Chapter9
"What do you mean Mitchie?"
I stared down at me pink fingernails.
"Shane do you love me?" I was procrastinating.
"Mitchie...," he sighed, "Yes. I love you Mitchie I do."
"Then why won't you let me leave?"
I looked up at his face. His face was a mixture of emotions. Inpatients, then anger, next hurt, then love, and panic.
"Mitchie," he sighed again, "I'll let you leave, if it's what you really want, I just don't want you to leave."
"But it is what I want."
"Then," he spoke my words carefully making sure that he knew what he was saying, "Then… go," he let go of my hands and let them drift to my side.
"Shane it's not like that," I complained.
"I don't care what it's like Mitchie. If you want it then go."
"I don't want to," I admitted, "I just have to."
"You don't have to do anything," he said bitterly.
"Do you want me to stay? Like really."
"Of course."
"Then," I sighed, "I'll stay. But only for a while. I guess it just depends on what happens."
"So what did happen?" he pressed
"I don't want to talk about it."
"Okay fine, "he lifted my chin so that my face was eyes level with his. He slowly brought his mouth to meet mine. He kissed me slowly and passionately. It felt different. But a good different. Much better then Carlon's gross lips! I kissed him back equal excitement.
"I love you," I whispered my voice shaking.
"I love you too baby," he said against my lips.
I pulled away and rested my head on his chest and he wrapped his arms tightly around me. "Stupid Christmas," I muttered.
He stroked my hair slowly and soothingly. Everything felt normal again. Everything was right in my mind everything except that very small part of my mind that thought about that horrid night.

Finally I was back in my house. Shane and I had driven home soon after I had come home from church. We had made it home a couple hours ago. Shane had just gone to our room and was playing the guitar.
I was in the kitchen finishing up my dinner. I was finished quickly.
I decided to go get the Christmas boxes to put some of the decorations away. I walked past the first room, a bathroom, the second room, empty, and then past Shane's door. I heard him singing a song. It sounded pretty good. He had just finished singing it. He decided to play it again I guess, as I heard the same rhythm start to strum through his guitar. I started at his door. I know Shane didn't like me listening unless he wants me to but I couldn't resist. I slid down the wall and listened intently to the lyrics of the song.
Looked down from a broken sky
Traced out by the city of lights
My world from a mile high
Best seat in the house tonight
Touched down on the cold black tile
Hold on for a sudden stop
Breath in the familiar shock
Of confusion and chaos
All these people going somewhere
Why have I never cared?
Give me your eyes for just one second
Give me your eyes so I can see
Everything that I've been missing
Give me your love for humanity
Give me your arms for the broken hearted
The ones that are far beyond my reach
Give me a heart for the once forgotten
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Step out on the busy street
See a girl and our eyes meet
Does her best to smile at me
To hide what's underneath
There's a man just to her left
Black suit and a bright red tie
Too ashamed to tell his wife
He's out of work
He's buying time
All these people going somewhere
Why have I never cared?
Give me your eyes for just one second
Give me your eyes so I can see
Everything that I've been missing
Give me your love for humanity
Give me your arms for the broken hearted
The ones that are far beyond my reach
Give me a heart for the once forgotten
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
I've been there a million times
Just a couple of million eyes
Just move and pass me by
I swear I never thought I was wrong
Now I want a second glance
Give me a second chance
To see the people you see alone
Give me your eyes for just one second
Give me your eyes so I can see
Everything that I've been missing
Give me your love for humanity
Give me your arms for the broken hearted
The ones that are far beyond my reach
Give me a heart for the once forgotten
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Give me your eyes for just one second
Give me your eyes so I can see
Everything that I've been missing
Give me your love for humanity
Give me your arms for the broken hearted
The ones that are far beyond my reach
Give me a heart for the once forgotten
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Then it was over. I slowly got up and walked to the door in the back. I grabbed a box and started packing (decorations).
