Savannah POV

I hear my phone start buzzing and I jump slightly. Shawn holds me closer and his soft snores ring in my ears. I lean over and grab my phone turning my ringer off. It's 5 in the morning and I can barely keep my eyes open. I groan and roll over hiding myself into Shawn's chest. 

I have been dreading this moment from the second I walked into his arms when I got here. I sigh and roll out of bed. I grab my clothes and change in the bathroom, throwing my hair in messy bun and slipping my flip flops on. I walk out and pack the rest of my things. 

I zip up my bag and notice that I need to leave now or I'll miss my flight. I'd be lying if I say that purposely missing my flight that way I have an extra day with Shawn doesn't cross my mind. I snap a quick picture of his shirtless self sleeping soundly in bed. 

He needs to sleep because he has a meet and greet today and we were up late last night. I rub my eyes and walk over to him. I lean down and kiss his cheek. I start to walk away when his hand finds mine. 

"Where are you going?" He says in his groggy sleep voice. 

"Shawn I have to go to the airport." I whisper as he tries to pull me back to bed. His eyes fly open and he notices my bag on my back. 

"What? Why didn't you wake me?" He says getting up and grabbing his shirt.

"No, go back to bed. I'll see you when you get home next week." I say shaking my head. 

"No I am taking you to the airport. I want to spend every last second with you." He says looking into my eyes. I blush and nod knowing that he isn't gonna do anything else. 

We get into the car and he rests his head in my lap. I run my fingers threw his hair. The drive to the airport is about an hour and a half. I want Shawn to sleep that way he can be rested for his day. I lean down and kiss the side of his head and he looks at me with a smile. 

"I love you." He whispers. I smile and whisper it back. I feel his fingers grip my legs as he takes a deep breath. I notice his breathing become even and his snoring is back. I smile knowing that he is really tired. 

"Ma'am." I hear as someone taps my leg. I open my eyes and see the driver looking at me. "We made it." He smiles. I smile back and look at Shawn who is still napping in my lap. 

"Shawn." I lightly shake his shoulder. 

"Huh?"

"We're here." I say. 

"NO" He whines. 

"Come on." I say pushing him up. We both get out and the driver stays and waits for Shawn. 

Shawn walks me into the airport and we walk to the security center. I look at Shawn and see the sadness on his face. 

"I don't want you to leave." He says intertwining his fingers with mine. 

"I don't want to leave." 

"Then don't" He smiles. I smirk and look down. 

"As tempting as that is, I can't miss anymore school." I say looking at him. 

"I know." He whines. 

"I love you and I'll see you in what? Two weeks." I say. 

"Two weeks too long." 

"Yeah but what did you say, we'll face time every morning and night. And we'll text every minute of every day." I mock him. He rolls his tired eyes at me. 

"It's not gonna be the same. I have had you alone for three days. I have slept next to you for three nights. I have been able to hold your hand or kiss you whenever I want to. Now you won't even be here." He says stepping closer to me. I check his watch and sigh as I need to leave. 

"I love you." I say up to him. I notice a tear in his eyes. "Shawn." I say wiping his tear away. 

"I'm sorry, I am just so in love with you. I don't want you to leave." He says shaking his head. 

"Stop. Look at me. I love you so much but in two weeks you'll hold me in your arms. I'll make fun of your hair and dirty jokes. But good news, I can do that over the phone." I say earning a laugh from him. 

"I love you." He says and kisses my lips hard. I kiss him back and he pulls me so close that we could be one. 

"I love you Mendes." I say pulling away. He laughs and I start to walk to security. He is still holding my hand. Our hands start to separate and he hooks his finger with mine. I almost cry as they separate and I walk through security. 

The flight home was long and boring. I had no connection so I'll text Shawn when I get home. My brother and Aaliyah meet me at he airport. Aaliyah engulfs me in a huge hug and my heartbreaks because it reminds me of Shawn's hugs. I feel a tear fall and I quickly wipe it away before anyone can notice. 

"How's Shawn?" My brother asks.

"He is good, I mean was. He was pretty upset when I left." I say getting in the passenger seat. 

"Really? Did he cry?" Aaliyah asks with a smirk.

"No he didn't cry." Lie. "He just didn't want me to leave." I say looking down in my lap. My brother rubs my shoulder and I smile at him. I get my phone out and check my service. I finally have service and I text Shawn. 

iMessage to Mendes<3: I made it home. I miss you so much. Thank you for the most amazing time. 

iMessage from Mendes<3: God I miss you so much you have no idea.

I smile at the message and click my phone off. 

This is going to be a long two weeks.
