BOMBSHELL...SHAWN MENDES

xix. blue christmas

—

Phoebe woke up earlier today, and, sat on the balcony watching the blue ocean and the waves crashing on the sand.

She couldn't believe it, she was in Hawaii and for Christmas. First Christmas without seeing snow, instead she was about to spend her day at the beach, tanning and drinking piña colada instead of drinking hot coffee and doing snowmen with Shawn.

The soft melody of 'Blue Christmas' by Elvis Presley echoed through of ears, as, she sipped on her black coffee.

"Since when are you awake?" Asked a shirtless Shawn still sleepy. He sat down on the chair next to her and stared at the view. "Uh?"

She shook her head. "Sorry, I was focused on the view."

He chuckled. "Breathtaking eh?" He hummed.

"Yeah. Totally. Never thought a place could be this pretty." She answered. "Thank you for bringing me here."

"No problem, honey." He replied. "The question is why are you up so early?"

She drank her coffee and put the mug down. "Maybe since six? I wanted to see the sunrise."

"You still do that?" He asked she hummed sweetly offering him a smile. "You should wake me up with you."

"I will. One day." She told him. "The night of our wedding, I will wake you up at five-thirty and we will watch the sunrise together." She teased.

He grinned. "Our wedding night, eh? Sounds exciting."

She rolled her eyes with a little laugh, staring at the waves again. Shawn did the same thing, wrapping his hands around the cold tea, drinking it.

"You really see us getting married?" He queried, hope in his eyes.

She thought a little then nodded. "I do, of course, I do. I mean we were meant to be, right?"

Shawn let out a soft sigh, watching her. "We are soulmates." He chuckled.

"We are." She agreed.

Both of them stared at the ocean in front of her, so peaceful and quiet. We could hear the ukelele, and, the laughs from the surfers who were enjoying their lives to the fullest.

Shawn's hand slowly grabbed Phoebe's one, sending electricity through her whole body. She cracked a smile, and, closed her eyes a little.

Suddenly, she couldn't help but let out a giggle. "Can you believe that we won't see snow this year?" She laughed.

Shawn gasped. "Oh god, I totally forgot that." He answered. "How are we supposed to celebrate Christmas without snow or hot chocolate?"

Phoebe grabbed his hand, and, kissed his lips gently. "Stop stressing, baby." She muttered gently, earning red cheeks and a stupid grin from her lover. "What is it with your stupid grin?"

He leaned in, nose bopping hers. "You called me baby, and fuck it sounded so good."

She shook her head, letting out a soft chuckle. "You really excited about a word?" She queried as Shawn nodded shyly.

He scratched the back of his neck, clearing his throat. "I mean... You never call me baby. It's always honey or babe, but baby hits different— I don't know."

Phoebe's lips curved into a smile at his words. She was deep in love with that man, she always have been, since the first day. The young woman clearly remembered the first time she laid her eyes on him, hazel eyes staring at her with jealousy? That's what she always thought.

"Shawn?" He hummed. "Were you jealous of something the first time you saw me?" She questioned.

He shrugged. "When?"

She sighed, rolling her blue eyes. "When you saw me at your front door, Brian's arm around me." She explained clearly.

"Oh." He let out. "Uh, yeah I was." He giggled. "You and Brian just seemed so close and it was bothering me, honestly." He admitted.

Phoebe laughed, standing up and walking to the kitchen. The little apartment that Shawn and her ranted was pretty decent. A big room, a bathroom, a living room and a kitchen and view on the ocean. They were five minutes away from the bitch which was cool.

Shawn's arms wrapped around her as he nuzzled his face in the crock of her neck, showering it with soft pecks. He softly spun her around, so they could be face to face. He leaned down, smushing their lips together. She pulled away after a five second or six, smiling widely.

"I love you." Shawn whispered. "I always did and I will always do, you're everything to me and I don't want to lose you ever again." He added.

She ruffled her hand through his curls. "Where this is all coming from?"

Shawn shrugged, still hugging her, afraid to let her go. "We are in the moment." He murmured kissing her shoulder gently.

She inhaled, closing her eyes. "Since we are in the moment... I want you forever." She admitted, shyly.

"Forever?" He asked. "Tell me more."

"We could get married, then look at for a house because we want babies." She beamed. "A lot of babies." She laughed. "And, we could just grow old together." She said playing with his curls. "And come back to Hawaii."

"And come back to Hawaii." He said, kissing her nose. "I love you."
