chapter three

Shawn looked out of the window of his small house next to the lake feeling Amelie's hands around his torso.

"You're unusually quite" she said placing kiss on the back of his neck.

He forced small smile as he looked down at her "I'm just tired" he said.
Amelie frowned and moved away she sat on the bed "did you hear from your Camila friend?"

He was still looking through the window, he closed his eyes and sighed so she couldn't hear and mouthed quite "no"

He finally saw her after a long time.
She looked amazing, God she is totally stunning as always.
But there's something about her still there what he craves for.
Maybe just she.

Her chocolate brown loving eyes burned into his own eyes so dangerously, he felt the pain.
Her always flawless looking hair, just perfect.

"She seems really nice - but she didn't look quite happy ?" Amelie's face was wondering and questioning.

Shawn turned around and he rose his shoulders "I don't know, but you can't judge easily" he kind of fired at her. She took it that way.

"Okay" she said without big reaction wanting to drop the story.
"What are we gonna do after this?"

"We just got here. I've a lot of to do, we can't leave that easily. I need time for some things" he said looking into her eyes not believing how fast she wanted to go from his hometown.

"Okay, we have time Shawn" he never knew why she always easily just agreed to his every statement.
He closed his eyes sighing heavily.

"What's the matter Shawn?"

"Nothing" he sighed softly "it's definitely not nothing! Since we got back into this house you're emotionless jerk" she stood up angrily. That took his attention, she is always quiet girl with big personality.
He remembered when they packed their things and flew all the way to the Canada, she was exited and all patient with him and story he never told.
She hoped he will tell her now.

"I'm sorry" he said and tried to reach for her as she snatched hand from his.
"Sorry?"

"Amelie I'm - I'm um - I'm just nervous because, I've been away for so long. Many memories are coming back, those I tried to forget" he stuttered through his saying and her eyes softened.

"It's just my hometown I left at age of twenty, it means so much to me" hearing his words, she pecked his lips and hugged him tight.

"I'm sorry I overreacted" Amelie chuckled "it's gonna be okay" she cupped his cheek and kissed him softly again, she felt small kiss back.

As she pulled away she hugged him and whispered the words "I love you"

But she didn't hear them back.

-

"Yeah right Ariana" Camila nervously walked around listening to her best friend.

"Why?" She looked up from papers as she was checking last taken exam.

"Oh let me remind you - he has girlfriend her name is Amelie" Camila sighed heavily more like groaned "God he's so beautiful -" she rested on the table.

Ariana smiled and laughed at the same time "what I um didn't say that" Camila tried to ran away from the words she said.

"You're gonna meet him in some time. You're gonna be just fine

Camila cut her off "I can't, I wont. He seems happy and healthy, that's all I wanted for him"

Ariana looked at her best friend sadly
"But you're not happy baby, you're breaking and I won't let that happen. I saw you break multiple times and right now I want you to bloom. Take the weight off of you"

Camila kept quiet, playing with her ring on the finger as anxiety was peeking into her nervous system. She can't even imagine what could happen. She imagined that day to come. Maybe even earlier, but as time passed by she never thought anymore about meeting him again. She was helpless.

"Can you give me his number so I can text him?"

"When are you gonna do it?"

"When I'm ready"

Ariana nodded and sent her his new number. She memorized it, her fingers shaking, scared she won't accidentally call him.

"Thank you, I'm going to rest"

Camila went inside her room and took box what's under her bed and opened it.
She went through some papers, necklaces old pictures, she stopped and took one old but always looking good picture.

It is a polaroid from Paris, in front of Eiffel tower, them together.
Camila in his arms as he rested his head on top of hers, both dorkly smiling.
Happy.
In love.

She smiled but then pathetically she started crying again.
She heard Ariana yelling so she quickly moved away from her the box trying to stop crying.

"Friends in on, let's watch!" She got in and her eyes softened.

"Oh sweety" Ariana came closer and hugged her tightly "I don't know how I'm gonna do it -" she sobbed into her arms.

"I know you can do it"

"I'm just scared"

"It's gonna be alright"
