Shawn spent the night at Lassie's House and woke up comfortably with his head buried in Lassie's chest.

"Shawn?"

"Yeah?"

"Oh you're awake"

"Yep, you okay?"

"Yeah just wondering umm nevermind"

"No Lassie tell me, what's on your mind?"

"I just......."

Lassie stopped talking for a minute and stared at the bedding covering them.

"Lassie?"

"I-I don't want this to be a one night stand."  He said almost not putting any space between his words.

"Oh. Well me neither. I'm sorry I didn't um tell you before."

"Really?"

"Yes. I have honestly had a massive crush on you for years now CarlyTown. I'm surprised you haven't noticed."

"Me too. I really-really like you Shawn."

"Boyfriend?"

"Boyfriends."

They smiled and stayed holding eachother tightly for another ten minutes until Lassie got a phone call. The phone rang loudly through the house and almost made Shawn jump when it first went off.

"That's my phone, hang on I'll get it." Lassie said, slipping out from under the covers to grab his phone off of the nearby table. Shawn had a wonderful view of Lassie's butt, he watched as his boyfriend put the phone to his hear and started talking.

"No...... No I'm sorry but I'm busy right now....... Fine, I'll be there as soon as I can."

He put the phone back on the table and turned to Shawn who tried his best not to stare too much at any part of him that wasn't his face. His beautiful, handsome face. With such kissable lips and-

"Shawn are you listening?"

"Uhhm no?"

"Okay well O'Hara just called me to say I'm needed at work because they are investigating a particularly confusing crime scene." He said, putting his underwear on and unfortunately obscuring Shawn's view.

"Right. Well I'm coming with then."

"Alright, what food should we get on the way, we haven't had breakfast yet."

"Oh how about donuts and smoothies from that shop around the corner!"

"Sounds good now get dressed, I'm technically already four hours late, I was going to call in sick but O'Hara called before I got the chance." He said sounding quite grumpy but Shawn's presence made him feel that bit calmer.

"Uhmm Lass?" Shawn asked cautiously like a child that had broken his mother's favourite vase.

"Yes Shawn?"

"My clothes are kind of dirty and I don't have-" He was saying but Lassie cut him off by throwing trousers at him.

"Here wear some of mine, this shirt should fit you aswell." He continued saying, throwing more items of clothing in his direction.

Shawn caught most of them, "Thanks Lassie!" And began to put them on happily.

It would be lying if he said that wearing only his Boyfriends clothes did not excite him. He hadn't expected him to throw him underwear aswell but he isn't going to complain.

They grabbed their things and got in Lassie's car. On the way Shawn looked through his missed calls and messages. Gus had called him twelve times already leaving quite a few angry voice messages which he played in the car.

"Shawn I swear if you don't get down here in the next fifteen minutes!" "Where are you and what have you done now?!"  "Honestly I'm getting worried Shawn" "I will gut you like a fish if you are sleeping in!"

Carlton's eyebrows raised at the aggressive messages but Shawn simply smiled at his best friend's threats knowing they mostly came from a place of love. Mostly.
And no Shawn didn't call Gus infact the only message he sent was the address of the crime scene "241 Abebrook Street".

........

Gus was having an awfully stressful day as Shawn had suspiciously not texted or called him to mention mundane/strange things like "I'm out of yoghurt" or "Do whales like bread?". He had originally gone to his office where he worked as a pharmaceutical salesman and Yes that is a perfectly respectable job!  But after no sign of Shawn's interference in his life he began to panic as Shawn does tend to get himself into A Lot of stupidly dangerous situations.

He checked the Psych office and then called Juliet who roped him into a case somehow when he wasn't even psychic and has an actual job to get back to. 

Of course it didn't come as much of a surprise when, not even ten minutes after Jules told him that Lassiter was coming, Shawn texted him the address of where he was currently standing.

.........

Jules was completely stumped with her new case and it didn't look like her partner was even going to show up for work today which she really should be more concerned about because he quite literally never misses a day he doesn't have to.

Unfortunately Shawn had, according to a very frustrated Guster, disappeared. She also probably should have been way more concerned about this than she was aswell but the case had her so confused already that her brain couldn't take any more mysteries.

Her and Gus ended up trying to solve this case together and they worked quite well together. They had a good rhythm going but neither of them could discover any more clues after about fifteen minutes at the scene of the crime. Then finally her partner showed up, with Shawn?

......

As they arrived at the scene Shawn could see multiple police cars and police tape surrounding the area. It was at the end of a row of houses where the road continued, forest on either side of it. Juliet spotted them and waved them over.

"Hang on is that?" Gus said, staring past the cars to see who had just arrived.

"Oh that's just Lassiter. I'll wave him over."
Jules told him but Gus didn't stop staring.

"Oh What?!" Gus exclaimed making Jules turn and look at him sceptically before having a look at Lassie's car herself.

"Oh well I guess they are both here now."
She said watching as Shawn got out of the car, walking up to them with Lassie.

"Shaaaawwwwn!!!!" Gus yelled, all thr surrounding officers immediately snapped their heads around to see the danger but all they saw was Gus striding over to Shawn who currently looked like a frightened meerkat.

"H-Hey Bud."

"Oh don't you hey Bud me Shawn! You went missing for hours where the fuck were you?!"

"Umm well I was hanging out with Lassie over here." Shawn answered him, pointing his thumb in Lassie's direction. Lassie himself looked like he had been caught chasing squirrels again.

"Why? How? What?" Gus was extremely confused.

Juliet decided this was the perfect time to come and calm down the conversation with a little discussion of Is It Murder.
"Hi Shawn, nice to see you are okay. Come on Partner we've got work to do and actually Shawn you are already hired for this Case so please don't hold back."

(Like they would ever hold back anyway)
