"Ok Isabella," she talked to herself,"It's not like you've never walked home before."
She turned her attention back to the street. Fixing her eyes on the pavement, a tear ran slowly down her cheek. I shouldn't be here. she thought, I should be back with him.
~Flashback~
Belle nestled against Shawn's bare chest as he kissed her gently, as he unbuttoned her blouse. " You sure 'bout this?" he breathed planting a kiss in her stomach, " Because I don't know if I can..."
" Oh my god!!"
Shawn jumped off the couch. "M...m..mm..mom! Dad! I thought you were at that convention thing for JT?!!" he stuttered before realizing that he and Belle were less than half clothed.
Bo's face was beat red. "It's a damn good thing it got over early!" he screamed.
"Honey, " Hope, the one who had spoken first," Just calm down."
"Calm down???!!!!1 Calm down??!!!!! How the hell do you expect me to calm down???!!!!" Mr. Brady fumed, " We went away, we trusted him! And now we come back and fine him, find him! " He stopped as his wife turned him to their son , who was helping Belle, who was trembling with fright and embarrassment , get her blouse re buttoned.
"I'm so sorry," he whispered to her, caressing her cheek, " This wasn't supposed to happen. I'm so sorry."
She smiled back up at him. " Hey, don't worry. " turning to the adults, "Um, I think maybe I should get going."
Hope smiled at her, "It's ok hun, here let me drive you home." She offered, picking her car keys back up.
"No.' Belle stopped her," No thanks Mrs.Brady, I think i need some air any way.I'll walk."
"Than I'll walk with you." Shawn offered.
She turned to him and smiled sweetly, whispering , " No it's ok..I , I don't wanna have your dada even more upset."
"But you live half way across town, it's late! You don't know how many.." he was stopped by a kiss from her.
" Don't worry bout me though boy, I'll be fine" She giggled and headed for the door.

Back on the street, Belle wiped away some final tears. " Get ahold of your self, girl, this is no way to be. Just get ahold of yourself. It's not like the end of the world." she smiled softly to herself," This is just one more set back, you'll be in his arms soon enough, besides, maybe its best they came in,I mean we still didn't have protection, and," she laughed, as she talked to herself," I can just see Shawn as a dad right now."
That took her a moment to think about, she stood there, picturing him cradlling small gurgling bundle in his arms,"awwwwwww" she sighed as if it was really happening," He would make a good dad though...." she felt like slapping her self." Isabella Black! There you go again!" She giggled as if fighting with herself, " Oh well, just planning out the future."
Just than, she felt a arm on hers, it was cold, very cold, she spun around.
A deafening scream filled the air.
The figure banged belle against a tree, hard. As Bel;le slipped unconscious, she heard a wavy, " Why hello Belle."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shawn woke up some what groggy, and yawned. A smile spread across his face, as he thought about the night before." Damn, we were so close.He thought.
He sighed as he let his mind back track. He knew this was horrible of him to be thinking, but he couldn't help it, he wanted her, he wanted her badly, and know that he knew she wanted him to, he wasn't gonna let anything come between them. He loved her, pure and simple. He smiled again and flicked on the television.
The morning news spread against the screen. A fairly young woman looked back from the other side. Her hair was straight and jet black. She was ovoisly warring cover up to hide sleepy black underneath her eyes. Geez, girls, why do they care about make up??? He shook his head. I'll never completely get them.
The woman's monotonous voice filled the room, "And in more local news, A young Jane Doe was found. This girl, About sixteen or seventeen ,blonde hair, 5'5 , with pale blue eyes, was found early this morning. She was found unconscious,beaten,and slightly hypothermic, in a ditch on the corner of Milton and Sunrise,in Salem. She was found by a Elderly woman, who has been asked not to be identified, and was rushed to the local hospital. If you have any information about this young lady or her attacker please call the hospital at 555-9898."
They flashed a picture in front of the screen. Shawn's heat skipped a beat, as he flicked it to channel 4 which was a few minuets slower he heard the woman begin to tell about the foundy.
He grabbed the telephone and dialed a number as fast as he could.
"Black residence." Marlena's voice came.
"Mrs. Black, turn and channel; four."
The next thing to be heard was a shrill scream from the other side of the phone, and the dial tone.
His horrors confirmed, he jumped out of bed and pulled on the closest close he could,raicing to the car.
*************
Shawn put his hands in his face. "why why why why?" he said over, and over and over."
"Hey Brady."
Shawn looked up to Brady, and jumped up. than realized something. " Hey, why did you call me by my last name???"
Brady smiled," Hey man, I owe you one, if you hadn't turned on that tv, we may have never found her."He said hugging him, trying to hold back tears.
Shawn had never seen him that worked up, not really. He knew that two things mattered to Brady, His dad, and his sister, well and Chloe, but he won't admit that. Shawn laughed at himself, he was starting to sound like Belle.
He shook out of it. "You ok man?" He turned to Brady.
"Yeah."
"HOW IS SHE????" a nervous voice came from behind them.
Both spun around to see Chloe, Mimi , and Phillip come up.
"Well how is she?????!!!!" Chloe demanded.
Brady gulped, "She's..."
"Awake." They spun around again to see John Black standing there.
"WHAT??!!!" Brady laughed happily, finally letting the tears go, he hugged his farther tightly.
John, jokingly, made choking noises." Whoa whoa,.....a little looser bucko."
Brady laughed," K dad." and let go. " Can I see her???"
John laughed," Yeah,"
Brady raced off.
"AFTER," he yelled after him, stopping him in his tracks,
"After what??!!!" Brady started to lose his temper.
John burst out laughing once more." After Romeo over here goes to his calling Juliet." that made him laugh harder, for some odd reason.
Brady raised a eyebrow. "What? English please."
John looked at Shawn, and motioned with his head for him to go. "She want you. "
"Me?" Shawn's heart skipped a beat. I was the first thing she thought about?
John walked over to him, his grin gone."When she woke up she was moving around like she was having a bad dream, she woke up screaming your name. She was really scared. She was crying, and was begging for you." He put a hand on Shawn's shoulder as her saw his sunken face.
"What room?"he inquired.
"266"
Shawn walked past Brady, than stopped and look back," Hey man, do you mind? I mean.."
Brady grinned. " No way Romeo." he threw back his dad's odd joke, " Didn't I just say a while ago I owed you???"
Shawn grinned and turned into the room. It was fairly dark for the day. Flowers spread a tingly smell through the room. His eyes wondered over the beeping machines and blinking lights, until his eyes fell upon her.
Black and blues covered her almost completely. Her lip and eyebrow were cut. Her arm was in a cast and her hair was matted and torn in certian places. Shawn felt a tear form in his eye, but he brushed it away before he stood before her, and looked down in her eyes. Though so much had changed about her, her eyes remained the same.
"Hey Perfect Girl." he grinned calling her her nick name.
Belle smiled back up at him, crying,"Hey." she said shakily.
Shawn bent down and hugged her as tightly as he dared. He didn't hold back tears, there was no sense. He wanted to just curl up and trade spaces with her, to have all her pain go away. I could have stopped this. Rang in his mind like a broken record.
"Shhhhh." he found her comforting him. "I'm ok...." she kept crying," I'm so sorry Shawn, I'm so sorry, I should have listened to you. And now, because of my stupidity,...."
"You are NOT stupid!" he corrected her. " You couldn't have known! God Belle I'm the one to blame if anyone!Please baby, don't look at yourself that way. You are the most amazing , INTELLIGENT, girl, no woman I have ever known, and ever will!" He kissed her, vaporizing thier tears of sorrow and replacing them with happiness and thankfulness.
THREE WEEKS LATER:
Shawn sat beside Phillip in Dot Com reading.Scoffing, he put down his book. "This is redicuilous!"
"What is?" Phil asked puzzled.
"This book, this guy is saying to another guy. ' Never turn your back, your best friend could be your enemy!' I mean god! You KNOW your best friend, they wouldn't be your best friend if you didn't."
Shawn thought he saw Phil quiver a little, but said nothing. I wonder why he did that.
Just than, someone came stomping in. Phill and Shawn turned their attention to Brady, who looked like a raging hurricane.
Phill stood up and put a hand on Brady shoulder. "Whoa man, calm down What is it???"
Brady looked at both of them and bit his lip until his lip almost bleed. "You wanna know what's wrong??!!!!! Huh??!!!!! That bastard who attacked my little baby sister is gonna be a fucking farther!"...............
