Shawn Mendes One shots

Handsome Stranger

You felt dumb, dumb and betrayed. You thought you finally found the one, the one you could love endlessly and vice versa. Turns out you were wrong, again. That having your loyalty was just a game. The moment you saw the messages from Ben, Toms best friend, about when he wanted is money from the bet, you know something was wrong. And when you figured it al out, it broke your hard into a million pieces. You checked your watch, it was already 11 pm, and you were sitting on a cold metal bench in the middle of Amsterdam. It was getting colder and the only thing keeping you warm was your jeans jacket. The only thing you wore underneath was a thin shirt and some sweats, not counting on the fact you had to leave the apartment at this hour. The second he told you, you didn’t want to spend even a minute longer there. You grabbed your bag and ran away, as far as you could. Your shame was to big to go back to your parents, telling them they were right all along, that Tom was not a good guy. And even if you would want to go there, they lived 90 minutes away, and the next train would probably be around 6 AM. Even though you only had one beer, you still felt a little tipsy. You couldn’t think straight.
You saw couples and groups of friends passing you by on their way to the bars of Amsterdam, ready to enjoy there free friday night. Amsterdam was beautiful at night time, little lights everywhere. You almost forgot all your worries, till you realized why you were here again. What were you gonna do? You had no one in Amsterdam to fall back at. You started losing hope. And after some time, a random guy came to sit next to you. Which was weird, since there was an empty bench not even a few meters from this one away. “Beautiful, isn’t it?” He said, probably to you, since there wasn’t anyone around who he could be talking to you. You turned your head to him, seeing him stare at the square were al the party people were enjoying their friday night. He looked cute and innocent. Your parents always told you, to never talk to a stranger. They could be a weird creep, who wanted to kidnap you. You smiled a little. The thought of your parents knowing this was happening, you, alone, on the square in amsterdam, where everyone was getting drunk, almost talking to a stranger while you just had a bear, in the middle of the night. They’d probably kill you. “What is?” you asked curious, not really sure were he was referring to. “Amsterdam, al the lights, people having fun, its amazing.” he said, turning his head to you with a smile. He was cute. like really cute.
You looked at him and smiled back. “yeah.” You replied back with a smile. He really was right, it was beautiful.
“So what is a pretty girl like you doing here all alone? You know that isn’t really that save right?” You giggled for no reason, just the irony. “Why would you ask? planning on kidnapping me?” He smiled. “Just curious, i mean you don’t look that happy.” You tried to keep your smile on your face, which was, by now, the hardest job ever. A tear starting running over your cheek. You wiped it away immediately. But it was to late, he saw. “Can i ask you what's wrong?” he asked with a worried face. You chuckled. “I don’t even know you.” He smiled to you and said: “The more reason there is to talk to me.” He had a point, you know he did. He was a random stranger. He didn’t even know you. “I broke up with my boyfriend.” You eventually said. “oh, i’m sorry.” You giggled and replied. “Why would you be sorry? It’s not like you just said you loved me because of a bet. or just used me for sex. So don’t be sorry please. It's fine.” by now, tears were running all over your cheeks. You couldn’t control yourself anymore. He kept quiet. “Sounds like a dick.” You smiled a little through your tears. “He was.” “is” he replied. “he is a dick. Otherwise you wouldn’t be sitting here.” You laughed. “so handsome stranger, whats your story? why are you sitting here?” You asked him. He smirked. “handsome stranger huh?” He looked at you, and hold his hand up. You shaked it. “Its Shawn, but Handsome stranger sounds great.” You laughed at his silly comments. “y/n. But don’t ignore my question, i shared my embarrassing story, now share yours, why the sad lonely looks?” He did look sad and lonely for such a handsome guy. “Just… things.” he replied with a sad look. “things? that's all i get?” “Hey did i sign a contract or something? i don’t owe you my life story, it's unimportant anyway.” he chuckled. “We don’t even know each other, so talk to me.” You said to him with a smirk, reminding him of how he convinced you to talk. He sighed. “My girlfriend dumped me by text.” He said with pain in his face. “ouch. She sounds like a bitch” He smiled a little. “She is, i just don’t wanna know it. And because we didn’t tell anyone we were in a relationship, she is gonna deny it to anyone.” You frowned. “wait you lost me, who is everyone?” He slicked. “Just, people.” You laughed. “Why are you laughing? Do you think its that funny.” shawn asked with a hurt expression. “Its not you, it's just.. this. We are sitting on a bench in Amsterdam at freaking midnight. We both have big broken hearts, and you are like ‘vague boy’ over here.” He reacted with a semi-mad face. “ hey i told you what kind of happened, that counts.” by now you two were lauging out loud. The whole situation is weirder than you thought it ever could be. Than suddenly your phone started ringing. You totally even forgot you had it with you. You grabbed your bag from between your feet and took your phone out. When you looked at your screen you saw it was ‘baby’. Looking at your phone took you straight back to reality. “baby? Let me guess. didn’t had time to change his name yet.” You kept quiet. it hurt. “It is the dick right?” Shawn asked. You nodded. “Here let me take it.” and before you could even respond, Shawn took the phone out of your hands, answered it, and put it on speaker. “y/n? thank god baby you picked up, i’m so sorry, please say where you are and i’ll pick you up.” You heard Tom speaking throught the phone. And you would be lying to yourself if you said it didn’t break your heart. Shawn knew this, don’t ask him how, but he did. He wanted to cheer you up, and he succeeded. “I’m sorry sir, but this is the assistant of Y/N. She can’t come to the phone right now, anything i can give through?” He kept his face straight the whole time, while you were keeping your laugh in as a crazy person. Shawn smiled at you when he saw the laugh on your face.“The fuck who are you?” Tom asked. “Like i said sir, this is y/n’s assistant. Can i do anything for you?” “what the fuck dude, just.. You now what, nevermind, whatever. The fuck man.” And than he ended the call. You started laughing so hard, people on the other side of the square started laughing at you. Again, it wasn’t just Shawn, pretending to be your personal assistant. It was the whole situation. A random stranger named Shawn, just pretend to be a personal assistant to your ex boyfriend, who just dumped you, you have been chatting with Shawn, on a bench, in the middle of Amsterdam. This was probably the dumbest thing you've ever done, but you didn’t even care. Shawn laughed with you, probably more about you than with you, but he laughed. And it was great having someone laughing with you. After your giggles started to cool down a little, you suddenly realized you were getting cold. Who blames you , since it was already 12:30 am. Suddenly Shawn stood up from the bench. “I think i should go, gotta get up early tomorrow, you have a place where i can walk you to?” Shawn asked friendly. Suddenly you remembered al the things that happened the past couple of hours, and you started smiling sadly. “You don’t?” he asked confused. “But where have you.. oooh right.”he suddenly came to the realisation that Tom was your only place to stay. “Well, you can come with me?” You looked up, not really sure if the thing he just suggested would be the dumbest thing to do for a 20 year old girl. “uh, i don’t know..” “Y/n, you realize sitting here on your own is even more dangerous.” You realize he had a point. a very good one. Shawn looked like a good guy, he had something familiar, you just couldn’t really put your finger on it. He reached his hand out to you. “i have a hotel room in the hotel over there. it just has one bed, but it a king size, you have completely your own space.” A hotel, what could go wrong in a hotel?. You took his hand and he smiled, pulling you up and walking over to the hotel.
After some minutes you arrived at the Hilton hotel. “Wait, you sleep here?” You asked, it was kind of hard to believe that the random stranger slept here, he looked so normal. “yes” he said like it was the most normal thing in the world.
After you guys took the elevator, you arrived at Shawns gigantic suite. “Damn, you sleep here al by yourself? This is gigantic.” Shawn chuckled. “Yeah i like it to.” He took of his jacket threw it on the chair in the middle of the room.
“I’ll take a quick shower, or do you wanna freshen up first?” Shawn asked you while standing in front of a door thats probably leading to the bathroom. “oh no its fine, you go take a shower.” “okay, the remote is probably on the nightstand, make yourself at home.” He said with a smile. he walked into the bathroom and closed the door. You walked to the middle of the room since you still were standing in front of the room door. Everything was so extra, it was awesome. You’ve never been to a hotel like this, with such luxury. And the bed was gigantic. unbelievable. You sat down on the end of the bed, and took your phone out of your bag.

You have 3 missed calls and 10 messages

Baby: Y/n its not what it looks like
Baby: i swear i can explain
Baby: please come back
Baby: y/n where tf are you??
Baby: Who is that dude who took the call
Baby: Fucking hell where did you go?
Baby: Are you at your parents?
Baby: please don’t tell them what happened
Baby: its not what you think, really
Baby: i’ll come and pick you up at your parents
Baby: please be there..

Fuck, you got yourself in trouble. if your parents would found out about any of this, they would make your life a living hell. The message was send about a hour ago, which meant you still had like 30 minutes before hell burns down. Explaining your parents you were in bed with a midnight stranger wouldn’t really improve the situation. You sight. “Just let it be y/n, you’ll be fine.” You told yourself quietly, hoping it would cool you down a little before handsome guy would be done showering. And if it was on que, there he was. “Are you okay?” You scared up, not realizing he was already done freshing himself up, and when you saw him you realized he wasn’t yet. “I'm sorry you have to see this, but i forgot to take some clean clothes with me.” Oh you didn't mind, really. He stood in the door opening of the bathroom, a towel casually knotted around his waist. But just low enough to see his V-line and a little scarf. It was cute but so damn hot. “Don’t worry about it.” you told him with a little smile. You looked at him, and he looked back, and it took him exactly two seconds to realize you felt like crap. “Y/n are you alright?” He asked with a worried look on his face. He took a few steps into the direction off the bed. A tear escaped your eye. “i’m fine” you said while quickly wiping the tear away. “No you’re not, what happened?” he asked, still looking worried. He sat down next to you, on the end of the bed. Still with the towel knodded around his waist. “Tom is on his way to my parents, and if they found out what happened, and where i am now, they’ll end me, i just can imagine how mad they’d be.” More tears started streaming from your eyes, and you keep your head down. It was just now that you realised how messed up this al was, Tom was your whole life. You did everything with that guy. And now, everything is just gone. “y/n you are not the one who should be worried about that, he should. When he arrives at your parents he is the one who has to explain the situation, and i don’t think your parents would be too pleased by that.” He strokes your shoulder. You can feel his eyes staring at you and you look up, right in his eyes. “Everything will be ok, i promise.” And with just that one look, you felt save and calm. Two emotions you almost forgot that existed. Two emotions you hadn’t experienced for the last couple of years.
