Shawn Mendes Imagines

Those words

Growing up, I learned how to speak French and took a huge interest in the culture, mostly because my family has roots there. My boyfriend, Shawn, knew this about me, I mean it was kind of hard to miss. I even had a France flag hanging in my room.

But anyway, I've tried to teach him to speak some French, but the darn boy just can't learn it. We have spent hours laying on his bed, legs tangled up together and my head on his chest, practicing French, but the next day, we won't remember any of it. Like I said, helpless.

Anyway, Shawn and I have been dating for about 7 months, but still haven't said those three special words to each other. You know, the "it" words. I know I'm ready to say it, but I don't know if he is. I decided to let him say it first, because I don't want to ruin anything we have by rushing him. There have been so many times where I swear he's so close to saying it, but then chickens out.

Today, he is coming over after lunch to just hang out and be lazy with me. And, speak of the devil, my bedroom door opens to show the beautiful face of my boy. I instantly grin at him, even just seeing him makes my day better. I get up to greet him with a kiss and to pull him onto my bed with me. I started to tell him about my day, while he stared at me. He just looked at me, making me feel insecure. "What?" I asked him with a confused look on my face.

He just sighed, shook his head, and kept looking.

"I know there's something you want to say. You don't have to be afraid," I urged on.

He finally spoke, "It's just that...I- well you- it's-... can't say it." 

"Baby, what is it? You're worrying me," I said concerned.

"It's...I just... okay.. Je t'aime, Yasmine," he admitted.

My heart melted when he said that. He finally learned how to say something in French and he just told me he loved me in the most adorable way ever! I quickly responded back, "I love you, too, so much".

He placed his lips on mine kissed me with more passion than ever before. I pulled away to breath and be took me in his arms and gave me one of his famous bear hugs. We laid there in each other's arms, thinking over what had just happened and repeating the words to each other, without it ever getting old.
