nervous

Shawn and you were walking almost an hour long through London. It was late night so, you and him could've enjoyed this city, without any disturbance by fans. No, you didn't hate it all, his fans were super cute but Shawn wanted to have some private time with you tonight.

"Have you heard about this retro styled cafe? Shall we go there?" Shawn asked you. He never stopped talking about this Cafe and you secretly wanted to see it.

"Sure, sure,"

"You'll love it,"

And he was right, it looked a little bit like the cafe from the movie "to all the boys i've loved before", but your vintage heart loved it so much.

"Can we get two strawberry milkshakes, please?" Shawn said to the waitress.

"Oh Mendes, you rarely drink something with Strawberry in it, is this a progress?" you giggled.

"Don't get used to it, y/n. I just try to understand why you love it so much,"

He always tried to do anything to understand your taste. For an example to try your favorite food, listening to some sad songs just to understand what you have been through. And he never got tired of it.

"Why did you never offered me a strawberry Milkshake? Wow, this is just amazing," Shawn said. It was funny to watch him,  how much he adored it.

"I always offered you one. You just didn't want to taste them!"
You caught him staring at you, which wasn't the first time. He always was nervous around you, staring at you or his hands got really sweaty.
What was you doing to him?

"Uhm, should we go? I could bring you home,"

You just gave him a quick nod. Of course, it made you think what was going on with him. You liked Shawn, even more than just friends, but you knew that this all was just something you made up in your mind.

"Well, welcome to London! Finally you can see the rainy London too!" You sarcastically laughed. You had enough from the rainy weather here in London. Shawn took his umbrella out and he hold you close by his side. It made you nervous. Yeah, you were near him a lot, but this was something else.

"Would you not like to come in?"

No response.

"Shawn?"

"What? Yeah,... yeah sure,"
After months he was finally able to see your new apartment.
Suddenly, Shawn started to talk so much, you were amazed by it.

"And wow this view and then this piano... I just- your kitchen! I love- wait do I talk to much?" He shyly asked you.

"No, I mean yes you do, but I like what I do to you," you smiled.

We were playing video games, laughing our lungs out until he got a call from Brian that he should go back to his hotel now.

"Shawn, good luck on your album release tomorrow! I'm proud of you,"

He nervously gave you a warm embrace and whispered a "thank you, darling" in your ear, you loved him.

--------

25th May
His album would be released today and you were so excited and so proud of him.

Nervous was playing now and you immediately started to pay more attention to the lyrics than to his voice.

"We walked in the rain a couple blocks to your apartment
You told me to come inside, caught me staring in your eyes
And I'm not usually like this
But I like what you're doing to me,"

This was not just a song text. Last week you were walking with him in the rain to your apartment, you caught him staring, and you said that you like what you're doing to him. This was more than coincidence.
It was dedicated to you, you were absolutely sure about it.
Not even to think about it, what you'll say to Shawn, you searched his number and called him.

"Shawn, I just need to ask you something. Is nervous about me?"

"Why would you think that?" he questioned you. You exactly knew how he wanted to avoid this topic so much.

"Stop. These are my words, Shawn. It tells our story. Can you just be honest with me?"

"I- I, yes it is. You were an inspiration for this song and I hope you didn't get that mad, that I told them a little bit about our story,"
Your heart melted. You knew he would never put you in a bad position.

"Uhm, no it isn't. Actually, I loved it a lot. I can't talk with you right now, but Shawn?"
You heard how he took a long breath.

"Yeah?"

"You make me nervous too,"

~~~~~

First, nervous is THAT bitch.
When I heard it live, ugh man he could destroy me with his guitar.
This was low key a short imagine and really a bad one.
I love you all xx
