broken hearts

sterling:" anything for you my love"

Shannon: A hesitant, small smile played on my lips for a second. He was more than I thought I deserved, and so good to me. I hoped he knew that. "We should head back in the other room, huh?" I asked, quietly, but louder than before as I wiped the unshed tears from my eyes.

sterling:" if you want we can "

Shannon: I nodded, "Yeah, I'm fine now." That was a stretch, but I wasn't lying to him.

sterling:" okay shannon " i said pull her lips to mine so i could kiss her

Shannon: I kissed him back, waiting a moment before I pulled away. My mood improved slightly, not measurably though.

sterling:" what do you want to do now shannon?"

Shannon: I half-smiled in thought. I had a couple ideas. Pretend nothing happened until later...go ahead and cry...kill Blake, which I would definitely do sometime soon...try to visit my dad. "I'm not sure." I answered honestly, almost downheartedly.

sterling:" lets go on a walk shannon"

Shannon: "That sounds good." I agreed, even though I predicted he would want me to tell him what the phone call was about, and I wasn't exactly eager to.

sterling:" then lets go my love"

Shannon: "Okay, Sterling," I said, and we both said goodbye to Vage and Rose before we left home.

sterling: i grab shannon hand and lead her around town

Shannon: I subconsciously held Sterling's hand tightly, and was wondering where he was taking me, but I didn't ask. I was secretly starting to become depressed. I couldn't help it. (g2g)

sterling: i took her to the park so we could relax there

Shannon: Naturally, I glanced around, and picked the same spot to sit on the grass when he first took me here. It just seemed right as everything else in my life was falling apart.

sterling: i sat down next to her i put my arms around her as i hold her close to me

Shannon: I sighed softly as I rested my head on his chest, "I suppose you want to know what all that was about, huh?" I asked quietly.

sterling:" i do but i want you to tell me when you are ready to talk shannon"

Shannon: I took in a breath before starting, "Well...Blake sent someone to my parent's house...my mom's dead...and my dad's expected to join her soon." I bit my lower lip to try to mask my emotional pain.

sterling: " sorry about your parents and don't hide your pain shannon its bad if you hide it"

Shannon: I looked up at Sterling before I finally let the tears spill from my eyes. It seemed like every time things were going fine, harsh reality came back, and ruined it all.

sterling: i pull her closer to me as i wipe her tears away

Shannon: I tried to smiled just a little bit, but I couldn't. I kept myself from sobbing hysterically.

sterling: i just kept holding her i know she needs me right now
