April's POV
March 2, 2019
"Do you have to go? I'm gonna miss you so much." Soft sobs abrupt from my cousin, sinking into my boyfriend's arms. "Why can't I have the whole album to myself? You gotta sing it to the whole world? Without me to see?" Stella sniffles as Shawn hands her a new guitar pic from his new tour that is starting in 4 days.
"I'm gonna miss your accent most. I'll see you in a few weeks. I promise." He softly says, wiping her tears. It has been hard for Stella to keep her bright smile on her face. The universe has wronged her many times in the last couple of months, none she deserves.
I hope she bounces back more confident and strong. I know she will. "Alright, you go change the world with your music. I can't believe this is the start of a new era.. so much will happen! Shawn, have an amazing time." Stella finishes as her and Shawn let go of each other's embrace.
"I will, Stella. I'll text you and Aaliyah my favorite part of the concert every night after the show is over. In that group message we have." Shawn laughs and looks up at me raising an eyebrow. "Oh, you're not in it, are you?" Shawn asks and I chuckle. "I didn't know you guys texted frequently."
"I gotta check up on my little sisters daily to make sure no asshole guy is breaking their hearts." Shawn nudges at Stella's arm and her eyes light up when Shawn called her family.
"I look forward to it." Stella smiles and looks up at me. "Alright kiddo, we outtie. Go back to campus and get good grades and dress nice, party hard.. weekends only. And call me if you ever need me, I love you." I hug my little cousin tightly and kiss the top of her head.
We may be only a few years apart and Stella's a very mature independent individual but I still feel the need to protect her. I was once in her shoes, lost, with a bad reputation and my lingering thoughts. I feel the need to help her as much as I can. She deserves happiness.
"I love you April." Stella's smile is as bright as the stars.. just like her name.

Traveling back to Canada from New York sometimes is very difficult with Shawn. We are always greeted with same crowd of fans from New York's terminal to Toronto's and sometimes I get intimidated by Shawn's fans. Most of them love me and ask for photos but sometimes it's hard to put up an act in front of them when I'm feeling off.
I don't know how Shawn does it all the time. Actually, I do. He's the sweetest, most passionate guy who radiates so much love and gratefulness towards his fans. As they do the same with him. I'm going to miss waking up to his soft brown curls covering his face and his warm protecting arms engulfing me whenever times get tough.
This is not the first time we will be separated because he's touring. But it is the first time we are together and in a committed relationship and he's touring. I know we will both be changing tremendously in the next months.
Growth is natural and I am ready.
"Hey, you ready for bed?" Shawn approaches me from behind and whispers in my ear, sending chills down my spine. "Yeah, just tidying up a bit." I softly reply, turning around to face him.
He nods and brings his wandering eyes to look directly into mine. "Whenever you're ready." Shawn lightly smirks and I couldn't help but blush. I grab his arm and gently kiss his lips. "I'm going to miss your lips." Shawn says pulling me in, right against my mouth before kissing me again and again.
I was swept off my feet, like usual.
