Imagine Shawn being worried that you weren't going to make it before he went on stage......

-----Shawn's P.O.V

"She is on her way, Shawn." My dad restated

"There is a lot of people out there, I am freaking out right now." I huffed out as I took a seat on the chair in my dressing room.

"You just need to relax, you're going to do great."

"Thanks, dad, but I relly need her to tell me that, she has always been there since I was like 6. I am not saying you haven't been there, you have .."

"I know Shawn, just .... breathe."

"Shawn we need you to head backstage in the next few minutes." A stage manager smiled as he popped his head into my room.

"Yeah, of course." I smiled as he walked away. "Shit, she isn't going to make it, shit, shit."

"Shawn."

"Sorry, dad."

"Just breathe."

I took a deep breath in and looked to the floor. She had a life too, and maybe I was being selfish, but I needed her to be here.

We had spent every moment together since we were about 6 years old. I always had this ability to take away her pain, where she took away my worries, my nerves. I didn't know how she did it, but yet again I didn't know how I took away her pain.

We told each other everything, details, thoughts, everything. Maybe we depended on each other a little too much, but I couldn't imagine our relationship any other way.

"Ready?" My dad asked

"I guess I have to be right? Now or never."

"You'll be fine Shawn, I promise."

I knew he was right, but in this moment, I thought, I felt like I was going to fall apart, maybe even freeze right there on stage. If any of these things happened, everything would be over.

I headed backstage, ready to perform, one of my first big performances. The nerves weren't getting better, they were getting worse.

Then I heard her, Y/N

"Mendes."

"Y/L/N Thank god you're here."

"Of course, I was waiting here. thought you would never show like maybe you backed out." She giggled

"Yeah." I laughed

"Hey, you're going to be great Shawn." She said as she touched my shoulder

And that's all I needed, the nerves were gone, I was ready, and my best friend was here.

"Good luck Mendes, love you."

"You to kid!" I said as I was walking towards the stage

"I am older than you!"

"... NO, your, not." I giggled

"SHAWN MENDES!!" The opening video announced.

I grabbed my guitar and turned to give Y/N once last smiled before making my way onto the stage.
