We are on the plane and I am terrified once again. Don't get me wrong I love traveling but I don't like the thought of actually being in the plane. Someone needs to invent a teleport machine already. We're 1 hour in and im quietly going insane. Shawn is writing away In that song book of his strumming keys as he goes not paying me any attention. I lay my head on his shoulder and before my eyes can spy into the book he closes it and sets down with his guitar wrapping his arm around me. I sigh enjoying his touch as he kissed my forehead and I almost instantly fell asleep.
-
"Wake up sleepy head" he shakes me slightly and I groan not moving. Thankfully Shawn decides to put his muscles to use and carry me to the cab. "Hey princess I have to run over to sound check so I'll be back later" he tells me and I frown half asleep. I'm not even aware that I'm holding tightly onto his arm until he lightly prys my hand off laughing . I instantly feel embarrassed and take the cab to the  hotel and settle in by that I mean go to sleep.

"Hey your up" Shawn smiled at me from the couch in my room. How does he always get into my room. "How was sound check?" I ask stretching. "It was okay I guess" I try to comb my fingers through my hair.  "I want you to be there tonight I have a surprise for you" he smiles "really? What are you hiding mendes?" I ask walking to the couch "You just have to come and find out" he smirks laying back and I frown. "Tell me" "no because then it would be ruined" I groan annoyed. He's laughing at me "trust me it's worth the wait"  I punch his arm "ouch!" he fakes pouting holding his arm I roll my eyes. "Come on let go to the beach" I look out the window and it's dark out. "Isn't it almost time for your show?" "We have about an hour it doesn't start until 7" "okay race you there!" I yell Running out the room.
-
"How do you run that fast?" I laugh he's out of breath bent over. "Because I'm fit unlike some people" I smirk flipping my pony tail off my shoulder. He look up at me with a creepy grin and before I can take off again I'm in the air being spun by Shawn. Our laughter fills the empty beach. When He sets me down I keep a good distance from him "oh it's war!" I scream throwing sand at him and we start a sand fight. Covered in sand we walk along the beach hand in hand laughing and sharing stories of our childhood. "Yea and I got the blame for Aaliyah be-" his phone rings cutting him off and we stop as he answers. "What!? How did she do that?" He ask concerned letting go of
My hand. "Okay, okay mom don't panic I'll be on the next flight" I can see the concern in his eyes as he runs his hands through his hair. "Is everything okay?" I ask he looking at me worried. "I'm sorry I know tonight was suppose to be dedicated to you but I have to get on the next flight home my moms panicking Aaliyah got into an accident at school and she's scared-" "it's okay Shawn, it's fine I'll always be here you can always give me your surprise but right now you need to be home with your family they need you so go" I smile comforting him as he press his lips to my cheek running back to the hotel.

-3weeks-

Sadly Shawn had an family emergency. His little sister broke her leg and he's been there through out the whole process from getting surgery to helping her around the house while his mother goes to work. Don't get me wrong we text and face time everyday but it's not the same. I never noticed it before but I'm falling for Shawn.

We've just arrived in California. These past week has sucked without Shawn of course Emily was happy for both her job and that Shawn and I weren't distracted by each other to take her orders. But it's just been so boring and lonely.

Now I'm laying in my bed trying to catch some sleep it's 1am and I'm still up.

-
I feel a sharp sting on my ass and I Yelp turning around. "Why aren't you wearing any pants?" I gasp seeing Shawn "Shawn!" I smile jumping on him wrapping my legs around him. "Oh my god I've missed you so much" I squeeze him tighter. "How's your sister?" I mumble into his neck. "She's doing better she gets the cast off next week" "that's good" I say still holding him "yea" we stand in silence enjoying each others comfort  "you smell so good" I mentally hit myself in the head I need to stop saying everything I'm thinking out loud "so do you" he laughs sitting on the bed with my legs still wrapped around his waist. "Are you going to tell me why you aren't wearing pants" he ask squeezing my bottom and I roll my eyes swatting his hand blushing. "Because I wasn't expecting anyone to break into my room" I smile hitting his chest softly before pulling down my over sized t shirt. "What if I wasn't the one who came into your room or what if I brought someone else with me" he ask serious and I roll my eyes "I'm serious" he tilts my chin a I smile lightly "I'm sorry" I mumble. "What was that?" He ask hooking a finger into the rim of my panties. I gasp placing my hand over his what has gotten into him "Shawn!" He laughs laying on the edge Of my bed and I follow laying on his chest . "I missed you a lot" I tell him and he holds me close to him. "I missed you more" I glance up at him and I can see him looking at me. Then he pulls me closer so we're at eye level. My stomach is fluttering and my heart is racing I can feel our heart beat going at the same pace as his chest is pressing against mines. I lean closer our lips meet moving in sweet bliss perfectly slow and I imagine fireworks going off around us and my subconscious is jumping up and down. We pull away smiling at each other my hands on his smooth jaw line "Finally". Shawn chuckles and I giggle against his lips.

"Come on time for bed" he tells me getting off the bed to take off his shirt. He pulls on a pair of sweats and I pull on a pair of leggings. We lay next to each other eyes locked. "I really like you" Shawn tells me and I press my lips against his again "and I you"
