Camila's POV

"That's the last of it." Jason said as he and Shawn walked into my new apartment with the last two boxes in their hands.
"Now I just have to unpack everything." I sighed, not too excited about it but with Shawn and our friends here to help it would go a little faster for me.
"We'll get it done, love. We'll go start on the kitchen stuff and the movies." Shawn said, kissing my cheek before he and Jason walked off to unpack some of the other boxes while Jenna and I did the clothes.
"It's so odd seeing you two act like a couple now. I mean, I love it and we've been waiting for ages for you two to get together but it's so different not seeing you argue all the time." Jenna teased.
"I suppose it would be. It feels a bit weird to me, too, but it's nice." I blushed a bit and smiled.
I had spent a week in Shawn's house while I looked for the perfect place of my own and it was amazing. Waking up next to him every morning and spending each day with him was something I had never thought I would be able to do, yet here I am.
"You should have just moved in with him. You'll probably be at his place or he'll be here anyway." Jenna laughed softly.
"I know, but I also want my own space so I can take a break if I have to. I don't want things to move too quickly not with him." I shook my head slightly. "I just... I still feel nervous that this isn't going to work out and I'm going to lose him forever. There's no way I could handle that."
Jenna sighed softly and walked over to give me a hug which definitely made me feel better.
"Mila, you two are meant to be together. I mean think about all the times you two have fought over the years. No matter how long you stopped talking you always found your way back to each other. Even if you do fight I think you'll end up coming back just like you always do." She assured me.
"Thanks, Jenna." I smiled softly and gave her another hug then went back to putting my clothes away.
Eventually we finished and I ordered some pizza for all of us. We just sat around and talked for a while as we ate until Jenna and Jason finally went home.
"Well, you finally have your own place in London. How does it feel?" Shawn asked with a smile.
"It feels great. I am going to miss sleeping with you though. Your bed is so comfy." I said as I cuddled into his side.
"It's useful for other things, too." He gave me a cheeky wink and I playfully rolled my eyes. "But you know we can finally break in your new bed."
Before I could say anything he lifted me up and put me over his shoulder, sending me into a fit of giggles as he carried me to the bedroom and tossed me onto the bed. I laughed and smiled widely up at him as he pulled off his shirt then crawled over top of me.
"I really am going to miss being with you at night, though." He pouted a little as he kissed my lips gently.
"I'm going to miss it, too, but we have to slow down a bit. We just got together two weeks ago. We can't be moving in together yet until we know for sure that we can function as a couple." I said as I played with his hair.
"I know. I know." He let out a dramatic sigh before lowering his body onto mine and nuzzling his face into my neck.
"That doesn't mean that we can't sleep over though." I said as I kissed his head, gently running my fingers through his hair which I knew calmed him.
He simply hummed in response and closed his eyes, relaxing into my arms as we laid there for a long moment. Before we could do anything we ended up just falling asleep, too exhausted from the long day of moving and unpacking. The next morning I woke up to Shawn stepping out of the shower, a sight that I was still getting used to.
"You're staring, love." He teased with a smile as he walked over, wrapping a towel around his waist.
"Not staring. Admiring." I smiled, sitting up so I could give him a kiss.
"Well now that you're up do you want to go get breakfast?" He asked.
"Sure. I need to shower though. I would ask you to join but you already did so too bad." I smirked and pecked his lips before walking over to the bathroom.

Shawn's POV
I still couldn't believe that she was finally mine. I had waited so long for this and now that I had her I regretted not telling her how I felt sooner. We could have been happy like this years ago if I had just stayed instead of running away from my feelings.
"You're thinking too hard. You okay?" She asked, snapping me out of my thoughts as I looked over at her while we ate breakfast.
"Yeah. Just thinking about things is all." I smiled a bit and reached over to hold her hand. "By the way what do you want for your birthday? Its coming up next week."
"I don't know... I don't really need anything. Just being around you would be a great birthday. Especially since its been a couple years since I had you to celebrate it with." She said, causing a sting in my heart but I ignored it.
"Well I'll make sure that this one is the best birthday you've ever had." I promised with a soft smile.
I knew that she missed her parents and she would want them to be there along with our friends so I planned on calling them to see if they could come over for dinner. I also had another surprise for her that I knew she had been wanting ages for so I wanted to get her that for sure. She has been wanting a dog since we were kids and since her building allowed them I was all set. I just needed help figuring out what kind to get so I decided to hatch up a plan for the day before the party.
"What are you grinning at?" Camila asked, snapping me out of my thoughts once more.
"Oh nothing. You'll find out soon." I smirked.
This was just one of the many ways I was going to make everything up to her.
