"You what!" Sandy asked bewildered while she wason the phone.
"I want to hang out with Shawn tomorrow." Pashmina confirmed.
"So like you want me to tell him?" Sandy asked.
"Yes, please. Tell him to meet me at the park tomorrow."
"Okay..." Sandy wasn't too sure of the idea.
The next day, Pashmina was so excited. She finally gets to spend personal time with Green! She was looking forward to it. Pashmina made sure her outfit, her hair and everything was fine and in place. She looked perfect with her blue tank top and black skirt. She was ready!
She walked out of her door and locked it. Before she started to walk, she took a deep breath and walked casually towards the park. When she had finally arrived at the park, she saw Shawn leaning against a tree, waiting for her. He caught sight of her and started to walk towards her.
"You look, um." He looked uncomfortable saying it, "Great."
Pashmina blushed, "Thanks."
"So, you wanted to…" He paused, "Meet?"
"Yeah, to spend some quality time with you." Pashmina said, realizing his nervous side, "Boy, is heever nervous. "Pashmina thought to herself, "How sweet!"
"Okay, so why don't we um, go sit down." Shawn suggested politely as he went to find a bench.
"Right behind you!" Pashmina followed behind.
After a few seconds, they seated themselves silently on a bench. Pashmina felt so awkward. "Why isn't he flirting with me?" Pashmina thought to herself as she stared at him.
"Shawn." She started, "Are you alright?"
Shawn glanced at her, "Yes, Im fine. Why do you ask?"
"Um," Pashmina looked away shyly, "I don't know, you just don'tseem like yourself."
Shawn smiled, "You're right, I'm sorry."
Pashmina shook her head, "No, it's nothing… really." Pashmina sat sitting still, eyes set on the ground, "Shawn… I have a question for you."
"Hm?"
"You told me before... that you liked someone, right?" Pashmina asked timidly
Shawn leaned back, "Yes…"
Pashmina's face flushed with pure red, " Who- who is she?"
Shawn sighed a deep sigh, "Its weird for me to tell you this, because I didn't even mention anything to Sandy – my own cousin." Pashmina stayed silent, and Shawn decided to continue, "But I guess I should tell you since you wanted to meet and spend somequality time together." He stared at Pashmina, who was still starring at the ground silently, "I like someone... and you know thissomeone very well."
Pashmina raised her head to stare at him, "He's going to say it…"
"This is all so embarrassing." Shawn slowly turned red.
"It's okay, you can tell me. " Pashmina encouraged.
"If you must know. I've been here for a couple of weeks and I've gotten to know most of you quite well, but only one stood out to me." Shawn elaborated as Pashmina become more red and nervous, "She's just so incredible!"
"Is she really?" Pashmina asked silently.
"Si, " Shawn replied, "She is. Her French accent just makes her extra cute."
Pashmina froze and her face seemed stoned, "Fr-fr-french accent? So- so, that means you like Bijou…?"
"Yeah.." Shawn realized her facial expression, "Pashmina you look sick, are you okay?"
Pashmina stood up and grabbed her things, "I'm sorry, I've made a mistake for calling you here." She walked off trying to hold in all her sorrow.
"Wait! Pashmina!" Shawn stood up, but was too late, Pashmina had already ran off towards the beach. Shawn sat back down and didn't understand what just happened. Then, it just clicked him, "Pashmina thought it was ME? She thought GREEN was ME!" Shawn stared down Pashmina's direction, "That explains so much!"
Shawn quickly ran the opposite direction and headed home. He opened the front door, ran upstairs panting and opened Stan'sroom door,in exhaustion.
"Shawn…" Stan stared at him speechlessly with surprise.
