Forever yours

Ch. 1 Fly Out

Shelbi's POV

"Shelbi did you finish packing yet!" My mom started to yell at me from down stairs "yes mom! I'll be ready to go in a minute!" You see today is my 16th birthday and for my present my mom bought me concert tickets to go see shawn in Seattle so my friend Jessica (I call her Jess) and I are flying out in an hour.

Don't get me wrong I'm super excited! Shawns been my role model for a long time now, I'm just nervous that he won't like me. Since it's my sweet 16 my mother also bought me a V.I.P pass to meet him.

I grabbed my suitcase and my purse and ran down the stairs "shelbi were gonna miss the plane!" I walked past her "well come on, I'm waiting on you now" she rolled her eyes and stuck out her "ha ha ha" she said that very dramatically but I laughed and threw my bag in the trunk. "Let's go get Jess" we hoped in the car and raced down to Jess's house.

Once we pulled up and honked, she ran out the door with her bag but she didn't look to excited, she crawled into the car "why are you in such a hurry?" She looked out the window "let's just go" a second later her dad was standing on her porch "get the fuck back in here Jessica! Your not done yet!"

I met Jessica a long time ago but I'm never allowed to go over to her house cause her dads pretty abusive. She has 5 sisters and she's in the middle of them.

"Mom go" she took off and put in her head phones so we could talk, I love my mom for always giving me privacy when she knew I needed it.

"Jess what happened?" She turned and I could see extra make up on her cheek "he hit you again didn't he? Your covering up a bruise" she shook her head "I don't want to talk about it, plus it's your BIRTHDAYYYYY" she always had a way to put people before her, no matter what. I smiled "I'm so excited to meet shawn! Eeeek at least you get the VIP pass!" I looked at the pas that was dangling from my neck. "yeah but Jess were gonna talk about what happened in there at some point okay?" She rolled her eyes "not now tho" I nodded.

We stayed silent after that and pulled up to the airport. My mom parked the car and helped me carry my bag as she walked us through security and all of that. "Okay hunny so you know your hotel and all that info and I want you to call me when you land" I nodded and gave her a hug.

"Flight 251 to Seattle now boarding" her eyes started to water, she always started to cry whenever I left, maybe she thinks something bad is gonna happen? I don't know but it's kinda annoying. "Bye mom, see you in a few days" she had some big meetings so she can't come with.

We walked on to the plane and put our bags in the storage compartments and took our seats. "ah finally we made it" I looked over at Jess and she still seemed worked up "Jess what happened?" She slumped down in her chair and looked at the back of the seat in front of her.

"Shelb u know your my best friend right?" I nodded "but there's just something's even best friends can't talk about" a tear rolled down her cheek "Jess maybe I can help" the plane started to roll out and we took off and started to pass the clouds "it's already been done"

...

We landed in Seattle and I decided to leave Jess alone for awhile. we hailed a Taxi and drove to our hotel "I'll go check us in mkay?" She nodded and I walked over "hi we have reservations under Jenkins" the lady typed in a few things and looked back to me "yes your in room 310, have a lovely stay" my mom must have payed online. she handed me the card keys and I nodded "come on jess" we walked down the hall way and into 310. it was a simple room with 2 queen size beds. Jess jumped onto one of the beds and sprawled out.

"Hey shelb?" I looked over at her "I'm sorry, today's suppose to be the best day of your life and I'm just being a slump" i sighed and plopped down next to her "it's okay, your going through a hard time and I'd way rather have you over a birthday" she sat up "oh my god your meeting shawn in less than an hour! We need to get you ready!"

I always admired the way at how she could just snap herself into what she wanted to be doing. "I'm probably gonna freak out when I meet him" she bolted for her suit case and ripped it open "Jess what are you doing?" She pulled out a bag with a bow on it "happy birthday!" She handed it to me "you really shouldn't have" she brushed it off "oh just open it and say thank you" I chuckled and ripped it open.

Inside was a green blouse I had been admiring for weeks in a store window and a pair of Jean shorts "oh my god jess, thank you!" I gave her a huge hug and she smiled "your welcome now go change! I want that to be the outfit my future brother in law sees my sister in" I laughed at her remark of me and shawn getting married.

The VIP session starts at 4 Pm, right now it's 3. I changed really quick "help me with my hair?" She nodded and grabbed her little hair kit. she curled the ends off it and styled it so my bangs overlapped "beautiful" she added some makeup and did a twirl when she was done "you look marvelous darling" I laughed and looked in the mirror, I do look a little better than I normally do.

"Okay girly you need to get to the convention center" my mom booked our hotel right across the street from it, oh shit my mom! I grabbed my phone and dialed her number.

"Shelbi? I told you too..." I cut her off "I'm sorry mom I know I was suppose to but it was a rush at the airport and we're just super excited" she sighed "okay we'll have fun sweetie love you" I smiled "love you too" then I hung up.

"Are you ready to meet him?" I shook my head "I'm gonna die before I get there" she laughed and started to push me out the door and threw my purse at me "I'll see you at our seats after the session"

"Jess, I can't move" she pushed me again "now go!" Then she slammed the door, here we go.

I crossed the street and entered the convention center. There was a man standing in front of a door, and on the door it said VIP access. I walked over to him "sorry little lady, you need to have the right card to pass" I showed him the card around my neck he scanned it with his remote and it glowed red "sorry hun, someone already checked in with that exact card number" I looked at my card "that can't be, my mom bought this card for me, today's my birthday" he shrugged "nothing I can do for yeah, sorry" I nodded and walked back outside, I'm not giving up that easily. I walked around the corner of the convention center to maybe find a back door. It turned into an alley way and I did find a door and walked over to it. "damn it's locked" a second later I heard some rustling going on. I turned around and I saw a man walking over. "hey cutie" he looked older but not as tall as many other guys, and definitely drunk.

"Sorry, I went the wrong way" I tried to walk around him cause that was the only way out but he put his arm out and stopped me "excuse me? I said hello"

"And I'm saying goodbye" he pushed me up to a wall and i hit my head on the cement and I felt the blood rushing around. "no your not" he pulled back on my hair and licked the side of my neck "I want to hear you scream" I bit down on my lip and tears started to roll down.

"I want to hear you scream!" He pushed me up harder on the wall "please don't..." He slapped me on my cheek then pushed me back up again "I said I wanted to hear..." he got ripped off of me and I slumped to the ground.

"What the hell!" I turned my head to see the man being held in a head lock by someone else? The sun was in my eyes I couldn't really tell. "how about you pick on someone your own size?" I knew that voice anywhere. It was shawn.

The guy got himself out of the headlock and backed up "sorry man, I was just messing around" and then he took off.

My head started to pound, I put my hand to hit and when I pulled it back there was blood on it "are you okay?" Shawn bent down, "hold on" he took off his shirt and put it on my forehead "can you hold it there? I'm gonna need both arms to carry you" I really wanted to start screaming or do something out rages but I kept my cool and nodded, I placed my hand to his shirt and he swooped me up quickly, his chest was so warm.

"Hold on okay?" I nodded again and his arms tightened around my body and he started to walk back into the building.
