Shawn Mendes Imagines

Blackmail

a/n: i have nothing against lauren, but in this case, don't picture her as shawn's 'ex', just another friend :)

"Babe? I'm heading out to Laur's! Is that okay?" I hear Shawn yell from downstairs. I roll my eyes in frustration, not even bothering to make the slightest move.

"Yeah sure, go on" I reply as I turned the TV off. There was no response. He probably must've went.

You see, Shawn's close friend Lauren claims that she's had personal problems at home, and Shawn has been going to her house almost every second of every minute of every hour of every day. Trust me when I say that, there's not a second that passes by when I actually get to have a decent conversation with him.

But here's that catch:

Laur's lying. She's only trying to get with him. And she's threatened to blackmail me if I said anything about this to Shawn. So obviously, being the person I am, I'm gonna shut my mouth unless things start to get out of hand.

Taking the bedsheets off me, my phone buzzes. Thinking it was a message from Shawn, I unlock it, but then realise it was an alert from clash of clans.

Great.

Opening the message app, I quickly form a quick message to Shawn.

Me: when are ya coming back?

After a few minutes, the message is read, but no response

Me: if only you knew.

Shawn: Knew what?

Me: now you decide to text back, smh.

Shawn: If only I knew what though, y/n?

Me: it's too complicated shawn. just ignore what i said.

I turn off my phone, chucking it on the bed, and sleeping to kill the time. I don't know how long it was since then, but I hear the rustling of keys once again. Shawn.

"Y/n? I'm back." I pull the covers off me. His footsteps are heard coming up the stairs, and I fake using my phone.

I don't respond, and look down at the screen in my hands, pretending to be occupied when in reality I really wasn't.

"Y/n? I'm back." The door opens and I look up only for a split second. I really shouldn't be assuming things, but I can't help but think that I'm losing him.

"I'm gonna go and make some breakfast, since I haven't ate anything yet."

"But it's 2 o'clock" Shawn looks confused.

"It's never too late for a good old breakfast." I mutter under my breath, making my way down the stairs.

"Y/n you're acting weird what's up?" He asks, following behind me. I shrug, not knowing what to say.

"I don't want to risk anything, especially our relationship." Shawn stops dead in his tracks, looking at me as if I were absurd.

"Y/n, this isn't about Laur-"

I couldn't help myself anymore, whatever she said had to be told or else I couldn't survive this relationship built on a lie.

"She blackmailed me. Lauren blackmailed me and lied about her entire situation and she's threatened to tell everyone false information about me if I were to interrupt this fling going on between the two of you b-but I can't help myself and it had to be done and-" As I struggle to find the correct words, I was already out of breath yet I still had a ton more to say. Shawn listened intently, and ushered me to sit down.

After a few minutes of rambling on, it finally snaps to Shawn, and I bite my lip in order to restrain myself from saying anything else.

"Is there anything else she said?"

I look down and fiddle with my fingers, debating on whether to say what shouldn't be said.

"She wants us to break up. So she's trying to get you to spend as much time with her by saying all this." My breath hitches.

"Y/n I'm so sorry I didn't know about this-"

"It's fine, it wasn't your fault anyway. I'm gonna go to the bathroom since my eyes are sweating rapidly." And with that being said, I rush out of the room, bolting into the toilet.

Looking myself in the mirror, I was fortunate enough to not look like a mess.

That was until now. I wash my face, letting the cold water rinse my pain away.

"Y/n? Can I come in?" Shawn asks politely from outside the door. I slowly open it, weakly smiling.

"I look like a total mess right now."

"No you don't, you look stunning, and I'm gonna set a few things straight with Lauren. My heart is yours and yours only." He says as he embraces me in a hug, kissing the top of my head.

"And my heart is yours too."
