11:11 (A Shawn Mendes Fanfiction)

Chapter 6

I awoke to my phone playing the song Fun by Troye Sivan. 6:30am, time for the usual morning drag. Thankfully I didn't have to take a shower because I did last night. I threw on light washed, high waisted jean shorts, a cropped black sweater, and black converse. I left my face makeupless and took out my braids, allowing perfect wavy strands to fall down my back. Once I was ready I said goodbye to my mom and Patrick and got in my car. Before I left, I texted Shawn.

Me:

on my way

Shawn:

ok so you'll be here in 2.67 seconds?

I laughed at the text as I pulled into his driveway. He hopped in my car wearing dark jeans and a quarter zip sweatshirt.

"Are you excited for tonight?" He asked flashing me a smile. Shoot I almost forgot we had a date tonight. Woah that sounds so weird to say.

"Yeah, I can't wait" I replied, hoping I didn't sound too excited. "Where are we going?" I continued.

"I think it should be a surprise" He said as I watched him smirk out of the corner of my eye.

"Just wear something nice and I'll pick you up at 7" He said in a nonchalant tone.

"What if I want to wear sweatpants and a tshirt?" I said sarcastically.

"You can wear anything you want and I'd still think you look beautiful". He laughed.

"You're on crack," I sassed back. We arrived at school right on time. We said our goodbyes and went our separate ways to first period. Talia and Sophie were sitting with me in English. After our vocab quiz we had time to talk to each other.

"What are we doing tonight guys?" Sophie asked us.

"Jackson said we could all go to his house tonight if we want to." Talia replied.

"Omg! Yeah and Nicki, you can bring Shawn!" Sophie suggested.

"Yes! Do it!" Talia added.

"Haha sorry guys I would love to and I bet Shawn would love too as well, but he's taking me to dinner". I told them, I couldn't help but smiling.

"AWHH" They said simultaneously.

"That's so cute! You so like him!" Sophie yelled, a little too loud because half the class had turned around to see why she yelled. Sophie's face and mine went red as we started laughing.

"Guys I don't like him and he doesn't like me, we're just friends" I defended.

"I'm calling BS on that. You smile every time someone mentions his name." Talia whispered. I knew what she was saying was true, yet I still felt the need to deny it because what if he doesn't like me back? Ugh I hate feelings. The rest of the class was spent explaining my outfit for tonight and passing the little information I had about the date to them.

Second and third period passed with Shawn, who would still tell me nothing about what his plans were for tonight, not even what color shirt he would be wearing. My mind wandered to all of the places he could possibly take me, but I was unsuccessful in thinking of any locations. The day couldn't be going by any slower. In biology our teacher announced that our partner projects would be due Monday. I was already stressing about out my heavy workload, my dance practice and my date all this weekend. I caught Shawn looking at me from across the science room and I smiled. He came over to my desk at the end of class "Hey, we can work on our project at my house this weekend since we always go to yours". He was staring straight into my eyes while leaning on my desk. I looked up at him and replied "Ok sounds good. We have to get a good grade on this."
