Love for Rent

20

He was waiting there sitting in the grass. The same place I was sitting back then.
"Hey", I said as he stood up.
He gave me a quick kiss.
"Hi... uhm, How are you?", he asked.
"Oh, I... I feel really good thank you haha. What do you want to tell me?"
"Tell you?"
"Shawn you brought me here to tell me something", I said chuckling. "Oh, sorry, I'm nervous.", he said, "Celine, we know each other now for a long time and love each other. We are in a relationship since nearly 2 and a half years now and I want to make sure that there will be more years of us as a couple. I want you to be with me all the time. I want to wake up with you and go to bed with you. I want to watch movies with you and also the scary ones to feel your hugs when you are scared. I want to cry out of happiness with you and want to get older with you. I want to grow up with you and watch out children growing up too."
"Shawn..."
"Shh... please let me finish", he said kneling down.
"Celine, will you marry me? Do you want to be my wife and my partner forever?", he asked me leaving me in shock. I didn't know what to say.
We were standing there for like two minutes. He was waiting for his answer and I didn't know what to answer.
I just thought about the deal. Could I marry him? But he would immediately get divorced if Andrew would tell him.
"Celine?", he asked touching my arm.
"Shawn. I love you more than anything. You showed me the great sides of life, helped me out of my smoking problem and went through all the dark times of my life with me. So..."
"So...?"
"I would feel honoured to be your wife, Shawn. Yes! Of course I want to marry you!", I almost screamed
He stood up and hugged me tightly and lifted me up in the air.
Then he left me down and gave me the ring. It had a big diamond on it.
"Oh my god, Shawn. You didn't have to buy me such a ring... I mean... it must've been expensive as hell!"
"The best for the best", he said kissing my cheek.
-1 Month later-
-wedding day-
My fear and nervousness grew more and more during the month before the wedding. Now the day of my fears came. It was our wedding day.
I had my dress on and tried to tie my hair up to a top knot.
Someone knocked on the door.
"Come in!"
"Celine", he said.
"Andrew...", I said being annoyed, "why now?"
"You need to tell him. You need to end all of that."
"Why can't you just let us be happy. I mean, Shawn wrote 7 songs for his fourtg album now and he told me that I was his inspiration. So why don't you just forget about the deal, give me my house back and let my brother 'live' again?"
"Because you are an ordinary person. Shawn could've been in a relationship with Camila Cabello, Hailee Steinfeld, Dua Lipa and all the other celebrities. But he chose you. That's not good for the publicity. That's not enough attention.", he said shaking his head.
"HE LOVES ME AND I LOVE HIM! SO GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY ROOM OR OTHERWISE I'LL KILL YOU, ANDREW!", I yelled at him before he left the room.
I started crying and buried my head in my hands.
Cameron came in and placed his hands on my shoulders.
"Hey", he said, "everything's going to be okay"
I lifted up my head and looked into the mirror which was right in front of me.
"I look horrible", I told him.
He knelt down and wiped my tears away.
"better. Now get ready. Shawn's waiting for you. Don't think about the deal now. Just do what you want to do", he said making me smile.
I got my makeup on and went downstairs where Shawn was waiting for me.
"Finally", he said, "you look amazing"
"And you look handsome... Don't make me blush, Shawn", I said hitting his shoulder. He started to laugh.
"Take my hand", he said.
And I did.
We walked down and saw all the people waiting for us. They were applauding to us and smiling.
Then my fears grew again. I had to tell Shawn all of my secrets before it was too late.
