Faith Elizabeth
I woke up the next morning feeling the worst I had ever felt in a long time. I felt sick, dull and demotivated. I was glad that the next shoot for the video wasn't until a day away.
"Sweetheart you look sick" Mum said as I trudged downstairs.
"I don't feel too good" I sniffled.
"It's because you walked home in the rain. I understand why, but now you've got to face the consequence." She sighed.
"I don't even want to see them again Mum" I said and started to cry.
"Darling, what they said doesn't matter, don't give it a second thought." She smiled and I nodded. "But honey, guys like Shawn only date models and actresses, not a small town seventeen year old from England."
"Thank you Mother" i sighed and walked back up to my room.'What are you doing today? X'
I stared down at my phone in amazement. Why was he texting me? Why did he want to? I put my phone down and sat on my bed thinking about yesterday. I ran my hands through my hair and took a few deep breaths.
'Please don't ignore me X'
I read the text but ignored it. I decided I needed a shower. I wanted that feeling of just washing everything away.
As the hot water ran down my body I felt relaxed and calm.
I thought I heard my Mum tell my name a few times but I ignored it. It could wait. This was the only bit of me time I had given myself this whole week.
As I stopped the shower and wrapped myself in a towel I heard a noise coming from my room next door.
My heart started to race. Mum wasn't yelling anymore.
The worst scenarios went through my head. Was there a killer in my room? Oh fuck. I wasn't ready to die, or fight, in a towel."I am not ready to fucking die, shit" I said quietly to myself and grabbed a conditioner bottle from inside the shower, before wrapping the towel tight around my body.
Slowly I opened the bathroom door and as I did I heard shuffling.
"Fuck" I said and lifted my hand containing the bottle.
I walked out of the bathroom.
"Hey I-"
I screamed and threw the bottle at the source of the voice.
"Shit!" The voice said and my head snapped up and my eyes snapped open.
"Shawn! Oh I'm so sorry" I said as he held his head. "Wait, What the fuck are you doing in my room?!"
"I came to see you!"
"I'm naked!" I yelled and ran back into my bathroom.My heart was racing. I could see it beating underneath my skin. Quickly, I shoved my baggy white T-shirt and black short shorts back on, brushed my hair, did my eyebrows and applied mascara before walking back out into my room.
He sat on my bed still rubbing his head where there was now a red mark. I cleared my throat causing his head to snap up.
"I'm beyond embarrassed" I said sitting on my bed.
"Why did you throw a bottle at my head?" He asked and I cringed.
"I thought you were a murderer" I said and put my head in my hand.
"Wow."
"It's your fault. Why are you in my room, why are you here, What is going on?" I said and cuddled into a blanket.
"I had to come and see you,"
"You didn't have to" I said and rolled my eyes, not quite believing that Shawn Mendes was sat in my room.
"Faith?" I heard from down the hall.
"Yes?" I said as I stuck my head out of the doorway.
"I'm going out for a while. See you this evening" Mum said and I nodded. She winked before walking down the stairs.I walked back into my room and shut the door behind me.
"Anyways" I smiled sitting back down on the bed. " sorry for my outfit, I didn't expect you"
"I think I'm the one that should be apologetic" Shawn sighed and he moved closer to me, causing my heart rate to speed up again."About what happened yesterday, I couldn't sleep because of it, knowing that what I said hurt you. It fucked with my head. I knew that I had to come and talk to you."
"Shawn I don't need an explanation and I don't think I want to hear one" I said bringing my knees up to my chest.
"I have to explain. Please"
I nodded.
"I'm not going to lie and say I didn't say it because I did. But they weren't my words. Andrew said it to me after the kiss. He was worried about,"
"About you kissing and being seen with a younger girl that's not rich and famous or a model" I said trying to hide my disappointment in the blanket as he nodded.
"I don't necessarily agree with him" he said and I looked up slowly. "Look, I came here to say that I think we did have a moment yesterday, I just don't know what to do about it"
He said and I searched his eyes for a lie or truth.
"Shawn, we cant do anything about it. Your team don't want anything to happen and I don't want to ruin your image" I explained touching his upper arm lightly.
"You wouldn't ruin my image."
"They think I would."
"I don't. The more time I spend with you the more I realise that you're kind and sweet and a good person" he smiled.
"You've only known me for about four days" I smiled.
"I know. And already you've made me feel that way about you" he smiled.
"You've known me for four days,"
"Then let me get to know you." He smiled and I nodded.For the next hour we just talked. We talked about ourselves and asked all the questions we wanted.
By the end of it, we were sat side by side on my little bed.
"Don't you have anywhere to be?" I asked him.
"Why would I?"
"You seem like a busy man. I thought you'd have a party or something to do" I smiled but he shrugged.
"I don't. But even if I did I like being here with you" he smiled.
"I can't really believe this is happening and you're saying this. I'm just a small town girl. Nothing special"
"I'm not that special"
"Shut up Shawn" I laughed and shook my head.
"I'm a regular guy" he smiled.
"With a lot of talent" I smiled.
"Is it bad that I want to kiss you?" He said and I couldn't believe that this was now my life.
"Probably" I smiled.
"Can I?" He said and I couldn't say anything, all I could do was nod.He leaned over and cupped my face in his large hand. Our lips moved together and I felt my toes curl. I placed my hand on his waist lightly and smiled as we kissed.
He gently placed his hand on my leg and I held onto his lower arm.
Slowly we both pulled away, "Andrew will be pissed" I giggled and brushed some of his hair off his forehead.
"Andrew doesn't have to know"
