[7] Wake Me Up

Picture of their fort on the top!

_ _ _ _

I woke up snuggled up against Shawn's chest, which was somehow shirtless now. Damn. This boy works out! I rolled around a bit, and realized that Aaliyah wasn't there anymore. I decided to get up, but failed, because of Shawn's iron grip on my waist. I could hear him mumble something after he pulled me back. It was somewhere along the lines of "Stop it," or "I'm sleeping".

I couldn't help but giggle at his adorableness. I've only known him for two days, but I'm telling you; he's starting to grow on me. But how could he not; though? I mean, he's practically perfect. His smile, his hair, his lazy eye, the way he smiles at anything. I could literally listen to his songs everyday for the rest of my life, and I'd never get tired. I especially love how he is so sweet with Aaliyah. Unlike most teenage boys, who all hide their emotions just for the sake of their manliness. I just find that so amazing about him.

I snapped out of my thoughts, and I attempted to wake him up again. This time, I slapped his face lightly. "Shawn, come on. Wake up!" He groaned once more, but after a couple of seconds, his eyelids fluttered open, revealing his beautiful brown eyes; one of the many reasons why I began liking him in the first place.

All of a sudden, Shawn whisper/sings the lyrics to the song 'Wake Me Up' by Ed Sheeran.

"You will never know just how beautiful you are to me. But maybe i'm just in love, when you wake me up"

He stopped singing, and I could feel my cheeks turning warm from what he just did. I looked up shyly and flashed him a small smile.

To keep him from making fun of me, I tried to be funny and tell him jokingly "Ew. You need to go brush your teeth.."

This time, he turns a bright red. He started to get up,and I burst out laughing.

"You're so cute!"

He blushed once more, and scratched the back of his neck. Then he finally left our fort.

After a few moments of just laying there, I decided to brush my teeth as well.

In the morning, I like to listen to music while getting ready. So I took my black beats headphones, and blast Pentatonix as I walked into my bathroom. I went to the sink, and grabbed my toothbrush.

I started to brush my teeth while dancing to 'Can't Sleep Love'. I began to wash my face with my facial cleanser. Then I rinsed my face off under the tap.

When I looked up next, I nearly crapped my pants. Shawn stood right behind me with a towel wrapped dangerously loose around his waist. His hair was dripping wet,  and I could see his V line. No wonder I never heard him leave the room.

I pushed away my stupid thoughts once I remembered what was happening. I turned bright red, and I blurted "I-- Uh, Sorry! I didn't know you were in here!"

Then I practically ran out the bathroom. I heard Shawn's laughter echo from the bathroom. Why am I so awkward?!
