happy place

~

you walked into the living area of your apartment and were greeted by the sight of your handsome boyfriend sitting on the couch. his guitar in his arms as he played some songs and hummed. his head softly rocked to the rhythm, eyes shut.

you smiled, walking closer to the couch so that you could lay your hands on his shoulders from behind.
"hey, you ready?" you said softly.

he stopped stringing on the guitar, laid it beside him and turned around. his eyes softened as he eyed you.
"you look so lovely, darling."

you blushed slightly. you wore a cute baby blue sundress which was hugging your waist perfectly and fell to just above your knees. "thank you." you pressed a kiss onto his lips.

"ready?" you asked again.

he sighed, "will i ever be ready to have dinner with your parents?"

you laughed, walking around the couch to sit down on his lap. "come on, it's not so bad."

"not so bad? your dad hates me, y/n. he still thinks i'm not worthy of you and despises me. whenever we are at your parent's he can't stop making comments about my job." he groaned, head falling back whilst his hands were settled on your thigh and back.

you pouted. you knew he was right. your father always had a problem with shawn. "baby.. my mom loves you, though!"

"i know, i like her too. it's just really hard, yunno? i don't know what i could do to make him like me. it seems impossible."

"i'm sorry he makes you feel like that. you know that i tried to talk to him. you are the most important man in my life, shawn. but, he's my dad after all." you stroked down his jaw and leaned your forehead against his.

"i know." he whispered before cupping your cheeks and kissing you delicately on the lips. "he's gonna freak out when we tell him, don't you think?" he chuckled.

you giggled, both of you looking down to your very small bump. "probably."

shawn's big hand went down to your bump, gently stroking up and down as you laid your small one above his. "i love both of you so much." he whispered.

this was your happy place.

you were in your 16th week of pregnancy. shawn and you didn't want to tell your parents until you were safe and over the 12 week mark. it just seemed easier and more relaxing for the both of you to keep it a secret one month longer then.

the difficulties of shawn and your dad made a lot of things harder. shawn was it for you, you knew that and you didn't want to change a thing about that. but you also knew that shawn would probably never get your fathers blessing for a possible wedding.
the two of them never really argued but it was visible that your dad didn't like shawn.
