I woke up to being still held in Shawn's arms.
"Shawn" I wake him up.
"Lydia" he smiles.
He looks so cute right now. No, Lydia what are you doing keep it together.
"I should probably go home" I whisper.
"I wanted you to work today" he frowns.
"Okay but let me go home and shower and everything"
"At least let me drive you" he plays with his fingers.
"Okay, let's go"
The drive home was quite short. And thank god the snow cleared up over night.
Shawn parks on my drive way and turns off the car.
"Do you wanna come in?" I offer
"Will your mum mind?" He questions.
"Of corse not, come on!"
We get out the car and walk through the front door.
"Mum I'm home, but I have to work again today" I yell
"Hey sweetie, if I didn't know it any better you'd be screwing your boss" she walks in hall where we were standing. "Oh, sorry"
"It's okay, I'm Shawn Mendes, and we are not sleeping together" Shawn laughs.
"I'm going to go shower and change, Shawn's right to stay here?" I ask mum.
"Yeah sure" mum smiles at him.
I walk up stairs and get into the shower. I hope my mum doesn't scare Shawn too much.
SHAWNS POV
"So Shawn why are you so young running a music store?" Lydia's mum asks as she gets me to sit on the couch beside her.
"My parents travel a lot so they left my in charge of everything Mrs Henerys" I say.
"Please call me Grace"
Oh no first name basis, she knows that I'm in love with her daughter.
Yes I'm in love with Lydia, and have been since the first day I met her. And last night was the closest I have ever been with her and it felt so nice. I just wish she'd feel the same.
"Shawn when are you going to ask her out?" Grave whispers.
"What do you mean?" I lie, I knew what she meant.
"I can see the way you look at her Shawn, and every time I ask Lydia about you she pauses like she has some thing to hide"
"But I don't want to ruin our friendship"
"You and I both know that it wasn't even meant to start out as a friendship to begin with, call me weird but I got the strange feeling when I saw you two that something beautiful will happen"
Why is Lydia's mum practically telling me to go for her daughter?
"She's never had anyone before and I hoping you'll be a good influence to you know, change her?" Grace shrugs.
"Oh, uh sorry but what do you mean?" I speak up, I'm getting frustrated, does she think I'll change Lydia?
"She's a very, uh, different"
"I'm sorry but if you're wanting me to change your daughter I can't, I like her just they way she is, and you should too" I start to yell. I don't know why I get so defensive over Lydia, I mean she's not even mine. Grace walked away in anger.
I hear the shower stop so I run up to see Lydia. I knocked on the door, no answer so I knocked again. Still no answer. So I just walked in.
"OMG Shawn!" Lydia yells while quickly wrapping a towel around her.
"I'm sorry but things just got awkward with your mum." I cover my eyes.
"So you walk in on me trying to get dressed?" She laughs. "You're lucky I have a good sense of humour"
"I know" I smile
"And what do you mean awkward?"
After I explain about what just happened with her mum she just stands their.
"Typical!" She yells. "She never wants me to be myself!"
"You can stay with me if you want?" I offer.
"Really? That would be great!"
Well yeah, If I get to see you naked again, it would be. No Shawn stop letting you're 17 year old teenage hormones kick in.
"Of corse"
"Thank you so much Shawn, let me get dressed and grab some clothes and I'll meet you in the car"
I walk back down stairs to see her mum crying on the couch. I shouldn't but I'm going to.
"What at wrong Grace?" There I did it.
"You were right Shawn, I should love her for who she is and not what she isn't. I just I know what it's like to grow up without a father and I know what it was like to be seen as someone who isn't the best. All I ever wanted was for her to be happy and I wanted her to have fun with friends but all she has gotten is her music" Grace try's to say.
"And she does, she's got me, I'm not leaving her" I smile.
"Yeah but how long until you change your mind?"
"Never"
"What makes you so sure?"
"Because I'm in love with her"
