Shawn woke up at six to a few texts from Jaxon's mom.

From 'Mom in law':

-Good Morning. Just got to the airport. We're taking off in about 20 minutes! I'll let you know when we land!

-We've landed! Renting a car for the week! Send some restaurants for lunch! I can't wait to see the two of you.

-I've also informed Jaxon that his sisters will be coming as well. I know we've arranged for me to stay with you guys, but if there isn't enough room let me know and I will get us a hotel.

To 'Mom in law':

-location pin drop to 'Sizzle & Spice'
-is 1 pm okay??

He sighs as he clicks his phone off. He lays back against his pillow. Should he ruin the surprise? It didn't feel like it would even be a good one anymore.

He looks over at Jaxon who is fast asleep, his hair messy. Shawn yawns and gets out of bed, picking up his boxers from off the floor where they ended up last night.

He walks into their living room. Thank God, they cleaned up last night. He goes into the kitchen and starts a pot of coffee. Jaxon still has a class today until ten. Plus, the drive from the airport to their apartment is three hours.

He hears shuffling, pulling himself out of his thoughts. He looks up and sees Jaxon, dressed in a pair of boxers and a zip-up jacket that he left open.

"My head hurts," He groans. "Whatever Gavin made last night was so strong."

Shawn chuckles a little as Jaxon joins him in the kitchen. He kisses him on his lips. "You good for class?"

"Mhm," Jaxon pulls out of Shawn's embrace, grabbing the bottle of Tylenol. "One last exam."

"How about lunch today? Can I take you to lunch? At one?"

Jaxon furrows his brows as he looks up at Shawn. "Why are you talking like that?"

"Like what?"

"Like you're nervous," Jaxon laughs a little. "Of course, I'll go to lunch with you silly."

Shawn just smiles back and turns back to the coffee machine. Once it was finished, he poured himself a cup, fixing it with creamer and sugar, and took a long sip.

"I should shower and head out. I wanna get in at least an hour of studying before I take my exam."

"I think you're good, babe. You've been studying nonstop for weeks."

"True but...You know me. The need to succeed." Jaxon smiles. "But lunch, today, I promise." He kisses Shawn again before walking away to their bedroom.

One pm rolled around quicker than Shawn thought. He managed to clean their apartment a little more, fixing up the guest bedroom that they had mainly used to store a bunch of junk.

It has really only ever been used when friends are too drunk to go home, or that one time Gavin stayed with them while he and Chantel figured things out.

He had a quick therapy session that was unplanned, he just felt like he needed to talk for a second.

And then he was off to pick up Jaxon.
