After putting on my shorts again, I put on the shirt Shawn gave me and yawn. I look at the time.
3:53am
Wow.
I look in the mirror when the door open and I see shirtless Shawn. I blush harshly and he just treads towards me. I turn around to look at him.
"Um, we should," I push my hair back, "we should probably go to bed. If you want, I can go sleep in Jake's room if you're not comfortable with me being here." I say and Shawn furrows his eyebrows.
"I want you with me." He says and I blush even harder. He chuckles and examines me, "your so small." He says and I cross my arms.
"Gee, thanks." I hang my head down and he chuckles.
"I mean you look really small with my shirt on." He explains and I look up at him again.
I get a weird feeling in my stomach. Something that feels so weirdly vague and nostalgic. A piece of hair falls in front of his face and I move it. I feel a weird warm feeling when I touch him.
Ew ew ew ew ew ew. No. This is Shawn. The boy who hates me. He hates my guts and I hate him.
So why do I feel so weird?
His eyes soften and he takes my hand, leading me back to the bed. I sit on it and he turns off the light. I feel the other side weigh down and then I feel an arm tug on mine. He pulls me onto the bed. I lay down next to him and his arm leaves my side. I then feel the blanket wrapped around me, I smile at how Shawn's finally being nice.
I stare up at the dark ceiling.
"Hey, Shawn?" I whisper and he hums, "why'd you do it?" I ask and turn on my side to look at him. I see his eyes on me and his body turns to mine.
"I don't know. I didn't mean too. It just kind of happened. I'm sorry I did though. I have no clue why I ruined the moment like that. You could've gotten sick. I did come back for you though." He explains and I curl into a ball.
"It's okay, I guess." I forgive. That's all I do. Even when they probably don't deserve it. It's just what I do.
"I really am sorry, Brianna. I never meant to hurt you." He apologizes and I nod. He pulls me closer to him and I put my head in the crook of his neck. I curl up into his chest and he wraps his arms around me tightly.
This is so weird. It's probably just because he's drunk. He's gonna wake up and regret all of this. I will too. Right? Of course.
I look up at Shawn and he sighs. I put my head back until I hear light snores. I smile and eventually fall asleep too.
♡
My eyes flutter open to a room I'm not used to. I try to turn on my other side but somethings blocking me. I turn my head and see Shawn.
Oh shit.
His arm is completely wrapped around me, making it hard to move. I begin to remember what happened last night, making me pulse. I take a deep breath and try to unwrap Shawn's arm but it only pulls me tighter. I sigh and look at Shawn. He looks so innocent when he's sleeping, I mean, who doesn't?
His mouth is slightly open and his breathing is a hush. His curly hair dangles in front of his face.
God his hair looks soft.
I want to touch it but I'm too nervous. He sighs and loosens his grip to scratch his face. I quickly take the chance to move off the bed. His eyebrows furrow and he finds me to be nowhere. I quickly grab a pillow and put it by his side, he takes it and squeezes it to his body. I smile at his lack of anger.
Before he wakes up I grab my shoes and put them on. I grab my phone from the table.
It's dead. Shit.
I exit the room silently, looking at Shawn one more time. His hair's all messed up.
I would take a picture if I could but, I can't.
I close the door and go down the stairs quietly. I put my phone in my pocket and begin to search for cleaning supplies. When I find a broom, a mop and a vacuum I begin to clean so his parents don't have to.
♡
After a whole ass two hours the house and backyard are clean. Thankfully Shawn didn't wake up. I put the supplies away and look around one more time when I see a picture of Shawn and a girl.
That must be his sister. That's the photo I saw on his Instagram. Wow, she's pretty.
I grab my keys from the counter and am about to leave when I hear a sigh on the stairs. I jump and turn to see Shawn, he finally put on a shirt.
"Nice, you were gonna leave without saying bye." He slurs, rubbing his eyes and walking down the stairs. I blush and put a strand of hair behind my ear.
"Sorry, I didn't want to wake you up," I explain, not really telling the truth.
I just didn't want you to cuss me out and tell me to leave. I also wanted to clean the house so no one else had to.
"You cleaned the house?" He asks, he furrows his eyebrows as he looks around at the clean house.
"Well yeah, I just felt bad if I left you with a mess," I say, putting my hands behind my back.
"Thank you." He says, "but you didn't have to do that. How's your hand?" He's never this sweet. It's freaking me out.
"Uh," I look at my hand, "it seems fine." I smile and he walks towards me.
"Well, I'm going to go back to my dorm," I say and he runs a hand through his hair.
"You want a pop-tart?" He asks and I chuckle.
What? What even is he-
"I really should go, I need to charge my phone," I say and he nods. He stands in front of me and I gulp.
"Well, I guess I'll see you tomorrow in class, thank you for cleaning up. Really, you didn't have to. I owe you one." he winks and I tense, nervously smiling.
"I'll see you later, Shawn," I say, about to turn around. He grabs my waist and pulls me in for a quick kiss. I smile and feel a shiver run down my spine.
"Okay," I pull out of the kiss before anything happens, "bye." I ramble and open the door and exit the house as quickly as possible.
Fuck.
