The Cafe Girl

PART SIX

YOUR POV

It's the next morning and Shawn and I have been awake for about an hour. We are still lying in bed just cuddling, enjoying each other's company. I'm really enjoy being this close to Shawn and I listening to his breathing is quite relaxing, however , I really need a piss, and it's not helping that Shawn's arm is wrapped fairly tight around my middle.

"Shawn, I need to pee." I say to him, but he doesn't move. "Shawn!" I say, this time a little louder. I think it works because he lets out a groan before releasing me so I could go pee.

When I get back from the bathroom I don't see Shawn in the bed anymore. I assume he's gone into the living room/kitchen area. So that's where I go. When I turn into the kitchen part of his open plan living area, I see Shawn standing by the stove cooking some eggs. I must say he looks great in his grey joggers with his messy curls all over the place. He hasn't noticed that I'm here yet because he's singing along with The 1975s newest album that is blaring through his sound system. I walk over behind him and wrap my arms around his waist and rest my head on his back.

He turns his head to look at me and says "Goodmorning honey, did you sleep okay?" I mumble a "mhmm" and tighten my grip on his waist. Shawn turns around so I'm now facing his chest and hugs me just as tight as I've been hugging him.

Shawn finished cooking our fried eggs on toast and we sat and ate them and just spent the whole time talking about god knows what.

After breakfast, Shawn and I get ready because he wants to take me somewhere to try and take my mind off of everything with my father. He won't tell me where we are going because that's how he likes to roll. He loves to keep me in that dark about everything. If I'm honest it doesn't really bother me, because I know I can trust him with my life basically.

Because I have no other clothes her other than my work clothes , Shawn gave me one of his hoodies and he found a pair of his sisters jeans that she had left here the last time she came to his place, so I wore those. So, I'm wearing Shawn's white champion hoodie and Aaliyah's black skinny jeans with rips at the knee.

After we finish getting ready, we put our coats and shoes on and Shawn grabs his keys and we head down to the parking garage and to his car. We get in the car and Shawn hands me his phone so I can connect his Spotify to the car. I find the album I'm looking for and start playing it.

As soon as Shawn hears the first bit of 'Growing Pains' by Alessia Cara, he is dancing and singing along with the music. I pull out my phone to record him because it's a sight I want to remember. He sees that I'm recording him and he starts singing whilst looking directly at the camera, and I can't stop myself from laughing because it's just too funny. After I finish recording I post it onto my private snapchat story with only my closest friends because they know that I've been spending time with Shawn the last couple days.

Shawn makes a turn onto the highway heading east of Downtown Toronto. I look over at Shawn with a confused expression on my face.
"Shawn, please tell me where we're going." I beg because I really want to know where the hell he's taking me.

Shawn just looks at me before shaking his head and saying "We are going somewhere that means a lot to me and I don't think you've ever been there." That could literally be anywhere in this whole damn world because Shawn has been to way more places than I have but I guess somewhere near Toronto that holds a lot of meaning to him....

"Oh no... you're not taking me where I think you are, are you?" I ask him as an idea of where he is taking me has come to mind.

"Where do you think I'm taking you?" Shawn says glancing over at me before focusing on the road again.
