"Wowowow you look amazing!" Shawn said as he walked in the bathroom. Camila's makeup artist and hairstylist were currently busying themselves on her look for the big night. Glancing up at him, in the mirror, she smiled.

"Thanks babe. And you look quite dashing yourself."

Shawn went for his classic all black look, wearing a black three-piece suit. It was sharp and neat, and fit his form perfectly.

"Alrighty Camila, your hair and makeup are done!"

"Wow thank you so much guys, you've really outdone yourselves this time! I can't thank you enough, I don't look like a zombie anymore." Camila chuckled, hugging both of her friends.

Tonight was the Oscars. The biggest film award show ever, the highest prestige an actress such as herself can get. And this year, Camila was nominated for Best Supporting Actress. An Oscar! Her! She still couldn't believe it.

"Shawn, wanna help me get in my dress?"

He gladly nodded and walked her over to her closet, where Camila's magnificent dress lay.

It was a red gown, with a tight V-neck top, and it came down in a beautiful silky flowy manner around her. Camila slid in it, and Shawn helped zip up the back.

Camila took a big breath.

"Hey, you okay?" Shawn asked her, taking both of her hands and looking straight into her eyes.

"Yeah, it's just you know... This is huge. Like the freaking Oscars. This is kinda like when you got nominated for a Grammy, remember?"

"It'll be okay, you got this. You've worked so hard and you deserve this." He whispered soothingly into her ear. Camila hugged him, smiling.

Shawn stepped out of the car, and rushed to Camila's side to open the door for her.

"Shall we?" He grinned, reaching his arm out for Camila. Shegiggled, he looked like a boy in a candy store. He's never been to such a big event with so many actors before.

"You gonna fangirl over Emma Watson?" Camila teased.

She saw his face light up as she began walking down the red carpet. Along the way, Camila stopped by to chat a bit with her friends. Camila introduced Shawn to Jennifer Aniston, Eddie Redmayne, and many more famous actors.

"Oh my god I used to have the biggest crush on Eddie when I was a teen." Camila giggled to Shawn as she made her way to another group of photographers.

"You don't anymore right?" Shawn stuttered. Camila looked at him and burst out laughing.

"Of course not stupid. Gosh you're so cute." She giggled up at him. He stared down at her with a goofy grin.

"Just wanted to make sure." He whispered into her ear as cameras flashed at her.

Camila made her way to the center, and caught up with Academy Awards Pre-show, Robin Roberts.

"Robin! Hi!" Camila exclaimed, hugging her.

"Camila how nice to see you! Wow you look stunning. Actually, doesn't she look beautiful?" Robin asked the camera.

"She's perfect." Shawn grinned.

"And of course, Camila brought Shawn Mendes, everybody. Tell me Shawn, how does it feel, your girlfriend being nominated for the biggest award in Hollywood?"

"Oh my gosh, um it's surreal. I'm so unbelievably proud of her, I have no words." Shawn gushed.

"Aww." Camila and Robin both smiled, Shawn squeezing Camila's hand.

"So, Camila how do you feel?"

"Wow it is so overwhelming. Like two years ago, I'm in my sweatpants watching the very same awards from my couch, and then I star in this huge Scorsese movie and now I'm actually here? I feel so blessed."

"You are so cute, both of you. Well, I wish you both the best of luck, and we go back to you Lara!"

The both of them made their way to the theater, laughing and goofing around. Camila had made some silly poses in front of the cameras just for the fun of it, as long with some classic serious ones, and even joined a huge group photo with Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper.

The show started, and Camila laughed along with the whole audience as Ellen Degeneres cracked another joke.

The night continued, it was all very enjoyable. Camila watched some of her best friends take home awards, and Ellen had really outdone herself when she ordered pizza.

"Here's what I'm gonna do. Meryl, here's my idea. You were nominated 18 times, a record-breaker. So I wanna break another record right now, with the most Retweets of a photo. So right now, I'm gonna take a picture of us, and then we'll see if we can break the record. Oh, you too get in Julia. Jennifer, yeah Bradley come on in. Of course Camila, here squeeze in, Shawn you too."

Camila laughed as Shawn put bunny ears behind her head. "I'm gonna go retweet that now."

It was almost here, Camila's award. Before she knew it, Christoph Waltz walked out on stage holding a gold envelope.

"I'm honored to salute the outstanding performances given by the 5 exceptional actresses nominated tonight. 3 of them are first time nominees, all of them are amazing. Here are the nominees. Sally Hawkins, Blue Jasmine. Jennifer Lawrence, American Hustle. Julia Roberts, August Osage County. June Squibb, Nebraska. Camila Cabello, Cinderella."

Camila shuffled in her seat excitedly and Shawn squeezed her hand, bringing it up to his lips.

"And the Oscar goes to... Camila Cabello, Cinderella!"

Camila's mouth fell. Did she hear correctly? Did she?

"I'm hallucinating." Camila said as she stood up. Shawn stood up as well, pulling her into a tight hug.

"I'm so proud." He whispered into her hair. Tearing up, she made her way to the stage.

"Oh god my makeup's gonna be totally ruined." Camila started off, earning a laugh.

Shawn was staring at Camila so intently, giving her his full attention.

"Um there's so many people I'd like to thank. Um oh wow, an Oscar!" Camila shook the little gold man in her hand. "Oh god, this is unreal. Thank you to my parents, my friends, my boyfriend Shawn. You're the best. And shoutout to the director, the Academy, thank you so much everyone! I just want to say, if you have a dream you can accomplish it. I'm serious this is cheesy, but it's true. Work, and you will get there. I promise. Thank you so much!"

Camila gave one last smile before she walked out, still gesturing unbelievingly with the award.

"Thank you so much for coming tonight Shawn." Camila kissed her boyfriend, now back at home.

"Of course I came, love." He kisses her back. "I'm so proud of you."

Camila smiled. She felt unimaginable happiness. Having Shawn, her very first Oscar. What more could she ask for?
