All of Me (Shawn Mendes) BOOK ONE

Chapter 9

Apparently I'd slept through dinner, because I woke up in a soft bed next to Shawn. I sat up and stretched, the light shining through the windows and sliding glass door. We were in the room on the third floor. The room was shaped like half of a huge stop-sign, with the bed at the wall that had two extra corners. On the opposite wall, a set of sliding glass doors let out onto a huge, white-wooded veranda that outlooked the private beach. Also, we had our own bathroom.

I folded the white covers back and swung my legs over the edge. Shawn was still fast asleep, so I didnt bother with him. I grabbed a pair of loose shorts and shirt and headed into the bathroom.

It was peach colored, with a shower in one corner and a big Jacuzzi type bathtub along side the face wall. The sink was deep and double sided. On one wall, there was an assortment of shelves that held white and peach plush towels and wash rags.

I grabbed one of each and twisted the shower's knobs. There was a waterfall of jets on each of the walls of the shower, and also a small bench to sit on. It looked like it would come in handy who I shaving my legs. I was about to grab my shampoo, conditioner, and body wash when something metallic caught my eye.

I turned back towards the shower and saw pumps hanging off the wall. I got in the shower and smelled the one with an 'S' on it. It smelled like a professional shampoo, so I used a good amount on my hair. I finished with my hair and found that the body soap was strawberry-scented with little moisture beads in the wash.

After rinsing the bubbles off, I reluctantly shut off the dream shower and stepped out. The towels were soft, so I burried my face in one. I wrapped my towel in a smaller towel and my body in another larger one. I walked over to the sink and found that the mirror wasn't foggy at all. I really love this bathroom. Can I take it home with me? I thought to myself. I turned on a hairdryer that was attatched to a space by the mirror. I dried my hair and brushed through it with my comb from the beach. Afterwards, I got dressed and headed out of the bathroom to get something to eat.

The kitchen was stupendous. Every appliance was a light grey stainless steel and looked extremely expensive. The counters were white granite with gold specks in them. Lilies sat on the island. I opened one side of the fridge and found bananas, strawberries, and blueberries. I set them on the counter then grabbed the milk and some other items like vanilla yogurt and ice from the freezer.

I blended the fruits in a blender after cutting them up. I waited for them to get liquidy then I added the milk and yogurt. I mixed those and added the other ingredients and the ice. I poured the smoothies into two tall glasses and put half a strawberry on the edge and sprayed whipped cream on the top. It looked really good, but I wanted to wait for Shawn. I put them in the fridge then I went to find pancake mix and bacon.

I found bacon in the freezer and popped it in the microwave so it would defrost. Then I added the water to the pancake mix and stirred in some spices like cinnamon and a dash of nutmeg. I finished stirring the mix and found a pan and some Pam spray. I sprayed the bottom of the pan and waited for it to heat up on the flat top stove. I also found blue glass plates and a spatula. I flipped the two pancakes I had cooking until they were golden and repeated the process until I had about 8, also cooking a substantial amount of bacon at the same time. I would only eat like 3, and I knew Shawn would eat an entire elephant if he could. I buttered them and put them on each plate. I drizzled maple syrup over the pancakes then I put a lot of bacon on each plate, setting them on a table. I got out our smoothies and ascended the stairs so I could wake up Shawn.

When I got into the room and found the bed empty. I knocked on the bathroom door.

"Shawn? You in there?" I asked.
