Babysitting

"Are you sure that Shawn is sleeping outside on the hammock?” You ask Aaliyah while filling up the water gun from the bathroom sink. 

Shawn had invited you over to help babysit Aaliyah, when he decided to take a nap before you came over. He was such a dork, but he was your dork and that is the only thing that mattered to you. You and Shawn have been together for a year now, things still going wonderful and strong. 

Aaliyah responds, “Yeah he is always sleeping. He and I stayed up last night playing video games.” A laugh escapes both of your lips. You instantly cover your mouth, trying to remain as quiet as possible since the windows were open.

You turn off the faucet and screw the lid on the water gun tightly. “He is a light sleeper, so we need to be very sneaky.” Smiles cover your faces as you open the door for you and Aaliyah to go through. 

Laying there in the hammock was Shawn. He looked so peaceful laying there, underneath a wool blanket. It’s been an hour and a half since you arrived to the Mendes house. That meant, Shawn has been sleeping for far too long. 

Aaliyah quietly sneaks up to her brother on the left side of the hammock while you take the right side. Both of your eyes meet and share a quick nod, releasing the freezing cold liquid from the gun to the adorable boy sleeping. 

Your boyfriend was now awake, drenched in water. “Which one of you came up with this idea?” He looked mad and freezing, but mostly mad. Aaliyah was quick to rat you out to her brother, dropping her water gun and running inside of the house. 

“She helped me find and fill up the water guns! She was part of this plan babe,” you say while putting the gun on the ground, slowly backing away from your tall boyfriend. “You were asleep when I came over, so we decided to have some fun.”

Shawn did not look pleased. “So you punish me for getting beauty sleep? I’ll punish you for this y/n!” Seconds later, Shawn began running after you. You were running into the house, through the front door and out in the street. 

“Shawn! Put the hose down!” He took a detour in the garage for the hose, turning it on and pointing the nozzle towards you. 

“That is something I cannot do,” he says with a laugh and applies pressure to the trigger. Water beams out of the nozzle, engulfing you in ice cold water. You release many screams in attempt of hoping he might stop. After spraying you for another solid minute or two, he sets it down and makes his way to you. 

“I guess I deserved that babe,” you said. Shawn nodded in agreement and wrapped his arms around your waist. 

“Thanks for watching Aaliyah, y/n. I’ll make sure I am awake when I invite you over next time. I love you,” he says while planting a kiss on your soft lips. You and Shawn continue to kiss in the driveway, covered in water from head to toe.

--- Shawn's POV ---

I look down at my phone, as the ding becomes louder and doesn't stop the sound. I notice that there is a phone call, but the tears in my eyes blur the name of the caller. I answer anyway, forcing the tears back in hopes of staying strong.

Matt: "Hey man, how are you holding up? We are on our way right now!"

Shawn: "I'm nervous for her. I feel like this could have been prevented."

Matt: "I understand that feeling. Don't blame yourself for this Shawn, Mackenzie wouldn't want you to do that to yourself."

Shawn: "I know. I tried to get all the glass out of her." I can't fight back the tears any longer, as my breathing becomes heavier.

Matt: "We are just pulling up to the hospital. She will be fine!"

I see Matt, the Jacks, and Nash run through the automatic doors of the hospital. They rush over to me and we spend the next hour and a half talking about random topics. I try to be present in the conversations but my mind is only on Mackenzie. I sip from the lukewarm coffee cup as a nurse approaches me and the guys.

The nurse tells us, "Mackenzie is out of surgery and should be waking up soon. She needed to have 24 stitches in her leg, and 10 on her lower back. You may go visit her now if you would like. She is in room 589."

I have never ran quicker in my entire life. I couldn't wait for the guys, so I left them behind. I needed to see her. I entered the hospital room and saw her smiling while watching reruns of Friends.

"Hi sweetie" I say while placing a kiss on her hand. "How are you feeling? Do the stitches hurt at all? I am so sorry that this happened! I should have been awake and I could have prevented the glasses from falling on you. Babe I was so scared that something really hurt you. I couldn't live with myself if something terrible happened! I love you so much." I continue to ramble on for a bout three more minutes, just looking into her beautiful brown eyes.

She sits up and smiles "I love you too Shawn."

I didn't even realize that I had told her those three words, but I felt them in my heart and I knew that I meant it. I did love this girl. For knowing her in a week, I grew very fond of this young lady. I couldn't wait to get her out of this bed and unhooked from the wires, so I could take her home.

"Shawn, do not blame yourself for this! I promise you that I am fine! The stitches do not hurt, thanks to the powerful medicine the doctors prescribed for me," she says with the most beautiful and natural laugh.

---- Mackenzie's POV ----

I woke up from the anesthesia and I could feel the pain of the stitches. The one in my leg really hurt like hell. I wondered where I was and mostly where Shawn was. I kept asking for him, but the nurses just told me the same exact thing. Once you are in your room, I will send him up for you. I hated hearing that. I don't care, I needed to see him now.

Shortly after I continued to pest the nurses to let me see my boyfriend, I was guided into a room. I was the only patient in there, and it was freezing cold. He came running through the door and all I could do was smile. I was already smiling at the show because Joey put Chandler in the box during Thanksgiving. I could sit and watch Friends all day. Like I said, I was already smiling from the show, but seeing Shawn enter the room out of breath, changed the reason for my smile.

He continued to apologize that I was in here, told me that he should be in my place instead. I could tell just through his eyes, how sorry he was. I reassured him that I was fine and I don't blame him for anything. Nothing worked.

I was finally discharged from the hospital and I also had a hefty bill to pay. I look at the piece of paper and sigh, leaning my head back. There was no way I would be able to find $17,000. Shawn looks at me, reaches in his pocket to reveal a slim black wallet. He dug out a plastic rectangle with his name on it. He was not about to pay my hospital bill with his credit card. He doesn't need to do this!

"Shawn. You do not have to pay this! I can figure out the money, but don't feel the need you have to pay the bill for me!" I try to convince him as I put my hand on top of his wallet.

"Mackenzie, I want to do this. I love you and there's nothing I wouldn't do. I am going to pay this for you, not because I think I have to or that its going to make me have a clear conscience. I simply want to do this because I am in love with you. It makes me happy baby." He says and kisses me softly. I just nod in agreement, knowing I will never win this battle.

Later at home, I was watching more reruns of Friends while Shawn finished cleaning up the glass. He insisted that he cleaned it. I wouldn't argue with that, so I let him be.

knock, knock, knock!

"Coming!" I told the person on the opposite side of my door. I reached my hand out and placed it on the cool handle, slowly turning it. The door creaked open as it revealed a boy standing a few feet away.

"What do you need Cameron?" I tried to say this with a welcoming tone but I don't think it came out like that.

He walked to me and looked down. "I'm so sorry for being an ass to you and Shawn. I am so happy that you have each other and everything that I said was not true. I let my selfishness get in the way of our friendship and I was hoping that you would forgive me."

"Well of course I forgive you! You're still my friend! Just know, if you try anything on me... my boyfriend will beat you up." I laugh but I meant every word. I look back to the kitchen, "Shawn! Cam is here!"

Shawn approaches the door quickly and determined. "What are you doing her Cameron!?"

Sorry this wasn't very good, but I wanted to get one out for you all to read!!

BANG!!! BANG!!! BANG!!!

I woke up to the obnoxious clatter that was originating from my front door. I groan and look over at my phone that was buzzing and lighting up like fireworks.

shit

I completely forgot that I promised the boys I would tell them how everything happened with Shawn and I. Stumbling out of my bed, prolonging the time thatI can remain under the covers. I grab a blanket from the stack of blankets that are creating a mountain taller than any you would find in the Smokies. Wrapping myself in the warmth of cotton, I slide my feet into the cat slippers and make my way to the front door.

BANG!!! BANG!!! BANG!!!

Again with the loud noise! I feared that they might break down the door if the banging would continue. "I'm coming" I shout as I close in the final stretch of the front hallway. I open the door as I am bombarded with men. First was Shawn. He embraced me in a hug and kissed my lips quickly. "I was worried that something happened to you babe. It's been like five hours since you went to nap. Just wanted to check if everything was fine." I nod and kiss Shawn back, assuring him that everything is fine, now that he is here.

Nash was next. "Hey, don't forget about all of us Mack!" he said as Gilinsky pushed his way through the door. "We all wanted to congratulate you and Shawn on your relationship. You picked a great guy!" said Jack G. Everyone else followed in the house until I realized who was missing.

Shawn sat next to me on the couch. When I looked out to the other men that filled my living room, I noticed Cameron was not there. Nash, Hayes, Jack G and J, Matt, Carter, Aaron, and Taylor. It would make sense that Cameron would not come over to congratulate Shawn and I. The boys all crowded around Shawn and I, as I held the large hand of the man next to me. I thought it was hilarious how the boys brought pizza over with them. It's like they knew exactly what I needed after I woke up from my nap.

Shawn was telling the guys how he made the first move and how it was the best move he has ever made, because it gave him me. Seriously, my heart is full with happiness right now. I can't stop thinking about how Cameron acted to the news that I was dating Shawn. Doesn't he care about my happiness? If he really did like me, he wouldn't be pissed off and hate me for wanting to be with Shawn. These thoughts begin to consume me, right as the Jacks snap me back to reality.

Gilinsky asks me, "Could Mads come over? She really wants to meet you Mack, and I think she wants to have a friend who is not a guy in this group."  All I could do was respond with laughter, nodding my head to his question. I notice how he immediately texted her the address after he received the nod of approval. It would be nice to have a friend that is not one of the guys. I could already tell that Madison and I would be good friends.

About 30 minutes later, Madison had arrived and we began watching a movie. The boys have thumb wrestling wars to decide the movie. Even though they are young adults, they can switch their personalities to a five year old in an instant.

I went to the kitchen to make some popcorn with Madison. She is so beautiful and very down to earth. She also is completely in love with Jack. I mean they act as if they were a married couple. While I was trying to win the game of hide and seek that my air popper was playing, Madison had asked the boys if they wanted anything to drink. She was now making smoothies for thirty people, because there are nine guys in this house who eat as if they were eating for ten people each.

I rest on the counter as the kernels were popping in the air popper, scrolling through Facebook. Shawn approaches me, placing his hands around my lower back. "How are you doing babe?" he asked me.

"I'm good babe, just realizing that I have made a boat load of popcorn. I had to put the popped popcorn in garbage bags because there was too much," I said. All Shawn could do was laugh and just like that he brought the bags of popcorn to the guys.

The movie had ended and everyone was beyond tired. Amazingly, all of the popcorn had been consumed, most likely from Matt and Shawn. I have no idea how they ate so much popcorn. Everyone had said their goodbyes and left, everyone except for Shawn. He was asleep on the couch, so I just let him be. I had cleaned the entire house, since I still had boxes to unpack even though I moved in six months ago.

Accidentally, I was putting cups away and five glass cups fell, causing it to shatter into shards across the kitchen floor. I had also fallen off the counter, since I climb on them to put away dishes since I am so short. Shawn woke up and immediately ran to see what happened, and if I was okay. Glass covered the entire kitchen floor. I had landed on some of the shards causing blood to escape my body.

He shouted, running over towards me to pick me up. "Mackenzie! Sweetie are you alright?! Shhhh I've got you. We will clean up the glass later, once we fix these cuts." A kiss is planted on my forehead as he places me on the counter in the bathroom. He finds the first aid kit under the sink and begins to work.

"Shawn, that hurts way too much!" I tell him, as I grip tighter on his arm. One of the pieces of glass is deep in my skin, which makes it thirty times more painful to get it out.

Shawn sighs and reaches for the phone in his pocket, texts someone and puts it away. "Babe, lets get you to the hospital so they can get the rest of the glass out."

I nod, knowing that he will ignore anything I say to prevent me from admitting into the hospital. I hate hospitals and I honestly did not need to go there. Shawn disagreed with me, carrying me out to his car. The drive to the hospital felt terribly long. Longer than a Star Wars movie. I suddenly became exhausted and weak.

Shawn gives the road his full attention, while keeping his hand on my stomach. I know that I lot blood, but I don't know why he needed to cover the wound. It wasn't actively bleeding still. The only thing that I was sure of, was that I wanted sleep right now. Shortly after noticing Shawn's hand on the wound, I was asleep. He filled out all the paperwork and we went our separate ways from the waiting room.

---- Shawn's POV ----

I sat in the chair that was located in the freezing cold waiting room. I was exhausted from not having adequate sleep the past few nights. Maybe that is why I fell asleep so quickly at Mackenzie's place. All I knew is that I need to see her, to make sure that my baby is not in pain anymore, that her beautiful smile is on her face.

I can't believe that she is injured this badly from a few glasses breaking. I guess she did take a fall from the counter. I should have been awake to help her with the dishes. I feel terrible that Mackenzie is in pain. It should be me, instead of her. All I want to do is see her. I hate waiting for her in this stuffy and cold waiting room. The nurse won't tell me what is going on right now, since Mackenzie has only been back there for the past five minutes. I hated being in hospitals. My body tells me to sleep while my brain tells me to remain awake and my heart tells me I am in love with her.

My thoughts were interrupted by the ding from my iPhone. I look down at the screen.

/// end ///

I hope you are all enjoying the book so far! <3 Let me know what your favorite part is and why! Comment below on what you think will be on the iPhone screen!! Will Mackenzie be released from the hospital soon?

four

--- Shawn's POV---

"Sorry we are a little late Andrew," I say as I give Andrew, my manager, a hug. "This is the wonderful and talented Mackenzie!" Her face turns a soft rosy pink color as she looks down and blushes. It's amazing that I have that effect on her. "Mackenzie, this is my manager Andrew. He's really awesome and easy to get along with." She nods and looks at Andrew.

"It's very nice to meet you Andrew. Shawn has told me a lot of great things about you." She says, as her tiny hand extends towards Andrew for a handshake.

After we become acquainted, we settle in by ordering drinks. We all three discussed who was going to pay for the drinks. Mackenzie really pushed for herself, while I pushed for my manager to pay. Majority won, with a vote of 2 - 1.

Andrew turns his focus to the briefcase that resided next to his chair, on the floor. I ran my hand over Mack's leg and kissed her hand. She is entirely calm. Nerves and discomfort are nowhere to be seen when you look at Mackenzie. I remember how nervous I was to meet Andrew when I first started. I just didn't think that I was good enough to be considered 'talented'.

Mackenzie sang her version of Love Yourself by Justin Bieber and it was honestly, even better than the original. (No hate towards the Biebs or anything!!)

Andrew paid for the bill, discussed label contracts and what she would be signing herself into. Again, a typical person would be nervous during this. Mackenzie was completely different. The way she handled these situations with poise and confidence was extremely attractive.

After Mackenzie signed the papers and exchanged numbers and information with Andrew, we suddenly were in the car. Headed home, Mack talked about the meeting. She was energetic and passionate about everything, it was hard to resist her right then and there. I figured I should let her have some time to herself, so I dropped her off at her door. I softly place my lips on her forehead, then on her lips. "I'll see you later, I promise" and I walked back to my car.

--- Mackenzie's POV ---

Finally home after a fantastic morning and all I want to do is sleep. I change out of my clothes, into something far more comfortable and nap-worthy. After that, I searched for makeup removing wipes in my bathroom. I have always struggled with acne, so if I don't have to wear makeup, I won't.

I search for my phone in my purse and then lay on my bed, while I scroll through Instagram. I decide to post a picture from today.

three

Last night was a wreck. I couldn't fall asleep at all and if I did find a way to count sheep, it wasn't for long until I came back to reality. The room was dark and the morning sun was peeking it's way to illuminate the room through the corner of the curtain.

The doorbell rings

I thought to myself, shit. I am still in bed and Shawn is here! My heart begins to race and I get up, making the bed quickly and taking my hair up into a messy ponytail. I make my way down the steps, still in the white button up shirt that I wear to bed.

The room lights up from the smile that appears on his face and mine, when our eyes meet. Shawn was very tall, muscular, handsome, tall (really, he is!) and perfect. He wore gray jeans, that I swore were sweatpants (although he disagreed every time) and a black plaid button up shirt that complimented his figure.

I look up at him, inviting the tall handsome man in my home. "I just woke up, I am so sorry. I can go change if you want me to!" and sadness takes over his entire body. Shawn grabs my hand and whispers "Don't, you look beautiful" as chills are sent down my spine.

I remain silent and nod as he kisses my cheek. "It's good to finally meet you Mackenzie" and I return a smile at him.

"So where are the pancakes, Mack?" and I can't help but melt inside when Shawn says Mack. Get yourself together Mackenzie. Don't be so obvious that you like him!

"You can help me make it! I was waiting for you," and Shawn's large hands take mine and walks to the kitchen. Shawn says, "Lets do this then, I'm starving!"

---- Shawn's POV ----

Damn. I feel so bad that I woke her up but at the same time I am extremely excited I did because I can't keep my eyes off her. She is in just a t-shirt. It barely covers her. I try to keep my cool, but inside I am a wreck. We just met, I can't feel this way so soon.... Can I?

We find our way to the kitchen and begin making pancakes. I accidentally put flour on her face, and she kindly returned the favor. We end up laughing, throwing more white powder at each other. The way she laughs is mesmerizing.

Ten minutes later, the pancakes are finished and we begin to eat.

Goodness, the pancakes taste amazing! I have never eaten more perfect pancakes before! I learn about her, what she likes and dislikes -- even her fears. Time continues to pass by, while we remain in conversation. I feel like I have travelled to heaven and I honestly, never want to leave.

---- Mackenzie's POV ----

I am so glad that I asked him to come earlier for breakfast. I love learning everything about Shawn. We realized that there is still a mess in the kitchen, so we both move our conversation to the kitchen and begin to clean up.

I rinse off the dishes and put them in the dishwasher. Shawn places the pan in the sink, and I draw a heart with the dish soap on the pan, before rinsing it off with warm water.

"Thank you for inviting me over for breakfast. It was delicious!" he says, while he places a hand on my waist. I continue washing the pan and scrubbing it, trying to push down all the feelings that were sent through my body when his hand met my waist.

I turn to face him, smiling and saying "You are very welcome. It was my pleasure! I had a great time just talking to you!"

He smiles like a five year old child does, when they open a present on Christmas Day.

"Want to know something?" I ask and he moves in closer to me.

I swallow my nerves and other emotions that are fighting for dominance in my body.

"When the guys asked me who I thought was the hottest...."

Shawn moves even closer, placing both hands on my waist. He is looking down at me and I can feel his warm breath on my neck.

"My answer is you"

I stare at him, waiting for his reaction to the four words that I just said.

His brown eyes are melting my heart, his smile becomes closer to mine. He looks me up and down as his breath is now on my face. His soft lips land on my cheek and then they escape, leaving my cheek cold and lonely. One of the hands on my waist find their way up my back and to my face. He holds my cheek in his hand, both of our chests rising and falling in the same beat.

This can't be happening

Shit

Its happening

You can't stop now.

His lips lightly graze over mine, causing me to forget the feelings I kept trying to suppress. I couldn't hold back, so I move my hand around his neck as I return the gesture of kissing him back. My heart is beating at an unknown pace. Our lips fit perfectly together, working as a team to accomplish the same goal. Shawn backs me up into the corner of the cabinets, making any oxygen between our bodies fade away. His lips pull back from mine and his expression is not what I was hoping...

"Shawn.. I'm sorry" I look down and say, because his face says it all. He looks upset, like he just committed a crime.

"Shhhh. Don't be, that was perfect. It's just... your coffee spilled on me when we were kissing." he says while realize the mug that was full, held barely any coffee. He laughed and kissed me again. "Babe please don't feel bad. I have another shirt in my car to change into.

I nod, feeling bad that I accidentally burned him. I shivered at the air now finding it's way back between our bodies as he pulled away from me. The kitchen was now clean, all that was left to do was to change.

I find my way to my bedroom, discarding the white shirt to the dirty laundry basket in the closet. Looking for something to wear, I hear his voice again. "Mack?" and I respond by shouting to come upstairs. I do however, forget that I am only in a bra and underwear. I soon realize my attire when Shawn stands in the doorway of my bedroom.

"Damn" is all he says, watching me.

I pull my skinny jeans and a red crop top on. "How does this look?"

"Perfect" as he trades the coffee stained shirt for a solid black sweater. I caught a glimpse of his toned body, letting the smile on my face let  him know what I saw. Somehow, our bodies find a way to meet like magnets, and the morning activities were resumed. This time, without the coffee.

Shawn reaches for his phone from his front pocket, realizing that his manager is at the cafe. "Babe, we have to go! Its 9:40 and my manager is already there!"

I nod, making sure that I turn lights off and take my purse with me out the door. After I lock the house up, he opens the door for me.

I make sure I tell him thank you for opening the door for me, with a sincere smile and a gentle peck of his lips.

The entire car ride, he make sure we remained in physical contact with each other. Planting kisses on me during red lights, rubbing my leg while he drove, held my hand or put my hand on his leg. Whatever it was, our bodies met each other.

He pulls up to the cafe and kisses my hand, whispers "make sure you stay close to me"

I nod, wondering why. It's just a cafe. Not like we are in the middle of the fireworks show at Disneyland....

His tall figure opens my door, surrounded by flashing lights of cameras and shouting voices. I make sure that I remain close to Shawn as he guides me into the cafe, where the door that shut behind me is now the barrier between calm and chaos.

I fell asleep faster than before! I really must have been exhausted! All nine of my new best friends (well eight depending on if Cameron is being an ass). I napped for about three hours when I was rudely awoken by the sound of my iPhone crashing to the floor as it buzzed off of my nightstand.

I answer the phone call.

"Hello? Mackenzie?!?! How the hell do you know all the guys from MAGCON!? They've all posted about you and you are on TMZ right now! Seriously, where have you been and what have you been doing?!" my friend Stephanie shouts out, basically screaming at the top of her lungs.

"Calm down Steph! I doubt---" I turn the television on to TMZ and pull up the website on my mac. I couldn't talk and I just remained frozen staring at the screens, listening to the host say my name multiple times.

I look down at my mac, as a message from Shawn now appearing from the top right of the screen. This isn't part of the group chat, it was an individual message. Hmm..

Shawn😍🎙: Good news! My manager wants to meet you and have you sing for him! I think he wants to sign you!

Mackenzie: NO WAY! Really Shawn!? Did you do this for me?!

Shawn😍🎙: Of course! You're crazy talented Mackenzie, don't hide it!

Mackenzie: When does he want to meet me, and will you be there?

Shawn😍🎙: Tomorrow. 10am at the cafe near Santa Monica. Of course I'll be there! I am going to pick you up at your house. Casual dress (you look beautiful in anything) and send me your address, I'll pick you up at 9:15am.

Mackenzie: 8761 Appian Way Los Angeles, CA 90046 🏠 Thanks so much Shawn!!

Shawn😍🎙: Don't thank me. You deserve it. I'll see you tomorrow morning love.

Mackenzie: Would you want to have breakfast before we leave? You can just come earlier. I'll make pancakes! 🥞🥛🍽

Shawn😍🎙: I'd love to! When would you like me to be there?

Mackenzie: 8am?

Shawn😍🎙: See you then Kenz! 😘❤️

My friends decided to drag me out of my house on a Friday night. It was a girls night, as they would say. We decided to go to the carnival that recently came to town, which I was just excited to eat some popcorn. I would rather be at home, watching re-runs of Parks and Recreation on Netflix.

"Mack, your phone keeps buzzing! Can you please do something with it? It's driving me crazy!" and my friend Stephanie takes my phone out of her bag.

We decided to put all of our phones in one bag, in order to not have a screens filled night in hopes of actually living in the moment and making actual memories.

I take my iPhone that is currently buzzing and dinging every ten seconds. What the heck?

Unknown: WAY TO F**KING GO MAN!

Unknown: ^^^ same bro.

Unknown: Dumb af!

Unknown: Stop yelling at me! Is it too late to say sorry?

Unknown: Can you for once actually do something right?

Unknown: I can, but its not my fault that my fingers are bigger than the letters on my keyboard.

Mack: Do you want me to leave the group? I would hate to be the cause of any arguments!

Unknown: You don't have to! We just like giving Shawn a hard time!

Unknown: Hey guys, what did I miss??

Unknown: Shawn added the wrong number to our group chat!

Mack: Well what are your names? Mine is Mackenzie, but people call me Mack.

Unknown: Shawn

Unknown: Jack, you can call me G or Gilinksy

Unknown: Cameron

Unknown: Nash

Unknown: I'm the other Jack, but you can call me Johnson

Unknown: Taylor

Unknown: Carter

Unknown: Aaron

Unknown: Matt

Unknown: Can you send us a picture of you, Mack?

Shawn: YES! Love you too princess

Cameron: dude, she's mine!

Nash: CAM! You don't get to call dibs!

Shawn: Whatever!

Mack: Wait, I looked you up.

Aaron: and...... what do you think Mack?

Taylor: I don't think she is a fan. She would have freaked out by now

Hayes: ^^^ agreed! We are from Magcon, so thats the reason for all the professional looking images.

Mack: Correct, I am not a fan but damn, you are all fine!

I become aware that I have been on my phone texting these guys for the past ten minutes with my friends next to me. I realize that tonight was a screens free night, so I had to let the boys know I would talk to them later.

Mack: I have to go now. I loved talking to all of you! Talk later! xoxo

Aaron: Bye beautiful 👋🏼

Shawn: Talk to you later princess 👑

Cameron: Bye babe 😘😉😍

Taylor: 🤦🏽‍♂️ Wow Cameron. and bye Mack!

Hayes: See you later!!

Nash: Have fun!!

Carter: 👋🏼🙂

Johnson: Adios!

Gilinsky: Talk to you later, alligator. 🐊

I couldn't help but smile to myself the rest of the night because I couldn't get those nine faces out of my head. There was something about Cameron that stood out to me, that makes me get butterflies in my stomach.
