Shawn Mendes Imagines

Storms

(This is the night Shawn was talking about in the "Camping" story)

There was a bright flash of lightning followed by a loud clap of thunder. I shrieked and threw the blanket over my head. The power had gone out about 15 minutes ago, and it was around 11pm, so it was completely dark. My parents were also out of town, so I was completely alone in the house, and I was terrified of storms.

I peeked out from under the blanket and grabbed my phone to text my boyfriend, Shawn. Maybe I could convince him to come over.

Me: Hey, Shawn?
Shawn: Yeah?
M: Can you come over? I'm so scared rn. I'm literally hiding under my blanket
S: Of course. I'll be there in about 10 minutes
M: Be careful tho. The roads could be dangerous
S: I will. Don't worry about me. I'll be fine
M: Thank you!
S: You should know I'd do anything for you. Anytime. Always❤️

I smiled and set my phone down. Then there was another bang of thunder, making me jump and hide under the covers again.

About 10 minutes later, I heard a knock at the door. I realized that the door wasn't unlocked, and I would have to go and let Shawn in. I took a deep breath, jumped out of bed, and ran downstairs to the door. I opened it to reveal a slightly wet Shawn. He smiled when he saw me, and I flung myself at him, making him stagger back a step from the sudden force. I pressed my face against the side of his neck, and his arms constricted around me, his hand gently rubbing my back. There was another crack of thunder, and I flinched. Shawn held me tighter, and began to whisper in my ear. "Hey, you're all right. It's okay. We're gonna be fine." And I believed him. "Do you wanna go inside?" he asked. I nodded and jumped up, wrapping my legs around his waist. He carried me into the house, kicking the door shut behind him. He headed up the stairs to my bedroom. He gently laid me down on the bed. He took off his shoes and jacket before crawling onto the bed with me. He pulled the blankets over us, and he opened his arms for me. I shifted over into the warm circle of his arms, laying my head on his chest.

When I was beginning to get comfortable, there was another deafening crack of thunder, making me jump and my fingers tighten on Shawn's shirt.

"Hey," Shawn's voice came, low and soothing. "I'm right here. It's going to be okay. I promise."

I nodded and closed my eyes, taking deep breaths, inhaling his familiar, soothing scent. "Thank you for driving out here," I said when I was calm enough.

"It's really no problem at all. I want to be here. The storm is just a good excuse to come over. It's also one that my mom will buy."

"You know, I haven't gotten a kiss since you've been here," I said.

"There hasn't been a good time. Now is a good time though."

I lifted my head up slightly to place my lips against his. The kiss calmed me. There was more thunder, but I didn't even flinch. I continued to kiss him until I needed air. I broke away from him, panting. His eyes were wide, and he was gasping, too. I laid my head back against his chest, listening to his erratic heartbeat.

I began to feel slightly drowsy when my breathing returned to its normal pace. I was extremely warm and comfortable, and there hadn't been any thunder recently. I felt myself beginning to slip into unconsciousness. Shawn began to hum A Little Too Much mostly for himself I think, but it dragged me down further.

When I was in that weird stage of being half awake and half asleep, Shawn began to speak softly. "I don't think I'm brave enough to say this while you're actually listening, so now is a good time. (Y/N)... I think I'm in love with you. Everyone says that when you fall in love, it's like magic. And I definitely feel magic when I'm around you. I feel like I'm floating, and I feel numb and incredibly happy. I've never been in love, but I think this is it. There's a first time for everything, and I think you're it. You're my first love. And it would be great to be your last. So I promise, right here, right now, that I will not leave you. I plan on keeping you forever... because I love you." I felt his lips brush against my forehead briefly. "Sleep well, my love," he finished. He began to hum again, and then I was completely gone, with his words spinning through my head.

Ok, you're probably thinking "She skips a week of uploading, and then she gives us this short, crappy imagine?"
I know, I know. I'm sorry. I've been so busy these past two weeks. It's all been very hectic and finding time to write was almost impossible, but I did it! Even if it was late.
I also didn't proofread/edit this at all so sorry if some grammar was messed up
