I'll Be On My Way

Shawn's POV

Camila was not doing well. She was sick with the flu and although I knew that it was common and treatable, I hated to see her in such discomfort.

In order to make her life somewhat easier, I made my way over to the drugstore to pick up some NyQuil and if I was being honest, I was struggling just to find the box. "Can I help you?" The voice was high pitched and it startled me, causing me to hit my head on one of the shelves that I was bent in front of.

"God...ow, hi. Sorry." I stood up, brushing off my pants, still in pain. "Ahh. There it is." I smiled, proud of myself for the quite easy task. Camila would be proud no matter how silly this was. Still looking down at the box, "No, I don't-" I responded, my eyes shifted towards the women and my head started to spin. "Holy shit...Riley?" I couldn't comprehend who was in front of me.

It's been awhile since I've last seen my ex girlfriend but lord knows that it didn't end well. I wasn't in love with her and I knew that she wasn't the one but my attempts to let her down slowly, failed. She was clingy towards me even after our breakup but I somehow lost contact with her, thank god.

"Hey...need help there?" She grazed her hand on my bicep, causing me to jump and swat her hand away. "No. I'm okay. You should...get back to work." What are the odds that I'd run into my ex. "Jesus...you've gotten hotter, I see." She winked at me but soon furrowed her brows when she saw my very unhappy expression. "Yeah...look, I got to go."

She was harmless and I only knew that because she still knows where I live, unfortunately yet she hasn't shown up and I'm not complaining. "Wait!" She called out and I know I should've kept on walking but I turned on my heel to face her. It probably wasn't a good idea but I didn't need her getting angry and following me around some more.

"Maybe...maybe we could see each other again. Like old times." She bashed her eyelashes at me and the only thing that kept me from answering was the text I received from Camila.

I knew that Riley saw the huge smile plastered on my face as I looked down.

Camila
I miss you, baby. Come home:( I need a cuddle, it's cold.

I laughed at this because we were in Miami and it wasn't cold at all and neither was the house because she kept complaining about the thermostat. Although, her attempts to make me come home faster were working. Before finding the medicine, I picked up some of her favourite treats and lunch to make her feel better. Also because I love her and she deserved the world.

Shawn
I'm coming home now. I love you.

Camila
I love you too.

"Shawn!"

Shit. Completely forgot that she was there.

"Look...Riley. I have a fiancé and I'm in love. I have no interest in you or for anyone for that matter besides her. I'm sorry." It felt amazing to have those words fall from my tongue. It was so natural to call Camila my fiancé and god knows how it feels to call her my wife. All I knew was that I was in deep with this love and I'd never give it up. I'd never jeopardize that.

She grimaced at me, "the one you post on Instagram? That's..." she rolled her eyes, "...her?" I wanted to punch her right then and there but I'd never hit a women and that would just be me being dramatic. "Her name is Camila and speaking of her, I have to get back to my fiancé so if you'll excuse me." He walked passed her, "I'll be on my way."
