I lay on the couch with my back against Shawn's chest and my feet propped up against the back of the chair. Our two children, Noah- aged 17 and Eliza- aged 15, were laying across the floor with old photographs of Shawn and I, themselves as children and different cities which Shawn had visited during tour, placed out in front of them.

Noah, wasn't too fussed on how you and Shawn met but Eliza on the other hand, she was fussed. She was growing up to become a hopeless romantic- just like you and loved watching romance films and reading romance novels but her favourite story of all time was yours and Shawn's.

"Dad, can you tell me how you and mom met again? Please" she begged as she looked up at him with the eyes she knew he couldn't resist.

"Oh, not again" Noah groaned.

"Shut up Noah" she snarked and he rolled his eyes.

"Fine, okay." Shawn said with a chuckle as he intertwined your fingers with his and you listened to him retell the story as if it was yesterday.

Shawn's POV

I pushed my way through the crowded hallways and finally arrived in the kitchen. Ian was leaning against the counter with Brian and a few other friends from my high school.

"Shawn!" He beamed. "You made it man!" He was slightly tipsy and greeted me by slapping my hand and pulling me to his chest.

"Of course, I wouldn't miss it for the world bro." He chuckled and I started to greet my friends and everyone who let onto me. I grabbed a beer for myself from the cooler, cracked it open and took a sip before realising that Lauren was missing. "Where's Lauren?"

"Oh, she's on her way. Her ship docked this morning so she was spending time with her family and then she's coming down at about 9:30, so she should be here abou-"

"Hey guys!" She beamed as she entered the room. She wrapped her arms tightly around me but I noticed a mop of  y/h/c behind her. She was staring out of the back window and at the pool in the garden. She released and moved over to Ian.

The y/h/c noticed me staring and laughed before smiling sweetly at me. She was dressed in a denim skirt, a white top which exposed her shoulders (a Bardot top) and she was carrying a pastel pink bag which had the letters Chloé written in gold. Is her name chloé? I thought to myself.

I would be lying if I said I didn't find her attractive cause she certainly was beautiful, her figured was almost flawless and her hair and makeup was done to perfection, but it seems I wasn't the only one who noticed. The majority of people in the room were discreetly turning their attention to her- boys looking at her with eyes filled with lust whilst girls looked at her with eyes filled with jealousy.

"Guys, this is y/n! My bestie from the cruise ship." Lauren gushed.

"Hi" she smiled as she greeted everyone. He accent was different to ours but her voice was smooth and soft.

Shortly after greeting everyone and learning their names, she was in the mist of a deep conversation with Lauren when I decided to make my move.

"Hey Lauren, y/n." I nodded towards her and she smiled at me again.

"Oh, silly me! I forgot Ian asked me to run to the store and get more drinks. Bye!" She said quickly before darting of leaving y/n and I alone.
