Bad Reputation. ||Shawn Mendes ||

Worries

*Shawn's Pov*

Alex and I are laying in bed cuddling and I never want to let her go. I never want her to feel that way again.

"It's getting late, I should go home," Alex says trying to get up but I wrap my arms around her waist and I pull her back to me.

"No," I say, "Stay."

"My mom will be wondering where I am," Alex says trying to wiggle her way out of my arms," Shawn let go, I'm serious."

"Oh you're serious eh?" I say tickling her.

"Fine," I say giving up.

"Bye," she says just about to leave my room.

"Bye," I sigh giving her puppy dog eyes.

She walks out of my room and down the stairs. I quickly walk over to the window and I see her walking to her car. just before she gets in she looks up at my window and she spots me so I quickly hide. I hear her laughing which makes me smile. After she drives away I start to pack for my meeting in New York. When I'm done I sit on my bed and play Bad Reputation on my guitar. A few minuets later my phone rings and it's Alex. I answer the call.

"Shawn," Alex cries. What the hell happened?

"Alex what's wrong? Are you okay?" I ask really worried. I get no reply, "Where are you?"

There's a few seconds of silence then I here a quiet 'Home' in between sobs.

"Okay I'm on my way," I say before hanging up the phone.

I quickly put on my shoes before running down stairs. I tell my parents that I will be back soon and then I run out to my car. I drive as fast as I can to Alex's house. I pull up and she's standing on the path tears streaming down her face with her hands in her hair. I quickly get out of my Jeep and I run over and wrap my arms around her pulling her in tight and she rests her head on my chest. After a few minuets she stops crying.

"Do you want to come to mine?" I ask and she nods her head.

We drive back to mine and we go straight to my room. We lay down on my bed hugging. Every now and then she lets out a little whimper.

"My mom cheated on my dad that's why they got a divorce and they finalised it two weeks ago and my mom didn't even tell us," Alex says.

"Alex, I'm so sorry you don't deserve this," I say drawing circles on her back with my fingers.

We lay there in silence for a few minuets. I can feel every breath she takes and I can hear her heart beat. She looks so sad. Her cheeks are stained with tears.

"Why are your bags?" Alex asks spotting them in the corner.

"Oh I have a meeting in New York in two days," I reply.

"Oh," she says looking disappointed.

"I don't have to go if you need me," I say quickly.

"No, I'll be fine you should go," she smiles but I can tell it's not real.

"You still haven't told me how you got your scar," I say tracing the scar on her forehead with my finger.

"Well I have to have at least one secret," she smiles.

We lay in each others arms in silence until we fall asleep.
