"So, you still go to school, right?"
"Yes, I do, but I'm in my final year so I don't have that much left" I said to Shawn.
After I hung up on him earlier, I got basically beat up by Maja. She then left immediately, even though she just left my house and waited for her chauffer on the street in front of my house, so I could call back Shawn.
I still waited 15 minutes so it didn't seem like I was too desperate to talk to him, and yes, I know that sounds very desperate.
We now talked for like half an hour. He first excused himself for calling nearly a week after he asked for my number and now we were just talking about random stuff. He said he couldn't call because his schedule was too tight this week. And I believed him because if he didn't want to talk to me he hadn't called at all.
"And what will you do after school?"
"I honestly don't know. But I really liked to moderate the category at the AMA's so maybe moderating is something for me."
"Yeah, you really did a good job. I think nobody really noticed that it was your first time doing something like this. At least I wouldn't if I hadn't known" he said and I felt my cheeks blush and tingle.
"Thanks" I said. I never really knew how to handle a compliment so I don't know what else to say than 'Thank you' and to smile. Bad thing when youre on the phone and the other person can't see your smile. "Must be an amazing feeling to stand on a stage like yours nearly every evening."
"It is, yeah" he replied and you could hear his smile. "Do you know if the Unicef Project will continue?"
"Uhm, yeah, we have something planned. I don't know what it is yet and when it will be but I guess they'll plan it similar to the last one, where we did the photoshoot and the other stuff a few days before the AMA's so that I could present it there."
"So maybe you can moderate something else soon?" he said with a hopeful voice.
"Yeah, I hope so"
"Who knows, maybe we will stand on stage together the next time" he then said and made me blush again.
"Yeah maybe. Maybe youll win a prize next time" I teased him.
"Heeeey! It was really close ok?" He pouted but laughed. "What would you have done if I won the prize, and not 5sos?"
"I don't know" I laughed. "Give you the prize I guess." I know what he was meaning with his question though. He was referring to our previous 'relationship' to each other. The first time we met we were at the golden globes and he just came up to me. Then we didn't talk or see each other for a while, then a few days before the AMA's he followed me on all my social media.
A small silence came up and I was thinking about what I could say and I just heard him begin to talk again when my father called from downstairs "Dinners ready".
"Oh, I'm sorry, my father just called for me that the dinner is ready."
"Bon Appetit" he replied.
"Thanks. It was really nice talking to you though". I said, to assure him, that I didn't end this call because I just didn't want to talk to him anymore. I would love to continue talking to him.
"I agree. Uhm, I guess we'll write or call?" he said-asked.
"Absolutely. Have a good night Shawn."
"You too Julia. Bye" He said and hung up. I promised myself that I would text him first, no later than tomorrow morning.
I then went downstairs to join my parents in the dining room. This evening we had a soup with some bread.
When we finished dinner, it was around 8 PM and I still had to do a little bit of homework.
While I did my geography homework about how volcanos erupted I thought about Shawn's and I's conversation. It was really nice talking to him. I don't know how to explain it but I just really liked it. Could it be possible that now there was something going on between us? In a romantic way?
I was probably just exaggerating but the thought of him being interested in dating me made my stomach tingle.
I tried to concentrate on my homework and finished them 45 minutes later. I made myself ready for bed even though I wasn't going to bed yet.
At the dining table we talked about Unicef and what the next project could possibly be and I remembered that I hadn't looked on social media for recent 'opinions' of the cooperation.
When I posted the Unicef videos the reactions were pretty good, but I don't know how it would be a week after releasing?
For that reason, I first went to Instagram and then to twitter and scrolled through the comments.
I'd say 85% of the comments were positive, the other 15% were just people saying stuff like I would just do this campaign to get more fame.
But that was ok, you can never satisfy every single one and it was just a few of the comments.
After a while of scrolling through the comments I drifted of and after half an hour I read tweets of other celebrities.
I noticed how I slowly got bored and thought about what I could do, because I wasn't tired yet and if I'd try to sleep I would just lay in bed awake.
I just read a tweet in which someone asked his followers what he should do and that wasn't a bad idea so I switched to the typing field and just typed in 'I'm so bored rn, what should I do?' and tweeted it.
Due to my growth of followers in the last weeks I got some quick replies. Most of them said stuff like 'sleep', 'listen to music', 'watch a movie', but some others were really creative stuff and I began to write with some of the people in the comments until my phone began to rang and the screen said that 'S' was calling.
I began to smile and picked up the call. "Hello?"
"Hi. I heard you were bored?"
"You're right, I am." I giggled. How cute was that?
"Wanna talk for a bit? Cause I'm bored too." Shawn suggested.
"That'd be nice" I answered. "Just wait a sec. I'm gonna go onto the balcony." I said. "Sooo. What do you want to talk about?" I asked him as soon as I sat down in a chair.
From my balcony on I could see a lot of the city, and it was really beautiful at night when you could see all the lights, like now.
Whenever I talked to somebody on the phone (mostly Maja) I liked to sit down here.
"I don't know. What are you doing right now?" he asked. I had to smile because it kinda seemed like he read my tweet and immediately called me without even thinking about some topics he could talk about with me.
"I just sat down on the balcony and am watching the sky. And you?"
"Going onto my balcony too." He said and I heard a door swing open in the background. "Do you see any stars? Because I see like three or four." He giggled.
"I can see a few more. You live in Canada, right? Where in Canada?"
"Toronto"
"I guess you live in the middle of the city, right? That would explain why you see so few stars". I said and he laughed lightly.
"Yeah I do, Miss Einstein."
"I'm not miss Einstein, but I do actually have German roots." I said proud.
"Really? In what way?" he asked.
"The family of my father is German and they live there. He was born there too but moved here when he was like 18 or so. And I speak a little bit German but not really good "I laughed.
"I would love to speak another language than English. I have Portuguese roots but I sadly don't speak a word."
"Do you speak French? I mean it is the national language of Canada."
"No, I don't" he said and began to laugh what again, made me smile. I really liked his laugh, it sounded so real.
You can imagine how we continued to talk for a few hours even tough we both probably should go to sleep.

I FINALLY FINISHED THIS CHAPTER
i am really sorry it took me so long and i dont know why but it was just really hard for me, writing this chapter.
I also had a lack of motivation because the last chapter just got so less reads in comparison to the other chapters, but i try to update faster now.
And my last schoolyears just started and it is already so stressfull. I have soooo much homework while some of my friends nearly have none.
About the chapter: in this chapter there are a few facts that aren't real. Or maybe they are real but i just made them up for the story. While i mostly research my facts for my story i made up the thing that Julias father is german and all the other german stuff. But all of the other stuff should be true (correct me if it's not)
i had some problems writing this chapter and a few of my friends helped me a lot so thank you to Y, L-M and M
i really hoped you liked this chapter and continue reading this story even though i upload so slow.
