"Will you be my girlfriend?"

Oh. My. God. I don't even let the emotions run through me before I nod and tell him yes. He smiles brighter than a million stars and kisses me. Without a second of hesitation I kiss back and for that moment everything bad in my world melted away.

I never though this would happen, honestly. We got close so quickly but I guess that's what touring around a country with someone does to you.

He puts a necklace on me, a beautifully simple rose gold pendant, shaped like a rose. He whispers in my ear "You'll never be alone. When you miss me, hold this necklace. I may be far but never gone." I smile and nod, not being able to find the words to answer him.

He walks up to the microphone "Thank you everyone for letting me do this!" The fans were in on this?! I must have been blind to not have seen a word about it on Instagram or twitter.

He holds my hand and we walk off the stage, wrapped up in the moment that just happened. The entire team starts cheering as soon as they see us and I smile genuinely. This tour has drained me but I don't think I'll ever want it to end now.

Finally, Andrew let me share the bed with Shawn. It only took a whole relationship, ya know. No more waking up achy all the time on that pull out bed.

He's just playing with my hair and we listen to some quiet music in the background, not really talking. "Tomorrow, when I go with you to your house, are you gonna introduce me as your boyfriend or your boss? I need to know if I can kiss and hold my beautiful girlfriend or keep it low key." He asks me. I smile "I'll introduce you as my boyfriend, don't worry." I hear him whisper "Heck yeah!" under his breath and wrap his arms around me "Get some rest. We've got a busy day tomorrow." It takes me a few minutes to fall asleep but once I do, nothing's gonna wake me up.

~ Shawn Mendes POV

I have made a lot of good decisions in my life but I think this one is my favourite. She's mine! I can hold her, I can hug her, I can kiss her. Even if I couldn't do any physical stuff, just being able to talk to her. Make memories with her. God, I'm the luckiest man alive. She's sleeping peacefully in my arms and for now, nothing seems better than this.

I wake her up with breakfast in bed. I'm a hopeless romantic, okay? She eats in silence, it normally takes her a few minutes to act like a human and less than a zombie once she's woken up.

I let her finish while I get dressed. I decide to wear a dress shirt with dress pants since I'm meeting her parents today. I'm nervous as hell but what could go wrong? Yeah I probably shouldn't say that, I'll jinx myself.

I give her, her privacy while she gets dressed and does her morning routine.
I go out and talk with Geoff while I wait for her. It only takes her about 20 minutes but damn she looks good. I notice she's still wearing the necklace and I smile "Ready to go?" She nods while she puts her shoes on, taking her wallet.

We get a taxi and she sings along enthusiastically to Treat You Better that's playing on the radio. I laugh and sing along, realizing my mistake quickly when I see the taxi driver's jaw drop.

We have casual conversation for the rest of the drive and she pays for it. I was going to but she has ridiculous reflexes.

I hold her hand while we walk up to her house, squeezing it gently. She looks up at me before we go in "Just be yourself. You'll be okay." I take a deep breath as she knocks on the door. Someone quickly answers, who I assume is her mom.

They hug and her mom looks very happy "Sarah! You came! And Shawn, her boss. Guess you gotta keep an eye on crazy ones like her?" She jokes light heartedly.

Sarah smiles and corrects her "Not quite, he's my boyfriend." She smiles even wider "My baby is growing up! Congratulations you two! Come in, I've got lunch." I let out the breath I didn't know I was holding. That was way easier than I imagined.

Sarah goes off to talk to her mom more personally as I walk up to the room where her sister is staying. I promised I would surprise her and Sarah promised to perform. I'm not one to break my promises either.

I knock on the door to her room and wait. It doesn't take long for a bright eyed, red haired girl to answer. She stands in shock for a few seconds before jumping up and squealing. I laugh "Someone's excited this morning."

She hugs me and steps back "Shawn Mendes and my SISTER Sarah are DATING! I met Shawn Mendes..." She continues on a ramble for a while before calming down, politely asking for a picture. I take the picture and talk for a bit before going down to Sarah.

Her mom greets me "Oh Shawn! Let me show you Sarah's baby pictures." Hell yeah. "I'd love to see them, Mrs. Wilson." She goes off to get them and I look over at Sarah, who's mortified "Relax baby, I'm sure you were the best little girl in the world." She scoffs as her mom comes back, sitting beside me.

We look though the album and she tells me about Sarah as a kid. Sarah was a bit embarrassed at first but later gave up on caring. She was her mom's baby girl and now she's mine, for as long as my future will last. I hope.
