Shawn:
After Annabeth went outside to talk to Aaliyah I just watched as they sat on the swing set together, talking about something. About twice now has Annabeth blushed which makes me nervous on what there talking about, I hope Aaliyah isn't out there giving me a bad name now. They just stayed there talking which caused me to grow bored. I wandered the kitchen for a muffin, then the whole house before actually coming back to check up on the girls. I just stood there, watching as Annabeth cartwheeled, flipped, and twisted across the lawn, landing perfectly at the end. Aaliyah clapped her hands as Annabeth cam back around to her. I opened the sliding door and stepped outside, clapping my hands also.
"That was... Wow" I said walking towards the girls
"Shawn! Did you know Annabeth used to be a gymnast?" Aaliyah squealed in excitement
Annabeth laughed and blushed slightly. Aaliyah suddenly jumped up which made us flinch.
"Oh I'll be right back!" she shouted, running to the house
After Aaliyah disappeared it was an awkward silence.
"Well... I fixed your sister" Annabeth said with a laugh
Her laugh and just her voice sent butterflies into my stomach. All I could do was laugh along with her.
"Yeah I guess you did" I replied looking down at her
Our eyes suddenly locked together. An odd tension filled the space around us, my heart beat began to accelerate. It all broke away after the back door slid open and shut. Our heads snapped towards the door to see Aaliyah running up to us, a note book in her hands.
"I want your autograph!" She stated, handing Annabeth a pen and the notebook
I just stared down blankly at the child. Annabeth's autograph? Annabeth just smiled, opened the notebook and signed her name. She did it fast as if she were already used to it. I watched over her shoulder as she added a little crown to the 't' in her name. A crown?
"There you go love" she sais, a sound of excitement in her voice
"Thank you so much! Shawn you have the best girlfriend ever!" Aaliyah squealed again before running back to the house
My cheeks heated up, I am really going to kill Aaliyah when Annabeth leaves. It left us alone again, an uncomfortable tension rising up.
"Well then, uh... You might want to get home huh" I said, I really didn't want her to go, but Georgia was going to ask where she was if she didn't get home soon
"Yeah...." She replied
She walked back to the house and disappeared inside. I just stared after her. Her laugh killed me, I couldn't stop thinking about her, and she's not even drop dead gorgeous.... OH SONG IDEA! I ran back inside, those words yes ugh where's my stupid notebook? I flew into the living room and dove onto the couch where my note book is. I tossed it open and wrote down my idea so far.
"Damn you run fast" I heard Annabeth say behind me
I looked up at her and laughed.
"I run fast for two things. Muffins and ideas" I replied which made her laugh, oh god that laugh
"What's the idea for?" she asked, sitting at the edge of the couch
"A song" I replied quickly shutting my notebook before she could peek at it
"A song? A song means a new album... YES YOUR COMING OUT WITH A NEW ALBUM!" she shouted
I laughed as she squealed, now I remember she's a fan... Right. She stopped, her cheeks red from fangirling so much and a smile stuck on her face.
"Oh my god that's so embarrassing" She said, covering her mouth and laughing
I laughed even more, she was so cute.
"Nah its fine, I'm a celebrity, used to reactions like that" I said, flipping over and putting my hands under my head
"Yeah go figure" she said rolling her eyes
"Yeah, fans fangirl over my music-"
"Release dates" she added
"Performances"
"Oh don't forget the dashing good looks" she added with a laugh
She called me good looking... SHE LITTERALLY JUST ADMITTED THAT I LOOK GOOD!
"Oh yeah those too" I said, running my hands through my hair, I HAD TO PLAY IT COOL AND ACT LIKE THAT REALLY DIDN'T JUST CAUSE ME TO SCREAM INTERNALLY
She laughed and shook her head at my ridiculousness. Suddenly the sound of "Stitches" filled the air. Annabeth shot up, dove for her backpack and quickly pulled her phone out. She answered it without reading the caller ID.
"Hello?" she asked, breathing heavily from her sudden quick motions
Her face came into sudden realization and worry at the voice on the other end.
"Okay Max calm the heck down, what happened?" she asked sitting on the floor
Max? Whos Max? Probably an ex boyfriend... Oh god Shawn shut up you don't know that. But still, it could be another boy she likes or something.
"Oh my god Max, explain in full detail" she said urgently
She listened as the person on the other end talked frantically. She motioned me to come closer to her and I got up from the couch and went closer.
"Shawn can I borrow your phone?" she asked, putting her phone to her elbow
I nodded and gave her my phone. She muted her end and dialed a number on mine.
"Hello?? Its Annabeth. Y-yeah I know-. God listen to me! Max is having a panic attack, go check up on- yes I'm sure! Thank you, yeah well okay bye" she hung up and handed me the phone before un muting hers
"Max, Max you there??" she asked before looking down at her phone and hanging up
"Everything alright?" I asked, even if it clearly wasn't
"Yeah, its fine" she said putting her phone back in her bag
I decided not to push the matter further, since you know, still tryna stay on her good side ya know? She sighed and ran her fingers through her hair which just made me stare at her beauty... God have mercy on me please...
"I should probably get going" She blurted out
I hesitated before nodding in understandment, my parents where going to be home soon and Annabeth had to get home.
"I'll drive you, Aaliyah's gonna have to tag along" I said with a sigh, standing up and sighing Annabeth just nodded as I stook my hand out to help her up
She took my hand, and spark coming from her touch, this was the first time I actually touched her hand. She picked up her bag as I called out for Aaliyah to come with us. We all got into my jeep and Aaliyah by instinct turned on the radio. We rolled down the streets, just listening to music and hearing Aaliyah sing. Then Stitches began to play, and Annabeth's familiar voice struck my ears.
"I thought that I've been hurt before" she sang along
I smiled and joined her in the pre chorus
"But no ones ever left me quite this sore" She smiled at me as I sang along with her
"Your words cut deeper than a knife" We all sang
We continued to sing, Annabeth and Aaliyah singing the chorus while I just hung back to the pre chorus. Before we knew it we were singing to every song that played, until we got to Annabeth's house.
"Bye Annabeth! Hope I can see you soon again!" Aaliyah shouted out as Annabeth stepped out of the car
"Same! I'll see if we can invite you and Shawn over for dinner someday!" she replied
She said my name, YES!
"Bye Anna!" I called out
She rolled her eyes at the new nickname I had given her. She better get used to it!

Annabeth:
I walked into the house to be greeted by Muffins.
"Hey girly!" I cooed, picking her up before walking deeper into the house
"Georgia!" I called out, where the heck could she be?
"Georgia!" I repeated, no answer?
"She's pwobably not home wight muffins?" I said in a baby voice
I walked up the stairs up to my room. The door was open which was strange because I would've sworn I shut the door this morning. I stepped in and my eyes widened as Georgia fumbled with something in her hands.
"Why the heck do you have this?" she asked, looking up at me
"Why the heck where you in my room?" I yelled in response, snatching the item away from her
"Well its my house Annabeth, from the good sake of god im letting you stay here! Now why the heck did you bring this?" she shouted back as I put the object away back in its case where it belonged
"I brought it cause its mine!" I snapped
"Well why do you have Aiden's? Oh and I also found your moms" she replied crossing her arms
I just shook my head.
"Get out" I said harshly
"Annabeth-"
"I said get out!" I shouted, hot tears streaming down my face
She huffed and walked out of the room, slamming the door behind her. I screamed and banged my hand against the wall. Memories rushed into my head, Max and I playing, Aiden and I playing, family reunions, visiting fa-... My vision began to grow blurry as my hands began to shake. It was getting hard to breath, and I just hypervenalated as I looked over at my desk. It all worsened as I saw what was on the desk... It was Aidens... Aiden's... He was dead, they were dead, that was his... I trembled as I stepped forward toward the desk, trying to get to the object. My legs gave out from under me and my body continued to shake uncontrollably. Suddenly my world went dark....

Georgia:
I cant believe she brought them all the way from London... I wonder if Grandmother even knows there missing.... She probably doesn't. But she brought three of them. One day we could be robbed and they could disappear, what happens then? There irreplaceable.. God I had to call Grandma, tell her what she brought... No then that would crush Annabeth completely, no not after all the trauma she's been through... I battled with myself as I went down the stairs, I could hear Annabeth screaming from her room. I shook my head, it pained me to see her like this. Her sobs suddenly stopped, and there was a thud. I froze. Annabeth!
~*~
I know I know, yall probably hate me right now. Save it for later... Also, did anyone catch the little something I hid like two chapters back? The name of Annabeth's doctor is Ethan Grayson.. Catch on yet?? No? Well you know Ethan and Grayson Dolan, the Dolan twins? Well I was watching them while writing the chapter and was like "YUP THERE YAH GO I CANT THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE SO BOOM!". Oh and the multiple song references in this chapter tho XD. Anyways, safe travels through space, GOOD NIGHT!
