A/N: Woot! New story= FTW I've always loved those "5 times" stories, so I decided to do one myself! This timeline is slightly off, since Shawn did this whole vampire drinking thing in "Shawn 2.0" BEFORE Declan came... but whatever. Pretend Declan came before the drinking, or maybe that he repeated that night after Juliet started dating Declan. ENJOY!

Oh yes-

Warning: Spoilers for Shawn 2.0. Kinda.


1.

It was getting dark outside as Shawn rode his motorcycle to the nearest convenience store. The wind rushed by, blocking out all but the loudest of sounds.

He pulled into the parking lot, parked. When he walked out of the store, it was with a variety of alcoholic drinks and some CD books.

He spent the night drinking and listening to the tales of a vampire doctor.

Now, Shawn was not the most serious drinker. He rarely got wasted or drank until he blacked out.

Which, of course, begged the question- why was he now? Of all the possible reasons, there was really one simple answer.

Juliet.

Declan had rolled into town. He was clever, nice, observant. Rich. Everything a girl could want in a guy.

Of course, it wasn't exactly surprising that she may be interested.

But something had always seemed... untouchable with Shawn and Juliet's relationship. Even with Abigail, Scott, and a billion other people that they flirted with, Shawn had always subconsciously felt that they would somehow end up together.

Until Declan, of course. He came, wooing Juliet, making their relationship somehow seem slightly permanent, undermining Shawn all along the way.

However, Shawn allowed these thoughts to drift into the back of his head as he prepared yet another cocktail.
