remembering the events that unfolded a few days ago, shawn felt the sting a little bit more deeper now that he saw demi and wilmer together at the event. his eyes casted down to the guitar, strumming away a chord or two while his mind began to drift away. he wanted to talk, he wanted to be honest but he didn’t want to burden mila after the night out they had. it was a positive one for both, even if he was falling back into his inner battles again. his gaze shifted to the brunette beside him, his hand resting at the base of his guitar while he listened to her question. he sighed a little bit, shaking his head silently. setting the guitar beside him, he leaned  it against the side of the bed before he turned to shrug. “not really… it still hurts, mila..” his voice broke a little bit, the male quickly covering it up with a cough. 

     the atmosphere suddenly felt a lot heavier. his words were laced with misery and it echoed in her head. her sorrow skyrocketed, but, she kept her head up high for him. camila’s compassion meant ‘always put others first’. especially those who were the closet to her. nothing concerned more than the well-being of her loved ones. she’d be willing to stick by someone’s side for however long til the issue is resolved. “ .. --i know.. i know.  “ the shorter one shifted closer until their legs were touching, reaching up to run her slim fingers through his hair. “ look, “ she tried smiling at him reassuringly before going on, “ we don’t have to talk about it if you don’t wanna.. but if you do -- i’m here... i’m not going anywhere. “

the male’s eyes dropped to the clothing camila hugged against her body, letting them roam back up her facial expressions after she whined about being too tired. he shook his head at her in disbelief in a teasing way but he understood exactly how she felt because it was a chore to change out of his dress pants and the silk top he adorned earlier that night. he smiled when she said she had a fun night, feeling content with the thought of the pair escaping their stress and pressures for a few hours tonight. “or.. maybe he wouldn’t last a day,” he countered back with a thoughtful look on his face, challenging her words. shawn stood up and reached for the blankets behind his couch, motioning to his best friend to follow him down the hall to his room. “let’s just get more comfortable, you deserve to relax too..” he murmured before stepping behind her to gently drape the blankets around her shoulders. he hugged her slightly, looking over at the guitars propped over in the makeshift studio that they walked past. he stepped away from her to grab one of his acoustics from the small room before leading the rest of the way into the room. he plopped himself on his side of the mattress and patted the spot next to him, fiddling with a few strings lazily. it was a bad habit, needing to play some notes when he was avoiding pain.

     thinking back to the many phenomenons that happened earlier, one thought in particular wasn’t sitting right. it was pushed to the very back of her mind during the party - but now that they were settled in his quiet apartment, the image of her best friend being upset at the bar started to repeat in her head. knowing exactly why he was upset made it even more bothersome for her. they were still both very drunk - so it’d be wise to talk about it now rather than him being sober. an eyebrow raised at his remark, scoffing, “ alright mister tough guy. “ watching him signal towards his bedroom, she stood up but remained in place as he wrapped a blanket followed by his arms around her. camila frowned when he freed himself from their hug. though, it didn’t take long for her frown to snap into a smile when he approached his guitars. she followed him down the hallway and onto his bed, right where he prompted her to sit. the brunette listened to the chords he’d been plucking silently, anticipation shaking her leg since she couldn’t hold her concern any longer. “ uh -- shawn.. “ her murmur stopped his fiddling. “ .. are you okay? y’know.. cuz’ of what happened.. “

the male could feel the exhaustion sink in when they pulled up to his place, fighting to keep himself upright while the pair walked in after he unlocked the front door. yawning when he closed the door and kicked off his dress shoes, he chuckled when mila dragged herself to his couch and practically face planted herself into it. “i’m going to change really quick, i’ll get you something comfortable,” he murmured, slowly dragging his feet to his bedroom where he plopped himself onto the mattress for a few moments. it was only a matter of time before he stood up, grabbed some pj pants and a tank top to change into. it felt better than the layers of clothing he had on before, grabbing a shirt and light sweatpants for mila to change into if she wanted. finding her on the couch, he gently woke her up if she wanted to sleep in his bed and he’d take the couch. “don’t be sorry,” he said with a chuckle, setting the clothes on the other side of her. sitting in the spot she patted over for him, he smiled and nodded in response to her question. “i had the best time, did you have fun??” he asked, though he was trying not to remember what spurred all of his drinking tonight. “we should ask niall if we can join one direction,” he teased with a laugh and ran his hand up her arm out of comfort.

       the party absolutely wrecked her vitality and the car-ride to his place was just a tough battle of keeping her eyes pried open. though, to say the least, that ten minute nap did wonders, being drastically more awake than before. she studied her surroundings with multiple blinks but came to an abrupt pause to the change of clothes he brought her. she let her hand plop on top of them, closing her eyes in awe of the softness. “ ..mmm too tired... but i wanna... “ she whined, desperately wanting to wear those instead of the tight dress she currently had on. the girl grabbed the clothing then hugged it around her chest, looking up at shawn while he spoke. “ i’m glad.. and yeah - night of my freakin’ life.. “ rehearsing for almost seven days a week was exhausting - so doing anything besides that was a spectacular change of pace ( the alcohol lowering her stress about tour had been a bonus, also ). she laughed at the idea, shaking her head. “ he looked like wanted to kill us... we wouldn’t last a day. “

[cqmilq]

     the second they entered shawn’s apartment, camila kicked off her heels with a sigh of alleviation. spending hours in those shoes made her whole body ache - meaning she was powerless in changing into something more comfortable. the dress wasn’t too bad, though. she trudged over to the couch and let her body fall face down onto the entirety of it ( without being worried about any makeup staining because of the sweat-resistant products she used ) . “ i can’t... feel a thing... “ her words vibrated throughout the cushion. the longer she remained in that position, the heavier her eyelids were. eventually, she knocked out and slept there for about ten minutes before being awoken by a tall figure shaking her. her eyebrows furrowed, raising a hand to rub her eyes in order to rid the blurry vision. she saw shawn.. but with different clothing on. the girl struggled but eventually sat herself up-right with a little smile. “ sorry... i guess partied too hard... “ she scooted more to the side and patted the empty spot beside her. “ did you have fun? “

the male let out a laugh when all four of them sang the end of the song completely off-key, already feeling like this was going to be a night for the books. he exchanged quick hugs with the other two male artists, his hand resting on camila’s back to keep her near. turning his head to peer over at her, he recognized the song as a hit from one direction. quickly shifting his gaze back to niall, he threw his hand out dramatically for him to reach onto. he did not want to pass the opportunity to embarrass the hell out of him. “ she be my queen, since we were sixteen ..” he sang loudly to the other male, earning a not so impressed eye-roll. his hand was still on camila’s back, running his hand up and then ran his fingers against her bare shoulder to get her attention. “we want the same things, we dream the same dreams…alright, alright..” he continued, over-exaggerating a nod. he continued dancing along while the song continued and the beat picked up.

          watching niall shaking his head disapprovingly provoked a loud laugh from the younger one. to mess him even more, she shouted out the words with shawn and waved her hand in the air from side to side. after a little while of tormenting him, she turned back to face the crowd, where multiple people had whipped out their phones to capture this wild-like presentation. “ i know, i know, i know for sure.. “ the feeling of his cold hand on her shoulder prompted her to look at him instead while she continuously sang along to the words. her head banged to the beat, grabbing hold of his hand so that if she were to become dizzy, she’d have him to keep her still. " everybody wanna take her heart away... ” bending her body down, she inched her face closer until their noses collided. “ couple billion in the whole wide world... find another one 'cause she belongs to me. “

everything was perfectly orchestrated between their teams, never getting a minute for the pair to do what they wanted on free will. now? it was all different and admittedly, it felt good to enjoy a party with the brunette without worrying about what would be said to them the next day. letting out a laugh at her excitement, he nodded. “let’s go, mila…” the male said, mirroring her with a small bounce of his own and then he lead the way to the front of the bar, waving down lewis and niall. “i let my guard down, and you pulled the rug,” he sang loudly, reaching for the males to help him up. once he was on the bar, he extended a hand to mila and helped her up. he made sure she was steady, his hand gripping hers hard until they were both somewhat upright. the song ended a few moments later, his eyebrows furrowed while trying to recognize the familiar chords for the new song beginning. 

      camila scurried herself over to the bar, her eagerness growing wider when she spotted lewis and niall standing on top of the counter. fortunately, there was room for two more up there and they seemed to be inviting. they reached out for shawn to pull him up onto the platform, extending her own hands out to push him up as an additional lift support. as he steadied himself, he then held out his own hand to her. she locked her fingers between his and used the chair as a leverage to help herself up. “ i was gettin’ kinda used to bein’ someone you loved ! “  the girl cried out, throwing her arms around the two boys to greet them with an embrace. after what might’ve felt like forever, it was great being able to run into them again. camila brought her focus back to her best friend, frantically tapping his shoulder enthusiastically in reaction to the next song.

the canadian kept his attention on the shorter female, in tune with her whenever they swayed or needed to move to the beat. it was something different, something that only they could find the right rhythm in. he chuckled at her comment, giving her a light shrug playfully, rolling his eyes as if it was nothing new. “i learned from you,” he said, knowing they spent countless hours when they did the choreo for senorita. his dark orbs met hers, his hands going around her waist naturally while they danced. it was a new scene for him, trying not to trip over his own feet but he seemed to be holding his own pretty well. some old hits started to play, the male glancing over at the bar when he could hear some people singing on top of their lungs. “they’re loud..” he said with a laugh, squinting his eyes to see who they were. he turned her around in his arms as everyone seemed to be turning around to look at the bar too, holding her from behind while he tilted his head in curiosity at the others.

      out of the multiple times she’s danced with him, this one felt different. previously it was senorita choreo and only that. besides their PR stunt, they never had the chance to move freely. it didn’t feel forced.. or repetitive. they were their own directors now. her eyes rolled almost after his, replying, “ you’re silly. “ as peculiar as it sounded, she didn’t mind the hands roaming around her body ( considering they’ve been ridiculously touchy ever since they broke insane boundaries in the past ). the latina tilted her head, fading out everyone else in the room besides him by gazing deeply into his dark orbs. when shawn spoke, she overheard one of her favorites playing behind his voice - causing her to gasp. her posture straightened up when she was flipped around to have a better view of the bar. camila’s hand messily tried finding her friend’s while hopping in place. “ well, i bet i can be louder. can we go ? pleeaassee..? “

[cqmilq]

shavnmcndes​:

the male wasn’t one to dance, joking that it was his worst nightmare all the time. shawn preferred to stand onstage and perform his songs on guitar but he knew he had some rhythm, especially with a few drinks in him. his brown hues trailed over the shorter brunette when she leaned back into him, letting her take his hands. chuckling silently, nerves weren’t a thing when he was around camila, finding confidence in her no matter what. he swayed with her, running one of his hands down her hip gently while the other pushed her hair over to one shoulder. he felt free from his thoughts, the only thing on his mind was the music and his best friend moving in sync with him; which is why he leaned his head closer to hers, shaking his head when he caught her sneaking a glance at demi.  he wanted to continue this little escape so he gripped at her hand to twirl mila out quickly and then pulled her into him, pressing his chest against her back like before.

     camila mentally applauded herself seeing that her plan worked. now, shawn was  primarily focusing on dancing rather than the previous dilemma ( it may have also been the alcohol, but she pretended it that it was all her doing ). her hips swung in correlation to the boy behind her while closing her eyes to focus on the music. momentarily, she rested her head over his chest before he twirled her away from him surprisingly. her brown eyes flickered open and watched him with amusement. he rarely danced like this in front of people - especially a big crowd like this. as her body collided with his once more, she turned her head and flashed him a proud smile. the shorter one spun herself around so she’d be facing him. she grinned, mumbling. “ te veo. “ her arms then snaked around his neck to keep their bodies locked together.

shavnmcndes​:

the canadian male turned his gaze to the pair, watching as they navigated through the sea of different guests at this event. wilmer’s hold on her nearly made shawn roll his eyes, shifting his gaze back down to the ground when they couldn’t be seen in the plethora of people near their table. he pondered another drink but wondered how much it would really help at this point. his brown hues trailed up to his best friend at the poke on his cheek, earning a small smile from him.  he chuckled at her remark and slid off his barstool and then wrapped his hand into hers. “lead the way, gorgeous..” the male said. pushing through the swarms of bodies dancing, shawn extended a hand out before twirling her lightly. he was a really awkward dancer sober but with this much alcohol running through his veins, he could make it work. his hips swayed and he moved his hands along, singing along with the song playing and used his best facial expressions as if he was singing it to mila. 

     squeezing her way through the tight crowd, she led them to the very center of the dance floor ( guaranteed to be in proximity of the other couple ). she wasn’t quite certain that shawn was over demi yet - but, if there was a slight chance he was still into her, camila was willing to assist him in any way possible. she’d predominantly do anything for him if it meant raising his spirits. the booming music wasn’t enough to silence her giggle from being twirled around by him. the boy wasn’t much of a dancer, so the latina took the lead. she purposefully landed her back against his front, reaching behind her to collect his hands to wrap them around her waist. she then swayed both of their bodies side to side in pace of the music. there were numerous of times where she’d check to see if demi was batting an eye. whether she was or not, nothing was stopping her. at this point, the shorter one was riled up with alcohol. so, she continued to dance and illegibly sing along to the words. 

[cqmilq]

shavnmcndes​:

the canadian didn’t mind talking about what happened with camila, he knew she could be trusted with his heart and soul, even his life if it was in her hands. he smiled down at her, really grateful they could be here with each other. he loved attending events with mila, mostly because they would laugh at nothing at all and always found a way to make it enjoyable for themselves. his gaze wandered around the hall, seeing camila’s eyes widen from his peripheral vision. he turned his head, seeing exactly what caught her attention. he sighed, throwing his head back in annoyance. “so, the pendejo walking in with her somehow managed to get her under the covers..” he murmured to mila lowly. “only to have her come over right after all the photos of their little date got spread around..” he trailed off, shrugging his shoulders because now it felt like the alcohol was back tracking. the whole purpose was to forget it all tonight. he exhaled deeply, closing his eyes and lowering his head. he didn’t want to feel, not now. 

     camila was speechless. she physically had the inability of responding to what he was saying about demi. the same demi the girl had admired ever since she was little. that was totally unlike her. her eyes furrowed, eyeing the man up and down with familiarity. ( wait, wasn’t that her ex from like, years ago? ouch. ) she shook her head and looked back at her best friend as he finished. just by studying his features, he seemed hurt.. confused.. maybe even lost. seeing him that way chipped a piece of her heart. it was as if her emotions were intertwined with his. the older one wasn’t gonna allow his emotions to overrun him. not now, at least. this wasn’t the right place or time -- especially because she was here. the tiny lil’ light bulb in her head flickered on while the corners of her lips curved upwards. “ hey you. “ a finger poked his cheek to grab his attention. “ i’m bored. let’s dance. “ she hopped out of her seat and wrapped her hand around his wrist, tugging him gently.

Camila and Shawn spotted belting one direction at Hollywood Bash Dinner

the curly-haired male chuckled at mila’s question, reaching for the shot glass on the bar counter and then downing his the same time she did. “i think it’s both of us..” the male answered, nodding his head before gesturing to the shot glass and between the both of them sitting next to each other. he turned his body to face her, leaning his elbow on the bar. he didn’t want to think about the reason behind these drinks, only trusting that mila could let him forget the pain for a little bit. he grimaced at the mention of demi, shrugging his shoulders. “we haven’t talked in a few days.. and i know you needed time away from working so much,” he said sincerely, reaching over to fix a stray strand of her hair and combed his fingers through her sleek locks. 

     camila laughed with him, pressing her heel against the bar to spin her chair in his direction. no matter where they were, they'd somehow always enter a realm where it seemed like they were the only two that existed in the room. upon mentioning his lady ‘friend’, she noticed him grimace. it was a response she’d never expect. camila has known demi ever since she entered the music business. that girl was an angel - so she was clueless on what might’ve happened between the two. she tilted her head in curiosity as he grazed over the subject. he seemed uncomfortable speaking about it ( meaning she’d save the questions for a later time ). “ --- well, i’m happy i’m with you. “ her head dropped with a timid smile as he moved the strand of hair behind her ear. then, in the very corner of her eye, she spotted the previously mentioned. causing her eyes to widen when she spotted her with another man.

[cqmilq]

     “ is it me or is the room spinnin’ a lil? “ camila questioned the boy sitting beside her at the bar before downing another shot. her nose crinkled in reaction to the sharp taste. once she settled into it, she looked over to shawn with a crooked smile, placing one hand over his shoulder. “ also.. thanks for bringin’ me here.. -- i know you usually bring her to these typa things.. “

the curly-haired male chuckled when she shook her fist at the sky, reassuring her he was kidding and she wouldn’t have to worry at all. he kept his gaze settled on camila’s expressions, concern still painted on his features. he always wanted to make sure she was safe and getting more than enough rest. the pair of best friends were guilty of overworking themselves and being overworked by other people. it was a part of them being so hard working and such perfectionists. feeling his hand being moved down, he let her cozy into him and nodded in response to her words with hesitation. he wasn’t sure if she was being honest but he figured she would let him know when something was really wrong. it was the way the pair worked.

“well, if you need to catch a few z’s, don’t worry about it.. mi casa is tu casa,” he said with a failed attempt of trying to sound fluent. he bought his arm behind her on the cushions of the couch, shuffling closer to her. his eyes peered over at the movie title flashing on the screen and pressed the play button. “i’ve never seen this and i’m hoping i won’t have to sleep with all of the lights on tonight,” he chuckled, lightly leaning his head against hers while the movie started. it was barely a few minutes into the opening scene before his brown hues widened. “she’s going to open the door, isn’t she…” he sighed, rolling his eyes. 

     listening to him fail the pronunciation made her wince. it didn’t matter much though, she was proud of his effort. “ ai ~ si. gracias shawn. “ she nodded in acceptance before cuddling into his side. as he looked away from her, camila glanced up at the sky, praising the lord that the previous topic had been dropped. now that that’s out of the way -- staying awake was another challenge she must face. luckily, an easier one. the film playing on the screen in front of her would most definitely keep her eyes wide open. the sounds of the screaming alone frightened her - so even closing her eyes wouldn’t shield her completely from the horror. 

     “ that makes two of us. i dunno if i’ll even be able to.. considering all the dolls hiding in my closet. “ the girl didn't except the movie to be scary right off the bat. yet, the eerie sounds building up the suspense debunked her struggling optimism. she nodded to his words, aware that the characters usually do the completely opposite of what camila would do ( aka inspect the situation ) instead of looking away, she did the unimaginable and watched the scene with squinted eyes. the hand that was resting on shawn’s abdomen balled up into a fist, collecting a handful of his shirt as she squealed in response to the jump scare. the shorter one looked up to him with a trembling lower lip before murmuring, “ sorry. “
