Home/Shawn Mendes

Part 119

Maya:

When we arrived back home, I went straight back to bed. I should've actually been released by Firday, but we got to convince them to let me got today.

Now both Skyler and I are back home.

"Does she like the room?" I asked weakly, chuckling, as he walked into the room with her in his arms.

"Yes. She immediately started playing with the strings hanging above her bed." He chuckled, placing her down between the two of us as he too, laid down on the bed.

"Are you tired?" He asked, cupping my cheek and gently caressing with the pad of his thumb. I only nodded. To tired to speak. "Get some sleep hunny." He pecked my forehead and just after I felt the small little hand of my baby girl, on my cheek.

I slowly opened my eyes to smile at her, and as I did, she started giggling, her gums showing. "She's so beautiful. And so adorable." I chuckled, kissing her little face, only making her giggle more.

I pecked Shawn's lips before taking his hand in mine and falling asleep. He might get up later, steal Skyler from me and leave me on the bed.

But I knew that already.

That I'll have no time with my girl on some days, because he'll completely take over.

-

Just as I predicted.

I woke up to and empty bed.
No Skyler.
No Shawn.

"I promise to hold you close and be there everyday.
I swear I love you more, no matter what you say.
And if we lost it all and there's nothing we could do,
Oh I'll try my best for you."

I heard him softly singing he song he wrote for our wedding.

Funny how it perfectly fits in with his relationship with Skyler. He told me he'll do anything in his might to protect her, love her and be there for her. No matter how hard the times may get.

He loves his girl.

More than I can possibly think or describe.

I smiled at I got up, walked to the hall and followed the sound of his guitar and angelic voice. All the way to Skyler's room.

"Oh I'll try my best for you." He ended, seeing him sat next to her bed, smiling as he looked down at her. I leaned against the doorway of her room, watching him getting up, putting his guitar down and tucking her in as she drifted off to sleep.

"Hey." He whispered, approaching me. "That was beautiful." I smiled, feeling his arms wrapping around me from behind as we both watched her. "I got her to fall asleep. I've been trying to do that for the last half hour." He softly chuckled.

Skyler struggled to fall asleep the last teo days. Even in the hospital. We don't know if it's her lungs or what, but it's bothering because she needs to sleep.

"Well, now that she's asleep. We can have some alone time." I said, turning around in his arms and wrapping mine around his neck. "What do you have in mine?" He whispered.

I just smiled, pressing my lips to his and running my fingers through the hair at the nape of his neck.

I pulled away laughing. "I don't know. Maybe a movie or something." I said and he groaned as I took his hand in mine and walking downstairs. "Maya you can't do that!" He said, laughing as I smirked back at him.

"What so I can't kiss my own husband?" I asked, sitting down on his lap on the couch. Straddling him.

"You can. You must. But you can't kiss me so seductively and then just want to watch a movie." He said, feeling his hands traveling up my thighs, onto my hips and in under my shirt to my back.

"Who said we're actually going to watch a movie?" I looked at him with my eyebrows furrowed together. "Ooh." He smirked, pulling my closer to him and pressing his lips to mine.

We just started making out when we heard a cry from the bedroom. I sighed, pulling away and resting my forehead against his.

"So I guess that's it." He said, mumbling into my neck. "Guess so." I sighed, feeling him pecking my neck before we got up and walked upstairs to check on Skyler.

"Common baby girl you need to sleep. What's wrong?" I asked, picking her up as she cried onto my shoulder. I looked at Shawn and he had a sad look in his eyes. I guess he doesn't like it when Skyler is upset and when she cries.

"I'll take her now. You can go work on some music." I said, pecking his lips one more time before walking downstairs with Skyler and just holding her in my arms, trying to gether to calm down and fall asleep again.

It took me a while, but eventually she fell asleep in my arms.

I don't want to let her go, put her down or hand her over to Shawn because then she might just wake up again.

"I love you so much sweetie." I whispered to her, softly kissing her nose as I rocked her back and forth in my arms.

It's sad that she has this damage to her lungs. Even though she's normal, nor her life or lifestyle will ever be. From now on, she'll be in the spotlight and everyone will know her name.

But that's not her fault. Not mine, nor Shawn's.

But it doesn't bother me, because when we're here, back Home, away from the world and all it's madness...

We're the most happy family ever.

Shawn:

After I successfully finished writing a new song, about my baby girl. I walked back tothe living room, finding Maya on the couch with Skyler in her arms.

"She asleep?" I whispered, crouching down infront of her and she only nodded with a big smile. "Look at this." She whispered and I slowly stood up, leaning over to look at her.

Her eyes are shut and her fingers are moving, like she's dreaming.

It looked adorable to see her moving like she's directing an orchestra.

I noticed her unregulated breathing, and it made me sad. "I wish she was okay. But I guess it'll getbetter over time, as she grows and her lungs grow stronger." I said softly after sitting down next to Maya.

"I believe it will. She just needs time for it to get better." Maya said, and I took her little hand in mine. She wrapped it around my finger, almost not letting go. A strong, firm grip she has on me.
And my heart

I love my girls wih all my heart.

Nothing an nobody can replace them.
