From afar, I cannot help but stare at how amazing he is. I mean, just look at him! How his brown hair is always styled upwards, how his eyes seem to sparkle, and let's not forget about his amazing smile. I love him so much and I'm happy to call him mine but that's not the case. We have to hide it from everyone in this school but I would rather have him in my arms for everybody to see that I am his and he is mine.

"Earth to y/n." My best friend said snapping her fingers in front of me.

"Huh?" I asked, snapping back to reality.

"Were you staring at Shawn?" asked Darren, one of my close friends as he raised an eyebrow at me.

"No, I wasn't."

"Ooh. I think someone likes Shawn Mendes." Kurt teased.

"Who said I did?"

"Come on. Actions speak louder than words." Iris said, nudging me on the waist with her elbow.

"Oh really? In that case..." I said before flipping all of them off.

They laughed at my gesture and went back to the conversation I was zoning out from. I looked up and saw Shawn already looking at me. I gave him a small smile and he returned the gesture to me. I grabbed my phone from my bag and sent him a quick text.

I love you, my hot af idiot for a boyfriend 😘 Nothing and no one can ever stop me from loving you 💙

I pressed send and looked up to see his reaction. He looked down at his phone before turning back to me and smirking. He looked back to his phone and started typing a reply. A few seconds later, my phone lit up.

I love you more, weirdo 😝😘 You mean more than the entire world to me. You make me feel as if I really do belong in this world. 💙

I couldn't help but smile at the message as my cheeks started heating up. He always has that effect on me. My friends asked me if I was okay or why I was smiling but I just shrugged at them and continued to smile down at my phone. I looked back up and he was smiling back at me.

When the bell rang, we all made our way back to our classrooms. On the way, Shawn hugged me for a brief moment so that no one else could notice his action. Once I got to my class, I couldn't help but think of how life would be if people didn't judge others. The only reason why Shawn and I keep this secret is because he's the bad boy in this school while I'm just a nobody.

After two hours of torture, school finally ended for the day. I got up immediately and waited by the door frame to make sure that all of my friends have left before looking for Shawn. It wasn't that difficult. He was leaning by the wall behind the school, smoking a cigarette — which I'm not happy with— when I was able to catch up to him.

"Hey." I said, leaning beside him on the wall.

"Hey." He said bluntly.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing."

But somewhere in his eyes, I know there was something bothering him. I stepped away from the wall and went in front of him. He looked at me straight in the eyes before looking away, biting his lip while doing so.

"It's not nothing, Shawn. I can see it in your eyes and you promised me that you would stop smoking since we both know it's bad for yours and others' health. Please tell me, what's bothering you?" I said, holding his hand.

"I hate hiding all of this." He muttered.

"I hate it too but you know why we keep this secret."

"y/n, I'm used to them judging me. What are you so afraid of? Why can't I show the world how much you mean to me?"

That shut me up. I know I have said that I wanted everyone to know about us but my insecurities get the best of me. I've been walked all over by the people in this school and the fact that I'm dating Shawn Peter Raul Mendes would turn me into every girl's target. I know my boyfriend's hot but they would stop at nothing to get him for themselves.

"I'm out of here."

He pushed himself off the wall— dropping the cigarette to the ground and stepping on it in the process— and walked to the front of the school. Of course, I followed behind him.

"Shawn, please." I said as I tried to hold onto his arm.

"What, y/n? Are you going to shove the fact that you're ashamed of me in my face? Because if you are, I'm not going to take this!" He said with so much hurt.

"I never said I was ashamed of you!"

"Your friends were right, you know. Actions speak louder than words. And by the way you act, you're making me doubt if you really care about me."

He turned away from me and went to his motorcycle which was parked near the entrance of the school where majority of the students are at this time.

Fuck this. Fuck being judged. Fuck my insecurities. And most of all, fuck those bitches.

I grabbed Shawn's arm and pulled him to me. He turned around in annoyance and I took this as my chance. I stood on my tip toes and crashed my lips on his. He was shocked at first before his arms slipped out of my grip and wrapped themselves around my waist. Mine ended up around his neck as everyone around us stared. Once I pulled away, I smiled and looked at him straight in the eyes.

"How's that for action?" I teased.

He laughed before kissing me on my forehead.

"You're just full of surprises, aren't you? I'm sorry for getting mad at you back there. I love you." He said against my hair.
