Camila was currently changing to meet her best friend Shawn in a nearby pizza place after the Grammy's after party. To say she was nervous was an understatement, at a time she used to be head over heels in love with the brunette boy maybe she still was but he never made a move and he'd told her how he wanted to be focused on his career, so she guessed that was her cue for her to move on. Moving on had never been easy but this time it was like walking on glass and burning coal. But at last she had somewhat succeeded in moving on, she had met a dating coach on one of the events and he asked her out and he was nice so she thought what's the harm.

Even though Matthew was about 10 years older than her, the age factor was never an issue for her. Since then she'd gone on multiple dates with him and they all went well. She had to admit though that they were not as fun but maybe that was a good thing that he was mature. She convinced herself that mature was what she needed.

She liked Matthew, but he was nothing compared to him. The problem was that nobody was him. No one could swoon her with a smile, no one could make her knees weak just by a wink, no one could kiss her like he did and sure no one could taste her like he did.

During the ikwydls era, they'd grown a little too close then they should have if it had ended to be just friends at the end. The funny thing though is that even if she had the opportunity she wouldn't change a thing. Those nights and days with him meant everything to her.

She composed herself together and walked to the place where she was supposed to meet him.

Camila got inside and saw Shawn already sitting in one of the tables.
When the bell of the diner dinged, Shawn looked up like he had been doing for the past half an hour whenever that bell dinged. He saw his tiny brunette and smiled immediately.
Wow, how mesmerizing she looked, even in those casual clothes and next to no makeup she still looked the most beautiful girl he's ever seen. He visibly gulped at the sight of her, how could she have such an effect on him he'll probably never know.

Shawn stood up and engulfed Camila in a tight hug. Camila immediately wrapped her tiny hands around him while Shawn smelled her hair and softly kissed it. They abruptly pulled away knowing this was a public place and rumours would fly way too soon in the industry.

They got seated not across but just next to each other.
"So, Canada wassup?" Camila asked.
"Everything's okay I guess. But forget about me your album is a fucking masterpiece Camila... literally I stream it on repeat it's beautiful." Shawn commented.

"Thank you so much Canada! I'm so glad to have someone like you who gives me honest opinion about my songs." She said resting her hand on his thigh and he beamed a smile at her.

"So..." Shawn asked. They knew the tension between them was growing thicker by the passing second and the last time this tension got a little too irresistible and they ended up having some mind blowing sex.

What the fuck Camila you're seeing someone, you can't do this anymore, Camila tried to convince herself, after all she was the one who decided she didn't wanted these nights which had no explanation, she wanted a stable relationship she told herself.

Camila knew she had to avoid this tension but this silence wasn't helping at all. So, she blurted the words out which she knew she ultimately had to.

"So, Shawn you know I'm seeing this guy...umm he's a dating coach." Camila said forcing a smile.

Shawn froze at her words..she was seeing someone he knew he should've said it but he was an idiot he didn't and now his only true love was with someone else.
How could it all have gone wrong he asked himself. He had it all planned, he would show her his song 'Why' which he had written for her then he'd confess her how he had been an ignorant asshole to not ask her to be his years ago, he'd tell her how much he loves and had loved her . How it has always been her. But all he could say to her was that he was happy for her.

"Wow, good for you! If you're happy then I'm happy." He said pulling her in a warm hug and gulping his emotions down.

That night Camila wished he would've been jealous that she was seeing someone that wasn't him, but like all the times he didn't say anything, she sighed and decided to sleep, but all she thought was about him and as if it wasn't enough like many times she dreamt of him, of them being together.

While Shawn got in the studio the next day and recorded the song that took him only minutes to write after the events of last night, "When you're ready" and he meant every word he wrote and sung. He'd chase her forever of needed to because he knew they belonged together.

A/N: So this is just my thinking of what happened between them according to their songs and interviews.
