Hey everyone! I am a hardcore Reuce shipper. And I always be. Any Reuce fans left out there? This is a Zendam story (Zendaya Coleman and Adam Irigoyen). They aren't celebrities in this story, just normal teenagers. But I have kept some of the things from Shake It Up, I think you'll notice. Every character from Shake It Up(Including Gunther and Logan) is in this, except they all have their real names.

"Hurry up Maria!"

"I can't run anymore!"

"Come on dear, just a few more steps ahead."

The couple arrived at the steps of a huge mansion. Maria couldn't go trek up those steps, so she handed the baby to her husband, Erik, who went up ahead.

Maria gasped as she heard distant shouts from behind her. She blinked, hoping she was just imagining them.

But they were here.

They were getting nearer, the one in front was holding a gun, with his finger on the trigger. He was the fastest of the whole gang. And he was coming towards her.

She glanced back at her husband who was now coming down towards her. He scooped her up in his arms and ran.

Maria looked back at the woman holding her child and shouted: "cuidar de él!" Which was Spanish for 'Take care of him."

The woman nervously nodded and went inside. Maria's eyes went back to the gang who were now close behind. She saw the gun, she heard the gunshot, and she saw the bullet whiz towards her.

Everything went black.


"Ahh!" Adam yelled, jumping out of his bed. He was sweating and panting. He looked around, making sure he was really in his room. He lay on the carpeted floor, curled up and silently wept.

He had these nightmares every night. And he was really getting scared. He doesn't know who any of those people are and why they haunt his dreams every night. But he keeps them to himself. The only other person who knows is his best friend Bella, who's house he was heading to now.

He put on some grey jeans, black combat boots, a black hoodie, with a black leather jacket over it. Adam silently opened his window and climbed out. Out his window was a huge oak tree that's been growing for a long while now. Adam's been climbing it ever since he was six years of age.

He climbed down and ran away.

Adam has learned to stick to the darkness and never bee seen. It's a trick he learned from his father, Salvatore De La Mayitonda Irigoyen. The most powerful man in all of Chicago.

But not in a good way. Salvatore is a boss. He's got a team of thieves, drug dealers, etc...He's a man of many talents. He could take a hat right off your head without you knowing it. He knows how to cover up his track well. He's Chicago's Most Wanted.

Salvatore has decided to pick up all of Chicago's most meanest men and woman, and train them to become better at their jobs. He could fill the whole of Chicago with his team of evil. And he's trained them well. Thanks to his team, Salvatore is a very rich man. He provides for his dear family, who he loves more than anything else in the world.

At night, Adam could walk on the streets without worrying about being mugged, or kidnapped. Every criminal knows not to mess with their boss's family or anything. It's kind of a perk really.

Adam knows he was adopted, he realised that when he didn't look anything like anyone from his criminal family, and it had taken him a few years of training to become a proper thief, while his three older siblings completed training in three months.

Adam hated his life. He hated that down in the underground basement, the worst the city has to offer are planning the next bank heist, or discussing who knows too much information about them and how they should execute the murder. He hated that everyday in school, Adam had to earn money by selling goods to the kids in school. Salvatore had forced Adam to do that, he'd split the money between the both of them.

Adam only has a few friends, and he's happy with them. His best friend in the whole entire world, Bella Thorne. Bella's parents used to fight every single night, and Bella, along with her brother's Davis and Leo. One night, the father went nuts, he beat up his wife and raped Bella. There was nothing her brother's could do.

Bella became a quiet girl, flinching everytime anyone touches her. It just gave her bad memories. She was paired with Adam for a Social Studies project and the two instantly became friends. They both understood each other, and most important, they were there for each other. Salvatore had made Bella promise that she doesn't tell a single soul about the Irigoyen Family Criminals or she'd have to simply be killed. He also became friends with her brothers shortly.

The second person Adam became best friends with was Roshon, a street dancer and rapper who wants to follow his dream of becoming a professional at music and dance.

Next was Kenton and Caroline, two weird kids from a un-named country, who escaped and quickly adjusted to the American lifestyle.

And everyone of them, except for Davis who is Bella's fourteen year old brother, had to sign the secrecy papers just like Bella did. But being friends with Adam Irigoyen was pretty cool. Salvatore has connections every where around the world, and that got Adam and his friends into some cool places most seventeen year olds weren't allowed in.

Adam knew they weren't being his friends just because of the cool things they could do, but because Adam needs friends. And that's just what they were.

True supportive friends.


He finally arrived at the Thorne's house.

It wasn't exactly a huge house like his own, but it was a nice peach coloured two storey. He easily located Bella's bedroom window, which was at the back of the house. He climbed over the fence and into her back yard, where Bella left a ladder for Adam to use whenever he would come over at night.

He silently slipped into her room, and listened to his best friend's soft snores. He noticed she had her arms wrapped around her little brother Davis, who probably had nightmares about their abusive father coming after him.

They've gone through a lot, and it angered Adam that the father easily got away. He even begged his father to find the man and kill him before he does anymore harm to women. To his surprise, Salvatore actually agreed and he sent his best Russian hunter after the man.

Adam softly pressed his lips on Bella's forehead. Her eyes shot open immediately and she tightened her grip on Davis. But she relaxed when she saw who it was. "Oh. Hey." she whispers.

"Hey." Adam whispers back.

"Come on up." She smiled, then closed her eyes. Adam nodded and took off his jacket and shoes. He fluffed the spare pillow Bella left and lay down. He was sleeping the other way so his feet were right beside Bella's face.

"Adam." she says.

"Yeah Bell?" he answers.

"Your socks reek." She giggled. Adam chuckled along with her.
