Chapter 16
Belle didn't want to scare the child but yet she didn't want to tell a lie either. She just kinda tried to block the pain and smiled.
Belle: It hurts and yes my mom kissed it but it didn't make it completely better.
Mike: Well we will be going. I know you probably want to talk to your family and friends. I'm sorry about what happened and if you need anything please don't hesitate to call me.
Belle: Thank you. Bye Antoine.
Antoine: (reaches up and gives Belle a kiss on the cheek) Bye Belle Black!
The two left leaving John, Marlena, Brady, Mimi, and Shawn. Belle was really starting to wonder who the guy was. She looked at him with confusion in her eyes and Shawn realized he needed to introduce himself.
Shawn: Um, Belle, my name is Shawn Brady. Can I talk to you for a minute in private?
Belle's eyes widened and Mimi could sense that she was scared. Mimi walked over to the bed.
Mimi: I'll stay so Belle won't be by herself.
Marlena: Ok, we'll run down and get some coffee.
Her family left and Shawn walked closer to the bed.
Belle: Who are you? What are you doing in my room?
Shawn: Well I'm on the basketball team and I just wanted to say that I'm sorry about your accident. I feel like it is all my fault. I ran into the cheerleader and the other guy was watching me instead of watching you come down.
Mimi: I told Shawn that it wasn't his fault but he won't listen. He really wanted to talk to you.
Belle: (face turning red) It is ok.
Shawn: Are you in a lot of pain?
Belle: Um, yeah.
Mimi: Belle, Shawn would like to be your friend. He is really nice.
Shawn: Yeah I would like to hang out with you and get to know you better.
Belle: Uh, um, you want to be, uh, my friend?
