Shawn Mendes Imagines

Kid In Love

I grab my backbag from the car seat next to me and hop out of the car closing the greyish door of Honda behind me. My gaze lands on a pretty familiar house in front of me.

Me and some of my friends come here ever year in the end of the summer and stay for a couple of days to spend some time together before we go back to school.

It's my best friend Stephanie's uncle's summerhouse and it's located in the middle of the forest, uncivilized place. It's quiet and calm here which i love.

I walk over to the house and enter after Steph. "Guys found youself a room and put your things away, we're going down at the lake later to have a campfire!" Steph tells us.

I grab my things and run upstairs to get the room i have always managed to claim first. Since everyone loved it's large space and balcony i had to be quick.

I grab the doorknob and step in after shutting the door. I stop in shock. Someone's clothes were already on the bed and i could see a guy standing outside on the balcony and i guess enjoying the fresh air. 'Shit' i mutter to myself and before i could turn around to leave the room i hear the guy call my name.

I slowly look at him recognizing his brown eyes and curly hair. It was Shawn, my childhood best friend who Stephanie had also invited to come with us. I totally had forgot about him also being here.

We had grown apart since Shawn had to move away. It was a couple of years ago and we hadn't communicated since. I had missed him.

"Oh, hey Shawn. Sorry i thought this room was free." i try to look calm though i was shaking inside because of the awkwardness.

"It's okay" his eyes land on mine. A small smile appears on his face.

"See ya later" i squeeze myself through an open gap of the door behind me. I find a new room quickly enough no one would see me in the hallway.

I step down the small rocky hill holding a sixpackage of applecider and other alcohol in my hand. As i approach the camping spot i place the package on a wooden table near the campfire. I sit down facing the fire Tom, Steph's boyfriend was trying to get lightened up, soon succeeding.

As everyone got gathered up by the fire, Shawn coming last with his guitar, we settled down. I gave everyone drinks and soon enough everyone started chatting. As the night went on everone was getting a bit drunk and the noise was getting louder.

I usually was scared to get drunk because i never knew what i could do and afterwards regret it and i guess so did Shawn. I had looked at him a couple of times seeing the seethrough cup not emptying much. I guess we were the only ones sober enough to keep others grounded.

He had sung some songs before and i admired his incredible skill of playing guitar and beautiful voice. He had improved a lot within two years.

It was getting darker and colder but no one wanted to go inside yet. Instead of that Joseph, Tom's best friend came up with an idea to go see stars on top of a cliff near the lake. Everyone including me agreed. I needed a walk.

After a ten minute walk we got to enjoy the beautiful sky of stars. I stepped closer to the end of the cliff.

"Be careful" i heard Allison, my other friend warn me with a soft tone in her voice affected by the alcohol she had drunk. I was starting to turn around to smile at her for her worry when i suddenly felt ground under me move.

The next moment i was hanging down the cliff my hands holding tightly on a root sticking out the rocky cliff. Shock and fear of heights taking over my body i felt tears watering my eyes. I wanted to scream but no voice was coming out of my mouth. I couldn't hold the root anymore. My fingers were slipping off.
