She looked at me angry and was about to throw a pillow at me until I surrendered. "Aaliyah, at least I knocked!"

Eventually she motioned her hands, letting me come in.

"So... I want to kind of say... sorry? I think that, well first off, I don't know why you hate me. Is it because I take to much of your brothers time? I'm starting to understand the feeling. We should, try enjoying each others company again. I like talking to you but you always snap at me, it was nice for once to actually hold conversations with you. But it's one sided, you may not like me but I like you."

That's when Shawn walked in, "You like my sister!"

"Whoahhhhh Taylor!" Aaliyah gasped.

"I MEANS AS A PERSON!" I startled. "I was telling her that we shouldn't fake our relationship just to make you or your mom happy but we should be real friends! Thats all, now can you please leave us to talk about it?" I snapped the ending a little harsher than I should of which made him smile and nod away.

"Deal." Aaliyah spoke as she came over and gave me a soft hug. I was confused at first but I completely understand now. "Thank you." I replied.

Now I'm friends with my boyfriends sister. She's going to have to accept me either way and deal the fuck with it because honestly, I don't see Shawn and I breaking up anytime soon. I love him too much, sadly, no matter what he is doing during these late hours when he isn't home.

I get back to the room with Shawn. My fingers get twitchy, like I don't know what to do with my hands. I keep wiping them on my pants nervously.

I'm just going to say it.

"Shawn where were you today?"

"Oh it's just a project. Don't worry about it babe. Nothing really. Relax. Love you okay. Sleep with me tonight." He pulled his blankets up and guided me with him.

Shawn tucked in the corners of the blanket from the other side while he lift it above our heads. I felt his body against mine as his head rested on my shoulders.

"I love you. Please don't worry about anything." He whispered as he pat my head. And oddly, as much I probably should, I trust him. Even though this is completely suspicious! I trust him.

"Night. Love you Shawn."
