A/N: First of all, I have to admit that the reaction of Shelby that I'm going to describe is actually my own reaction to the whole thing. But a bit more fun.
RIP Limewire.
Staring at the desktop of her computer, Shelby couldn't believe what she saw. Limewire, her favorite download platform had been shut down.
Although she normally wasn't the crying type, this actually brought tears to her face.
How could they do this to me? What did I do wrong? It's karma, is it? For leaving my daughter?
She was sad, angry and totally freaked. Normally she would have just tried to find a new program that could fulfill her needs, but this was different. Limewire had kept her company in her worst times. It had helped her solve any problem, by just downloading another song. She couldn't help but feel attached to the platform.
And the limes, oh god the limes, they were so damn cute! How can I ever forget these cute limes?
And it was true. The limes were cute. Noone would ever think anybody fell so in love with a program that they even loved the simple emblem of it. At least noone thought she would.

The next day she stayed at home, crying, eating ice cream, drinking vodka. It was like breaking up with a guy you loved for such a long time.
She didn't know how she could ever get out of this funk.

When she heard a knock on the door, she couldn't help but wonder who would come to visit her ten minutes before midnight.
Opening the door to see Jesse standing in front of it, she smiled slightly.
"I heard of your loss."
"Loss? I mean... When I called in sick, I said I had the flu. How did you...?"
"I know you, Shelby. You need music in your life and although you told everyone of us to buy music legally, I know you downloaded most of your music via Limewire. I read about the shutdown on the internet. I'm so... so sorry!"
The tears started falling again and she fell into his arms.
Crying in front of a student wasn't normal for her. Crying in his arms wasn't either. But she needed him now and she knew he understood her better than anybody else.

Two hours later, Shelby had fallen asleep on the couch, with her head on his chest.
Although that might not be the most appropriate way to spend the evening, it helped her and he was glad he could make her smile again.
Placing her head on one of the pillows, he left, closing the door behind him.
Wow, even Shelby got a heart. I didn't think she ever got attached to anything. Well, you learn something new every day.
The End.
A/N: Okay, I really have to go to bed now, have a huge English test tomorrow. Wish me luck! And REVIEW!
