meant,” Shawn mumbled storming out of the room. I looked over at Abbie and could already see the tears streaming down her face.

Abbie’s P.O.V

Shawn stormed out of the room and I could feel the tears stinging my eyes and running down my face. Cam rushed over next to me and hugged me. “Shhhh it’s okay. Don’t cry. He is just a little mad right now but he will get over it,” Cameron said trying to comfort me. By then the rest of the guys were in the room giving me concerned looks. All I could think about was Shawn and the look he gave me right before he stormed out.

“Does anyone know where Shawn lives?” I asked.

10 minutes later I was on Shawn’s porch. I told all the guys to wait in the car but Cam insisted on coming with me. Cameron can be so overprotective sometimes like an older brother but I like that I can look up to Cam and go to him when I have a problem.

Cameron knocks on the door and an older lady answers the door that I am assuming was Shawn’s mother. “Hey Mrs. Mendes,” Cam said.

“Hi Cameron! Come in!” she said. We walked in and she turned and looked at me.

“You must be Abbie,” she said.  

“Yeah, how did you know?” I asked.

“Oh darling! Shawn hasn’t stopped talking about you since you moved here!” Mrs. Mendes said. I felt my cheeks start to turn colors and I couldn’t stop smiling. “Shawn is upstairs if that’s who you are looking for, but I must warn you when he came home he seemed upset,” she said. I nodded and started to head upstairs and I turned around and seen Cam following me. I gave him a look and he understood and started heading back down the stairs.

I headed down a hallway and I was just about to text Cam and ask what room Shawn’s was when I heard singing. I seen a door that was cracked and I opened it all the way. Oh dear lord he was shirtless!! Shawn was sitting on his bed strumming his guitar and singing with that angelic voice of his.  I just stood there and listened to the lyrics:

“I want to go back, forget that it's over

Painted in black, when you left me alone

I never knew, she was sleeping next door

With the kid I grew up with, and I can't go back to her

Anymore, no more
You tell me you were happier with him, you want me to stay

And you tell me that you needed time but you push me away

But then you try to take me back, my heavy heart just breaks

No, I can't lift the weight
Put you in the past, try to forget you cause it's over

And every time you ask I'll pretend I'm okay

you're inside my head

In the middle of the night when I don't feel right

I dream I can hold you, and I can't go back to you anymore, yeah, yeah
You tell me you were happier with him, you want me to stay

And you tell me that you needed time but you push me away

But then you try to take me back, my heavy heart just breaks

But, I can't lift the weight, and I can't lift the weight
And I can't lift the weigh, no I can't life the weight

Yeah, you stand on my shoulders and my heart just breaks

And I can't lift the weigh, no I can't life the weight

Yeah, you stand on my shoulders and my heart just breaks

And I can't lift the weigh, no I can't life the weight

Yeah, you lower your standards and I raise the stakes

And I can't lift the weigh, no I can't life the weight

You tell me you were happier within but you want me to stay

And you tell me that you needed time but you, you push me away

But then you try to take it back, my heavy heart just breaks

But, I can't lift the weight, and I can't lift the weight

You tell me you were happier within, you want me to stay

You told me that you needed time but you, you push me away

And then you try to take me back, my heavy heart just breaks

Say someday you will change, but I don't wanna wait”

Shawn’s P.O.V

I finish singing and I look over at the doorway and see Abbie standing there. She walks in and sits next to me. I don’t say anything. I just stare straight in to her eyes and I place both hands on each side of her face and our lips touch. We both pull away and she looks up at me. “Shawn listen I’m-“ she starts but I cut her off by placing another kiss on her lips.

“Don’t. It’s my fault I over reacted. I didn’t let you explain,” I said. She smiles and stands and heads for the door. She turns around when she reaches the door.

“Are you coming or nah?” She asks raising an eyebrow at me. I chuckle and I grab my shirt and put it on and I follow her downstairs.

When we get downstairs all the guys are sitting in my living room and Abbie reaches over and grabs my hand. When we walk in everybody looks at us. “Well somebody’s in a better mood,” My mom says. Abbie giggles and smiles at me.

“So what exactly are you guys?” Nash asks. I look at Abbie and I am about to ask her when she speaks up and says,

“Shawn’s my boyfriend.” I look at the guys and smile and they all stand up and cheer. I can already tell that this is going to be one hell of a ride.

Hey guys! So I know I said I wasn’t going to update until the weekend but I finished my homework early and was able to write this chapter. Plus I probably won’t be home to update this weekend. If you have read the first chapter of my other fanfic, Falling for my Brother’s Bestfriend’s Brother (A Hayes Grier Fanfic), then I am probably going to try and update the second chapter tomorrow since I’m not going to be home. Thanks for reading bye! –Haley
