the next day
shawn's pov
texting jennifer;
i'm sorry about yesterday
it's ok. i just never wanted to hurt you.
i know shawn. if it's ok, i still wanna be friends.
i wouldn't want anything different :)
can i get ur girlfriends number too? i wanna get to know her since NO ONE TOLD ME ABOUT HER !!
lol fine.
maybe this could be good for them both. jen could stay my friend, y/n could stay my girlfriend, & they could be friends with each other.
i should tell y/n so she'll know it's my friend. i select her contact on my phone to call her.
"hey baby." she says cheerfully.
"hi hunny, i just wanted to let you know i gave your number to one of my friends. her name is jennifer & i think you guys will get along great."
"oh someone texted me right now but didn't know who it was. maybe it was her. i'll check, but i gotta go. love you."
"i love you too, bye."
y/n pov
i talked with jennifer for about an hour & she's actually really nice. she told me she knew shawn since forever. we decided we wanted to meet up so she's coming over to my place at 3 pm. i get a text from her saying "i'm here." i laugh considering she didn't ring the door bell but instead texted. walking across my cold floor, i open the door revealing a blond, green eyed, olive skin girl.
"you must be jen!" i hold out my hand but she ignores it immediately.
"it's jennifer. only my friends call me jen."
"but i thought we are-" confusion rests in my face as i take my hand away from her.
"you're nothing but an annoying slut that doesn't deserve shawn at all. i only came here to tell you that."
"did i say something wrong, or do something to offend you?"
she rolls her eyes crossing her arms. "you're dating the man i fell in love with."
i'm shocked by the fact she's in love with shawn. i thought she only liked him as a friend.
"i'm sor-"
"don't say that. i've heard that from shawn too many times, just don't."
"wait, you told shawn?"
"i told him yesterday but he said he had a girlfriend already."
"oh." my heart flutters but at the same time i do feel bad for her.
"just so you know bitch, you will mean nothing to him within a couple of months & i'm going to make sure of it." she says stepping in my face pointing at me. she then walks away. i don't feel sorry for her anymore. i realize i was holding my breathe & let it go. there is no way shawn would give up what we have for jennifer. he's in this relationship too deep to leave just as i am. i have faith in us.
a week later
i can't do his anymore.
jennifer has been texting me rude comments all week. everyday i've gotten at least 3 calls & 5 texts about how much she hates me. she's been saying shawn's never really loved me. she's been saying horrible cruel things about my body. she has even dropped off folders at my door that have pictures of shawn & i but i'm cut out! all these comments are making me feel alone & unworthy. maybe she's right. maybe i'm not enough for shawn. what if shawn likes her & i'm just in the way?
i haven't told shawn about her continuous bullying. i've been too scared. what if he decided not to be with me anymore? what if he leaves me for her? it feels like my heart is broken & has been separated into tiny pieces.
i have to tell shawn. if i don't i'm going to feel worse about myself than i already do. i shouldn't be afraid to tell him about stuff. if we are going to maintain a heath relationship i have to tell the truth.
***
he is coming over so we can spend some time together before he goes home for the day. him & i are sitting in my bed & he's telling me about the new album vibe.
"it's has a lot of micheal jackson inspiration but in still sticking to my roots...."
i zone off after he says that. i'm tying to figure out how to tell him his best friend is bullying me. i should just rip it off like a band-Aid. soon shawn notices i'm not really listening anymore then stops talking.
"you ok?" he asks scanning me with concern.
"yeah...i just need to tell you something."
"shoot."
a lump appears in my throat causing me to loose focus. i regain in my full state after swallowing.
"jennifer has been harassing me."
his smile disappears, & to my surprise, is replaced with anger.
"you're lying." he stares blankly. i blind taken a back at his words.
"what do you mean i'm lying? why would i lie about this shawn?"
he stands up towering over me. "y/n, there is no way jen is harassing you! i've known her too long to know she would never do something like that!"
my heart sinks deeper than it ever has. the water in my eyes start to form but i manage to keep them from falling.
"shawn-" i try & get my words out but was aggressively cut off.
"you're insane! i don't know how i ever fell in love with you!"
i put my hands over my face trying not to break down. there is nothing worse than having the one you love not believe you or regret being in love with you. we've been together for 7 months & we fell in love instantly. maybe it was never real. i lift my face from my hands, scared to speak.
"i'm just trying to be honest." i whisper.
"yeah well your honesty is bullshit!" he screams.
i don't want to push things further so i don't say anything else. i let him leave without saying another word.
