Don't Leave: A Shassie Fanfic

Yes

Lassiter woke up to probably the worst headache of his life. He tried to get up; and realized that to be a bad idea as he had to rush to the bathroom.

Shawn was there in seconds beside his sick boyfriend.

"There you go hon. Let it all out."

It took a few minutes for Lassiter to stop and when he did he leaned back with a groan.

"What the hell happened last night Shawn?" As soon as he asked it all came back, finding Shawn flirting with another girl, coming home, drinking, and blacking out. All this coming back made him lunge to the toilet again.

"Wow. Next time keep the drinking to a minimum Lassie" said Shawn next to his lover again.

"Why were you flirting with that girl Spencer? Especially since you knew I would be right out? Did you not think I would see you?"

"Well, considering that you were a minute behind me, you have to believe that I thought you were blind, which is not the case-"

"Spencer!" Carlton gave Shawn a look that could kill. Shawn knew that when Carlton used his last name he meant business. Shawn sighed.

"She was simply delivering something that I needed before today. There were complications in the order so I asked her to bring it in at the station. I thought it was late and maybe I would have to pick it up today but she got there right before we were supposed to leave."

"Like hell. Why would you need something before today? What is so special about today?"

"Umm... Maybe your birthday. Duhh. I was going to find a better time today to do this but I suppose now will work."

Lassiter watched skeptically at first, than in astonishment, as Shawm pulled out a royal blue velvet box and knelt on the tile floor of the bathroom. When he opened it there were two silver rings with a small blue diamond, the same color as Carlton's eyes, in the center.

"I always thought you would be the one to ask me but knowing you that would take forever so I took matters into my own hands. Not exactly surprising though since I do that all the time anyways." Shawn took a deep breath looking into Lassiter's eyes. "So. Carlton Lassiter. I know we don't always agree, and you find me annoying sometimes, hopefully you find me attractive too cause if not that might make future sex awfully weird, but, back to the point, I would not be able to find someone I love more than you. Except maybe Kurt Smith. I can't deny that I love him. Although he might be a worse drunk than you. Which is saying something. But again, I digress. I want you to know that I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Carlton Lassiter. Lassie. Lassie-face. Dear dear sexy Carly. Will you marry me?"

Throughout the entire, somewhat babble like, speech, Carlton just stared at Shawn. Even after a few minutes of silence after the proposal he was still staring.

Shawn shifted uncomfortably. "Umm... Lassie, this is usually the part where you say yes. Or no. But that would not be a very good thing so I won't think of it. I mean, I know that proposing while you have a hangover, and puking and doing it in the bathroom isn't all that romantic, but I didn't think all that mattered-"

Shawn was cut off by Lassiter's lips on his own. Strong, powerful, dominating lips. After a while Shawn drew back and smiled.

"I am guessing that is a yes than?"

"Shawn"

"Yes Lassie?"

"Bedroom. Now."

"Promise you won't be sick again?"

"Shawn!"

"Okay!"

They both stood up, kissing again, while the box was left on the bathroom floor. They stumbled their way to the bed while getting as much clothes off each other as they could without having their lips breaking contact.

In a few hours they were cuddling very close together on the bed. It was completely silent until Shawn spoke up.

"Can you say yes"

Lassiter looked at Shawn with mild surprise. "What?"

"Say yes. I know that that is what this all meant, but I still need to hear you say it."

Lassiter smiled. "Yes Shawn. I will marry you. I love you. Why do you think I got so jealous?"

Shawn laughed under his breath. And than he became grave, which is unusual for the childish psychic. "Did you really think I would leave you for some other girl? Or even take the time to flirt with her when I had you?"

Lassiter lay his head on Shawn's chest. "It's not that I didn't trust you. I am just afraid you'll find someone that matches you better. I am not as energetic as you, and I take thing more seriously than you do. I am afraid you'll find someone you will like more than me."

"Oh Lassie. I could never find someone better than you. You are perfect in your way. Yes, you sweat the small stuff and are serious about everything, but that is exactly why I love you. I will never leave you, or flirt with someone else. Not as long as I am with you. Which I will make sure will be a long time."

Carlton laughed at Shawn's determination. "Ok than. For now on when I see you talking to someone else, I promise to not go on a bender till I know the details. Fair?"

"Fair!" Shawn replied with a laugh.

They spent a while in each other's warm embrace until they finally left to tell everyone of their engagement.
