Last night me and Shawn stayed up playing monopoly. He would get excited when he got to move his game piece. I love seeing him happy, it makes me happy too.

I'm about to get ready to get ready to go to dinner, with Jace. I'm really excited, I like hanging out with Jace. He's a nice guy and funny. Plus seeing him dance is hilarious.

"Hey, I was thinking tonight we could play twister." I hear Shawn say. I look to my left and Shawn is laying down on my bed next to me. His head was by the end of the bed and his feet were on my wall.

"You wish." I smirk. "Plus, I have plans tonight." I shrug trying to not make it a big deal.

"What type of plans?" Shawn asks, sitting up.

"I have a date with..." I pause. "Jace." I get off my bed and go to my closet. I really have no idea what I'm going to wear. I want to impress Jace tonight.

"Oh." I hear Shawn whisper under his breathe. "Can I pick out your outfit?" I chuckle at Shawn's question. There's no way I'd look good if he picks my outfit.

I laugh. "I don't think so, you've been locked up in here for three years. You don't know the style." I say jokingly.

"Come on, I don't think it's changed that much. Plus you can tell me no, or yes, if u like it."

I think for a second. "Fine." What's the worst that could happen? "But I have to look good!"

"Trust me you will." Shawn appears in my closet looking around.

"Do you want to wear, shorts, jeans, or a skirt." Shawn asks.

"Um, shorts."

"Okay." Shawn picks out some shorts from my drawer. "Now, a T-Shirts, blouse, or tank top?" Before I could say anything Shawn stopped me. "Wait! Don't answer that I have a idea."

"Oh god." I'm honestly scared of what he's going to do. At least I can say no.

When Shawn comes back he has, light denim shorts, with rips at the bottom, a white v-neck tank top, and a floral sweater.

"Okay this could actually work." I say biting my lip. Shawn was smiling.

"I know! I'm good!" He gives me a confident smirk while winking at me.

"Your so dumb." I giggle, playfully pushing him away.

"Go put them on." He requests. I grab the clothes and go to the bathroom.

///SHAWN'S POV///

I know she's about to go on a date with Jace. You're probably wondering, what the hell am I doing helping her? Well if I can't have her, I just want her to be happy. I'm not going to be one of those guys who are like 'If I can't have you know one can.' Because that's extremely creepy.

Plus I thought it would be fun picking out her outfit. I never get to pick out my outfit since I wear the same thing everyday.

///GRACIE'S POV///

Before I go back to my room I put my hair in a fish tail braid. I also but on some concealer and mascara. I can't go anywhere without my mascara.

I open the door to my room and Shawn was on my computer. Shawns eyes widen as I enter the room. "What, is it that bad?" I ask him.

"What? No, no! You look really, r-really good!" He stands up and walks over to me. "You look amazing."

"Thank you." I'm pretty sure my cheeks were like tomato red. I was blushing so hard I could feel them get hot.

"When is he going to be here?" Shawn asks.

"Um, five or ten minutes, I should probably text him." I go to my phone that was charging on my nightstand and text Jace.

To Jace:
"Hey, I'm ready when you are."

"Where is he taking you?" Shawn comes over to me again and we both sit on my bed.

"I don't know, I think a restaurant." I shrug my shoulders and fall back on my bed. I let out a long breathe and I could hear Shawn chuckle at me.

"Are you okay?" He asks.

"Yeah I'm fine, just a bit tired we stayed up for to long last night."

"You stayed up to late, I can't sleep." He smirks.

"Do you miss it, sleep?"

He falls back on my bed too. "I miss dreaming." He sighs. "I never had bad dreams, I used to dream about meeting Emma Watson, being a wizard, family vacations, singing on stage."

I smile. "Is that what you wanted to do?" He looks at me with a confused look. "Sing." I say.

"Oh, yeah, I had a lot of followers on vine and I would make cover videos on YouTube. I miss playing the guitar. That's how I would get my emotions out."

"I didn't know you could sing." I turn on my side facing him.

He laughs. "Yeah, nothing ever happened though. I got offered to go on tour with some YouTubers, but my parents said school was first."

"Why didn't you tell me this?"

"I don't know, it was a long time ago, I was just 15 or 16. That was like, 5 years ago." I sigh and turn back onto my back. "What?" Shawn asks, chuckling.

"Nothing I just forget you're older than me. When I look at you I see a 17 year old boy. But really you're 21."

"Yeah I forget that too." I hear another chuckle for Shawn.

Then my phone goes off. I sit up and look at the notification.

From Jace:
"Going to my car."
To Jace:
"Okay, on my way."

I look back at Shawn. "I have to go." Shawn gives me a half smile and nods. I grab my phone and tiny black backpack. "Thanks for the outfit." I say shutting the door to my room.
