CALI EVANS POV:

"Want to come to mine for a bit?" I chirp Shawn as he begins to drive me home.

Ever since that phone call with his mother, he had been really, really upset and I was trying to cheer him up.

"Sure" He smiled over at me, his eyes brightening slightly.

"Thanks for trying to cheer me up. You don't have to" He says and I roll my eyes.

"You're not welcome" I say and he rolled his eyes but smiled.

"Back to that are we, love?" he asked, on about when we were younger and I always said it. The nickname makes my heart skip a beat.

"Yep" I smile before getting out of the car. Shawn gets out too and we both walk into mine.

"Cali" Candi smiled and wrapped her arms around my legs.

"Hello little one" I say, lifting her up.

"How is my big girl?" I ask and she giggled.

"I'm good!" She chirps. "Shawn!" She shouts before she dives on him. I chuckle.

"Hello cutie" he says, tapping her nose.

I feel my heart warm at the both of them.

We make our way to my room and I lay down on my bed while Shawn sits on my chair.

"So, that party?" He says with a smirk yet his eyes were twinkling with happiness.

I groan and bury my face in my hands.

I feel Shawn is closer to me as I remove my hands.

"Hello, beautiful" he says once I look up at him.

I feel my cheeks heat up as I let out a nervous laugh.

"What about the party?" I ask, my cheeks felt like they were on fire.

"What was your favourite bit?" He asked and I shrugged.

"I don't know. I liked it all'' I say, remembering how Shawn and I were cuddled up for the whole night.

"I loved it"

I chuckle and he smiled at me.

"There is another party tonight, want to go?" He asked and I thought about it.

Danny and Alec told me that Candi a as staying at her friends and they were staying with Connor and his friend.

"Sure" I shrug.

"Is it Ty's by any chance?" I ask, remembering how he was throwing a party tonight.

He party's are always crazy.

"Yeah, his mother and father are out of town" he says and I nod, picking up my phone.

Leah: Party tonight? Cam said he was going to ask if you wanted to go. Don't get too drunk like last time :p

Love ya. Xx

I chuckled at her message making Shawn raise a brow.

"Leah just asked me to a party and told me not to get too drunk" I say with a chuckle.

To Leah: is it Ty's party? I like getting drunk but you were drunk too;)

Love ya too. Xx

Shawn sat at the edge of my bed and smiled at me.

"Remember when I first came into your room" he shakes his head with a laugh yet his eyes lit up.

"Yeah, you began to tickle me and then" I'm cut off when I remember what happened.

"So, this is my room!" I smile, opening my door and pushing him in.

"Can you not?" He asked yet he had a smile on his face. He looked around my room, curious.

"I can't believe we've been best friends for 4 years and this is the first time you let me see your room" he says with a chuckle. "But I love it." He adds, turning around with a huge smile.

"I saw your room 6 months into the friendship" I point out with a chuckle and he huffed.

"You need to pay for that" he says, his lips curling into a cute pout.

Before I know it, Shawn has pushed me back onto my bed and is tickling me.

"Shawn!" I shout, erupting into giggles.

"Cali" he breathes, looking down at me.

I smiled up at him and his gaze drops to my lips.

He pressed his lips against me and I smile against his lips, feeling fireworks and sparks.

He pulled away before pressing his lips against mine, a little harder this time.

Our lips moved in sync and then it hit me.

I lost my first kiss.

Not only that, but to my best friend. And I like it way too much.

"Cal?" Shawn asked, a small smile on his lips.

"What?" I ask, removing my gaze from his lips.

I remember kissing him. It was better than anything ever.

His lips titled as he noticed me staring at his lips but said nothing.

"Want to get some dinner?" He blurts, his eyes going wide.

"Sure" I say with a smile.

"But first I need to get ready and shower" I say and he nods.

"Yeah, same" he says and i smile.

"I'll pick you up in half an hour" he smiled and I nodded before seeing him out.

I rush upstairs and chuck my dress off before showering quickly, washing my hair too.

I turn off the shower and wrap a towel around me to begin to brush my teeth before taking off my make up from last night.

I quickly dried myself before choosing out some black ripped jeans and a grey long sleeved shirt that had cut outs in the shoulders.

I begin to dry my hair before straightening it and starting in my makeup, seeing as I got 10 minutes left.

I apply a small layer of foundation and then powder before doing some winged eyeliner, mascara and added a light pink lipstick. I then put on some black wedge heels before grabbing my phone and purse then putting it in my bag.

I opened the door and came face to face with Shawn.

"Hey!" I smile, putting a little bit of distance between us.

Don't get me wrong, I loved being close to him but I'd end up kissing him.

"Hi" he grinned, seeming a little bit breathless.

"Lets get going, shall we?" He asked, taking my hand.

He opened the door for me.

"Thank you" I smile and he smiled back before jogging around to his side.

To say he looked good would be underestimated. He looked amazing, wearing some black jeans with a red and black checkered shirt.

"Where are we going?" I ask and he smiled.

"Guess" he smiled and I thought for a while.

"McDonald's?" I ask, remembering how much he loves it.

"No"

"It's Burger King, right?"

"No"

"Ooh, Subway?"

"No"

"Um, what about Tillie's?" I ask, remembering that when we were 15, he claimed it to be 'our' space.

He smiled and I squealed.

"I haven't been there in soooo long" I say and he smiled.

"Me either" he said with a smile as we arrived outside.

He opened the door for me and I immediately remembered why I fell in love with this place.

It had a dark wooden floor with many tables that had red and white cloths over them. The room was lit but was still quite dark. There was a smell of cookies and it seemed just how I remembered it.

Shawn and I sat down as I looked at the menu.

Fish and chips? No

Chicken nuggets and chips? Tempting but no

Steak and chips? No

Cheeseburger and chips? Yeah.

I put the menu down and stand up to make my order.

"Sit down, I'll get it" Shawn says, his voice firm.

"No, it's okay-" but I'm cut off.

"Seriously, Cali. Sit down and I'll get it for you" he suggests, getting up.

I take out my purse and gave him £20, since that was the only notes I had on me.

"Cheeseburger and chips with a strawberry and peach iced tea" I smile.

"Okay" he says but before walking away, drops the money I have him back on the table.

"I'll pay" he whispers quietly, smiling at me before going into the line.

I frown at him and see him smiling at me.

Fine, but I'm buying desserts.

He orders and then comes back to sit down and we begin to talk.

"Shawn?" I hear someone question, and I look to see Cameron.

I hear Shawn quietly groan before he turns to him.

"Hi Cameron" he says and smiled.

"What you doing here?" Shawn asked and Cameron shrugged.

"Me and the guys are sat over there" he says, pointing to a table that wasn't far from ours.

I see Caspar and Joe waving at us.

"You going to Tys party?" He asked and Cameron nodded.

"Yeah, I'm getting Leah on the way" he says and Shawn nods.

SHAWN MYERS POV:

"Awesome, well I will see you tonight?" I ask, wanting to get rid of him.

Don't get me wrong, he is my best friend but that also means he will embarrass me as much as he can, especially around Cali.

"Sure, bye man, bye Cal" he says before jogging back over.

"Bye Cam!" Cali says happily before our food comes.

I ordered myself the same as Cali only I got a banana milkshake.

"So, what have you been up to the past few years?" She asked, taking a sip of her iced tea.

"Not a lot really" I say, "I met Cameron, Caspar and Joe" I state and watched as she nodded at me, smiling a little. "What about you?" I ask and she smiled.

"Well, I got into cheer leading, met Leah and yeah, that's about it" She smiled, her eyes lighting up at the mention of cheer leading.

"What about at home?" I ask but immediately regret it when I see the spark disappear from her eyes.

"Nothing" She forced a smile, "Just got abandoned. It's okay though, I'm used to it" She shrugs and I want to hug her but I restrain myself.

"Well, I'm here if you need me, okay?" I ask, slipping my hand into hers.

"Thank you, same goes for you too, you know?" She says, squeezing my hand.

"Anytime and I know"
