Here’s to the ones who dream
foolish as they may seem
here’s to the hearts that ache
here’s to the mess we make

" So, when do you guys move in?" Alessia asks as they have their makeup done.
" In a week." Camila says excitedly, trying not to move too much.
Closing her eyes, Camila starts to remember the rooms and details to what is about to be hers and Shawn's new house. It's a small two bedroom house close to Alessia and Brian, but she can definitely see them sharing their lives at that place.
" Look what I have here!" They hear Taylor's mother as she enter the small room they're in.
She places two light blue dresses for Alessia and Camila in a chair and then walks out to check on Taylor, after all that's her day. Taylor and Joe's wedding is happening in Shawn's parents hotel and Camila is in awe of how much effort her friend put into the decoration. The place looks magical surrounded by blue and white flowers everywhere, matching their dresses.
Alessia and Camila take a look on Taylor before walking down the aisle and almost ruin their makeups at the sight of their best friend. Taylor has a beautiful strapless long white dress with delicate needled flowers everywhere.
" You look perfect." Camila whispers taking Taylor's hand, trying to hold her tears.
" Soon this will be you." Taylor says analyzing a small simple ring on Camila's finger, something given by Shawn a few days after he asked her to marry him in the pool.
As Camila walks down the aisle with one of Joe's best friends, she spots Shawn sitting next to his parents in the second row with Charlotte in his arms. He looks at her with the most beautiful smile and she knows they're thinking the same thing, that one day she'll be the bride and he'll be at the altar waiting for her. The second Taylor enters the room with her father, Camila feels her eyes getting watery. Her best friend was getting married to the love of her life and she couldn't be happier for that.
" You look like an angel." She hears Shawn's voice from behind her once people start leaving for the reception.
" You don't look too bad yourself." She says looking how handsome he looks in black pants and a white dress shirt, holding Charlotte in his arms, who has a cute baby pink dress and flowers on her hair. " You should go if you don't want Taylor to kill you."
Shawn places Charlotte on the ground and Camila takes her hand before kissing him. They walk to where the reception is about to happen and Shawn makes his way to the small stage so he can play the songs Taylor asked him to. After taking some pictures, Taylor and Joe walk to the dance floor, all the guests already settled on their seats on the well decorated tables.
“You don't know, babe
When you hold me
And kiss me slowly
It's the sweetest thing
And it don't change
If I had it my way
You would know that you are…”
Camila watches when they start dancing together as Shawn’s voice fills the room, his eyes closed as his fingers move in the strings of his acoustic guitar.
“You're the coffee that I need in the morning
You're my sunshine in the rain when it's pouring
Won't you give yourself to me
Give it all, oh…”
She watches him singing, his voice like magic in her ears as he opens his eyes and looks directly at her. He might be singing the song for Taylor and Joe, but every word that comes out of his mouth is meant for her.
