Chapter 20

Shawn went outside to get some fresh air and found Chloe crying there. He just took her in his arms and said it has to be okay. He asked Chloe if he could talk to her about something so he can get it off his chest. Chloe said sure go for it. Shawn told her that he only said those things to Belle because I was jealous I couldn't take it.

So I snapped. It just hurt that the night before she was kissing me and then she was hanging all over some other guy. I should have never said what I said I have tried to explain it to her but now it may be too late. Chloe decided that she would fix this for Belle in case she did pull through one less stress for her. Chloe said, "Look, Shawn she really like you, you are all she has talked about since she saw you. Belle is nothing close to a slut she is sweet and she just happens to have more guy friends than girl friends. Kurt the guy she was with at the game is her best friend they dated for like a week it didn't work so they are still best friends. She wanted you to be jealous of him she wanted you to hurt like she is hurting. It may seem weird that she likes you so much when you guys really just meet but she said she felt this connection instantly and the sparks she felt when you kissed were indescribable to her.

So Shawn you really hurt her. I don't blame you if you don't like her but the way you handled it was harsh." Shawn told Chloe that he likes Belle and that scares him. He doesn't want to get really involved and then have to leave for school and have to leave her here. He said that he felt the same connection but I told myself to forget her and just have fun. I even told myself that she would find millions of guys to date this summer and that we could just try to be friends. I thought that was the answer but when I saw her with Kurt I wanted to kill him. He said Chloe I really care about her and I am terrified that I will hurt her. I don't want to start a relationship and then have to leave. What if the long distance thing doesn't work? Chloe just said to tell all this to Belle. Then she said why in the hell haven't you apologized to her yet.

Shawn just looked at her what more does she want. I have tried I have called, stopped by, went into the restaurant with the food fight, not to mention that I had 4 dozen roses sent to her house. And a dozen sent to your house today.

She said, "Shawn she never got any flowers." Shawn was confused, so you and Mimi got your flowers but Belle didn't that doesn't make sense we ordered from the same place. Chloe said Shawn no one got any flowers. So with that Chloe called her apartment building and was told there were 3 dozen roses dropped off for her and her friends. Chloe said well Shawn we got all fixed up to try to get you guys to apologize. But at the party Belle said all she wanted was to be in your arms. She didn't need no fancy apology she just wanted you to hold her. SO you go do that you go be with her she needs all the strength we can give her.
