Y/N's POV

I turn over and over in bed, trying to get comfortable. My mind has just been a pile of mush; with my grandmother's passing recently and exams just around the corner; life isn't going well. Shawn, being the sweetheart he is, comes over every night to help me sleep.

Unfortunately, Shawn is in New York at the moment for business. He texted me this morning that he would be back by midnight tonight. It's currently 1:02 and I'm wide awake. My phone suddenly rings and a breath of relief releases. It's Shawn.

"Hey darling..I just got to my house..are you okay?"

Hearing his voice calms me down but a lump in my throat rises at the thought of my grandmother. The memories of our last minutes together flood in my head. "Just please come over Shawn..I need you" I sniff

Shawn sighs through the line "Already on the way darling, just hang on for 10 minutes" I nod my head even though he can't see me and hang up.

I sip on my water I brought upstairs with me before bed. I heard it calms people down. My heart misses Shawn more than anything right now. I just need him to comfort me.

My grandmother has been a huge part of my life. She's been there for me through my ups and downs way before Shawn came into my life. Before she died, she always told me how well Shawn is treating me. She said he reminds her of my grandfather. He sadly passed when I was 5.

Grandmother wrote me a letter and placed my name in her will that she left behind. I get to keep all of her jewelry and her and grandfather's wedding rings. I treasure them both around my neck on a silver chain.

In the letter, grandmother told me to love and cherish life, to love the ones around you because you'll live a happy afterlife if done so. She also gave Shawn and I's relationship her blessing, telling Shawn to marry me one day. My heart swelled but my face flushed with embarrassment.

We're still young. Barely adults yet. We still need to learn about one another. But deep down I know Shawn Peter Raul Mendes is the one for me.

Time passes and my anxiety starts to come in. My heart is racing, sweat patches on my forehead and I feel like I can't breathe. My eyes begin to water until I hear quiet footsteps coming up the stairs.

"Shawn?" My heart quickens

Shawn comes through the door quietly, letting out a sigh at the sight of me. "Oh darling" He rushes to me and I instantly throw my arms around his neck, pulling him in bed with me.

The tears begin to flow as I sob into his shoulder blade. "It hurts so much Shawn. I-I can't breathe" I sob

Shawn pulls away, switching positions with me. He sits up against my headboard and pulls me into his lap. His arms circle around my waist and my hands lay on his chest.

"Just breathe, baby" I nod and take a deep breathe and release it. Doing this twice helped calm my nerves. We stare at each other for a second before I pull him in for another hug.

"I missed you Shawn" I whisper

He squeezes me tighter at my response, "I missed you too darling, you have no idea"

We pull away again. Shawn takes his left hand, caressing my cheek with his thumb to wipe away the tears. I stopped sobbing because Shawn's here now which made me feel a lot better.

"I love you Y/N, so so much. You know I'll always be here for you, when you need me" Our foreheads are pressed together as he whispers sweet things to me.

"Thank you, for always being here for me. I don't know what would've happened if you've never came into my life" I smile softly as I look into his gorgeous brown eyes.

He kisses my nose making me giggle. "I love you too Shawn" And then we're kissing.

The kiss is passionate, hungry and desperate. We've never properly kissed in weeks since the funeral. I've been too depressed to do anything. But missing Shawn for almost two weeks triggered something in me.

Shawn pulls me closer against his chest as I kiss down his jaw to his neck, finding his sweet spot instantly. "Right there" He moans

I nibble and lick the spot, leaving my mark on him as he moans my name. "I l-love you Y/N" He pants. I smile and kiss his swollen lips as he takes his turn, leaving a mark between my neck and collarbones.

We lay next to each other in my bed. My head rested under his chin, my hands on his chest. His arms is around my waist and our legs and feet are tangled.

He places a kiss to my forehead. "Goodnight darling, I love you" He whispers.

"I love you too Shawn" I look up at him and he has a huge grin on his face. He leans down to kiss me on the lips before we fall asleep. Getting back to our nightly routine.

I don't know about you guys but I would totally want Shawn coming over every night to help me sleep. I would never have trouble sleeping again.
