Warnings: None…Lots of fluff

Day 8

👕 Ugly Sweaters

“Hey guys! Thanks for joining my live! Wow, there are so many of you already.” Shawn watched as the little eye in the corner of his screen had the number 10k next to it. It still amazed him every day how many people supported him. Shawn ran his hands through his hair and smiled at Y/N who was on the other side of his phone, hiding from the camera.

She was carrying a box in her hand that was full of books. He chuckled at her as she set it down on the coffee table and wiped her brow. She had always been a reader and he was glad that she would be adding new books to his small collection in his library (which really was just a tiny corner of his apartment with a cozy chair and three floor to ceiling bookshelves).

@shawnismyfavorite: Who is he looking at?

@lolmendesarmy: K, who is making my boy smile like that?

@mylifeisshawn: You gonna tell us why you looking off in the distance?

Shawn looked back down at his phone screen and chuckled at the comments. “You guys are all asking what I’m looking at.” Shawn and Y/N had agreed that they were going to announce their relationship to the fans on this Instagram live, but Y/N hadn’t known that Shawn had already started it. She gave him a wide-eyed look and he smirked.

He gestured with his hand for her to come over to him, but she shook her head. He furrowed his eyebrows. “Hold on, just one second,” he said to his phone.

He stood from his chair and set his guitar down. He walked towards Y/N and grabbed her wrists, pulling them up to his chest. “What are you worried about hun,” he whispered softly.

“I…I didn’t know you had started the live yet, I was hoping I would look a little more presentable.”

He chuckled at her, looking her up and down. She was in a light blue sweatshirt (his light blue sweatshirt), and she had leggings on. Her hair fell in soft curls around her face, and she had no makeup on, but Shawn thought she looked gorgeous. “Baby, you look beautiful. Now come on, don’t be shy.”

She shook her head at him and planted her feet into the ground as he tried to pull her over to his phone. “Do you want to do this or not?” his eyes softened as he stroked her cheek.

“I do, I really do, but I’m scared. What if you’re fans all hate me?”

“Well, I’ll protect you. I’ll make sure they play nice.” He kissed her forehead and lifted her off the ground. “Tell me to stop if you don’t want to meet my fans.” He carried her over to the chair he had previously been sitting in and paused before they went into view of the camera. “Yes or no Y/N.”

“Fine, yes!” she squeaked out as he sat down on the chair and pulled her into his lap.

He smiled at the screen and the comments started to blow up. “Okay, so this is my gorgeous girlfriend Y/N. Please be nice to her, she’s not used to being in the spotlight.”

Y/N hid her head in Shawn’s chest and wrapped her arms around his neck. “Baby, they have a few questions for you. Do you want to answer them?”

She slowly turned her head to the screen and glanced at all the comments.

@shawnforlife: Hi! You’re gorgeous, what’s your favorite color.

“Umm, to answer your question @shawnforlife, I’m going to have to go with forest green. It’s just such a pretty, prominent color. And I grew up by a forest, so it reminds me of home.” Shawn rubbed his fingers up and down Y/N’s waist and sent her an encouraging squeeze.

@shawnmendesishot: How long have you guys been dating?

“@shawnmendesishot, we’ve been dating for, I think a month and a half. I don’t know. Gosh, it feels longer than it has been. Has it really only been a month and a half?” She glanced at Shawn questioningly.

He looked up at the ceiling, thinking. “Yeah, I think so. But gosh, it does feel like it’s been way longer!” He kissed her cheek and she started to answer another question.

Y/N and Shawn were on live for twenty more minutes, before they decided that they had been on for long enough. “All right, well we love you guys, and hopefully we’ll be able to do another live soon!”

They blew kisses at the camera and logged off the live.

“You were amazing babe!”

“Yeah, only because I had you here. I struggled at first. Gosh, how do you do that!”

“Practice baby, practice!” He kissed her gently on the lips. “So, the Mendes family has a huge holiday party in a few weeks, and everyone has to wear ugly Christmas Sweaters that they have to make. But, but, but I have a twist. What if we made each other ugly Christmas Sweaters that the other person has to wear to the party? Which, by the way, whoever wins gets to take home the golden snowman for an entire year!?”

“The golden snowman?”

“The golden snowman is the best prize in this universe, better than a Grammy if I do say so myself. I’ve never won it, but I want to this year. Please say you’ll help me,” he pouted his lip and made a puppy eye face that Y/N couldn’t resist.

“Fine! But we have to go to the store and buy everything if we’re going to make these ourselves!”

***

“No, start with the brown along the outside!”

“But babe, we have to make the fireplace! I’m putting the fire in first.”

“Shawn,” she exasperatedly sighed, “Put the big brown square first, then work your way in from there! Like this!” She took the piece of fabric and glued it into the middle of the bright red sweater. “I’ve already cut everything out; it really shouldn’t be this hard.” She pinched the bridge of her nose.

“Well, clearly I’m not a fashion designer so I have no idea how to work this.”

“Honey, all you have to do is look at the picture and go biggest to smallest with the squares. Then, with the fire, place the logs down in the middle of the black square, and put the fire on top. If you have questions, ask me.”

She turned away from him, gluing the white triangles onto her red sweater. They had decided to decorate their sweaters as the Elf on the Shelf. Shawn was going to be the shelf/fireplace, and Y/N was going to be the elf. He was going to balance her on his shoulders so that it looked like she was sitting on him.

“Oh, we are definitely winning this year. You’re the smartest babe! Thanks for coming up with this idea.”

Y/N chuckled at Shawn. “It’s been on my Pinterest board for years. I’ve been waiting until I found a guy worthy enough to carry me on his shoulders and be my shelf.”

“Well, I’m glad I could be that guy then.”

A/N: Day 9 is going to be the holiday party they go to where they will wear these Christmas sweaters. Will they get the golden snowman? Idk, I guess you’ll have to see. As always, like, comment, vote, give feedback! Thanks, I love you all and stay tuned for Day 9!
