fanfiction fangirl heartbreak love romance shawnmendes

13:06, 24th March 2014. 

That time will forever be ingrained into my mind. 

I feel lucky, but I carry a lot. I don't talk much about myself because it can never change the past. I think of myself as rather private and I like that. But life is hard for everyone, and you just have to get on with it. One day, your life might change forever... and that day might just be the best day of your life.

I look at my watch. It's 02:16, 17th March 2015. Another night of being unable to sleep. I overthink a lot, and knowing how close it was to being a year since I first met Shawn brought sadness to light. The past year had been tough but I'd repeat every single second of it to relive the amazing memories we shared.

He changed my life. He made me a better person. He helped me through the dark and rough times. I can't thank him enough. 

I loved him, and thinking back to the day we parted continued to break my heart into "a thousand pieces," or so they say.All Rights Reserved

Somewhere Between Us by wrizzy_verse

"Loving you is exhausting and hard. Give me a freaking break." he said. "Then why are you still here?", she whispered with a pale and trembling voice, holding back the tears that were willing to fall down her cheeks. Laura never wanted to fall in love with someone she couldn't touch - someone who only existed behind a screen, a voice borne by time zones and poor connections. But Evan made distance seem hazardous. He made every silence burn. "You could've stopped talking to me." she said to him once. "I tried," he said. "You just wouldn't leave my fucking head." Somewhere in between their late-night phone calls and the words they never spoke, something real started to take shape - delicate, wrong, and beautiful. But love such as theirs was going to shatter. It was constructed on waiting, on jealousy, on all the things they couldn't have. And maybe that's the cruelest kind of love - the kind that feels infinite, but ends the moment you wake up. Until Aiden walked in - the man who was real, present, and everything Evan couldn't be. Aman who had actually been beside her even when she broke his heart, even when she drifted away to chase someone who made her heart ache in ways she never imagined. "He doesn't deserve you. please wake up Lau." Aiden told her. "Then why does it still feel like he's the one?" she whispered. "You're crazy." Somewhere between what she wanted and what she needed, Laura lost control. Between time zones and heartbreak, between messages and memories, something between them had shattered. Because sometimes, love doesn't ask you to choose between two people - it asks you to choose which part of yourself you're willing to destroy.

My Crush On Him. by charmedbutsober

They say being with your crush is imagination, a fairytale that most of times would not come true. They say being with your crush is a dream that mostly wouldn't become reality. But what happens when maybe... just maybe it can become reality? In a world where Selena mostly has been hurt and been through hell can she have hope on her crush? Hope is what causes disappointment, hope is stronger than fear and everything else. Sometimes having hope can cause you a lot of pain. Her crush, Shawn is truly another thing he's dark and emotionless but at the same time so sweet and lovable. Can she make her life better after what she've been through? Would Shawn help her and fix her? •••••••••••••••• Warning/ The story contains sexual content and a lot of cursing plus it deals with depression and anxiety at some point.

An Unspoken Thing by kaitlynmariebrown

They say when you fall in love, there's no denying it. Falling in love is the most special thing in the world, because standing before you is the one you're meant to spend the rest of your life with. Once, I did believe that, with everything of my very being. It was incredible, undeniable as had once been said. Our wedding was so beautiful, touching some would say. I'd never seen a man cry before that day. Then things changed. I lost feeling as I became trapped, unable to pull from the web surrounding me. I would scream, yet nobody heard a thing. Cry, yet nothing changed. Fight, but I always lost. "Say you love me." I remember telling him. He would always say he did, then the beatings started again and I was back in a cycle of torment and pain. I had given up completely. Then one night, things changed. A miracle some would say, as the monster before me was no more. The car wreck had saved me. The memories and nightmares would still haunt me though. Overtime I tried to be happy, but his face, his hands, his spit, all the memories kept coming back. I never thought I'd be able to get away. I lost all belief in love and beauty. All I saw was destruction as I locked myself away from the pain waiting to creep back in. I spoke of this to nobody, and with that meant I stopped speaking all together. I shoved those who cared away, because I was scared. I'm still scared, but yet again, things changed.

THREE AUTUMNS WITHOUT YOU by Goldrosyy

I used to think I was living the life people only dream about. Everything looked perfect on the outside - the smiles, the success, the routine that gave me comfort. I had the freedom, the admiration, and the illusion of happiness. I truly believed that this was it - the life I had worked so hard to build, the one everyone else wished they had. But then he came into my world - unexpected and uninvited, like a storm that doesn't ask permission before it breaks everything in its path. He was unlike anyone I had ever met. A man cloaked in mystery, always quiet, always observing, like he carried the weight of a thousand secrets. People knew his name, admired him from a distance, but no one really knew him. And he liked it that way. He wasn't kind in the way the world expects. He wasn't soft or gentle. He didn't chase approval, and he didn't waste time pretending. His world was cold and guarded - his heart only opening for the few he truly cared about: his family, and the rare souls he dared to love. And yet, somehow, I was drawn to him. Not just to his mystery, but to the way he made me feel - like I was no longer the polished, perfect version of myself I had grown so used to pretending to be. Around him, the mask I wore for years slowly cracked. I started seeing pieces of myself I didn't know existed. He turned my world upside down. He didn't just make me feel - he made me question everything. Who I was. What I wanted. Who I was pretending to be. I became someone I no longer recognized - not the girl with the perfect life, but someone raw, confused, aching for something real. He didn't just enter my life. He changed it. He changed me.

Twisted by yasasweee13

I saw something. A lifeless hand dripping with a dark red liquid behind a wooden slab against the wall. I was quiet. My throat dried up. I didn't want to think what I was thinking. No... I walked up and looked behind the slab. A lifeless body... In a pool of blood.... I pushed the slab and it felt on the ground away from the body. I saw the face. The face I adored and loved....

The One After [SHAWN MENDES] by wondering_writer

He said he loves me. Shawn actually said the words I've never wanted anything more in my life, yet for some reason...it doesn't feel right. Is it because he said it when I was falling apart? Or because it was only in response to me pathetically bringing up how I feel again? I don't want pity-love. I want love that's like exploding fireworks. I want love that doesn't leave me with doubts. I want love that inspires songs. I need to be loved for who I am, not because he misses me or is lonely. I want it to be easy, not so painfully hard. I don't want to feel like he's settling for me after having lost the person he truly loves. Mostly I want him to love me more than he's loved anyone else, and I know that's not possible.
