I saw this video once again this morning and it just made me want to write something similar so I hope you'll enjoy it ! ❤

Y/N's P.O.V

Today is the day, my baby is turning 19. I can't believe the little boy who has grown right next to my door is now the big boy he is. We've known each other since day one, and to see him achieve his most important goal is amazing. He is an awsome human being and singer, who treats his fans right and keeps his feet firmly on the ground. I couldn't ask for a better boyfriend, he is so caring and nice.

For his birthday, I've prepared a surprise for him. He's pretty sad that we won't be together to celebrate his birthday because he's on tour, and me, I'm in Toronto. Or at least he thinks I am.

@Y/U/N : Happy birthday baby. I wish you were home for this, but I think a lot about you. We'll celebrate that later, but for now, kill it tonight ❤

I post this on my Twitter as I hear the announcement from the speakers saying we're gonna land in a few minutes. I buckle my seatbelt and put my earphones back in my bag. Once I reach the hallway of the airport, I can feel a rush of I-don't-even-know-what in my whole body. I guess I'm excited and scared at the same time.

"Hey Geoff ! Have you some news about Shawn ?" I send the text and wait a few seconds before he answers.

"Yeah, he finished the rehearsals a while ago and now he's resting in his dressing room. I'm on my way to pick you up."

"Isn't he suspecting anything ?"

"Not at all. He whines all the time for you actually, but we keep on telling him he has to wait until he's back in Toronto. That's kinda cute, but really funny when you see his face 😂"

A sigh of relief escapes my lips. Now, I'm sure everything is working like I want it to.

"Ok. Thanks, Geoff. Now, keep your eyes on the road, I don't want you to have an accident."

I grab my suitcase that was on the carousel and I walk outside to wait for Geoff. A few moments later, a black van appears right in front of me. I hear the door open and see my good friend standing there, his arms open for me. I walk towards him and hug him before we both hop in the car.

"I'm so stressed. What if he knows something ?" I say, playing with my fingers.

Geoff keeps his eyes on the road while speaking to me.

"C'mon Y/N, I told you he doesn't have a clue about what's going on. Andrew makes him do stupid stuff to keep him busy." He laughs a little, probably imagining Shawn obey his manager.

The rest of the ride was pretty quiet. Him focusing on the itinerary, and me trying to reassure myself.

"Ok so now, you wait here. I'm gonna check if Shawn is away, and then, you'll follow me in the dressing room. You'll wait there for the middle of his concert, and I'll come back for the surprise, alright ?"

I simply nod and see him hop off the car. Two minutes later, my door opens, and Geoff shows me the way we have to follow. We make it to Shawn's dressing room without any sounds escaping our mouth. Matt and Brian are here too so I hug them and talk a bit about the surprise with them, because they helped me to organize all this as well. Then, Geoff turns on a small tv.

"You can watch the show on the screen. We're going now, otherwise he will wonder where we are. He's in the backstage right now. See you later !" Geoff says quickly before shutting the door behind the three of them.

I sit on the couch and wait for Shawn to go on stage.

Shawn's P.O.V

"Ok, Shawn. Give us all you have, the crowd is really excited tonight. They want you to have an amazing birthday." Andrew smiles at me, looking into my eyes.

I nod as he pats my shoulder. I take my guitar and run on stage, screams and crying coming from the fans.

"She takes the long way home..." I sing the last words of the song.

Suddenly, all the lights go off except the one above me. I furrow my eyebrows, not understanding what is happening. Technical difficulties, maybe ?

I soon realize what's going on when I see my team walking on stage with a big cake and 19 candles on it. My smiles grows bigger and bigger as the crowd keeps on screaming and singing happy birthday.

I give my guitar to one of the assistants before hugging everyone. Once the song ends, I blow out the candles. Geoff takes a mic and his voice resonates in the entier area.

"Happy birthday, Shawn ! I'm proud to be one of your friends. We love you, and we wish you the best." He speaks and the crowd becomes even crazier.

I hug him again before he adds something else.

"I have another surprise for you tonight. We've prepared this for a few days, even weeks now. So, here it is."

He shows me the side of the stage with his arm. I furrow my eyebrows once again and follow his gaze.

My eyes meet the ones I've been craving for so long now. My jaw drops, and I start to jump up and down to finally run to her. My eyes start to water.

My princess is here.

I lift her up, and she wraps her legs around my waist not to fall, her laugh making my heart melt. I hug her so tightly that she probably can't breathe. Then, I put her down on her feet and kiss her with so much passion that butterflies erupt in my stomach, and the fans go wild. I missed the taste of her delicious lips.

Someone hands her a mic, and she starts to speak.

"Happy birthay, baby. Thank you to Geoff, Matt, Brian, and Andrew for their help. I couldn't miss your birthday so here I am. I love you so much, Shawn."

I kiss her once again before she whispers in my ear a "see you after the show". The guys cheer and Zubin hands me my electric guitar to go on with the show.

"Thank you. Thank you so much to everyone. I love you guys." I nearly weep with joy.

I start to play the chords of the next song with a big toothy smile on my face.

Damn, I love this girl.
