DREAM KINGS (Shawn Mendes x Harry Styles)

C h a p t e r [34]

"You okay?" I ask, trying to get him to talk to me.

"I'm always okay. Why'd you ask?" He finally answered but in an unpleasant tone.

"What's wrong with you now?"

"Nothing's wrong. Now stop asking and just get to work."

"Whoa. Okay, chill out Mr. Moody Jerk."

"Shut up already Meanie Stalker."

I groan with a roll of eyes. After just a few moments, Shawn and I finished decorating the stage. I look behind me to check if what Luke's doing but he was not where I expected him to be.

Shawn moves backwards and appreciated what the both of us did, he pushes and stretched his back and moaned. That's it. The final decor.

"Come on." He says.

"Where?"

"To Lori."

"Why?"

"Why're you asking so much?"

"Why can't you just answer them?"

"'Cause it's annoying." He starts to walk.

"Wait!"

I followed him upon finding Lori in the school building. We headed into the office and saw her there with Tippy.

"Hey Shawn, Hey May." Lori says.

Tippy moves quickly beside me and whispered, "How's things?"

"Fine, I guess?"

"Why does he look mad?"

I look at Shawn beside me, his looks unhappy.

"I don't know. He's just like that. Looking like a demon." I whispered back.

Shawn suddenly scooped me with one arm, pulling me closer to his side, "Yeah, we're finished with the decorations. Mind if we go home now?" He asks.

He honestly smells so good though he's been wearing the same short all throughout the day. Lori and Tippy's face looks like they've just seen a ghost right after Shawn just pulled me closer to him with his arm.

"Yeah, you guys can." Lori says, "Wait.. are you guys..?"

"Yeah, yeah we are." Shawn answers.

"You guys look cute honestly!" Tippy adds.

Shawn smiles and his mood seemed to have changed for that short moment.

"We're gonna go now." He says, "Let's go babe."

I smiled at Lori and Tippy though I'm really asking for help. I removed his arm around me as soon as we got out. He wipes his arms as if he got some dirt on his skin.

My eyebrows creased and my mouth's draw open, "How dare you!"

He smirks, "Let's go."

"I hate you!"

We went out of the campus and walked home together that same Wednesday, almost twilight. On The last day of decorating everything for the peer building event tomorrow. Exhausting, but it's a little odd that he's quite quiet and not that talkative and bossy sometimes.

"I'll cook steak for dinner, that okay?" I ask while he sits in the living room.

He nods his head once, "And pancakes too."

"Pancakes at night?"

"Is that new to you? You even made pancakes for me in the middle of the night."
