Love Me

|Chapter 14|

Natalie Pierce Mendes

It was Sunday morning and Shawn was still asleep. I'd woken up around two hours ago. Since it was a Sunday, I didn't feel the need to dress properly, so I just wore an extra large t-shirt that said 'RESIST' and black spandex underneath it.

I'd heated up a muffin for myself and scrolled through my phone for about an hour until I got bored. So I opened Netflix on the tv and began watching 'FRIENDS' .

I guess I'd been laughing way too loudly at Joey's antics, and Chandler's jokes that Shawn entered the living room, a sleepy look on his face. His curls were all over the place, his eyes were only half open and he was yawning.

"Sorry, did I wake you?" I asked him, pausing the episode. He shook his head.

"No, I usually get up around this time anyway." He spoke.

He made himself some coffee and heated up a muffin before sitting down next to me on the couch. I uncomfortably tugged my shirt down as he was sitting so close to me, I could smell his cologne from last night.

"Are you watching friends?" Shawn enquired as Phoebe tried to teach Joey French.

"Yeah." I answered.

I laughed out loudly when phoebe screamed at Joey for making a mess out of French words.

"I personally don't like Ross. He's a total jerk." Shawn commented before sipping on his coffee.

"Nuh uh! He is so not." I disagreed, turning all my attention towards Shawn now. He rose an eyebrow at me and placed his mug onto the table, turning his body towards me.

"Really?" He asked me.

"Yeah I admit that he was in the wrong when he persisted about being on a break when he screwed with the girl from the copy place, but he's not a complete jerk." I defended.

"Oh he totally is. He always thinks he's the smartest, and thinks he's very wise, whereas he's had three failed marriages!" Shawn exclaimed.

"He does not! He bought Phoebe a bicycle when he found out she never had had one, he let Rachel win at Poker even though he had a better chance at winning, he always tried to look bad infront of his parents for Monica and let's face it he's hilarious. Have you seen the PIVOT episode??" I ranted making Shawn chuckle at the end.

"Yea, yea I guess he is kind of nice." Shawn admitted and I hissed in victory.

"Rank all 6 of them." Shawn spoke up again.

"Uh for me it would be Phoebe, Joey, Chandler, Rachel, Ross, and Monica." I answered with a big smile. Talking about friends was my literal passion.

"No way, it's definitely Chandler, Phoebe, Rachel, Monica, Joey, and then Ross." Shawn disagreed.

"Nope." I shook my head.

"Yes." Shawn challenged.

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No you oldie!" I spoke up.

"You take that back!" Shawn shouted jokingly, acting appalled.

"I will not." I smirked.

He rose an eyebrow and then started to tickle me.

"SHAWN. Stopppp no!!!" I laughed trying to kick him away.

And that's where we clicked.
