Something Small (Book #2 in the Shallison Series)-Completed

Chapter Two

Shawn's POV {September 20th, around 5 o'clock in the evening}

Allison is currently leaning against me, our backs against the bed frame. She already ate the sandwich and apples I got her.

"It's only 5:24pm. It feels later than that." Ali said, after glancing at the alarm clock.

"I have to be up around 7 tomorrow morning. Tomorrow is Sunday so we're doing inventory at the music store."

"Okay, I don't have to work tomorrow. So I'll probably just clean the house and get some other chores done."

Ali got out of bed and put on her underwear and my t-shirt on.

"Where you going?" I asked.

"To make dinner, why don't you take a shower and then come down?"

I got out of bed and just put a pair of boxers on. I walked over to where Ali was standing by the door.

"Okay I'll take a shower."

I leaned down and kissed her. Ali opened the door to leave but I held her back.

"Only if you come with me."

Allison's POV {7:42pm}

I sat at my vanity, combing my wet hair. Shawn was downstairs making me tea, because he's just the sweetest guy ever. I felt my eyelids drooping, and it wasn't even 8 o'clock. All that sex today did make me really tired. Holy crap Shawn, horny little shit. I bent over to put my hair in a messy bun. I heard Shawn open the bedroom door and set down my tea on the bedside table. He put a hand on my back, and when I stood back up, I was in the circle of his arm. Shawn kissed my forehead.

"Time for bed Angel."

We climbed into bed and I snuggled up to Shawn. Shawn handed me my tea then shut the lamp off.

Having a cup of tea before be reminded me of Shawn singing Little Things by One Direction. Which reminded me of the days he used to make YouTube videos. He stopped when I had that accident senior year of high school. That seems like so long ago! I can't believe we are already in our second year of college. My classes start next week, but I'm not sure when Shawn's classes start.

"Shawn? Remember when you used to sing Amnesia to me at night to get me to fall asleep?"

"Yeah, of course."

"Will you sing me a song?" I asked, eager to hear his angelic voice.

"Which one?"

"Little Things by One Direction."

Shawn started to sing and it immediately made me smile. I couldn't believe Shawn was so good. Maybe it's just me, but his voice is so great sounding. Most artists today use auto-tune, but Shawn's voice without auto-tune sounds 100 times better than artists who use auto-tune.

"You can't go to bed without a cup of tea, maybe that's the reason that you talk in your sleep. And all those conversations are the secrets that I keep, though it makes no sense to me."

I hope I don't talk in my sleep, because I have some pretty interesting dreams.

After Shawn sang the rest of Little Things, I put my tea away and snuggled up real close with Shawn. My head rested on his shoulder, with my face almost against his neck. He had his other arm around me, which was rubbing my back, making me sleepier and more relaxed. Then Shawn kissed me goodnight. And all I remember is Shawn's hand going up and down my back. Finally right before I fell asleep, Shawn's hand slowly stopped and rested on my hip.
