They saw each other first on the train. And then in the same cafe, and then in the same meeting room. He disliked her loud music, she disliked his attitude. Their opinions will have to change when she's hired to work with him.
Rules will be broken...
Shawn Mendes I wasn't in my right mind. It was as if I had completely lost track of what was going on around me. It had almost felt too real, like all the cameras and crew weren't there. Like it was just us. And I didn't know how to comprehend that in my mind. I found myself thinking about how she was only seventeen. I mean a three year age gap isn't insane but it's a bit illegal that I'm over eighteen and she isn't.
But I couldn't get her out of my mind. This was just a girl we had hired like all the others we had hired to be in my videos. But her, I couldn't stop thinking about her and that was the difference between her and the others.
I had got dressed and helped pack things away before I realised how I had just walked away from her without saying anything. I walked back into my now empty room and didn't see her there. I went into the closet and she wasn't there either, nor was she in either bathroom. "Hey man have you seen," "She left about an hour ago" Tom said and I nodded. "You guys did good tonight. Almost seemed like it was getting real" he smiled before walking away. "Get some rest dude" he finished before walking out the door.
The house was silent. It was calm. But I wasn't. I checked the time and saw it was eleven. She wouldn't be asleep yet. But I argued with myself. Maybe it's best to just leave it. I pondered back and forth about whether to call her or not. I sighed and shook my head whilst picking up my phone. "Shawn?" "Hey. Can't sleep?" I asked her and I heard her sigh. "No. I've not actually tried, I'm watching tv with mum, but I don't feel tired" She said and I leant against the counter top she had previously sat on. "Me either. How are you feeling after tonight?" I asked. "I don't really know. I mean if it's not too weird to say, it felt quite good" she said and I couldn't help but smile. "I know what you mean. Can I see you?" I breathed out. "Now? Shawn it's eleven at night" she giggled. "I know but I really want to talk to you in person." I said running my hand through my hair. "Go" I heard in the background. "Just be sensible" I heard again and I felt my cheeks getting hotter. "Thanks mum. I'll let you know what's happening" Faith said and I smiled. "I'll come and get you" I said and quickly grabbed a hoodie before running out the house. "I'll meet you half way" she said before she hung up the call.
I walked quickly until I met her. "Hi" I said. "Hey" she smiled before tucking a piece of hair behind her ears and looking down.
"When's your birthday?" I asked as we stepped inside the house. "March the fourth. Why?" "As in a few days away? I start my tour a few days or about a week after. " I asked and she nodded. "I know. We're supposed to finish filming for the video either on my birthday or the day after" "And then what?" I asked as we walked into my living room and sat down on opposing couches. "And then, then I go home and you tour the world" she shrugged. "I think we actually leave on the same day that you do" she smiled and I nodded. "Anyways. You left tonight without saying goodbye" I said. "Yeah. You walked off and there were people everywhere so I decided I'd just get out of the way" she shrugged. "I can't really believe all this will be over before I know it" "We've still got about a week left" I said and walked over to sit beside her. "I know but still. It's frustrating to know that I'll be going back to a tiny town to finish school and my life will go back to basic. What's it like for you? A new place nearly every day"
"It's amazing. I get tired and stressed but the performances and crowds make it worth while. But I miss people. I miss my family and being at home" I said and she nodded. "It's great when one of my parents can join the tour but if they can't then I miss them, and my sister" "It must be an adventure though" she smiled and I agreed. "When are you in the U.K.?" She asked and I checked my phone. "From the 16th of April till the 20th" I said and she nodded. "I'll get you in to one." I said and I saw her roll her eyes. "They're all sold out" she said and I couldn't help but laugh. I quickly ran upstairs and grabbed a little envelope I had been keeping next to my bed. I ran back down to her and handed her the envelope. When she looked inside I watched her mouth open and her eyes get wide. "No way" "I said I would" I laughed and she placed the envelope on the floor before turning to me and wrapping her arms around my neck. "Thank you thank you thank you" She said and I hugged her back. "Now I can promise you that we'll see each other again" "You honestly don't know how much this means to me Shawn" she said into my neck and I rubbed her back gently. She pulled away and I saw this big smile on her face which made me smile. She put one of her hands on my cheek and kissed my other cheek. "Does Andrew know your eighteen in a few days?" I asked as she remained close to my face. "I don't think so. Why?" "No reason" I said and she moved her face away from mine. It would mean that an us wouldn't be such a bad idea or illegal to him.
