A/N: Trouble in paradise writing from the beach! :)

Shane POV

The day was finally here, and everyone seemed pretty excited. I was just happy that I had Noah with me, after just one afternoon of being together I was reminded of why I loved him. I felt like we had hope of one day spending the rest of our lives together, and after every fail relationship I felt like maybe this was it. I was glancing over looking at him getting us coffee, and I smiled this time, maybe it was time to say something about college to him.

"What has you smiling so much?" he asks smiling.

"You" I say. "I missed you"

"I know I did too maybe before you leave for college you could come with me on a few tour dates" he says grabbing my hand.

"I'd like that." I manage to say. I couldn't find the words to tell him about college. We promised to not keep any secrets and I couldn't keep this from him any longer. I keep telling myself to postpone it, but it was starting to make me feel like I was hiding this on purpose.

"Are you nervous for tonight?" I ask, which I knew was a stupid question he has done dozens of shows by this time, so why would tonight be any different.

"A little, Liam mentioned he was bringing his dad so that should be exciting." he says and I nod trying to not make it too obvious that I didn't forget that.

"Dont worry I'll be there cheering you on." I say leaning in to kiss him.

"I love you Shane" He says looking at me with those beautiful eyes.

"I love you too" I say hugging him trying to hold on to this secret as long as I could.

Amy POV

"Karma we are going to be late!" I yell from downstairs, I knew this would happen and now Lauren and Liam are waiting for us.

"Coming!" she says running downstairs with her shoes in her hand. I look at her and kiss her neck right next to where her anchor tattoo was.

"You look beautiful." I say kissing her again this time on the lips.

"Lets go." She says this time rushing me.

"What took you so long?" Asked Lauren annoyed.

"Sorry" Karma says. Once in the car I realized that Liam's dad was in there, I look at Lauren through the rearview mirror and she just gives me a smile.

"Karma meet my real father." Liam says as he starts to drive.

"Jerry" he says shaking Karma hand. "Nice to see you again, Amy was it?" I nod my head and quietly put my seatbelt on I never really told Karma about that day.

"Again?" Karma asks.

"Yea I met Amy at Lauren's one morning." Jerry says and Karma gives me a look. "She doesn't seem to be a morning person" he adds laughing. I chuckle to not be rude and look at the window, I knew if I looked at Karma she would give me evil eyes.

"How did you two meet?" Jerry asks trying to make conversation.

"Amy didn't tell you about me?" I knew she was getting mad and Lauren caught the tone too.

"They are dating" Lauren says trying to end the argument before it starts. After that the car ride got a silent, felt like the night was getting started, but we were pretty much not in the mood for it. Liam and Lauren seemed to be fighting about something too because the amount of tension in that car was horrible. Once we got to the school we all pretty much were just there to support Noah.

"Karma" I say getting out of the car.

"What?" she says annoyed.

"Look I didn't mean to keep this from you I just forgot." I say trying to sound genuine.

"You forgot?" she hisses.

"Woah what's going on?" Alex asks as she and Sabrina got closer to where we were.

"It was about us." says Lauren coming from behind me.

"You shouldn't get involved, this isn't your relationship." Liam says.

"What's going on?" Shane asks coming with Noah they both seemed to be confused .

"That's what I said." Alex says which at this point was kinda hard not to laugh.

"I was planning to leave with Liam and Amy didn't want me to leave which is why she came to my place to talk to Liam." Lauren says trying to clear up the air.

"And now Lauren and I are going to different schools and she doesn't even bother to talk about it." Liam says fuming.

"Guys!" I hear Noah yell which was the first time we ever heard him do that and it was scary. There was an awkward pause and no one really knew what to say. Karma gives me a look and I get closer to hold her hand.

"I'm sorry" I whisper to Karma and she gives me a warm smile. "I should have told you where I was going that morning, but I was in such a hurry and..."

"I'm sorry too." she says interrupting me. I take a look at Liam and Lauren they seem to be at a standoff and Jerry right next to them caught between the cross fire. I look over at Shane and Noah who seem to be glad that it wasn't them in the situation.

"At least we aren't fighting about school" I hear Noah tell Shane.

"That''s because I didn't get in to any." Shane blurts out and it didn't seem to be on purpose, but it didn't matter now all eyes are on him.
