Jacob’s POV
Shawn’s concert was amazing, and I literally loved every second of it. But all good things come to an end, and I’m gonna have to go back home soon. After the concert, Michele and I went back to the green room while Shawn went somewhere to take a shower inside the stadium.
I returned to laying down on the couch I was used too, and I tried to comprehend my whole day today.
Today so far, I passed out whilst meeting Shawn, I broke down in front of Shawn, I befriended Shawn, and I watched Shawn’s concert from backstage. As you can see, they all have to do with Shawn. Plus, this day is ending, and I will have to leave Shawn, and go back to the hell hole that is my life.
“This day has been so emotionally exhausting and I just want to sleep the night away.” I said closing my eyes.
“I know, now I need to get concert tickets for 5 Seconds of Summer, and maybe I’ll run into Ashton.” Michele said taking a muffin of the plate.
“And then I need to also meet Calum and Luke.”
“You still haven’t decided yet.” Michele responded laughing.
“They are both so perfect like I can’t choose, just like Shawn.” I replied laughing with her.
“What just like me?” Shawn walked in the room, which made me blush at the thought of him hearing me call him perfect.
“An amazing singer! Just like Luke right?” Michele answered Shawn looking at me with a smile, which I played along with her act.
“Yeah! You two are so talented, and I’m sitting here talentless.”
“No, he has way more talent and experience than me.” Shawn said looking down, and I’m not sure if it was just my mind, but I saw a slight blush on his cheeks.
“You do have a lot of talent! If you didn’t I wouldn’t be here to watch your show.” I said, trying to help him feel more confident in his singing.
“Thanks Jacob, it means a lot.” Shawn said looking at me as my phone went off.
I picked it up to see it was a DM from Jordan, but the time caught my eye and I gasped.
“Its already 9? Its like an hour drive back home!” I said starting to get up, but it wasn’t as fast as I wanted to because of my injury.
“Do you guys need a ride back? I could call an Uber for you guys.” Shawn offered, but Michele shook her head.
“No, we’re fine, we drove here in my car so we’ll be fine.” Michele answered sweetly.
“Wait here, what’s your number so we can keep in touch!” Shawn said handing me his phone, I entered my number and passed the phone to Michele and she did the same and then returning the phone.
“Well, lets go Jacob, we got a long trip in front of us.” Michele said grabbing her bag.
“Here, let me walk you guys to your car.”

“So I guess this it.” I said as I finished putting stuff inside Michele’s car.
“I guess so,” Shawn said nodding, opening his arms, which I gladly accepted.
“Thank you so much for everything today Shawn, no one has ever done this for me, not even Michele.” I said, which he responded with a laugh.
“Okay, I’m right here.” Michele said closing the car door and walking over to us. I left Shawn’s arms and gave him a smile, and Michele went to give him a hug as well, thanking him. After she pulled away we looked at each other and he smiled at me, a slight blush forming on my cheeks.
“Lets get going,” Michele said pulling out her keys from her bag, “Thanks again Shawn for everything.”
“No problem, I had fun today! It was wonderful meeting you two!” Shawn said and I looked at him once again.
“Bye Shawn, thanks so much again, I loved it.” I said, and Shawn gave me one more hug.
“No problem Jacob. Have a safe trip back!” Shawn said, after I pulled away from the hug. I smiled at him and entered the car, closing the door.
“Bye Shawn!” Michele said and waved, and backing out of her parking, and driving away from the arena. I looked back at Shawn and waved goodbye to him, an he waved back.
As Michele kept driving, I kept looking at him and he got smaller and smaller, before I could no longer see him after Michele took a right. I smiled to myself before before returning to face the forward and resting my head on the window.
“I’ll wake you up when we get home J, sleep tight.” I heard Michele say, which I gladly took her offer to sleep and I closed my eyes, and tried to sleep through the bumpy roads, which was quite a struggle but I soon fell into a dark hole of slumber.

“Jacob wake up, we’re at your house.” Michele said shaking me awake, which I did after her struggling just to get me to open my eyes.
“M’tired.” I said quietly, not getting up.
“If you don’t get up, I will push you out of this truck.” Michele said, and I let out a sigh before getting up and struggling to get control of my crutches.
“You wanna stay the night?” I offered Michele looking at her while I taking my bag out of her car, but she just shook her head.
“It’s fine, I miss my own bed and my animals. I’ll be over tomorrow,” Michele answered, which I responded with a small nod, “Good night J, tell your mom thank you for the tickets!” Michele said, and I nodded again.
“Night, see you tomorrow.” I responded, and she just smiled and pulled out of my driveway and exited my neighborhood, on her way to her house. I walked to my front door, and pulling out my key from my pocket, and unlocking my door. I walked through the door, closed and locked it to see my mom on the phone, and saw a smile on her face.
“Thank you so much! I’ll talk to you tomorrow? Jacob is here now! Goodnight.” My mom said as she pulled the phone away from her face, hanging up the call and she looked at me. “Hey Jacob! How was the concert.” She said walking up to me, kissing me on the cheek.
“It was amazing mom, thank you so much.” I said hugging her before setting my back down.
“Here go to bed Jacob, I’ll put your bag in the closet and then I’ll make you breakfast tomorrow before I go to work.” I nodded, and started to head to my room.
“Goodnight mom, love you.” I said as I entered my room.
“Night my son, love you too.”
I laid in bed, preparing to sleep once again, not caring that I was still wearing jeans. But before sleeping, I thought about my day, and how so much has happened today.
Today, I felt cared for by someone else other than my mom and Michele. I felt cared for by a male, which hasn’t happened ever since my dad died. I felt like Shawn actually cared about me, he actually wanted to talk to me and help me. But, I still feel like he is only doing it out of sympathy, but you never know. He wanted to get to know me, which was a bit hard to think of because of how boring my life is. I don’t do anything athletic, other than watch youtube, go to school and work. I used to play guitar, but my dad taught me how, and after he died, I’ve stopped playing and have never touched my guitar ever since. It is now used as decoration in my room.
It still amazes me how I still have yet to tell anyone about my dad, not even Michele. I might never be ready to tell anyone, because it still hurts me. My mom wouldn’t have to be working as hard and maybe, I would still be my young and care free self.
But that is far from the truth sadly.
I quickly looked at my bed table and picked up a picture frame of a family photo taken when my dad was still alive.
It was us at Universal Studios, and we all looked so happy, we looked liked a family.
I smiled at the memory of my mom, dad and I being happy spending time together, back to when my life wasn’t as hectic.
I set the photo back down and looked up to the ceiling, wiping a tear the was sliding down my face.
“I miss you dad.”
