Shawn's POV

I knocked on Y/N's front door, holding the corsage box tightly in my hand. I hear the door unlock and there she stood, looking flawless.

"Hey, Shawn!" She greets, "thanks for getting the corsage, you look great by the way." I smile, and hand her the box, taking her hand and twirling her around once, "you look... stunning," I gush.

She blushes, pulling her dress up to slip on her sparkly heels, "thanks."
She was wearing a deep ocean blue dress that had embellishments lined across the sweetheart neck line, and hugged her curves nicely.
"Damn," I whisper, causing her to turn around and knit her eyebrows in confusion, "did you say something, Shawn?" she asks, but I shake my head, internally sighing in relief she had not heard what I said.

"Ready to go, my queen?" I bow forward, holding my arm for her to grasp.
Y/N giggles, and grabs onto my arm, both of us making our way into the pristine white limo that sat outside her house.

Y/N's POV

It was a good hour before we finally reached the venue, and as a grad class, we decided to hold it at The Golden Palm Hotel (A/N: no clue if this is a real hotel, but I made it up lol). Once the limo pulled over to the entrance, Shawn stepped out and held his hand out for me, to which I gladly grab as he leads me through the grand entrance.
We are instantly greeted by bright neon lights from the casino and the sound of coins dropping onto the floor as the slot machines ring loudly, signifying a jackpot.

"Shall we enter the dining hall?" Shawn asks, pulling me out from my trance. I look up at him and nod my head, slightly pulling his arm as our heels click against the marble floors of the hotel.
We enter the huge ballroom, which has been decorated with flowers, and rhinestones of all sorts... almost like a wedding.

You see Y/F/N make her way towards you as you enter causing you to release yourself from Shawn's grip.
"Hey Y/N!!!" She squeals, and Shawn just looks at you before mouthing 'gonna go get us some drinks' and disappearing into the crowd.
"Hey," I call, pulling her into a hug.
"I see you and Shawn are really hitting it off, ey?" She smirks, patting my back as I just laugh and roll my eyes.
"Shut up," I pout, earning a chuckle from my best friend.

From the corner of my eye, I see Shawn manoeuvre his way back over with two drinks. Y/F/N notices him as well and winks at me, turning on her heel and walking off towards the buffet tables.

Shawn nudges my shoulder and hands me the drink, "thanks," I nod, taking a sip from the punch filled wine glass.
There is a moment of silence before Shawn clears his throat, "wanna go for a walk?"
"Sure," I shrug my shoulders, following Shawn onto a large, dimly lit terrace.

We both stop and lean against the railing, watching the city lights flicker as the sky darkens and the evening progresses.

"Y/N, there's something I need to tell you," Shawn breaks the silence, not once removing his eyes from the view.
I turn to look at him, my eyes glancing over the perfect features etched onto his handsome face.
"What is it, Shawn?" I question, placing my hand on top of his as he finally breaks his gaze from the sky and turns his body to face mine.

He breathes in, "I like you, Y/N, I really fucking like you and you have no idea how badly I want you to be mine." I stand completely shocked, my gaze shifting from his eyes to his lips.

I knew for a fact that the day I met Shawn, he always seemed to linger in my mind and I never really understood why, but now I did. So I did what I thought I'd never do; I kissed him, hard.

My hands hold his cheek as I smash my lips into his, melting into them as they make contact. Shawn wastes no time in kissing back, running his hands down my body and settling on my waist as his tongue battles for dominance.
In what felt like hours, our heated make out session ends, my hair frazzled from Shawn's touch and our breaths irregular from the lack of air.

Our foreheads are pressed together as we both try to catch our breath, his hands still firmly pressed against the material of my dress.
"I like you too, Shawn," I mumble, leaning to peck his cheek once more as we untangle ourselves.
Shawn grins and pulls out a small box from his suit pocket, "I bought this a while ago just in case you felt the same way," he says, opening the tiny box to reveal a small diamond band ring.

I gasp, "Shawn..." but he shakes his head, "this is a promise ring, not a promise that I'll marry you, but a promise that as long as I am with you; I will protect you, love you, and be there whenever you need me. I guess what I'm trying to is.. Y/N, will you be my girlfriend?" Shawn proposes, looking at me deep in the eyes, sending shivers down my back. I wipe a small tear that managed to slip out and nod my head, "I would be honoured to," I reply.

Shawn slips the band onto my finger and hugs me tightly, holding me as if I were the only thing in the world.
He lets go and holds my hand instead, "care for a dance?" He bows, pulling me back into the ballroom and closer to his chest.

"You are my world," he hums, kissing the top of my head as we dance amongst the rest of the students.

Best prom ever.
