Thirty-two
1:46 PM
I open the door of the bakery and look around. no sign of Shawn. I decide to find a nice table, and when I find a small table. It's in the back of the bakery.
When I hear a bell I look up, my heart skips a beat.
it's out of my control, all of the memories come up right away. the way he smiles, the way he kisses.
a small smile appears on Shawns face when he notices me. when he walks over to my table, I take my time to check him out.
he wears a light denim jacket, with a white shirt and simple black jeans. The black glossy, leather shoes finish his outfit. Simple but very neat.
I stand up when he's almost at the table. am I going to hug him? or is that weird?
"Eve, hey," he says. he takes his sunglasses off and looks at me.
"you look cute" he smiles. I tried my best to look good. maybe I do want to impress him...a little...
"so, how are you?" Shawn asks when we're done ordering our drinks. "Good, but the bigger question is, how are you?" I smile.
"Never been better" he begins "I am getting more and more popular, people like my songs, and I definitely like it!"
"How did you manage to do all this, in such a short period of time?" I ask. "When I got out of the centre, I thought I was fully 'healed', but it was hard" he takes a sip of his cappuccino. "I wasn't always happy, at first I had a lot of anxiety attacks. But these anxiety attacks became less regular when I started singing" I nod understandably. "I knew I liked singing, and I wasn't bad at it at all..So I started posting videos online. And before I knew it, I received an invitation for a meet up with some famous producer"
"wow, that's awesome," I say genuinely. I didn't expect it at all. he continues the conversation by asking some questions and before I know it it is 6 PM. I have to make dinner for me and Harry tonight so I can't stay much longer.
"It was great seeing you, Shawn," I say, and I explain why I have to go home.
We ask for the bill and I grab a $20 bill out of my purse. "no way" he smiles "it is my turn to pay now"
"I haven't paid before?" I ask myself out loud. "yes you did when we snuck out of the centre for some french fries and a big mac" he smirks
I totally forgot
"so, If I pay now, we're even" he pushes the $20 in my hand and grabs some money out of his wallet. I roll my eyes and decide to not make a thing out of this.
he laughs satisfied and stands up. he now towers over me. he is so damn tall.
