Shane's Confession

Shane had somehow managed to slide underneath Cherish's body and she was laying peacefully on top of him. Everyone in the building was asleep and it was so quiet you could have heard a pin drop. Shane had been wake for the past hour or so and he was thinking about the past, his past with Cherish.

…. Flashback….

"Shane, wait up!" A sixteen year old Cherish came running over to a twenty year old Shane and he smiled to her. She ran into his open arms and he kissed her right on the lips. She was pretty for her age and very loyal to him. He promised to protect her but she was leaving for home because she had to go to school. She would be turning seventeen soon and he would happy.

"Cher, I'm gonna miss you so much, baby doll." Shane whispered to her and she smiled to him and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"I'm gonna miss you too, Sugar Shane." Cherish saw him grin at her and she wrinkled her nose. Their relationship was a secret as it would have been illegal otherwise.


"You know we have been together for a little over three years. You know I love you so much sweets, right?" Shane asked her while he held her steady against his body.

"Of course, baby, why?" Cherish asked him a little scared by his question.

"No reason, except that I just wanted to make sure you knew. Remember that okay Cher?" Shane felt like he should be keeping her there but he didn't want anyone to get in trouble and he didn't want to loose her. He kissed her as she nodded her head. She didn't want to leave either and he could see that, but there wasn't anything that he could do to stop it.

…. End Flashback….

Shane stroked Cherish's hair and smiled down at her while she continued to sleep. Then he felt horrible as he remembered the day that Matt and Jeff had found out that Shane had been going with Cherish for so long. They told him that he had to break up with her. That her being with him wouldn't work. Shane tried to reason with them but in the end he picked up the phone and dialed Cherish's number. It was the most devastating phone call he had ever made and it was also one of the biggest mistakes he had ever made in his life.

…. Flashback….

"Cherish, baby doll?" Shane's voice was shaky because he had been crying and was still upset. Cherish heard his voice and at once became worried.

"What's wrong, Shane? Are Matt and Jeff okay?" Cherish asked but Shane didn't answer and that's when she realized what had happened.

"They found out didn't they?" Cherish felt the tears coming to her eyes because she knew what would come next.

"Yes, baby, I'm sorry, but we have to end this. I love you and I always will with every fiber of my being. I'm sorry, baby, but I gotta go now. I love you, bye." Shane had gotten off quickly and when he placed the phone in its cradle he picked up the phone and threw it into a wall. Matt and Jeff looked in and they realized that something else had happened between Cherish and Shane.

"I LOVED THAT GIRL, MATT! I PROMISED HER THAT I WOULD PROTECT HER, BUT HOW CAN I PROTECT HER FROM ME? I LOVED HER!" Shane screamed at them and Matt shook his head slowly.

"You had sex with her, didn't you?" Matt asked and Shane looked at him in shock. Shane walked over to Matt and got up into his face and punched him before speaking.

"No, Matt! We made love! She wanted me to! I asked her and she said yes! I was her first! I was her first!" Shane saw Matt look at him with a face of pure pity and sympathy. Jeff held Shane back as he began to try and hit Matt again and soon Shane became ragged and Jeff held him while he cried horribly.

"What have I done! I just told the best thing that's ever happened to me that I don't want her anymore! Why!" Shane cried to Jeff who glared at Matt. Matt just shook his head and walked out of the room leaving Shane and Jeff alone.

…. End Flashback….

Shane had tears running down his cheeks and he couldn't help it when he reached down and caressed her cheeks softly. He felt her move and she opened her eyes.

"Shane, are you okay?" Cherish asked him as she saw the tears coming down his cheeks. She kissed them away and he shook his head. She got off of him and he sat up, allowing her to sit next to him. He began to cry as she held him close to her chest.

"I'm sorry that I broke up with you, Cher. I loved you the very first time I saw you and I still love you now." Shane was crying without any resistance but Cherish shook her head at him.

"I know you did and I know you still do, but can't you see that I'm happy now?" Cherish asked him unaware that Matt was listening with his eyes still closed and Tito at the door listening carefully.

"Okay, so you are with him but how did you ever mend your heart?" Shane asked her and she shook her head again.

"I just moved on the best way I could, I ignored the pain." Cherish stroked his hair and he suddenly stopped crying and she let go of him. He looked at her and she felt like someone had just hit her with lighting. She saw him moving forward but se didn't move back. She felt his lips meet hers and she lost her self for a moment until something told her to stop.

"Shane, I can't. I mean seriously I love Tito. I don't know what's going to happen with my life right now, okay? I just want to move on is all. I'm gonna go see Rey and talk to him for a while. Get my mind off of all of this, okay?" Cherish started for the door and she saw it opened a crack. She gasped and opened it to reveal Tito looking somewhat somber and somewhat angry.

"Listen, nothing happened. I'm going over here and I just want to be alone for a bit." Cherish slid over to Jeff's room and slid inside, with Tito's eyes glued to hers until she was out of his sight. She shut the door and locked it. She slid down to the floor and at once Rey was up and he looked at her.

"Let's go see Eddie. Come on, he knows exactly what to say in these kind of moments, come on, mami." Rey helped her up and walked outside past Tito and Shane who exchanged worried looks with him. Rey frowned at them both and walked over to Eddie Guerrero's room and knocked loud enough for him to hear. The door soon opened and when Eddie saw Cherish's tear stained face he at once invited them in. They went in and Cherish sat down in between Rey and Eddie.

"I can't seem to do anything right, Eddie. I just want to know why all these guys are fighting for my heart." Eddie at once hugged her like a father would and rubbed her back.

"I know that times are gonna get hard on you. He is always there by your side though." Eddie made a reference to God and Cherish smiled to him.

"I know, Eddie, but haven't I seen enough? Haven't I hurt enough?" Cherish saw Eddie nod and she saw him look down.

"Cherish, we all hurt. It's to make us stronger and wiser. I know it seems like punishment but it's not. It's only proving that you are one of God's stronger angels." Eddie's words seemed to calm Cherish down but she had one final question for him as she stood to leave with Rey.

"Will I make the right decision when it comes to who I love?" Cherish saw Eddie nod as he stood and walked over with her and Rey to the door.

"Yeah, of course, because it's in your heart. It's always hard to follow your heart but when the time comes you will know and you will realize who really cares about you in the way you want." Eddie said and Cherish nodded giving Eddie a hug.

"You really are one of God's angels, Eddie. Thank you." Cherish then turned and walked away with Rey behind her.

"Hey, Shane she doesn't love you anymore! Get over it!" Tito yelled at Shane who had began to walk over to Cherish and Cherish saw him stop dead in his tracks. Shane looked at her and then she shook her head.

"Shane, no come here now. If you really care about me at all then you'll come here right now." Shane nodded and continued over to her and smiled giving her a hug.

"Okay, that's it! I mean you have hugged on guys and I've known about your kiss with John! I know about Shane too!" Tito looked livid and by now Matt and Jeff were out of their rooms. Randy, John, Ash, Trish, Adam, Amy, and Mickie all came running out of their rooms and looked at the two fighting. Matt was able to see Cherish's eyes and at once he knew she was going to be able to win this fight.

"I thought you trusted me Tito! Every time someone did kiss me, like John and Shane, I would pull back and say I was in love with you! I should have known that you wouldn't trust me! No one ever does!" Cherish yelled at him and she walked over closer to him.

"Oh, so I guess that means you don't love me anymore! Is that it? Is that what you want?" Tito was walking over to her and she began to cry as he yelled those words to her.

"NO! I NEVER SAID THAT AT ALL! WHY WOULD I EVER STOP LOVING YOU!" Cherish screamed at him making him stop dead in his tracks. His red face began to slowly return to its normal color. Cherish stood in her spot rooted to the ground, crying.

"I love you T! What more do you want from me! I love you baby! I love you!" Cherish cried to him as he walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her and held her close to his body.

"I'm sorry, Cherry. I do trust you and I do love you. It's just hard after being with girls who always end up hurting me in the end." Tito felt Cherish push away from him and she looked up at him as he looked down at her.

"I would never hurt you, Tito. I promise you." Cherish leaned up and met him halfway as they kissed and she felt better suddenly.

"Awww!" Everyone around them yelled as they kissed again and Cherish smiled to Tito and they went to her room and lay down. It had been a long night and it was going to be an even longer day.
