For the third chapter of this story, my story, I was so nervous. I remember everything like it was yesterday. Moving in with the supposedly love of my life was gonna to be harder than I had ever imagine. I had no idea how much difficult it would be.

The third chapter.

As I woke up the third day after waking up from the coma I was in, I heard my mother talking on the phone.

- Yes, she is getting out of the hospital today (...) I told her about the relationship you guys had and I convinced her to go back to your apartment. (...) At what time are you coming to pick her up? (...) OK. She will be ready. (...) No, please don't worry, you have to be strong for her. (...) OK. I trust you with this, yeah. (...) OK. See you later.

It was obvious that she was talking on the phone with Shawn. I clearly wasn't ready to try to live in the life I forgot. I knew it would be hard but at the same time I knew Shawn wanted the best for me because if my mom trusted him, I did too.

My mother walked back into my room and started packing the stuff that she brought for me.

- Mom?

- Yes honey?

- Where is papa?

- Your dad is with your sister at home. I forgot to tell you, we are in Los Angeles. We aren't home and that's why your father and your sister couldn't come but as soon as you are ready, you can call them!

- OK.

She continued to pack my things as I was watching her, wondering what my life would become. I didn't want to leave the hospital because I was so nervous about what was going to happen to me, it was very scary.

I took the hospital to call my dad since I didn't know where mine was or if I even had one. We talked for awhile and my dad even cried. I explained that I didn't remember a lot of things. This was difficult for both of us. The memories I may have forgot, I would never knew these things I missed. I didn't want to talk to my sister, I wasn't ready. I wanted to be in my best possible condition before talking to her. As soon as I hung up, my mother told me.

- Shawn will be there in ten minutes to pick you up, Do you want me to stay until you guys leave or would you rather be alone with him?

- I would prefer if you weren't there mom. I have to be face to face with him, I think he deserves it.

- Whatever you wish honey.

She put a bag with my things in it on my hospital bed and gave me a passionate hug almost like she wasn't going to see me anymore.

- Are you OK mom?

- Yes, I missed you Camila and now I'll miss you even more but this is the best thing for you right now.

- I'll miss you too.

- I have to go, call me!

- I will.

She took her purse and headed to the exit which made me anxious to think that I was about to leave the hospital with a perfect stranger.

I was stressed. My hands were shaking, I was sweating. How could I even agree to do this? It was probably for the best but it was really scary. I closed my eyes and wished it would all be fine. I took a big breath and then I heard someone say my name.

- Camila?

I opened my eyes. Shawn was in the door.

- Yes?

- Sorry I wasn't sure if you were sleeping.

- It's OK.

He walked in the room and I got out of my hospital bed. He was standing in front of me and looked right in my eyes. A tear slowly ran down his cheek. I could see that he was trying to hold it back. He looked down, embarrassed.

- Are you OK?

- Yeah, it's just that your eyes..

- What about my eyes? I asked.

- They don't seem as bright no more.

There was a silence. I didn't know what to tell him. I never thought he would be this emotional.

- Sorry it's just hard.

- I get it Shawn.

I forced a smile to comfort him. I actually didn't get it, I only said that to make him feel better.

He pointed at the bag on my bed.

- Is that yours?

- Yeah, I guess.

He smiled at me and took the bag in his hands.

- OK let's go home.

- Yeah..

We walked out of the hospital and people stopped us to take pictures. We took pictures with them and when we were about to leave, someone asked:

- Are you guys dating?

Shawn hurried to respond because he didn't want me to say something I wasn't suppose to.

- No, we aren't.

We said goodbye to the fans and went in Shawn's Jeep.

He drove for about an hour and after parking his car in an underground paring we both walked to our apartment. It was an open area from the living room to the kitchen and there was our room right beside the kitchen. I followed Shawn in our room and he put my stuff on the bed.

- So this is our room but I'll be sleeping on the couch until you feel comfortable with me.. Uh, your clothes are in the closet and the bathroom is there.

He pointed at a door which was in our room. He continued:

- If you have any questions, I'll be happy to answer them and if you need anything, just tell me.

- Well, I do have a question.

- Go ahead.

- Are you in love with me?

- I'm insanely in love with you Camila.

- You know, I hope I'll just wake up one day and remember everything.

- Maybe it's better if you don't remember everything.

- Why?

- It's complicated.

- Just tell me.

- Let's just say that we were in love and you.. But either way, I was a fool for you and I still am.

- I what?

- Nothing. I'm sorry, I'm so tired I haven't slept in three days.

- You can go to sleep if you want to.

- Yeah I think that's what I will do. Oh! By the way, your phone is on the little table beside the bed and my number is in it if you need it.

- OK. Goodnight!

- Goodnight Camila!

He kissed me on the forehead and took some clothes in the closet before going in the living room to sleep.

I decided I should also get some sleep since I slept in a hospital room for the last two months. I looked in my closet and after some minutes of research, I finally found something to wear for the night. I sat in my bed and took my phone. Obviously I had a lot of notifications. From Instagram to Twitter, to Tumblr, I had a ton of fans wondering what was happening with me. Then I went on Facebook. A lot of fans were tagging me in some articles.

«Camila Cabello finally out of the hospital, Shawn Mendes picking her up?»

« Were Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes in a secret relationship for all this time?»

« What happened to Camila Cabello and what happened between her and Shawn Mendes?»

A ton of rumors were going around but some of them were true. I just had to pretend they weren't true which wasn't easy for me. Maybe I just shouldn't go on social media for awhile? All of this attention wasn't good for me. I turned my phone off and tried to sleep. It was hard, sleeping in a bed that didn't feel like mine, in an apartment that also didn't feel like mine, with someone I didn't even know. As much as I didn't remember him, being with him reassured me in a way. He felt like home in a place who only felt like a house.

End of the third chapter.
