SHAWN'S POV:

It was beautiful. Her laugh, it was exquisite and just the thing I've been missing. After the date we had that night, life became much more bearable. It was the the first time I didn't feel weird being seen with a girl. We held hands on our way from classes we had together, I sat at her table for lunch, she insisted she wasn't ready for my circle and honestly I'd rather have her all to myself everyday. We stole kisses every chance we got and soon everyone found out we were a thing.

    She couldn't get used to the attention she was getting as she's used to the shadows. To make matters worse, her sister was part of the crowd that spoke ill of her. But above all that, whenever I look at June, i wondered how i got to be so lucky.

    ~~~~~~~~~❤️~~~~~~~~~~ I stared out the window of the BMW that kissed the road with its tires as it took me out of my community. I sighed at the rain that poured relentlessly mirroring my feelings as I left my comfort zone. A few months ago I thought my life was perfect and there was nothing going to ruin it. "June,there's really no need for the long face, you're going to love it there, I promise." My family lawyer said the exact same words he told me after the decision was made by the court. An aunt I have never met, sure she came for the funeral but I didn't really care to know who attended or not. Not my fault. "Your aunt is going to take good care of you, besides you have cousins your age."he tried to get a word from me again only this time he was successful.

    "So let me get this straight, you got asked to prom by Shawn and you don't want to go?" Lisa asked for the thousandth time that evening.We had begun our homework after having a quick lunch. She was sleeping over although it's a school night. Her parents weren't exactly a happy couple, they always fought and Lisa would come over to avoid the drama. She kept on distracting me even though I had a math homework that was killing me. I hated math, sure I always aced it but it didn't mean I enjoyed it. I looked up to her and twirled my pencil."Yes Lisa, Shawn is a jerk, I don't want to have anything to do with him." I looked down at the work I was doing and realized I'd gotten the answer, I squeaked in excitement."Besides, this could all be a plan to humiliate me again. It wouldn't be the first time. And I sure as hell don't want to be any source of entertainment.""Okay, if you're sure. But I don't think your si

    Prom was fast approaching. If you didn't know what prom was, the posters and giggles in the hallways and classrooms could define it for you. It was fair to say everyone was excited, well except me of course. I won't lie, I didn't hate prom, but I already got used to the idea of never attending the event or any other school dance. Jane made sure of it, the last time Someone asked me to a dance, she locked me in the wine cellar simply because my dress and date was prettier than hers. Later she threatened any boy that walked my way until they were too scared to even spare me a glance. So I continued to live in the shadows until everyone eventually forgot me, just the way I liked it. I managed to stay awake during&nbs

    I carefully parked my car and got out. I hadn’t seen her up close for a while. I couldn’t remember the last time I said a word to her, could be months really. It would sound crazy to someone if I told them, seeing that we lived in the same house and attended the same school. I looked at my sister, although she’s 19, she didn’t look a day over 15. She still had her small frame, and beautiful face. Her hair was parted at the center and fell straight past her breast almost reaching her waist. Mine was longer though, although it was wavy. I really wasn’t in the mood for the conversation we were about to have but alas, there’s no avoiding her. I finally walked up to her and stood in front of her. She eyed my entire body and tried to look intimidating. If I was still 15, it probably would have worked, but my 17 years prepared me for this moment. I

    I woke up earlier than usual, as a result of a sleepless night. I tossed and turned so much it seemed impossible to sleep. Who knows if someone already figured out who I was and told the entire school. Every one would mock and point fingers at me. I’d be labeled ‘Shawn’se new play thing’. I looked at my watch and the time was five minutes past 5. I had a lot of time before getting ready for school. I didn’t know what to do to keep me busy. My body was tired and a part of me really wanted to go back to sleep, but I knew if I laid down again, I’d miss school. I sighed and rubbed my eyes. I got up and stretched a little before walking to the bathroom. I kept on yawning the entire time. Girl, I was tired. I looked at my face in the mirror. The bags under my eyes were becoming prominent and a permanent part of my face. My hair was a tangled mess, it looked like

    "Well, shall we?" He smiled sweetly at me, his dimples showing from the light that touched his face."Yeah sure. Let's go." He led me to the car and opened the passenger door for me and helped me in. He went round the car and sat in the drivers seat. He buckled his seatbelt, I mirrored his action"You see? I'm such a gentleman." He was clearly teasing me."You do not even qualify for the G" I scoffed an he chuckled. We sat in silence for a few minutes"You look beautiful. I'm sorry I didn't say it earlier. I couldn't find my words." He took my hand from my lap and gave it an unsure squeeze. I didn't know what to do. I didn't want him to find out I've never been this close with a guy before. Plus, no boy had ever said I was beautiful before. This was becoming awkward as he awaited my reply"Uh thanks. You don't look so bad yourself." I managed to blurt the words out. I looked at the hand he was holding. I wanted to squeeze it too but I removed

    SHAWN'S POV:I feel stupid, how did I manage to blow the only chance I got?. Oh how I wished for this day, every day since middle school, I had a crush on her. That's the sole purpose of my picking on her, I thought it'll make her notice me and finally realize how much she meant to me, but the pranks only sent her farther from me.She wears a black hoodie to school every morning, hiding her beautiful hair, hoping she would sink into the shadows unoticed, but I noticed. How could I not? she walked the halls, with grace. She's not the awkward loser who's trying to hide from her bullies, no she's far from that. She just didn't want a part of whatever sham high school is. I also noticed how she was always there before I got to school, so I figured she came really early to avoid any sort of grand entrance. I wanted so badly to talk to her, explain why I pulled all those pranks. Why she always felt she was being watched, so I be
