S I X

Hi guys, it's still me, Camila. Are you still focusing on this story? Maybe you should, there's so much you don't know yet..

The sixth chapter.

I was still sleeping when some lips landed on my forehead. My eyes took a while to open due to the lack of sleep I had the night before. When they were finally opened, I saw this young man in front of me, waiting for me to realize what was happening. 

- Good morning! I'm going to a meeting, I'll be back in three hours.

- Uh OK.

I wasn't completely woken up yet which made it hard for me to answer.

- Are you going to be fine Camila?

- Ye- Yeah. 

He smiled and left the room. I closed my eyes and took the time to wake up. Then, I sat on the bed and looked around, wondering what I could do. I got up and started to look around Shawn's apartment. I spent the past few days in the bedroom so I knew that part of the apartment so I went in the kitchen and tried to figure out where the rooms were.

 First I saw the room where Shawn record his music. I entered and there was at least fifteen guitars hung up on the walls. I took a guitar and started to play random chords. The random chords quickly turned into a melody I knew but I did not remember what it was. I continued to play and my mouth started to hum a melody too. And those melodies then turned into a song.

You've got a hold of me
Don't even know your power
I stand a hundred feet
But I fall when I'm around you
Show me an open door
Then you go and slam it on me
I can't take anymore
I'm saying baby
Please have mercy on me
Take it easy on my heart
Even though you don't mean to hurt me
You keep tearing me apart
Would you please have mercy, mercy on my heart
Would you please have mercy, mercy on my heart

I remembered something. I suddenly stop to play and my eyes closed. I got another flashback.

(FLASHBACK)

Shawn is playing guitar and then he starts to sing Mercy. I turn around to show him that I'm listening. My eyes are looking at the ground to avoid his. As he's done singing the first chorus, he puts his guitars beside of him and look at me. 

- Do you like it?

- Uh, yeah.

- Are you sure?

- Uh.. I mean, I figured.

He looks confused. 

- Never mind Shawn.

- OK. Love you. 

- Love you too. 

I say as I look away from his eyes.

(END OF THE FLASHBACK)

I was so confused. What was that flashback? What did I mean? I put the guitar back on the wall and sat on the couch in the living room to try to make me focus on something else. I answered fans on twitter with my phone. They make me feel so good. I can't believe they still support me after everything that happened to me. I spend a lot of time answering fans while watching television during a lot of time but I was still thinking about the flashback I had.

After some hours, Shawn came home. I started to get nervous because I wanted to talk about the flashback but I felt like I didn't want to know the answers at the same time.

- Are you OK? You look so nervous.

Crap. I guess I'm not good at hiding feelings. 

- Uh, I'm not sure. 

- What's wrong.

I hesitated. 

- It's OK Camila, you can trust me, I won't ever judge you. 

- Uh, can you sit down? I feel like I have a lot to tell you. 

- Sure. 

He sat down. 

- Uh, You know when we kissed the other day.

- Yeah, what about it?

- I didn't just felt bad suddenly.. In fact, during that kiss I had a flashback. 

- Really? What was it?

- It wasn't something happy..

- oh..

- That's how I knew I did something terrible to you.. And today I got another one that I want to ask you about. 

- OK but do you.. do you know what you did?

- No..

- OK, go ahead.

- I remembered that you sang Mercy to me for the first time and I told you that I figured.. why did I say that?

- Uh Because the song is about you. 

- Ok but you are saying in the song that you love me and it takes all from you basically so why would I be upset about it?

- «I stand a hundred feet but I fall when I'm around you.» « Show me an open door then you go and slam it on me» « Even though you don't mean to hurt me, you keep tearing me apart» Those lyrics are really meaningful, just think about it..

- I'm so confused.

- You won't be for too long... But I'm so afraid of what you will do when you finally understand. 

- I'm afraid too. 

End of the sixth chapter.
