A/n: explicit language in this one! I hope you guys enjoy. Okay, let's begin!
I opened my eyes and yawned as I came face to face with my handsome, sleeping boyfriend, singer and songwriter Shawn Mendes. Yesterday we had a movie marathon, then took a walk around the neighborhood, and then we decided to go a humongous park with a mansion on it. We walked along the different trails for a while and then came home and went to sleep since we were so exhausted, so I wasn't surprised when I looked at the time and saw that it was ten in the morning. We usually wake up around eight o'clock or earlier.
I studied Shawn's gorgeously handsome face as he slept and I smiled. How did I get so lucky? I have the most amazing and most handsome boyfriend ever and I love him so much. I looked at his sharp and defined jawline and placed a gentle kiss on it. In his sleep, he smiled, causing me to smile. I let my finger lightly touch his cute little cheek scar and trace his lips. I kissed his nose, causing him to scrunch it up for a second before letting it go back to his natural state. Shawn soon stirred and rubbed the tiredness out of his eyes. When he looked at me, he smiled and pulled me closer to him.
"Good morning handsome." I greeted. His smile grew wider.
"Good morning beautiful. Were you touching my face again?" Shawn asked. I giggled and nodded.
"I couldn't help it! You're just so handsome, so divine." I said. Shawn placed a gentle and magical kiss on my lips. We pulled away and I heard his stomach growl. We both laughed as his face turned a bright red.
"Sorry to ruin the cute moment and all, but I'm hungry. What time is it anyways?" Shawn asked.
"A little after ten o'clock. We slept in my love." I said. Shawn nodded as him and I got up out of bed and went into our closet. I put on black leggings a gray long sleeve shirt.
"Y/n?" Shawn asked. I turned to look at my boyfriend who was wearing his signature black skinny jeans and a blue long sleeve that accentuated his muscles. I practically started to drool but remembered that he had said my name.
"Yes handsome?" I asked while walking over to him and putting my hands on his biceps as he put his hands on my hips.
"Do you want to wear one of my hoodies?" He asked. I smiled and nodded.
"I would love to." I said. Shawn smiled at me and then looked at all of his hoodies.
"Which one do you want to wear?" Shawn asked.
"Are there any that are off limits?" I asked. Shawn shook his head violently.
"No, of course not honey. Listen, we share everything, and I know how much you like my clothes, therefore, my hoodies are your hoodies." Shawn said with a smile. I smiled and clapped my hands together.
"Oh yay! I feel so special." I said, looking back at Shawn's hoodies. He turned me around so I was facing him and cupped my face with his hands before kissing my nose, causing me to smile.
"That's because you are special, my love." Shawn said. I smiled at him.
"Well you are too." I said. Shawn kissed my nose again and I turned back to his hoodies. I examined one of his black hoodies, but when I saw that it was his Givenchy hoodie, I quickly let go of it.
"Baby girl, just because it's Givenchy doesn't mean it's off limits." Shawn said to me.
"I know, but it's Givenchy. It probably cost a lot and I don't want to ruin it." I said. Shawn took the black Givenchy hoodie off its clothes hanger and handed it to me.
"Wear it baby. I saw you looking it up and down." Shawn said. I shook my head.
"No, I don't want to ruin it." I said again. Now it was Shawn's turn to shake his head.
"You're not going to ruin it. If you don't wear it, I'll tickle you until you pee yourself." Shawn said with a smirk. I groaned but took the hoodie from him. He smiled when I put it on.
"Do I look okay?" I asked timidly. Shawn nodded.
"You look perfect my dear. You always do. Come on, I'll go make some pancakes and we can have our counter talks." Shawn said, and as our hands touched, I felt safer and warmer than I had before. We walked downstairs and he picked me up and set me on our kitchen counter as he began to make our breakfast. Our counter talks are when he puts me on the counter and we talk as he makes us pancakes.
"So what should we do today Shawny?" I asked him. He smiled at the nickname and kissed my cheek.
"Well, we could always just cuddle on the couch, or go to the park again. What do you want to do my love?" Shawn asked me as he finished the first pancakes. I opened my mouth to speak but before any words could come out, the doorbell rang. Shawn and I looked at each other with confusion on both of our faces. Shawn picked me up and set me down on the floor so I could answer the door while he worked our breakfast. I opened the door and was shocked to see Shawn's best friend Brian, but he wasn't alone. Standing right beside him was Shawn's ex-girlfriend, Lauren.
"Hey Y/n! How are you?" Brian asked. I faked a smile for him.
"I'm good. How are you?" I asked.
"Good. I thought that it would be cool to surprise you and Shawn. Where's that boy at?" Brian asked.
"Yeah, come on in. He's in the kitchen making breakfast. Why don't you guys go in the living room, and I'll be right there?" I asked as I opened the door up more, letting Brian and Lauren in. They nodded.
"I'm Lauren by the way, Shawn's ex-girlfriend." Lauren said with a smile as we shook hands.
"Hi, I'm Y/n. Shawn's current girlfriend." I said with a fake smile. Brian and Lauren sat down on the couch in the living room and I went into the kitchen. Shawn stared at me with wide eyes when I came over to stand next to him.
"What the actual and complete fuck?" Shawn whispered. I shrugged.
"I don't know. What do we do?" I asked. Shawn thought for a moment while still working on our breakfast.
"We act completely normal and pretend that we're not phased by my ex being here at all. I obviously don't mind Brian being here, but it's her that I mind just because it's going to be so weird and awkward for all of us." Shawn said. I nodded as Shawn sighed. I went back into the living room.
"Do you guys want anything to eat or drink?" I asked Brian and Lauren, trying to be a good hostess.
"Just a water please." Brian said. I looked at Lauren.
"Some water please." She said. I nodded and grabbed them both a water. Brian and Lauren were sitting on the couch so I grabbed two chairs from the kitchen table and moved them so they were across from Brian and Lauren.
"Need help with moving the chairs honey?" Shawn asked. I smiled at him and shook my head.
"No, I got them. Thank you though." I said. He went back to the pancakes and was soon finished with them. He brought a plate of pancakes over to me as he held another plate which had his pancakes on them and sat down.
"So how are you guys? What are you guys doing here?" Shawn inquired. Brian opened his mouth to speak but Lauren beat him.
"We're good Shawny. Brian and I just thought that it would nice to randomly show up at your house and surprise you." Lauren said with a smile, staring at Shawn. Oh hell no. She did not just call my Shawn, Shawny. Only I get to call him that, it's my nickname for him.
"Actually it's our house, and you surprised us." Shawn said, pointing between him and I. I smiled at him as he smiled at me and then kissed my cheek. When I looked back at Lauren, she was staring into her water bottle. Lauren then looked up and turned to me with wide eyes. Oh gosh.
"So, Y/n, isn't Shawn just a sex god? Isn't he just great in bed?" Lauren asked me.
"Lauren!" Shawn practically yelled. I rested my hand on his leg, reassuring him that it was fine and his face softened when he looked into my eyes. I looked back towards Lauren.
"Actually, I want to make sure that I'm with the right guy first before I have sex, so I'm waiting for marriage before I give my body to someone. I mean, I know that Shawn's the right guy, but I just want to make sure." I said. Her eyes widened and her jaw dropped. She looked over at Shawn.
"And you're okay with this Shawn? With her not giving you any sex?" Lauren asked. Shawn nodded.
"Yeah. I would a lifetime for her. She's protecting herself and I really admire that about her." Shawn said. He smiled at me and I leaned my head on his shoulder. He kissed the top of my head. This boy makes me so happy and I'm so in love with him. I picked my head up and resumed my eating.
"But don't you think that she's holding you back from sex?" Lauren said. That had once been a fear of mine, but when I told Shawn that I was feeling that way, he reassured me that I wasn't and that everything was fine. Shawn shook his head at Lauren.
"No, not at all. She's not holding me back from anything." Shawn said. I smiled a real smile.
"I'm going to make myself some coffee, do you want any tea or anything?" I asked Shawn as I stood up. He thought for a moment before nodding.
"Yeah. Would you mind making me some tea?" Shawn asked. I gave him a sweet and gentle kiss on the lips and when I pulled away I smiled and shook my head no.
"Nope, not at all." I said. Shawn smiled at me. I went to walk away before Shawn spoke again.
"Hey honey?" Shawn asked. I looked at him.
"Yes Shawny?" I asked.
"I love you." He said with a wide smile on his face, and I knew he wasn't just saying because Brian and Lauren were right in front of him, he was saying it because he means it and he wants to remind me of how he feels about me. I smiled at him and kissed his forehead.
"I love you too." I said before walking into the kitchen. As I grabbed two mugs from the kitchen cupboard, I heard footsteps come up from behind me. I assumed it was Shawn, so I started to make the coffee. Suddenly, Lauren was standing next to me.
"Hey Y/n." She said.
"Hey, everything okay? Do you want something to eat?" I asked. Was that why she had come into the kitchen? She shook her head as I continued to make my coffee.
"No. I just wanted to let you know that, well, I was talking to my friends the other day, and we all agreed that you're a downgrade from me." She said. I looked at her with wide eyes.
"Excuse me?" I asked.
"Well don't take it personally. It's just that we all agreed that I'm prettier than you, skinnier than you, and probably smarter than you too." Lauren said. I was beyond shocked. I had always been insecure about my looks and weight, no matter how many times Shawn reassured me that I'm beautiful and not at all fat.
"How else am I supposed to take these comments besides personally? You can't even say anything about who's smarter than who because you don't even know my grades." I pointed out. I stirred my coffee and got started on Shawn's tea. Lauren rolled her eyes and shook her head.
"I'm curious, do you have a job?" She asked. Where was she going to go with this?
"Yes, I do. I'm an English tutor at the school that I go to." I said.
"How much does it pay an hour?" She asked.
"To be honest with you, my finances are none of your business. Why do you even want to know that?" I said and asked.
"Well I just get the feeling that you're not only holding Shawn back from sex but you're holding him back financially too. I'm guessing that with a job like that, you're getting paid very little and it's Shawn that ends up having to pay for the heating and the lighting and the mortgage and all of the bills. You're just in the relationship for the money, so you can mooch off of him." Lauren said. Okay, that's it. Enough. Lauren and I had been talking quietly this whole time, but now, I didn't care if Brian and Shawn heard me or not. I needed to put this girl in her place. I crossed my arms so she couldn't see my clenched fist.
"How dare you walk into mine and Shawn's house and say all of this shit to me. You don't even know me. Shawn already told you that I'm not holding him back from sex, or were you not listening? You can't just randomly show up at our house and then tell me that I'm in the relationship for the money. I am not at all in this relationship for the money. I'm in this relationship because I love Shawn and he loves me, so don't you fucking dare tell me what I'm in this relationship for because it sure as hell isn't the money." I said, anger boiling inside me. Shawn ran over to us.
"What the hell is going on over here?" Shawn asked, but Lauren and I didn't answer because we were too busy staring daggers at each other. Shawn gently grabbed my arm and led me away from Lauren and up the stairs. We got into our bedroom and as soon as he shut the door, I started to speak.
"I want her fucking gone. I want her out of this house and gone." I said. Shawn walked over to me and used his hands to wrap my arms around his torso and he wrapped his arms around my shoulders. I rested my head on his chest.
"Okay, first, take a deep breath, and then tell me everything that happened." Shawn said. I started to cry quietly, not wanting Lauren to hear how much her words had gotten to me, and told Shawn every single thing that was said in the kitchen. As I spoke, I saw his jaw clench and I could tell that he had stopped letting his hands just rest on my back, but rather they were clenched into fists. I finished telling Shawn everything and he helped to wipe away my tears.
"I'm so sorry that I made a scene and upset you." I said. Shawn then guided me over to the bed so we could sit down and face each other. He held my hands in his, making me feel warm and safe. I stared at our hands. Shawn took his index finger and lightly lifted my chin up so I was looking him in his eyes, the same eyes that I always get lost in, the same ones that I've always been in love with.
"You did not at all cause a scene. I know you better than anyone else does, right?" Shawn asked. I nodded, still looking into his eyes.
"Yeah." I said.
"And since I know you so well, I know that you hate yelling at people, even if you feel like they deserve it, and I know that you hate and dread confrontation. But you did both at the same time. You yelled at her while confronting her about the stupid shit that she was saying, and I'm proud of you for that." Shawn said.
"Really?" I asked. Shawn nodded.
"Yup. You stood up for yourself babe! Sometimes you ask me to say something for you - which I don't mind, but I love it when you stand up for yourself. You didn't cause a scene and I'm going to buy her a plane ticket back to Toronto. She can't just show up here and say all of those things and get away with it." Shawn said. I nodded and hugged him.
"Thank you Shawn." I said. He pulled away a little.
"For what?" He asked, a look of confusion etched across his gorgeously handsome face.
"For being proud of me and for the fact that you're going to buy her a plane ticket back to Toronto." I said. Shawn smiled at me and kissed my forehead.
"No one talks to my girl like that and gets away with it. Even if it was a family member of mine, I would still yell at them or do something." Shawn said. I blushed and smiled. A thought popped into my head and I moved so I was sitting on Shawn's lap. I gently held his face in my hands.
"Shawn, I really, really need you to know that I am in no way in this relationship for the money. I'm in this relationship because I love you with everything in me. I'm so in love with you, and not just because of your looks but also because you have the most amazing personality. You're so loving, caring, kind, compassionate, passionate, and every nice word that I can think of. Your looks are just a bonus. But seriously Shawn, I'm not in the relationship for the money and I'm not trying to mooch off of you. I promise." I said. Shawn kissed gently yet passionately. When we pulled away, he rested his forehead against mine.
"My love, I know that you're not in this relationship for the money. When I look into your eyes, I see your love for me, and it makes me so happy. I know that you're not trying to mooch off of me honey, and you don't mooch off of me at all. I know that you're in love with me and I'm in love with you too. Now come on, let's go downstairs and buy Lauren that plane ticket." Shawn said. I pecked his lips with a kiss and got off of his lap. We held hands as we walked downstairs.
"Is everything okay? You guys were up there for a long time." Lauren said and asked. I stopped short and stared at her for a second before shaking my head and rolling my eyes. Was she seriously that oblivious?
"I'm just going to go grab the coffee and tea and stick them in the microwave for a little bit to warm them up." I said as I started to walk towards the kitchen, but Shawn gently grabbed my wrist and spun me around so I was facing him. He held my face in his hands and kissed me, really, really kissed me. Shawn and I pulled away from each other, smiling and out of breath from our loving kiss. As I turned around again I saw that Lauren was sitting there with her arms crossed.
"Was that really all that necessary?" I heard Lauren ask Shawn and I had to bite my lower lip in order to contain the laughter.
"Yes, actually, it was. I'm in love with that girl, she's my future wife, and a kiss is a reminder of our love." Shawn said. I smiled.
"But did you really have to do that right in front of Brian and I?" Lauren asked.
"What so now Y/n and I have to shield our love for each other? Not going to happen, especially in our own house." Shawn said. I heard Lauren scoff.
"So now I have to stay at your house and see you guys do stuff like that?" Lauren asked. What?
"Who the hell said you were staying at mine and Y/n's house?" I heard Shawn ask.
"Well I just assumed that it would be okay if Lauren and I stayed here for a couple of days." Brian said nervously.
"Brian, I love you man, you're one of my best friends - Y/n being number one of course - but you can't just randomly show up here and assume that we're going to be totally fine with this. You can stay here Brian, but Lauren, you can't." Shawn said as I walked over with both mugs in my hands. I set them down and Shawn thanked me.
"Where am I supposed to go Shawn? It's not like I have a plane ticket on me." Lauren asked and said.
"Which is why I'm buying you a ticket for the next flight out to Toronto right now." Shawn said as he did stuff on his phone.
"WHAT?" Lauren yelled, causing everyone in the room to jump.
"Lauren, did you really expect us to be okay with you randomly showing up here and then saying shit to my girlfriend? That's not going to fly. You did nothing but put her down and then tell her that she's in the relationship for the money. Do you know what I see when I look into Y/n's eyes? Love. Pure love, and lots of it. She is in no way, shape, or form, with me for the money. And you asking her about how much she gets paid? That's none of your business at all. You're going back to Toronto, there's no way in hell that you're staying here. Also, I just bought your ticket, it leaves in three hours, Brian why don't you go ahead and start driving her to the airport now please." Shawn said. Lauren grabbed her stuff and stormed out of the house. Brian left so he could drive her. Shawn and I turned to each other and smiled. I breathed a sigh of relief as soon as they walked out the door.
"Oh my God Shawn thank you so much." I said. We stood up and hugged.
"You're welcome honey. I love you to pluto and back." Shawn said, making me smile.
"I love you too Shawn, so, so, so much." I said.
"I am so talking to Brian when he gets back." Shawn said as he shook his head. I giggled and kissed his cheeks before he rested his head on my shoulder.
"Hey Shawny?" I asked. He picked his head up and looked into my eyes with nothing but love and adoration.
"Yes honey?" Shawn asked.
"Can we cuddle since we have the house all to ourselves?" I asked. Shawn smiled and nodded. We moved the extra chairs back into the kitchen and cuddled up on the couch. When Brian got back, not only was he yelled at by Shawn, but me too. Our drinks were gone by then. Brian then sat in the chair that reclines while Shawn and I laid down on the couch and cuddled up to each other. Shawn rubbed my back. I was half asleep when I heard Brian start to speak.
"Is she asleep?" Brian asked. There was a pause where Shawn must have been checking, but I didn't want to open my eyes, I was too tired.
"Yeah, she is, so we have to talk softly." Shawn said as he continued to rub my back.
"Did you mean what you said?" Brian asked.
"Which part? I meant all of it." Shawn asked and said.
"But did you really mean it when you said that Y/n is your future wife?" Brian asked. I could tell that Shawn was smiling.
"Yeah. She's the love of my life. I don't know what I would do without her. Lauren and I said I love you to each other but Y/n makes me feel things that I've never felt before, and I never want to stop feeling them. I'm so beyond madly, crazily, deeply, insanely in love with her. I would have proposed to her once the Jingle Ball concerts were over, but I don't want to propose and then have to leave for tour. I want to be able to stay here and help plan the wedding. I can't wait to make her Mrs. Mendes." Shawn said, and with that, I drifted off into a deep slumber, thankful for my loving, caring, and protective boyfriend.
