Complicated

Chapter 93

Shawn's POV:
I frown at the messages, leaning back against the headboard of my bed. I get that her aunt is angry at her but Maggie's acting so weird since our date. Did I do something wrong? Maybe she didn't like the surprise.

Or maybe the promise ring was too much for her. I just thought she feels the same way as me. I decide to call Luc. "Hey Shawn. What's up?" he asks, after picking up.

"Hey. Um... you know I went on a date with Maggie after the hockey training?" "Yes you told me every little detail about it." He laughs. "Why?"

"Well, I gave her the ring and she seemed to like it but since that night she's avoiding me in school and also when I want to meet up with her.

Maybe I'm just overreacting and it's really because she has house arrest but something feels wrong." I explain, letting out a sigh.

"House arrest? I just saw her walking home from settlement where Emma lives, I think." He replies confused. "What? Why would she lie to me..." I mumble.

"Shawn, I honestly don't know but before we are jumping to conclusions again. Talk to her. I'm sure it was just a misunderstanding." Luc says. "You are right, I'll talk to her. Thanks buddy."

"No problem. See you in school." I hang up, slipping my hoodie over my head. Quietly I sneak downstairs, putting my shoes and jacket on before leaving the house. I don't want to wait till tomorrow. Also in school she can hide from me but not now.

After a few minutes of driving I arrive in front of her house. I climb up the tree besides the small roof and walk to her window, where the lights are on. A smile spread across my face as I see her curled up in bed in her normal clothes, her hair a cute mess.

Fortunately she let the window slightly open so I could easily push it open and hop inside. I sit down next to Maggie, stroking the strands of hair out of her gorgeous face as I remember why I'm actually here.

Slowly, I lean down and place my lips on her soft ones. I watch as she writhes slightly her eyes still closed, so I start to place quick kisses on her neck and jaw. „Hmm." she hums and rubs her eyes tiredly. I look up, my gaze meeting hers. „Shawn?" she mumbles, quietly.

I smile, ducking down to kiss her again and this time she kisses me back. Her hands find their way into my hair, pulling gently on the strands until her arms fall back onto the mattress, too tired to hold them up.

After a few moments I pull back. „What are you doing here?" Maggie asks in a sleepy voice. She sounds so damn cute. I sit, pulling her onto my lap which makes her groan. „Shawn I'm tired." she whines, hiding her face into my neck.

„Where were you?" I ask, not knowing how to start. „What do you mean? I told you I was at home because I have house arrest." Maggie says, looking into my eyes. „Why did Luc see you outside earlier then?" I ask, raising my eyebrow.

"Shawn I was honestly just going for a walk for like five minutes. I had to get out of my room." she says, struggling to keep her eyes open.

„Okey... but why are you avoiding me in school since our date?" „What? I'm not avoiding you Shawn. I'm sorry if it seemed like it but I'm not." she replies , frowning. „I love you. So much." she adds, kissing my cheek. I can't help but smile at her.

Maybe I was overthinking again. „I love you too. More than anything." I whisper, pressing my lips to hers for one more time. „Now lets get you into something comfortable." I say, walking to her wardrobe. „Shawn just let me sleep." Maggie whines, making me smile.

I take short sweatpants and a shirt she stole from me, giving it to her. „Turn around." she says, crossing her arms. „Okey, okey." I chuckle, waiting for her to finish. "Come here." I hear her mumble, causing me to turn around. She lifts her blanket waiting for me to lie down next to her.

Gladly, I crawl onto the bed, pulling her close to me and the blanket up to her shoulders as she places her head onto my chest.

"What if your aunt sees me?" I ask, rubbing her back. "I don't care." Maggie whispers. "Oh and... Damian kind of asked me to go to the school festival with him." she adds, kissing my jaw. "Are you serious right now?" I groan, rolling my eyes.

"Well, if we find out who the unknown number is till Saturday I can say no." She says, playing with the hem of my shirt. "Hmm... I will." I grumble.

She chuckles once quietly before cuddling her face into my neck again drifting off to sleep. Suddenly my phone vibrates.
I grab it still half asleep, seeing who texted. Can I please be dreaming now?
