Yes to xpsychxssjs who got my question right it did indeed come from "In Plain Sight" all the other guesses were good to but not correct. This is basically a recap of some event from Shawn and Juliet's childhood hope you like!


Juliet walked up the walk way to the red and white house of her husband's childhood home. Shawn by now had told Juliet all about his childhood. How his dad had trained him in all parts of the property. How he had broken his arm jumping from a tree that was in the side yard. How his dad and himself had gotten into a heated argument in the yard resulting in hurt feelings, and things that shouldn't have been said. But it also held some good memories. Like when his mom and dad had bought him a BB gun and he was allowed to shoot it with his parent's supervision. Or when he played he games with Gus and his others friends.

Juliet looked at a spot on the sidewalk that was stained red with blood as Shawn had told her. He and his cousins (his mom's brother's son and daughter) had dared him to slide on roller blades down the stairs and they caught onto a rock sending him flying through the air resulting in a cracked head. Some of the stories Shawn had told her seemed weird and stupid along with untrue. But he always had some shred of evidence to prove that it had happened.

And the time that Gus had accidentally shot Shawn with the BB gun in the arm at close range giving him a big bruise. Little holes littered the grown that were made by random things that had happened during Shawn's childhood. Her own was nothing like this.

Her own childhood had been really happy and un-stressful. Sure she had two brothers that were older but they never terrorized her as Shawn's older cousins had done to him. Saturdays they would wake up, eat breakfast then play outside all day together. Playing tag, hide and seek, maybe some baseball or soccer. But never did they have to analyze cartoons, or learn how to get free from handcuffs at an early age. While Juliet's parents taught her that lying was bad, Henry had taught Shawn how to lie and not get caught. Their childhoods were completely opposite.

Juliet never went back to her childhood home and she had loved it there, Shawn had hated this old house yet he always went back to it. That's what brought them there today. Henry had broken his leg and needed some help getting around, and taking care of the property. Since Shawn was his son and knew the property it fell to him to help out.

"Don't overwater the plants," Henry called out to Shawn who groaned.

"Dad I know,"

"And don't let any snails into the garden,"

"Dad!" Shawn shouted annoyed.

"Don't yell at me!" Henry yelled at Shawn.

"I wasn't yelling Henry," Shawn shouted as he lifted up a bag of soil. Henry grumbled and threw an old rubber ball at Shawn.

"You're mature," Shawn told him. According to Shawn that old ball had come from his Cousin Jeremy's school.

"Hey," Juliet said walking up behind Henry.

"He's useless can't do anything right!" Henry shouted.

"I heard that!" Shawn's voice came from the shed.

"You were supposed to!" Henry shot back.

"Have either of you thought that maybe yelling at each other isn't helping?" Juliet asked.

"He doesn't think at all," Henry said.

"It's like I'm a kid again," Shawn said walking onto the porch wiping dirt off his face.

"Yeah and your just older and more childish," Henry said turning in his wheelchair going into the house.

"I'm childish? And who's the one who tried jumping off a wall and ended up breaking their legs? And you are just old and cranky," Shawn shouted following his father inside. Juliet smiled and looked around the house's yard. She hoped that maybe one day she and Shawn's kids would grow up here in this house but without all of those injuries and stunts.


What you think? And I have some questions...

the stories better with the kids or with just Juliet and Shawn?

I have more father son moments between Henry and Shawn?

Maddy and maybe Lassie and Gus need to be in a few more chapter?

Answering these few questions will help me appeal more to you guys, and it will help me with my creative process. ~ Psychic101
