Shawn looks at me and smiles. "You look flawless cupcake." He smiles at me.

"Thanks." I smile back and eat a fry after dipping it in ketchup. I look down at my wrists. I always wear long sleeves for a reason, scars covered my wrists. I look and see some are poking out, I bunch my sleeve up in my hand.

"Hey we should go to a party. There's one down town." He says

"Let's go." I smile

"Leah, who are you?" He chuckles

We do the cliché who gets to pay. Soon enough Shawn wins. We walk to his car where he takes me to a huge house. Music is blasting. Here by Alessia Cara, my favorite song. Shawn leads me in

"Do you want a drink. No pressure." He says

"Sure, one won't kill anyone." I smile. He smiles goofily and leads me to a table where he pours Sprite and a little bit of vodka into a red cup. I take a sip. It taste good has it burns my throat. He makes one for him. We both go and dance. He slides his hand around my waist and kisses me. A flash goes off. We both turn to see who hides behind the camera. It's Peggy the school bitch.

"Peggy, can you not?" I say

"Well this is being posted." She says posting it

"Seriously will you stop being a fucking bitch for a moment and realize that posting pictures is a petty thing to do." Shawn says.

"Oh really Shawn? You know last week you were begging for me." She smirks

"Before I met Leah, my girlfriend." He says taking my hand

"Wow then why'd you call me on Wednesday night asking for a booty call?" She says

"I did not, I swear to god" he says, I step in

"Hey slut, yeah I don't know your name but that suits you, back the fuck off Shawn because I know he won't hit you. But guess what I will." I smile

"Oh really?" She says. I slap her so hard it immediately starts bruising and my hand hurts

"Yeah fucking bitch." I say. She runs out of the party.

"Good job. She's been hitting on me for like 3 years, I always said no because she stalked me." Shawn says.

"Oh well." I say "I think she got the message." I say putting my arms back around Shawns neck. He connects our lips

•many hours and drinks later•

I wake up on stairs. I text Shawn

Leah: Shawn? Where are you?

Shawn: I'm in the upstairs bathroom. Come up here quick.

I run up and open the bathroom door. I look at what sits in front of me. Shawn with Peggy glued to his lips. A tear slips out of my eye, and I run downstairs.

Leah: Hey Sammi, can you pick me up? I'm at a party and I need to talk to you

Sammi: it's like 12 in the morning

Leah: please? I'm downtown and I need a girl to talk to!!

Sammi: Alright be outside

I grab my purse and make sure everything is there. I go outside and stand in the frosty air. I wait for her car to pull up. She comes up

"Come on." She says. I climb in. I explain everything, starting from when I moved in to what I remember with Peggy.

"Oh my god, you poor girl." She says pulling up to my house

"Thank you so much, I really needed a friend and you are a amazing one." I say

"No problem." She smiles. I climb up my balcony. I take a quiet shower and put on Shawn's shirt and some pajama shorts. I open up my suitcase and pull a small bag out. A razor blade. I sit down. I slowly put the blade against my skin. I slide it across my wrist, applying pressure. Tears stream down my cheeks. I make sure my door is locked. Slowly blood falls onto a towel. I stare at it and make one more cut before I look up and see Shawn standing before me.

"Leah, it was not what it looked like." He says "and Leah... Sweetie, what did you do.." He says pulling my wrist up to him "baby, don't do this, it's not ok." A tear falls from his eye

"If it wasn't what it looked like why was she there. Why did you let her kiss you? Your 6'1 and she's 5'4! You could have easily shoved her off." Shawn leads me to the bathroom and pours alcohol on my wrist and puts a towel over it.

"She forced it has soon as you walked in and the reason she was there is because stole my phone and I was trying to get it back. I would never ever cheat on you."

"Shawn I believe you." I say crying still "But Shawn, it's okay. I'm not a charity, I don't need you to act like I am." I look at him

"Leah, you are not a charity, you are perfect just the way your are. I really like you ok? I know right now it seems like I'm a douche because I am, like why would I go in a small space with her? I don't know it made sense at the time but I guess I just don't know." Shawn says. I look at him

"Shawn I'm serious, I'm the piece of shit and I am just pulling you back." I say

"Leah, stop talking like that, you are not a piece of shit, you are beautiful and amazing." He says

"Shawn, if I died, nobody would care. The universe wouldn't even notice. I'm just a small dot on a huge floating rock with no universal end." I say.

"I would care." He says. I slide off my counter. He takes me over to my bed "I'm staying the night." He says rolling to the other side of the bed. I lay down next to him. He smells like axe cologne. He pulls me close to him.
