Becca's P.O.V.

Shawn!?" I question looking at the figure in the back of the corner of the room.

I stand from the bed and run towards him sliding onto the ground next to him. I then wrap my arms around him holding onto him as if my life depended on it. He's shivering.

"Shawn what happened?" I ask in a concerned tone "B-Bad dream" he stutters. Most people when they have bad dreams don't wake up in the corner of a room screaming.

"Are you sure!?" I ask in confusion and sympathy

"Yeah, sorry that I woke you" he says standing up. "No don't be sorry" I say being honest, I would have been mad if I didn't wake up.

He pulls me into his arms and we walk back to his bed. We lay down and I feel myself drift off to sleep.

And I feel him remove his arm but I stop him. "Don't let me go" I whisper and mean it in more than one way.

I think he takes it to heart because he wraps his arms around me yet again, and I fall back asleep.

****

I wake up that morning to find Shawn still holding onto me. I try to sit up but I can't his grip on me is so tight. I get one of my arms out of his hold and grab a pillow, placing it into between us.

He instantly garbs the pillow.

I'm free.

I then hop off the bed trying not to wake him up, and I grab my bag and walk off to the bathroom.

I strip out of my clothing and open the shower door. I turn the water to a hot temperature and step in and let the water drench my body.

******

After getting out of my long shower, I get ready for my day with my regular retinue

I hear the door creak open and I look over to see Shawn. "Morning Beautiful" he says wrapping his arms around me from behind.

I look around the bathroom pretending I don't know he's talking to me. He gives me an irritated look. "Good morning" I whisper in his shoulder

"You do realize you're going to pay for that pillow incident" he says in my ear, I chuckle at the thought of how he held onto to it for dear life. I then grab the mascara and coat my eyelashes with layers of it.

Right before I finish I feel the brush being knocked out of my hands, leaving me with a black smudge. I look over to see Shawn giving me a smug look before running out of the room.

I chase after him down the hall and down the steps taking it two at a time and gaining on him. He then makes it down the steps and into the living room before I tackle him to the ground.

He pants for air. "Now you're going to pay for that" I say rephrasing his words form earlier. "Oh c'mon you don't need to wear it, you look beautiful without it" he says with a grin. I blush.

"You're not getting out of this that easy" I say with a mischievous grin. "You know, this is how we met" he says referring to me lying on top of him.

I smile at the memory, he leans in to kiss me and so do I but I just swipe my lips across his teasing him.

"Oh that's no fair" he says whining like a child.

"Uh, love birds!" A voice calls and I turn to find Cam, Nash and Matt staring at us. Oh god, they were there the whole time.

I blush with embarrassment "We are trying to eat here" Matt says while shoving some cereal in his mouth. I flip him off.

And he places his hands over his heart acting like it affected him, before returning back to the video game.
