Ava's POV

          I wake up to a gust of wind in my face. I turn the air vent so it's facing a passed out Shawn in the seat next to me. I look at my phone and it's 5:00. So we have about an hour and a half left of the flight. I take out my earbuds and put them and my phone back in my carry-on bag. I turn and lean back onto Shawn's shoulder.

          "Ave wake up, the plane is landing." I wake up seeing that there's a little bit of a drool stain on Shawn's shirt. "Okay thanks." I say awkwardly blushing. He looks at his shoulder and then back at me. "Don't worry about it, I don't care." He flashes a smile and he grabs his carry-on bag. We get off the plane and I check my phone, 5:30? I thought it was 5:00 an hour and a half ago! Oh wait. Time difference, gotchya. We grab our bags from the bags claim and Shawn texts Bart.

To Bart:
Hey we're here at the airport what hotel are you guys staying at?

From Bart:
We are at the Marriott on Sleek Avenue. Everyone is still asleep though. Or at least I assume it's very quiet across the hall...

To Bart:
Haha. Okay see you soon!

          "Alright Ave. I'm going to call an Uber-" he starts. "Way ahead of ya chicken brain." He laughs. "That's a new one." He says. "Yea, yea. The uber is going to be here in about 12 minutes so we can chill for a little bit." I say and laugh a little too. "Okay."

~~~

         Once we arrive at the Marriott hotel, it's 6:38. I'm still super tired. We walk through the doors and Shawn has a puzzled look on his face. He groans and face palms himself. I laugh and ask "What did you forget?" "I need to see what our room arrangements are for the 3 nights we're here." He says. I nod and he texts Bart.

To Bart:
Hey. In the lobby. What room are we in and with who?

From Bart:
Room 308, on the third floor, with Nash and Hayes.

To Bart:
Okay cool thanks.

          "So we're staying with Nash and Hayes. They're brothers." He smiles and we walk up to the front desk. "Hello. Room 308 for Shawn Mendes and Ava Klase. Two of our other roommates checked in already." Shawn says. "Alright I'll need to see some ID first." We show her our driver's licenses and she gives us two roomkeys to 308.

          We're in the elevator and I'm now nervous. "Hey it's okay I haven't met them in person either. I'm nervous too. We'll be fine." Shawn says and hugs me. Ding! The elevator opens and we walk out to the left. We walk past room 301, 303, 305, 307. I gulp. "Shawn I don't think they're going to like me and I don't know what to do. I don't have any talent. They're probably going to hate me and make fun of me." I start ranting getting upset.

           He engulfs me in a hug and I wrap my arms around his neck. I now realize that this Mendes kid means a lot to me. He knocks quietly and opens the door and we walk in. The two boys are passed out on one bed. There's one other queen size bed. I guess Shawn and I are sharing. I write on the note pad that's on the desk and say
'Hey. I'm Ava and the guy is Shawn. Don't freak out he's part of Magcon. We just had a long and rough flight. We got off the plane at 5:30. Just trying to sleep.
-XO Ava'

          I hope they see that. I place my suitcases next to Shawn's which are by the window and take off my converse. Ah finally I can feel my feet. Shawn pats the bed next to him and I crawl in realizing that he's shirtless. Which makes sense because it's warmer here than in Toronto. I fall asleep and pray to get at least 2 hours of sleep.

~~~

          I wake up to see Shawn still sleeping beside me and the two boys not here. I look at the clock and it's 10:17. I guess I have to get up. Boy, I'm going to need all the sleep I can get. I hurriedly hop into the shower and I take a 6 or 7 minute shower, I know my showers are short. I get out and dry off. I put on some white high waisted shorts with a mint flowy tank top and a cream colored cardigan because it's a little chilly outside (pic at top). I blow dry my hair which takes also about 6 or 7 minutes and end up curling it with my wand. I put on some chapstick and mascara and call it good.

          I'm actually satisfied with my look today. Cool. I walk out of the bathroom and decide to wake up Shawn. By now it's 10:50. I walk over to the side of the bed and shake him. "Ugh what do you want?" He groans in a groggy early morning voice. "WAKE UP BITCH WE'RE IN TEXAS!" I yell excitedly.

          He smiles a little and slowly gets up. "Well don't you look cute?" He says. I look down and say "Thank you." He smiles and heads to the bathroom. He takes a shower and changes. "So my first guess is that they're downstairs eating breakfast." I say. "You're probably right, let me check my phone really quick." He says and makes his way to the side of the bed.

          "You're right they're downstairs eating. Everybody got up a little late." I do the 'yes!!' arm thing and say "Psychic." He laughs and we head out the door into the elevator. "Oh Jeez Shawn. I'm really nervous. I'm going to shit my pants. Oh my lanta oh my lanta oh my lanta." He laughs and quickly hugs me. "Ave you'll be fine."

          We walk out of the elevator and head towards the breakfast area. I see a group of teenage boys all talking and eating. Oh shit this is not going to go well I can feel it. They all stop talking as Shawn approaches them while I stay behind about 10 feet. Bart walks up to Shawn and introduces him to everyone. They all high-five and Mahogany hugs Shawn. I'm gulping and I turn to go back to the room when all of a sudden I feel a hand on my shoulder.

          "Where do you think you're going Ave?" Oh gosh. "Um shit." I mumble. He links his arm in mine and I slink out. He looks at me and I give him a sympathetic sarcastic frown. Then I make a dash for it, around the coffee area past the waffle bar and behind a trash can. Shawn comes over and crouches down and says "Nice try buck-o." I groan as he throws me over his shoulder and walks back over to the table. "Ugh hop off my shit Mendes." I roll my eyes and laugh a little.

          He sets me down in front of a table full of boys Mahogany laughing hysterically. I blush and look down. "I already love you!" Mahogany says. I smile at her and slowly look away as everyone calms down. "So... Everyone this is Ava, or Ave for short. I'm not sure if Bart told you but she'll be staying with us for the whole trip. And no we aren't siblings." Shawn says.

          "This is Nash and Hayes. They're the Grier brothers and the ones we're sharing a room with." Shawn points to 2 beautiful blue eyed boys. I wave and give a small smile. He points to everyone in a line. "This is Matt Espinosa, Carter Reynolds, Jacob Whitesides, Aaron Carpenter, Cameron Dallas, Taylor Caniff, Jack J, and Jack G." I wave at all of them with a couple "hi's" escaping my mouth. And at the end Shawn says "She's not very social and she's a dweeb, but she's pretty cool once you warm up to her." I punch him in the arm and they all chuckle.

          Nash comes up and says "Hey! So we're sharing a room for the Dallas part! I saw your note this morning so I didn't wake y'all up. Consider yourselves lucky this time." He says and gives me the evil eye. We laugh and I sit at the end next to Nash and Shawn. "But seriously I almost screamed this morning seeing two other people in our room." Nash says laughing. I laugh too. "Sorry I couldn't stay awake much longer. I was tired as frick."  "Nah don't be. You're good I would have done the same." He says.

          Maybe this isn't going to be so bad. They all seem like nice people and I'm secretly a huge dork about some of them including Shawn so maybe Mahogany and I can fangirl together sometime. I laugh to myself. Once we finish breakfast, Bart announces that today is the day off of our time here. So Matt and Carter both suggest we go up to a hotel room and get to know each other. We all agree and head up.

A/N: Ayeee! Finally MagCon. It's 1:30 am and I stayed up til 5 last night. Ugh I'm so tired. Peace guys
