In the spin of fame and success, he lost his way and got stuck in a vicious circle. He was no longer the picture-perfect golden boy of the music industry who had his life figured out and career flourishing. Now he was the perfect warning example.

''Mom, we've talked about this. I'm happy here.'' ''Yeah, I know. We just miss you. We haven't seen you in almost four months.'' That was true. First, you spend two weeks in Amsterdam with Annie, then you hopped on the tour bus and have been rising it for over three months now. For your parents, it must've felt like forever, while you didn't believe it had even been a month. Everything was moving at light speed. ''Actually, we did see you and him on the cover of some rumor magazine the other day. Did you know about it?'' ''Oh, I didn't. You know I don't read that kind of magazines. But I'm not surprised, he is followed everywhere he goes.'' ''And do you want to be a part of that?'' ''I mean,'' you sighed, ''It may not be what I had thought my future to look like but right now, honestly, it looks like him. I know it's only been a little over a month but I-'' ''We know, honey. For what we saw, you looked really happy. That's all that matters.'' ''Thank you, mom.'' ''But we do want to meet him, alright?'' ''Absolutely. He has already talked about the possibility of meeting you both when he has a show in LA after done here in the UK.'' ''Oh, that's excellent!'' Shawn stormed in making the biggest noise ever causing your mom to hear him too. ''Is that him?'' ''It is.'' ''Well in that case, I won't keep you any longer! Tell him we said 'Hi,'. ''I will. Love you both, bye.'' After you put your phone down, you could see the biggest grin on Shawn's face who came from downstairs after meeting Andrew. ''I have a surprise for you.'' Shawn jumped on the king-sized bed in the middle of the hotel room in London you had been spending two nights in. After you started sharing a bed, you didn't sleep a night on the bus anymore. Shawn demanded that no matter if it was just for one night, you would be staying in a hotel. Defended it by saying the bus was not doing it for his back and that the air in there damages his vocal cords. It was very clear to everyone he had made everything up and the reason behind it was completely different. But you didn't mind. After all, it was only for your benefit too. ''Oh?'' You hopped next to him, excited about the surprise. He had surprised you once or twice with a flower or a coin he had picked up from the ground. Flowers because according to him, every girl wanted flowers, coins for good luck. Even though wasn't anything big, it was the sweetest thing. ''I'll be all yours tonight.'' ''Wait, seriously? What happened to the interview?'' Shawn had had an interview scheduled for tonight with KISS radio station. It had become very clear since they had been trying to get Shawn to do it for a week. He wasn't too ecstatic about it but you didn't know why. It was just an interview, right? But most of the times it was brought up, he'd try to change the subject or would get extremely annoyed. And when he got annoyed, it showed. **throwback** ''Shawn, they've been calling again. Are you doing this or not?'' Andrew walked inside your parked tour bus at a gas station. He always stayed in another bus, so he was walking back and forward between yours and his busses. ''Can they really not take the hint? I'm not doing it,'' Shawn rolled his eyes hitting the buttons on his Xbox controller with more force. ''I think you should do it,'' Dave tried to recommend sitting next to Shawn, eyes locked on the TV playing against him on Mario Kart. (let's just pretend you play Mario kart on xbox caus i really don't know any xbox games, alrigt? great.) Just then Shawn fell off the road in the game and dropped the remote on his lap turning his head towards Dave. ''Well I didn't ask your opinion, didn't I?'' Shawn continued playing. ''Well I'm sorry I just thought that you haven't done one interview since-'' ''Yeah I know, thank you,'' Shawn snapped. ''Maybe it's time to get back out there?'' ''Seriously, who the fuck asked you?'' Shawn barked dropping the controller back on his lap. ''Shawn, calm down,'' Andrew coolly stated behind them. ''No, you know what, I'm done here. I already said I'm not doing it so get over it.'' Shawn got up from the beam bag and grabbed his jean jacket from the couch but saw Brian rolling his eyes in the booth drinking his coffee. ''And your problem is?'' Shawn snorted at him. ''Nothing. Just that you turn into a full bitch when (Y/N)'s not around.'' ''Excuse me?'' Shawn raised his voice. But he knew Brian was right. You had gone inside the gas station to get water since the fridge had run out now that water was what Shawn actually drank. Andrew sighed not having those two egos up against each other again, ''Brian just... Don't, okay? And Shawn, just think about it. The first is the worst. It'll get easier from there. You just have to tear the bandage.'' Shawn realized he was getting too heated over this. He started to count to ten, it being something you had tried to teach him every time something was building up inside him. Somewhat it worked and he let out a large breath. ''Whatever I'm gonna go find-'' You opened the door crashing it against Shawn who was standing behind it. ''Oh! Sorry!'' ''It's fine. I was just about to come and find you.'' Shawn's tightened jaw instantly loosened as he pulled you to his side kissing the top of your head for a little longer than normal. That instantly started an alarm in your head. You looked up at Shawn's tired smile, you immediately saw was half forced. You placed your hand over his cheek and mouthed, ''Are you okay?'' He nodded the smile still on and tightened his hand around your waist. Andrew's phone's sharp ringing caused you to shoot your eyes at him. ''Mhm... Yeah I'll do that. Alright,'' Andrew spoke to the phone. You held onto Shawn's hand with both of your hands behind your back and pulled him to sit on the couch next to you. He rested his head on your shoulder placing his one arm over your stomach and started running his fingertips up and down your side. You buried your fingers in his hair running them through it as a calming effect. You noticed something was weighing him down but you also knew he wasn't going to just start opening up right here right now so this was the best you could do at the moment.
