"I know I'm not the only one!" I sing as loud as I can while washing my hair in the shower. I was home by myself, which meant I could sing as loud as I wanted on the shower without Aaliyah yelling at me to shut up.

So I was singing Sam Smith in the shower. Casual. Sam Smith is actually the love of my life.

"You saaaaaaaaay I'm crazy!" I shout at the top of my lungs. It's not even singing anymore, it's basically screaming. "'Cause you don't think I know what you've done..."

"Shawn! Shut up!" My sister's voice makes me scream, dropping the soap with a loud noise. I thought she was at her piano lessons?!

I stand there in silence for a few moments, before... "BUT WHEN YOU CALL ME BABY, I KNOW I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE."

After my shower, I was in a pretty good mood. I texted Andrea.

Shawn: Can we facetime ?!

Shawn: pls

She didn't reply right away and I was impatiently bouncing my leg up and down.

Shawn: pleAse

Shawn: ANDREA PLS

Shawn: REPLY NOW

It's Saturday evening, and I was bored so I wanted to FaceTime her. But she wasn't texting me back.

She replied about thirty minutes later.

Andrea: sorry there was a family crisis

Shawn: Why?????????????? What happened?????????????

Andrea: that many question marks really necessary?

Shawn:Yes???????????????? ????????????????????????

Andrea: is you good

Shawn: Yeah can we hangout?

Andrea: uh yeah sure

Shawn: Ok when do you want me to come over?

Andrea: why are u automatically assuming you are coming to my house???

Shawn: Do you not want me to?

Andrea: well i wanna hangout but my siblings are really annoying and yeah

Shawn: so I'm gonna have to come pick you up? I BARELY HAVE ANY GAS.

Andrea: fine ugh just come over

I smile as get ready, realizing I'm still only in the towel wrapped around my waist. I put on some dark grey Nike sweatpants and a hoodie, not even bothering to touch my hair. I brush my teeth before going to let my sister know that I was leaving.

On my way to Andrea's, I jam to some more Sam Smith. When I get to her house I kinda just walk in. I didn't see a problem with it at the moment.

Her house was big, considering all of the people who lived in it. It wasn't that clean but it just looked like a full house I guess. Hey, I love that show. I have always thought DJ was gorgeous.

"Nash!" A little girl, I'm assuming it's Anna, screams when she sees me, looking frightened. Yeah, I probably should have knocked.

"What-? Who are you?" A boy about my age comes in and asks.

"Is Shawn here?" I hear Andrea's voice and suddenly she appears from the staircase. "Hey Shawn."

"Hello." I smile at her and she introduces me to her brother, Nash.

She then introduces me to Anna. She's a cute little girl, a bit shy. Next I meet a boy named Hayes. He seems pretty cool I guess. I am then entering the kitchen to meet Cameron Dallas, the boy who stole my girlfriend.

"Shawn, this is Cameron." Andrea introduces.

Cameron sticks his hand out. "Nice to meet you."

I fake a smile. "Ha, yeah. Bella is my ex-girlfriend."

The kitchen falls into a deep silence. Oh crap, I didn't mean to say that. Why did I say that?

"Oh. Uh-?"

"Yeah, we're gonna go upstairs." Andrea says awkwardly, grabbing my wrist and pulling me behind her. She doesn't bother introducing me to her two other sisters, who just stare at us as we walk upstairs.

"Now do you see why I didn't want you to come to my house?" She huffs, falling onto her bed. I fall down next to her, wrapping my arm around her. I didn't care if it was weird or whatever, I really wanted to cuddle.

"I like how your family is a bit crazy and loud. At my house it's so quiet most of the time, except when I'm singing my heart out in the shower."

She sighs. "I wish my house was quiet. The only time it's quiet is when I'm home alone."

"Well, if you ever need a quiet place to hangout at for a while, hit me up and you can come over." I tell her, shuffling closer to her so my body is pressed against hers.

She hums in response, closing her eyes. "You know, we aren't that much alike." she mumbles.

"Tell me about it." I laugh.

"You seem oddly happy today." she points out, looking at me.

"I am happy. I'm over Bella, and honestly I don't think I would be over her by now if I hadn't met you." I tell her truthfully and she doesn't say anything. She just runs her fingers through my hair as we lay there.

"So you're happy," she speaks, "and I'm sad."

I frown. "I can make you happy."

"I'd like to see you try." she laughs sadly. I move myself so I'm propped up on my elbow and I stare down at her. "You do make me happy, Shawn. But my sadness outweighs my happiness, which sucks."

"We can work on that." I say, holding her hand. "I don't want you being sad all the time."

I lean down, my face getting closer and closer to hers. I don't kiss her, but I close my eyes and lay my forehead on hers. I don't think she'd like it if I kissed her.

"You deserve to be happy." I whisper. "You deserve all the happiness in the world."

We stay there for a few quiet moments, and then suddenly we are kissing. Her soft lips press against mine and she pulls me all the way towards her, my whole body pressed against her smaller one. It shocked me that she actually kissed me back, and she didn't push me away. Her kiss felt amazing, and I loved the feeling of her small hands gently grazing along my jawline as I pull away.

"Shit." she mutters.

"What?" I ask.

"I fucking like you."
