Ch.31

Allison still felt really bad about what had happened the week before, however tried hard not to think about it. She knew that Shayne had tried contacting her a few times but still didn't feel like talking to him. She knew she would eventually but not just yet her "wounds were still fresh"

At around 1am on Tuesday she heard her phone ring.

"Who the hell is calling so late!" Allison whispered to herself as she turned to look at the clock, which showed "1:12am".

"Hello?" Allison said with a groggy sound in her voice and he eyes still closed.

"Baby, its Shayne"

Allison hung up as soon as she heard "Shayne" .. She sat up on her bed quietly hoping her mom hadn't heard the phone ring. She quickly answered the second time he called without letting the first ring finish.

"what do you want?" Allie let out before anything else was said.

"Allison please don't hang up on me." Pleaded Shayne.

"I thought I told you not to call"

"I know but please just listen to me"

"Why should I?"

"Because Allison, I love you… I'm so sorry…. " before he could say anything else Allie spoke.. "Listen Shayne though you might not believe it, what you did hurt me more than everything else that happened on that trip, I honestly meant everything I said in that note, including the part that its over, please don't bother with me anymore, go back to whoever left you those hickeys. I'm making this easy for you so move on"  with that and without letting Shayne get a word in she hung up the phone and turned off the ringer.

Allie cried herself to sleep that night.

~~~~A tear ran down Shayne's cheek he felt terrible! He tried calling back but she wouldn't answer anymore. If everything she said in the letter was true ,like she said it was, then that meant that she still loved him. Shayne still wasn't gonna give up. With everything Allison told him he knew now more than ever that he really loved her and couldn't live his life with anyone else that wasn't her.

Shayne was at band practice the next day and told Jerry what happened.

"Damn so she didn't even let you speak when u called?" asked Jerry.

"Nah man, she practically told me off then hung up and I'm guessing turned her ringer off 'cause I tried calling back and she wouldn't pick up"

"So what do u plan on doing now? You're leaving in less than a week."

"I know I'm leaving soon but I don't know what to do anymore. Jerry I cant lose Allison, she' the one I want to spend the rest of my life with, I'm so miserable without her."

"Shayne, how about you two meet somewhere and talk in person?"

"I've gone to her house but her mom always tells me she's not home and shuts the door in my face." Shayne said looking down and sighing in sadness.

Jerry looked down at his friend who was sitting on a stool with his hands on his chin and wet eyes. Jerry had never ever seen Shayne like this over a girl which made him believe even more that Allison was the one for him. He wanted to help him out but how? Then it hit him. He was going to talk to Chloe and try to set something up but wouldn't tell Shayne anything unless something good came out of his conversation with Chloe first
