VOTE & COMMENT PLEASE <3
The distance between you and Shawn had become increasingly more and more noticeable. Your friends began asking if you two were still together, since you two barely went out together anymore. It's a question that's begun to plague you, too.
Currently, you were sitting on the bed, scrolling down your Instagram feed. It was nearing two in the morning, and Shawn was still out. You had gotten a Snapchat from Geoff a few minutes ago, he was with Shawn at some bar, rewarding themselves for finishing another song for his next album.
You locked your phone, and sat back against the headboard of the bed, and thought about your relationship with Shawn. It had been months since you two went on a date, even longer since you two had sex. He was rarely home anymore, either out with the guys, writing for the album, or travelling for promotion. Hell, you couldn't remember the last time you spoke to Shawn other than pleasantries in the morning as you washed your face.
The door opening startled you, and you were quick to cover yourself and act like you were sleeping. You felt Shawn rub your ankle, and that's when you knew he knew you weren't asleep.
"Hey, are you ok? You're usually asleep by now." Shawn frowned, toeing off his shoes.
"Yeah, I'm fine." You spoke, your voice sounding alien-like even to you.
Shawn narrowed his eyes, and quickly changed into the jogger bottoms he's been wearing to bed lately. "You don't sound fine. What's on your mind?"
Debating on whether or not to tell him the truth, you went with your gut and decided to tell him. "Us."
"What about us?"
"Our future."
"Oh?"
You looked at Shawn, and bit your lip. "Or lack thereof."
"What?"
You fidgeted with the top of the sheet, not sure how you wanted to phrase your words. "Um, do you- we don't- are we still dating?"
Shawn seemed flabbergasted by your question, since he blinked about five times before he was able to come up with a response. "What do you mean are we still dating? Of course, I love you so much." He paused, and looked at you. "Why?"
"We don't seem like a couple, Shawn. We barely see each other anymore. I can't remember the last time we went on a date, hell, I don't remember the last time we ate breakfast together!" You spoke, voice rising. "I don't know if I can do this anymore."
Shawn was quick to grab your hands, and he shushed you as tears began to form. "Hey, it's ok, I can fix this. I promise I can make this right."
"That's the problem, Shawn." You tugged your hands free. "I don't know if I want this fixed. I don't know if this can be fixed. If we can be fixed."
At Shawn's silence, you continued. "I think, I think I've fallen out of love, Shawn. I don't know if I love you anymore."
That was quite possibly the worst thing you could've said, because it sent Shawn into overdrive. "What do you mean? Just sleep the night, ok? Sleep can do wonders for your thoughts, remember what you used to tell me in high school?"
Nodding, you wiped a stray tear away. "Mhmm, but Shawn, this- I've been thinking about this for a while."
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"Didn't know how."
Shawn sighed, chewing on his lip. "I can't watch you leave, love. I love you too much for that."
"Shawn, I can't stay. If I stay, I'll never leave." You spoke softly, pushing some hair away from your face. "I'm sorry Shawn."
"Just the night? Whether it's wrong or it's right, I've just gotta make sense of all of this."
"Shawn," You sighed, trying to reason with him/
The singer ran a hand through his curls, eyes bouncing across the room. "Just, um, promise me you'll sneak out when I'm asleep then. I can't watch you leave."
You looked at the clock, he had been home for almost an hour, and still hasn't been able to sleep. "Shawn, you should sleep. You need rest for your day."
"Can you do one last thing, before you um, go?"
"What is it?" You asked, discreetly grabbing your necessities you needed to leave.
"Act like you love me, so I can go on?"
