I just finished Shawn and I's laundry and I still have a lot to do. It was the fourth load I have done today. All he has done is sit on the couch since he's gotten home.

I get that Shawn has a lot on his plate with the new album, but I'm working too and coming home and doing all of the housework is tiring.

"Shawn can we talk?" I asked sitting down next to him on the couch. He continued to look at the tv, completely dazed.

"Shawn?" I said snapping him out of his trance. "Hmm?" He responded. "Can we talk?" I said causing him to sit up and turned towards me.

"What is it that you want to talk about?" He asked. "Shawn I understand that the album has you busy, but I can't be the only one doing stuff around here. I work too." I said causing him to clench his jaw.

"Y/n I have fans out there, my job is actually important. What my fan think about my music means a lot so I have to work really hard, you know that." His words stung. I felt the tears pool in my eyes. He thinks my job isn't important. He knows I'm living my dream.

" I know I may not have millions of fans like you Shawn, but my job is important. It's important to me and I'm living my dream so you have no right to put me down for it." I yelled. I saw his eyes soften realizing what he had said.

"No darling. You know that's not what I meant. I just-" I cut him off. "You just what Shawn? You didn't mean for that to slip. Well what you really think is out now isn't? You won't have to hide it anymore." I said grabbing my keys and slamming the door behind me.

I didn't know where I was going but all I know is I needed to get out of that house.

I wiped my tears as took a deep breath, calming myself. I unlocked the door and walked in.

What I saw shocked me. The living room was clean, the kitchen was spotless, the dishes were done. Everything was neat and perfect.

Shawn walked out of the hallway and into the living room where I was at. I smiled as my eyes began to water once again.

He cupped my cheeks with his large hands, rubbing his thumb against them, calming me.

"I'm sorry Y/n. Your job is important and I don't think mine is anymore important than yours. I love seeing you do what you love, it truly brings joy to me. And I do need to help you around the house. You work hard and it's not fair to you for you to come and do all the housework so from now on I will help you out. If you ever need anything more just tell me, please."

I smiled causing a tear to fall down my face, Shawn wiping it away soon after.

"Thank you Shawn, but I overreacted. Your job is very hard and I should do whatever it takes to help you out when you need it. Even if it is doing all the housework." He shook his head.

"How about this. We will do the chores together from now on?" I smiled.

"That'd be great."
