Battle Scars

Chapter 4

Shawn is finally able to pick the lock on the bathroom door. He had to tell Aaliyah to go back to her room because she was about to call her mom.

Shawn's mouth is hanging wide open when he sees all the blood.

"Bailee....."

"Relax Shawn. I'm-" my voice cracks, the after affects of crying.

Shawn comes over to me and picks me up and carries me to his bed.

You can tell he himself is trying not to cry.

"I'm so sorry." He says

"Wh- Shawn!? It's not your fault, you didn't do anything!"

"I should have stopped those guys before it got this bad."

"Shawn. I'll be okay. Just 4 days and we can leave this town for the summer."

He takes my wrist and looks at the cuts.

"Sh- You need bandages." He says

He walk over to the medicine cabinet in the bathroom and brings me back a couple of bandages.

Shawn lays beside me and I lay my head against his shoulder.

"We can get through this right?" He asks

"Right." I say even though half of me doubts it.

He kisses the top of my head.

"Your okay now. I've got you Bailee." He rubs his thumb across my cheek to dry the tears.

"Shawn?"

"Yeah?"

"I lo-....Thank you."

He smiles at me.

"I was made for this." He says

"For what?" I ask a little confused.

"To be here. With you. I was made to be yours." He says at a whisper.

I look up at him.

He presses his lips right on mine.

It feels weird. Like Shawn is my bestfriend, not a guy I should be kissing.

But at the same time, it feels right. Like this was meant to be.

My hands move to his hair and I tangle my fingers in his hair.

His hands on my waist....

"I love you, Bailee." He says in a deep voice.

"I love you too, Shawn."

And for the first time, in a long time, I felt myself truly happy.

He let's go of me so I can go to bed. I'm extremely tired.

"Goodnight." He whispers.

"Night.." I say in a lazy tone.

I hear Shawn giggle at me before I start to slowly drift into sleep.
