Shawn Mendes Imagines

Bad Dream

I sat up in bed, my breathing heavy and my body shaking. I looked around the dark room I sat in. At first I could not see anything until my eyes adjusted to the darkness. A tear trickled down the side of my face as I recalled the nightmare I had just had. Frightened I reached over to the other side of the bed, expecting to wake a sleeping Shawn. The palm of my hand hit nothing but the bed's sheets. Where was he?

I reached over and grabbed a small blanket that was tousled at the foot of the bed. As I got up I wrapped the blanket over my shoulders and hugged it around myself. I carefully walked down the dark hallway to the stairs. I could see the light from the living room Tv flashing on the walls as I made my way down the stairs.

Once I was on the last step of the staircase I could see Shawn, he sat on the couch and stared at the Tv. The Tv played some type of cartoon. Shawn hadn't noticed my presence yet, that was until I walked off of the last step of the stairs and the floor creaked beneath my foot. Shawn's head turned to face me. It looked as if he wasn't expecting to see me out of bed.

"Hey Baby, what are you doing up?" He asked with a small smile.
"I had a bad dream." I said with a shaky breath as I made my way over to him. His smile faltered.
"Awe, Babe." He said, expanding his arms open, waiting for me to sit on his lap. I sat on his lap and wrapped my arms around his torso, my legs were laid out on the next cushion. He pulled my head against his chest and stroked my hair slowly.

"You want to talk about it?" He asked. I didn't respond. I didn't want to relive the nightmare. I pulled back one of my arms from his torso and placed my hand on his chest. I rubbed his chest through his shirt in circular motions, liking the way the fabric felt against the palm of my hand. The bottom of my eyes began to pool with tears and the tears fell when my eyes couldn't hold the salty water any longer.

"You left me." I cried, the pool of tears slowly making their way down my face.
"I what?" Shawn mumbled. I knew that he had heard what I said. Shock had caused him to ask the question he had already known the answer too.
"Awe Babe," he said as he had me sit up and face him, "it was only a dream.".

"It felt real." I cried, causing him to wipe my tears away with his finger tips.
"It wasn't real Babe." He said as he brushed a strand of hair out of my face. It was hard to control the tears that fell from my eyes.
"Hey, look at me," Shawn said, "stop crying. This way you can see me better." He chuckled causing me to smile. He dropped his hands from my face as I brought mine up to my eyes to wipe away the tears. He grabbed my hands from my face and held them on my lap.

"I'm not going to leave you. I couldn't." He said. He placed one of his hands on my cheek and brushed his thumb against my face.
"I love you." He whispered. He then leaned his face towards me and slowly pressed his lips to mine. I believed him when he said it but the kiss gave the actual proof. I pulled away from his lips slowly and looked into his eyes.
"I love you too." I mumbled as I wrapped my arms around his neck and hugged him.

We stayed like that for five minutes. I closed my eyes and felt his chest rise and fall while he breathed, as he watched the cartoons he had previously been watching before I had come downstairs. When I heard the music that went along with the credits I mumbled in Shawn's ear.
"Can you come with me to bed?". When I pulled my face back to look at him he nodded as a response.

He carried me up the stairs 'bridal style' and all the way to our room. He placed me on the bed before going to change. Then he crawled into bed and laid right against me, making me feel cozy. He lifted the covers over our bodies before wrapping his arms around me.

"I'm right here Babe." He said reaching for one of my hands and entwining our fingers together.
"Go to sleep. I'll be here when you wake up.". And with one kiss from him on the cheek, I closed my eyes and fell asleep with a peaceful mindset.
