love triangle - t.h & s.m

Chapter ten

The kiss was amazing. The best kiss you've ever had, better than you could even imagine. It felt like birds were singing around you two, fireworks going off and your stomach was filled with butterflies, no your whole body was. Shawn was perfect in every single way. You loved him. He was everything you ever wanted in a guy. You could remember the first time you met Shawn in class;

"Is this seat taken?" A beautiful voice asked next to you. You quickly look up to see, probably, the most beautiful man you had ever seen. His hair was a curly mess, his honey brown eyes that you could so easily drown in. Holy god. He clearly worked out, a lot.

"This seat?" You stutter out to him pointing at the empty seat next to you.
You were confused why would he want to sit next to someone like you. Your eyes wandered around the almost empty classroom. Why did he want to sit next to you?

"Yeah? Or are you waiting for someone?" He asked you again. He leaned in a little bit closer so you could smell his cologne.

"Umm... no. I mean I'm not waiting for anyone." You finally speak out after a way too long silences between you two.

"Great!" He gave you the sweetest smile before sitting down next to you. "I'm Shawn." He suddenly tells you and offers out his hand. If you were being honest you knew who he was. School had just started but everyone knew him already. He was popular but all the stuff you had heard about him were just nice things. Every single girl in this school had a crush in him, you had even heard that he could sing, that he played hockey and was really good at it too.

"Y/N." You stutter out your own name to him. Why was he even talking to you?

"Yeah, I... um... I actually know that already!" Shawn confesses to you with an excited smile resting on his kissable lips.

"Really?" the words that leave your mouth are louder than you wanted it to be.

"Yeah. You're really smart... and nice." He tells you, making you blush of course. "I would really like to get to know you." He suddenly tells you. Never before had anyone come up to you and told you that they wanted to be your friend because you seemed nice. But that was the first of many days you spent with him and now couple years later he was your best friend, your rock and your everything or was he.

You quickly push Shawn of you. Looking at him not saying a word. He smiles at you like what you two just did was okay, normal. He was about to lean into another kiss but you push him away again.

"Shawn we can't..." you whisper to him. Even if you wanted to kiss him, maybe do something more with him but you couldn't. You were with Tom and you couldn't do that to him.

"Why not?" He sounds so confused.

"You're dating Hailey! And I'm dating Tom!" You raise your voice a little, because if you hadn't you would probably lean into another kiss.

"But didn't you feel what I felt?" He mumbles to you. Did he feel the butterflies, the fireworks and hear the birds like you did? No, no he couldn't. He was happy with Hailey, he just doesn't know what he is doing. He tried leaning in again.

"Shawn!" You yell out his name before getting up from the bed. "We can't be doing this! We're both seeing someone! I'm happy with Tom. Tom makes me happy!" He didn't move or say anything. He just sat there and looked at you, you can't even make sense of what he was thinking about. The silence was killing you.

"Say something!" You wanted it to sound strong... but it was the total opposite.

"y/n..." he only whispers out your name before getting up from the bed and taking two long steps to be right in front of you. His hands find you cheeks and he makes you look him into his beautiful eyes. You could feel his warm breath on your lips.
