Shelby's POV

"I'm gonna miss you." Steve sighed.
"I'm gonna miss you too." I hug him.
"But I have something to look forward to now."
"What's that?"
"Our wedding."
"Oh yeah. Are we gonna tell the gang?"
"Let's wait till you come back and visit next month."
"Sounds good."

"Bye guys." I wave as me and Greg pull out.
"Bye." They wave back.
"I sure am gonna miss them." Greg sighs.
"Me too."
"Maybe it's good you get some time away. Explore your optioms." Greg said.
"What?"
"Ya know. Your options. Guys. You're not tied down Shelby. I'm not saying go crazy but maybe you'll find someone you like more than Steve."
"I don't think that's possible."
"You said the same thing about Caden. Look how that turned out."
"Steve isn't Caden."
"And Steve isn't any other boy."
"Let's talk about this later."

We road in silence for a good hour. Then, it happened.
"This is my jam!!" Greg cranked up the radio.
"I thought love was only true in fairytales
Meant for someone else but not for me
Love was out to get me
That's the way it seemed
Disappointment haunted all my dreams
Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
I'm in love, I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried
I thought love was more or less a givin' thing
But the more I gave the less I got
What's the use in trying?
All you get is pain
When I needed sunshine I got rain

Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
I'm in love, I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried
Love was out to get me
Now that's the way it seemed
Disappointment haunted all my dreams
Oh then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
I'm in love, I'm a believer
I couldn't leave her if I tried
Yes I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
Said I'm a believer, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(I'm a believer)
Said I'm a believer, yeah
(I'm a believer)
Said I'm a believer, yeah
(I'm a believer)" We jammed out together. When the song ended we acted like nothing happened and stared at the road in front of us.

Steve's POV

"I wonder what Shelby's doing right now?" I randomly ask Soda.
"Man we ain't gonna get any work done if you keep blabbering." Soda said for under a car.
"Yeah." I sigh.

"This is my jam!!" Soda rolled out from under the car.
"What?"
"This song! Turn it up!" He demands. I turn up the radio. He grabs a broom ad starts dancing with it. At first I stared at him weirdly. But this song is really catchy so I joined him.
"I thought love was only true in fairytales

Disappointment haunted all my dreams

I'm in love, I'm a believer

"I bet Shelby and Greg were jamming out to that too" Soda said.
"Nah. They ain't weird like you. Get back to work."
