Complicated

Chapter 54

Shawn's POV:
Maggie stares at me with her mouth open but no words leave her lips. "Huh? Tell me!" I demand stroking thro my hair nervously.

"Shawn... how do you even know that?" "That doesn't matter now. Answer me for gods sake!" I say angrily. Maggie looks everywhere but my eyes, rubbing her nose.

"You looked at my phone really?" she scoffs. I groan and take a step closer to her. "Maggie who is that? Why won't a you tell me?" I ask softly. It's no use to yell at her. She sighs and puts her face into her hands.

"Shawn listen, I don't know who this is myself. He or she started texting me about five days ago. I thought it was only a joke so I didn't worry about it." she mumbles. Oh... should I believe her?

"Shawn please trust me. I love you more than anything and you know that I would never cheat on you." she says wrapping her small arms around my waist and snuggling her face into my chest. "I do trust you, my love. I'm sorry. It just worried me. Next time you tell me sooner okey? And tell me when the person text you again." I whisper while rubbing her back.

"Okey." Maggie says nodding. She smiles up to me and I couldn't resist the sight if her soft lips. I lean down and kiss her passionately. "Hmm." she hums making me chuckle. "Come on lovebirds let's go in, the movie starts soon." I hear Luc yell. I wink at my laughing girlfriend and intertwine our hands.

Maggie's POV:
I know I lied to Shawn but I did it for him! If I would show him the screenshots of the messages, he wouldn't leave me here for New York and that means I would ruin the chance for his career. I wouldn't be able to live with that. Ruining his dream. So I lied, just for now.

"Are we seriously gonna watch a horror movie?" Shelley groans. "Yes we are!" I exclaim happily. Luc and Shelley go and get the tickets while we stand in the queue for popcorn and drinks. "Are you sure you won't be scared baby?" Shaw suddenly whispers into my ear and hugs me from behind.

"Yes. I'm sure you will be more scared than me." I tease him. Shawn chuckles, sending shivers down my spine. "We'll see about that."

He murmurs and places little kisses from behind my ear down to my neck. "Shawn stop. Not now!" I scold laughing causing him to pout. "What about later. It's dark anyways." he says grinning. "No. You are an idiot." I chuckle shoving him lightly away from me.

Luc and Shelley decided that we are going to watch "It". We sit down on two double seats. One of them for me and Shawn and the other for them obviously. "I heard that the movie is really scary." Shawn whispers as the lights shut off. "Great." I mumble through my mouthful of popcorn.

"You are adorable." Shawn laughs and quickly snaps a picture of me. The bright light making me close my eyes. "Shawn!" I shout after swallowing the popcorn. My shouting earns curses from some of the other people causing me to shut up.

"Oh my god that's so cute." He chuckles looking onto his phone. "It's not! Delete it." I mutter and cross my arms. "Nope. It's gonna be my new background." He says smiling. I was about to get annoyed again as the film starts. Huffing I turn to the front. "Come here." Shawn whispers and pats his thighs.

I shake my head still pretending to be mad. Shawn raises his eyebrows and leans towards my ear again. "I know that you'll end up on my lap sooner or later.

You always act like your not afraid but then you are." He smirks as I still don't answer and continue to watch the movie. Just 20 minutes into the movie and I'm already squeezing the blood circulation in Shawn's hand off.

He's right. I get scared easily but I love these kind of movies. The next scary thing appears and I cling onto Shawn. He lightly laughs and lift me up onto his lap. I don't protest. It's actually really comfortable. "Told you so." he whispers and kisses my cheek.

He wraps both of his arms around my stomach and rests his chin on my shoulder. We sit like this for the rest of the time. Me almost punching Shawn when something scary happens.

Suddenly a man with the hood of his hoodie over his head walks through the cinema hall right below the big screen. It's too dark to see more than the silhouette of him. He stops at the exit to let his eyes wander over the people, stopping in my direction.

I could feel the panic rising in me. He could be looking at anyone here. Am I getting paranoid? Another ten seconds pass before the stranger walks through the exit. What the hell was that? I look over to the others.

They don't seem to care but I do. I got a strange feeling and I'm way too curious about who that was. I'm going to look if I still see him. „Shawn I have to go to the bathroom." I whisper so he let's go of me.

"Should I come with you?" Shawn whispers back, giving me a gentle squeeze. „No I'll be right back."
