Exposed//Shawn Mendes

29

After about 3 days Shawn and I were all over the media. "Shawn and his new girlfriend/assistant, spotted with all smiled and fun time at the cafe in his hometown..." Most fans were happy that Shawn's "found love" others think I'm not good enough and even some just don't care. Ever since that day and that kiss Shawn's been so much more... nice. I expected everything to go by like normal while we're alone, occasional insults, nasty looks, all that hot jazz but no. He's been complimenting me on my work, actually instructing me to do things within reason and even invited me to his going away party this weekend... well I mean I'm kinda living here with him so I don't know why I wouldn't be but the fact that he adressed me about it was nice. Maybe Shawn felt something from that kiss too...

I sighed as I laid in the bed of Shawns guest room looking through my Instagram seeing pictures of Shawn kissing me at the cafe. As I was scrolling my phone froze for a second before my mom's video chat request popped up. I slid my finger across the screen answering the call.

"Leila Sarah Harris!!" My mom squealed in excitement. Making me jump.
"What? What did I do?!" I asked.
"Why didn't you tell me you and Shawn were dating?!" She asks.
"Mom I'm... I..." I wanted to tell her it was all an act but realized it goes against the contract. She is my mother but this is also my job.
"I didn't say anything because I knew you'd get this way." I laughed nervously.
"Oh stop it, I won't torture you about it... but you guys do look cute together, so much better than Daniel honestly. "

"Mother..." I scolded her.
"What? It's true, that 27-year-old creep, prying on such a young lady like you. It was disgusting." She scoffed.
"Mom let's not talk about him alright? I'm still kinda hurt by the whole thing that happened with him. " I said in an annoyed tone. 
"Ok! Ok sorry, dear. I'm just happy you're with someone as great as Shawn." My mom sighs in content making me roll my eyes. 
"Is this why you called?" I asked.
"No, I called because I was wondering when you were going to come home and visit your poor old mother and little brother?"
"Oh... yeah sorry I've been meaning to but I'm still Shawn's assistant so I've been busy," I explained. 
"Mmmhmm busy I'm sure." Mom winks at me.
"Mom! Ew!" I exclaimed. 
"Oh please don't get all shy on me, I know you and Shawn have already had sex."
"Moooooom!" I groaned in disgust.
"What it's only natural, just make sure your birth controls still good."
"Mom I'm never going to visit you now I'm going to stay with Shawn forever. "
"Fine by me. I'll send you the rest of your things." She shrugged.

"Ugh."
"Anyways why don't you come home today?" My mom suggests. 
"Well I can't Shawn is doing a concert today at 7 and he insists that his girlfriend attends."
"Ooooh a concert, that gives me a perfect idea, take Drew with you! He's been obsessed with Shawn since you guys left."
"Oh, mom I don't know if Shawn will let me-"
"Let you? He's your boyfriend, go ask him now, I'll wait on the line."
"But mom-"
"Leila..." She scolded me. I groaned before throwing the blanket off of me and kicking my feet over the bed. I stood up and walked towards the door.

I walked out of my room and went next door to Shawns room. I stood outside and knocked.

"Leila what are you doing? Go in, he's your boyfriend." My mom instructed me.
"That's an invasion of privacy," I said looking back down at my phone.
"Oh please, just open the door." She rolled her eyes. I placed my hand on the doorknob and jiggled it pretending it was locked.
"Well can't ask him now, guess I'll do it later," I said. I was about to walk away when I heard the door click. I looked back over to see Shawn in nothing but his underwear as he opened the door.

"O-Oh. Sorry, babe I just-"
"What?" Shawn asks as he furrowed his brows and looked around. I held up my phone to show him I was on a call with my mom.
