Book #1 in "The Tutor" trilogy. - "Helaina, you're failing physics." Mrs. Hernandez says to me. Suddenly, the whole world starts spinning. I grab onto her desk for support, trying to calm down the best I can, but it's useless. My entire world feels as though it's falling apart before my very eyes. "I don't understand how this is possible, I-" I stutter, trying to make sense of the situation. Mrs. Hernandez cuts me off, her eyes clearly showing sympathy towards me for the situation. "Don't worry, I know you've been trying your best to avoid this and get your grade up, so I've decided to ask the person with the highest grade in the class to tutor you for an hour or two after school every day until your grades get back up." she explains, and I instantly feel slightly better. I nod, beginning to catch my breath. "Thank you so much Mrs. Hernandez, I promise I'll work as hard as possible. You won't regret this." I say, and she nods. Just as I'm about to leave the door, I turn around and ask her, "If you don't mind me asking, who's my tutor going to be?" "Shawn Mendes." she says, and just like that, the room starts spinning again and the memories of Friday night come rushing back. - COMPLETED December 15, 2017 This book contains explicit material.

[Winner of The Fanfiction Award 2017 for Best Magcon/OGOC Fanfiction] Sadie Salvay, a girl who is never in trouble. A girl who was never asked on a date, knew a guy who liked her, or even had her first kiss. A girl who never had music in her life. At least, that was until she heard a single song, and everything changed. Sadie never understood how other girls could be so crazy over bands and celebrities. She thought that these girls were silly, and that all celebrities were fake and had egos bigger than the planet. However, that was only until she laid her eyes on Shawn Mendes for the very first time while watching a videoclip, and then she couldn't take him off her mind, or pass a day without listening to his songs. They made her feel better, feel happier. She believed on the guy she saw on the screen of her phone, but a bugging doubt was still on the back of her mind: is this all real? Is he exactly who he makes me believe he is? Or did media manipulate me in a way that makes me believe that Shawn is who I think he is? And from that moment onwards, she knew that she had to meet him or at least see him live, no matter what. After a long wait, that moment has come. She was certain that this would be one of the best days of her life. However, she didn't know that it was going to be so much more than that. It was just the beginning of a whole new chapter in her life. Though will the changes after that day be for the better, or the worse?

"Would you please have mercy on me? I'm a puppet on your string...." ••• I had to be smart and really think about it, "We break up after eight months, nothing longer. Everything is for show and when we're not in public nothing happens. You have your life and I'll have mine." He nodded, "There's a couple of things I have as well. You'll be living with me, don't worry we'll have separate rooms. When in public don't talk unless spoken to. You don't try anything funny in public, I'm allowed to bring any girl I want home. And you are not to develop feelings for me." He smirked at the last part. I rolled my eyes at how full of himself he is, "Don't worry I'll restrain myself." He chuckled, "Great so do we have a deal?" He asked extending his hand out to me. ••• Started 8.20.16 || Finished 4.24.17
