Y/n pov

It was my birthday. He wasn't here. He was having fun on tour. And here I was sitting at home staring at the blank screen on the TV. Shawn is the best possible boyfriend ever (duh) and him not being here hurt a lot, but I understood. He has fans he can't always be there for me. Maybe next time, he'd be here... or not. You see it was currently 11am and usually Shawn would call or text but I haven't received any of those today.  Maybe he's just busy, or maybe he's just forgot. I wouldn't blame him if he forgot, I mean he has so much on his plate recently so why would he remember my birthday. I walked out of the guest room. Oh didn't I mention I was staying at Shawn's family home, because he didn't want me to be alone and go mad. Cute right. On my way downstairs I was greeted by a half-awake Aaliyah.

"Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to y/nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn happy birthday to youuuuuuuu" Aaliyah sang

I giggled and replied "Thanks"

"Happy birthday darling, here I made you some pancakes." Karen said

I thanked her with a hug and I sat on dining chair. Everyone began to eat there own breakfasts. But I started to play with my food, not really having an appetite to eat. Karen noticed and soon asked " Y/n why aren't you eating, is everything okay" she questioned with a worrying expression. "I'm fine, everything fine" I mumbled back trying to convince her with a fake smile.

"Sweetie, tell me whats bothering you" karen said as she put a hand on my shoulder in an attempt to comfort me.

"Nothing's wrong, I promise you everythings fine"

"Okay, if you say so" Karen said as she took her and Aaliyah's dish to the kitchen

"Mom, im just going to go and do that thing now" Aaliyah said whilst heading towards the door

"Okay darling, bye."

"I'm going to go, upstairs and put on a nice dress or something."

Karen nodded and I made my way to my room. I had a couple of dresses as I was going to be living in Shawn's family home for 6 months until he's back from tour. After a while of debating which dress to wear I finally picked a dress. I wore a cute burgundy/red dress ( pictured above) and I did light makeup as I knew that Shawn didn't like makeup. He thought it was poison and always wanted me to showcase my natural beauty which I didn't think I had. That's when I thought of him again. Shawn. My boyfriend. He's not here. He's missing my birthday. My 21st and he's not here. A wave of emotions came above me and I felt as if I was about to cry. No stop it y/n you will not cry... you're not going to cry.. come on you can't cry. Suddenly my phone began to ring. My heart quickend as I prayed it was Shawn. I quickly picked up my phone in hope to see Shawn's name pop up. I read the caller ID. It read Aaliyah❤️.

I sighed. I mean I do love Aaliyah. She's like a little sister to me but I really hoped it was Shawn. I reluctantly picked the phone up and placed in on my ear as I began to make my way out of the room. 

Finally y/n you picked up on the like 10th ring

Yeah i'm sorry i was putting on my mascara and didn't want it to get ruined

Its okay, anyways roses or tulips

Ummm roses but why

No reason anyways i gotta go byeeee


Before i could answer, the phone call ended. Weird. I thought. I walked downstairs and Karen's eyes landed on me. "My god, y/n you look gorgeous" 

"Thanks" i blushed

I sat in silence for a while as i scrolled through Shawn's instagram admiring the pictures of him on tour. At least he's having fun. I scrolled through our messages and admired the messages from the previous days. He sent so many cute things like baby i miss you or cutie you awake. Sometimes when he was feeling a little "needy" he text things like i need you and your body right now, why did i let you stay i want you noooooooow. 😪

I giggled at the messages, and turned my phone off. As soon as i was about to leave the room, the doorbell rang. "Y/n can you get that, i'm making tonights dinner" karen called

I made my ways towards the door and opened it. I was expecting it to be Aaliyah but it wasn't. It was a guy in a suit. With a bouquet of roses in his hands. I looked up and that was when my eyes met his. It was Shawn. I couldn't believe it. "Surprise honey, happy birthday" he said as he greeted me with a slow kiss. When we pulled away he handed me the roses. I realised that he was still standing outside and i was standing inside. I moved out the way so he could let himself in. Aaliyah followed in and smiled at me as she made her way towards her mom. I was still in complete shock as me and Shawn sat on the couch next to each other. He placed my arms in his and pulled me closer "Baby, you okay you haven't said a word" Shawn said a worried expression shooting acroos his face.

"I thought you forgot" i said barley above a whisper

"Forgot what?"

"My birthday"

"Oh, baby i could never forget that, it was when you were born. A princess. A gift from the heavens. A beautiful woman was born on that day, and that woman was you im sorry i never told you i was coming i just wanted to surprise you" Shawn said as he pulled me into a hug

"Its okay, i'm just glad you didn't forget" i said a smile creeping across my face

"Oh baby, i don't think i told you but that dress looks amazing on you."

"Thanks Shawn." i replied as my cheeks began to turn a light shade of pink

"Too bad im going to rip it off you later" Shawn whispered into my ear

"Shawn!" i scolded as i playfully shoved him

"I need to tell you something though before all that"

"What is it, Shawn"

"Your coming on tour with me"

"Oh my god really"

"Yep" shawn replied popping the "p"

I pulled Shawn into a quick kiss and hug and he whispered "definatley going to rip those clothes of you later"
