SPOV

i'm dead. well at least to Claire I am. It is best like this now i won't have to worry about her moving on or getting hurt even more, though I wish I could be there for her through whatever Morganville holds. I will fix it all in time I hope and Micheal will always be there for her and Eve too.

MPOV

It had been half a year since shane had "died" and claire and I had been together. Eve was out on a date with Richard Morell (i know right I still can't believe it sometimes). They met at common grounds turns out he had been watching her for a few days before asking her to dinner and Eve said it was amazing that he was so sweet and kind. I'm happy for her we just warn her about Monica all the time though richard promised she wouldn't go near her and I trust him...for now. Claire was in the kitchen making dinner and after a while I decided to help her out. I set my guitar up and walked into the kitchen and wrapped my arms around her waist. "Hello." I said kissing her neck gently. She smelled like the lemon shampoo she had and I could smell the spiceyness of her blood running swiftly through her veins as her heartbeat picked up when i held her. She smells heavenly but i had to pull my mouth away from her neck she trusted me but i didn't..not yet.

"Hey. You hungry?" She asked turning around in my arms and wrapping hers around my neck.

"Of course i'm hungry." I said laughing and kissing her gently. "Is it ready?"

She nodded and made me a plate and handed me my dark sports bottle. "Yeah eat up. but you don't have to."

"I want to i love your food." I smiled and set our stuff on the table but when she went back to get her drink i followed and lifted her up onto the counter and pushed my lips to hers. "Mmmm..." i heard her mumble and shudder as she deepened the kiss and pulled my closer wrapping her legs around my waist (more like legs since i was so tall). I wrapped my arms around her shoulders and felt her move even closer. The kiss was getting deeper and more fierce as the minutes , or hours who knew, rolled by. I don't think we would have broken apart if Eve hadn't walked in and banged her fist on the wall.

"Hey you guys break it up i don't want sex in my food!" She laughed and pushed past our entanglement to get a coke.

"Haha funny eve." I pulled claire down off the counter and headed to the table with her to eat. "Like you haven't gotten anything in monica's food yet."

"Nope just her brother's room." She shot back sarcastically and i heard claire almost choke on her food trying not to laugh.

"Really eve?"

"Really it was amazing!" She laughed

"No not that i meant you really had to say that?" Claire asked hiding a smile like i was.

"Yup. " eve replied popping the 'p' at the end.

"Well you girls..." I cut off as my phone rang and sighed. "Be right back ok?" I got up and walked to my room and answered. "Micheal here."

"Hey bro. how is claire and everyone?" Shane. I sighed as he started off with his normal sentence.

"Same as always man. Happy and healthy."

"Treating her right?" HE asked as if i wouldn't.

"Of course i am shane why wouldn't i.."

"Shane?..." I heard a small whisper behind me and turned to see Claire's horror stricken face.

"Claire.." I got up laying the phone down. "Listen to me i didn't lie.."

"You said he was dead! You told me he died." She backed up as i took a step closer.

"He told me to he wanted you happy." I stepped closer and she still stepped back. "he called and told me to he is watching out for you he wanted you to be happy."

"I am happy with you micheal. I would be happier if i knew he was alive too. I would have stayed happy with you. He just didn't want to deal with me anymore.." She sat down heavily. "He didn't wanna see me anymore.."

"No that wasn't it." I said and sat by her but she got up and walked out of the room silently and i heard her door close in a sense of finality.

"Shane man what have you done?" I hung up and went to go talk to claire or try and talk her out of her room.
