Shawn Mendes imagines

He gets Jealous

All in the same minute, a player from the opposing team went in for the layup successfully, making the score an already tight 3-2, with Shawn's team leading. This was going to be a game for the books.

By halftime, North High was winning with a comfortable yet high 73-56 on the scoreboard. Shawn had already dropped 24 of those points, and you couldn't be any happier for your best friend. All of his hard work was finally being showcased in front of everyone tonight, and by the look on his face, you knew Shawn was thinking the same. He was definitely humble about his talents, but always appreciated the praise that came from the rowdy student crowd.

When the referee blew the whistle indicating the third quarter would be starting in a matter of seconds, a wink that was sent your way caught your eye. It wasn't the familiar silly type of wink that belonged to Shawn, but it was from a player on West Bay's team. You didn't recognize him, but that didn't stop you from blushing for the second time tonight. You looked away to cover the rising red hue coming to your face but as you looked up, the unknown player was still looking at you, adorned with his bright smile. Sure, he was cute, but you brushed it off your shoulder suspecting that the gesture probably wasn't even meant for you.

Your cue to snap out of your daydreams came when the crowd roared again, telling you that someone had scored. The score moved up to 75-56, meaning North High just got another two points. Looking around for who might've gotten those points, your questions were answered when you heard the gym chant Shawn's name. Before you had any more time to ponder, Shawn stole the ball from the other team, sprinting down the court with the ball dribbling in his right hand. His arms and legs flexed as he worked on taking the ball down the court. You couldn't help but stare at his back muscles stiffly flexing through the thin material of his jersey. Shawn slightly turned his head to look over his shoulder, making sure no one was there to stop him. Leaping, he went in for the dunk, making it. Rising to your feet alongside the rest of your school, you cheered for Shawn and the dunk. At least his long noodle legs were finally good for something you giggled to yourself.

This night couldn't have gotten any better for Shawn. Not only had he scored over a third of North High's points for tonight, but it looked like the win would be going to him and his team tonight. You could see the passion and excitement shine through him as he ran down the court with a grin.

By the time there was only ten seconds remaining in the last quarter, you checked the score to see it be 103-89. You knew that there was no way West Bay would be able to catch up by now and ran down the court to congratulate Shawn and the team once the timer drained and the sound of buzzer consumed the whole gym.

He immediately brought you in for a hug as soon as you tapped his shoulder.

"Hey watch it, you're sweaty and smelly," You teased at your best friend.
"Oh shut it, Y/N. Don't kill my vibe," Shawn laughed back. He was still energetic from the adrenaline of the game, his arms shaking off the nerves that he usually gathered from any match.

"I'm so proud of you. You kicked some butt out there," You said, hugging Shawn tighter.

The two of you hugged for who knows how long before he was forced to let go by his waiting team. They all lined up near the microphone and huddled around the coach and principal. Some were even making their own circle around Shawn who without a doubt, had been the star player tonight.

"Everyone congratulate your new district champs! They will be moving on to regionals in two weeks!" Your principal enthusiastically shouted through the mic. If the gym wasn't already loud with school pride, it definitely was now. The trophy was handed to Shawn as he raised it towards the ceiling, marking your school's basketball team as the new champions. A year's worth of hard work payed off, and you were more than glad to witness the important night for your bestfriend and school.
