Shawn's POV
what the hell is happening to me?
I've never had this much interest in a girl. and side note, she's lily's best friend! what's wrong with me??

I heard a knock at the door which snapped me out of my thoughts. it must have been Evan since he was coming over. I went up to the door and as I had thought, Evan was there.

"hey man." Shawn greeted Evan and he went into the house. They went to the kitchen before they headed up to his room to get snacks. After they got the snacks, which were potato chips (Shawn's favourite) they went up to his room.

"so, anything new happening in your life?" I thought about y/n. Should I tell him? I trust Evan and all but I don't know if I should tell him... Ah, stuff it.
"well, there's this girl." I stopped and started to blush.

"oooooh, who's the lucky lady?"

"its Lilys best friend, y/n"

"damn Shawn, is Lily okay with it?"

"well, I haven't exactly told her yet.." I rubbed my neck and looked down at my feet.

"are you planning on telling her?"

"yeah, but not yet, I want to see where things go."

"wait, so what has happened so far??"

"well, we nearly kissed today in p.e. Don't ask it's a long story." I looked up at Evan and his jaw was open all the way. A small smile spread across my face and he laughed.

"Wow, that was fast." he chuckled.

"Yeah, it was." I chuckled too. For the next few hours, we just hung and played my guitar. But then after dinner, he left since it was getting late.

I went back up to my room and picked up my guitar again. I was feeling really inspired, I don't know why I felt this way I just felt really, really inspired. So I rested the guitar on my lap and picked up my notebook, full of lyrics. And I started writing.

In a few minutes I had already got the verse down and I started to match chords up with it.
The first verses lyrics we're these:

I love it when you just don't care
I love it when you dance like there's nobody there
So when it gets hard, don't be afraid
We don't care what them people say
I love it when you don't take no
I love it when you do what you want cause you just said so
Let them all go home, we out late
We don't care what them people say

When I finished singing/playing the first verse my mind wandered to y/n. I noticed that the whole time I was writing down lyrics, I wasn't even thinking, it was as if my hand was moving in its own. After I read over the lyrics a couple of times more I realized that the lyrics

were about y/n.
