➳ Heartbroken | Shawn Mendes | Book 2 [Completed]

Ch. 7 ↝ "Change."

Shawn's Point Of View

She kissed back.

She kissed back.

Holy shit, she kissed back!

Hailey pulled back with a frightened look. She swam away and ran up to her hotel room, carrying her stuff with her.

"Hailey!"

I got up and ran after her. I saw her wet footsteps leading to the elevators. I turned and saw them closing, luckily with my long legs, I caught up before they closed. Hailey sighed.

"Hailey I-" I started.

"Let's just not talk about it," Hailey interrupted.

"But-"

"Shawn stop."

It was no use to keep talking. She didn't like me and I had to accept that. We were both silent, looking at our feet.

"Was it a mistake?" I asked.

She jumped a little, startled by my voice. Hailey cleared her throat before answering.

"Yes. It was a huge mistake," Hailey said. She continued to stare at her feet, ashamed of what she said.

"I wish I never did that."

Well, that hurts.

I decided to keep quiet until we arrived at our floor. The doors opened and Hailey ran out. I sighed and slowly walked to my hotel room. I unlocked the door, seeing the Jacks and Taylor watching a movie on the TV. I took a quick shower and changed into a new shirt and shorts. I sighed again and plopped on my bed. I pulled the sheets over my head and replayed the scene over again.

God, I was so stupid.

What was I thinking? Hailey and Corie are bestfriends and Hailey wouldn't want to hurt her by kissing me.

She kissed me back though, she must like me a little?

"Yes. It was a huge mistake. I wish I never did that."

I wanted to punch something, do something to let out my emotions.

"Shawn are you okay?" Jack asked. I pulled the covers off and saw they were all looking at me.

"Yeah, Shawn you're quiet," Gilinsky laughed. I shrugged and turned away. Taylor got up and punched me on the arm.

"Why did you just do that."

"Why are you sad?" Taylor asked.

"I kissed Hailey and she said she regretted it," I sighed. Taylor's mouth formed in a 'o' shape and the Jacks looked at each other with wide eyes.

"Well.. I know a way you can try to get Hailey to like you. I don't know about date.." Taylor said while typing on his phone. My head shot up and I scooted closer to him.

"What do you mean?" I asked eagerly. Taylor locked his phone and faced me.

"I remember one night we were playing 20 questions and I asked her who she liked. She said Sammy. I asked her why and she said she had a 'thing' for bad boys," Taylor said. I furrowed my eyebrows and I felt anger boiling up inside me.

Sammy? Why Sammy?

"That means what?" Gilinsky asked for further clarification.

"That means, Shawn the nerd, has to become Shawn the bad boy."
