Chapter 42

Shawn: Belle what are we going to do about living arrangements with Zariana?

Belle: Once you prove to me that I can trust you maybe we should move into an apartment together so we can raise her together.

Shawn: Well see my grandfather bought me an apartment with 6 bedrooms and I was thinking that since you aren't comfortable with me alone that maybe we could live together there. Landon has his own room and so do Mimi, and Chloe. So you can have your own room and so can Zariana.

Belle: And then Mimi and Philip can share a room.

Shawn: Well that is if they are still together.

Belle: What are you talking about?

Shawn: Oh nothing. Don't worry about it. I'm going to go so you can get some rest.

Belle: No Shawn, please tell me what is going on.

Shawn: Mimi and Philip had a fight earlier as did Chloe and Brady. I think everything will be ok in the morning.

Belle: Tell me what the fight was about.

Shawn: I don't want to upset you, Belle. Just get some sleep.

Belle: Tell me Shawn.

Shawn: Well the fight was about you.

Belle: (confused) Why were they fighting about me?

Shawn: Are you sure that you want to hear this? I don't want to upset you.

Belle: Just tell me.

Shawn: Well Brady was blaming me for everything that has happened to you. And Mimi and Chloe pinned part of the blame on Brady and he lost it. He really was out of line. He won't listen to their side at all.

Belle: I really don't think that you should be judging my brother. You aren't exactly a saint Shawn.

Shawn: See Belle this is exactly why I didn't want to tell you.

Belle: I just don't understand why you are judging my brother. Brady has been nothing but helpful to me.

Shawn: I understand that, Belle. I didn't say anything about Brady. Chloe and Mimi were the ones blaming him and Philip.

Belle: I can't believe everyone is fighting because of me. I hate myself for doing this to them. You would probably be better off without me, Shawn.

Shawn: Don't you say that. I can't picture my life without you in it. When you weren't here, I made a mess out of my life. If I lost you again, I don't know what I would do. I love you so much Belle.

Belle: I want to see Brady. Will you get my brother for me?

Shawn: Belle but we aren't done talking.

Belle: Shawn go home and get a shower and some rest and come back. I need to spend some time with my brothers. I made this mess and I want to fix it.
