Fake Girlfriend //S.M.//

Chapter 40

Hi... I've rewritten this chapter three times (this being my third) in the span of less than 24 hours so let's see if this one pleases me or not😂

Lacey's POV
Rogers Place

Yesterday after our eleven hour bus ride to Edmonton we made it there around three in the afternoon. It's currently the next day and I'm hiding from Shawn in the Rogers Place. "Lacey?" I hear Alessia call out, walking by me. Aaliyah and I texted all day yesterday and she brought up prank wars... so my beginning prank is to act like 'I got lost in Edmonton and my phone died.'

I already texted him saying I don't know where I am so they're currently re-searching the Arena. I've been here for about an hour or two. "I can't believe you lost her Shawn! You have your meet and greet in about six hours! We have to get her ready!" Andrew yells to Shawn who is, I kid you not, right in front of where I'm hiding.

"Andrew, she likes to adventure, we've looked, she's probably out drinking coffee or maybe found some fans and is hanging out with them." Shawn explains, sitting down on the ground. He runs a hand through his hair nervously. "I can't find her, I checked every dressing room." Alessia says as she comes and stands next to Shawn.

"Try calling her again." Brian exclaims from down the hall. They are all standing right where I'm hiding. Where is that you ask? Well I'm under a pile of Shawn's guitars. He brings ALL of them so he can choose before a show. It's heavy but I'll live. "Wait, where haven't we checked?" Dave, the bassist asks look straight at the pile of guitars. "Oh my god, Lacey, please tell me you're in there?" Connor pleads as he lifts up a case to reveal my phone.

Why didn't I put it back in my pocket! God I'm stupid! "You're kidding me." Josiah says lifting up another one. That one reveals my legs. "Lacey! What the hell?" Shawn lifts up two more. "Well it worked for about two hours."I sigh out. "Please, never again." Mike laughs out, making Zubin laugh. The band then leaves to do final set up and sound check. "Lacey, why did you do that?" Andrew asks, a look of annoyance clear on his face.

"Aaliyah brought up the prank wars we did on the European leg of the tour and said this one would be a funny one to start it off with, even though it isn't the best." I explain as Shawn holds me from behind. "Aaliyah helped you with this!" Shawn has a look of mischief on his face. Oh boy... he's planning something. "Well next time at least warn someone." And Andrew walks away, catching up to Shawn's makeup and hair artists. "Just remember, you restarted this." Shawn smirks and walks away leaving me with Brian and Connor.

"This is going to be funny." Brian muses. "Well, will you guys help me with the next one? I just got an idea. And it'll involve you guys." They both look at me surprised. "I mean... depends on what it is." Connor crosses his arms and looks me in the eyes. These boys, I swear! I tell them, making sure Shawn isn't behind me.

"I'm in!" Brian and Connor blurt in unison before I can finish. "Okay, for now can I help you guys with anything while Shawn gets made all handsome for the show?" I ask, they nod and I follow them to the lighting and music. "Want to help work lighting with me for this show?" Brian gives me a quizzical look. "Sure!" I grin and follow him to show me everything.

Connor goes to film a bit.

As Brian is explaining lighting I see a door open and then two girls crawl across the floor whispering to each other. "Yeah. Um can you give me a second?" Brian nods and I run after where those girls were going but the opposite way.

Once I make it to Shawn's dressing room door I text Alessia to stay in there with him since I know that's where she is. That's when the girls come walking down the hallway. Standing ground I cross my arms. "Oh shit." One girl rolls her eyes and gives me a disgusted look. "Why'd you sneak in?" I provoke, I can tell they're upset. "Look I know you're just some fan who also snuck in to get to Shawn so if you could just move asi-" "wow you really do not know Shawn at all." I leer, leaning against the door.
