Belle sat there just looking at the ring twirling it around her finger. It really was beautiful, no if ands or buts about it. There was only one problem, and that was whether or not she really did love the man that gave it to her. He had gorgous ocean blue eyes, but they weren't even close to as captivating as those chocolate brown ones she had fallen in love with years ago.

As the phone rang it woke Belle out of her thoughts

"Hello?" answered Belle wondering who would call this late

Nothing but silence

"Hello?" said Belle again

All she heard was a click

Usually Belle would've been freaked out but one she was really tired, two she was tired, and three she was just use to it. Being famous that sort of thing happened a lot.

After deciding it was to late to just sit there thinking about Shawn she headed off to bed.

As she layed down she opened up her drawr and pulled out a picture from her junior year. It was of her in her gold outfit at the Last Blast Dance with Shawn. They looked so happy and care free. What she wouldn't do to go back to that. She soon fell asleep with that picture still in her arms.

All night she tossed and turned those sad brown eyes kept haunting her in her sleep. This wasn't the first night, ever since Philip had asked her to marry him she had been having these dreams.

Everytime she had this dream it felt like she was there again. Back to the horrible day that Shawn Douglas Brady took her heart and shattered it into a million different peices. She was crying as she woke up in a cold sweat, looking around the room she calmed down knowing she was now safe and not still in the dream. She just shook her head, why'd everything have to get so messed up.

"It wasn't supposed to be this way." whispered Belle

Where had she heard that before... It was so familar, and then she remembered...

Graduation...

"Belle you can't just keep walking away!" yelled Shawn as he chased after her

When she turned around he stopped dead in his tracks as he saw the pain and hatred in her eyes.

"Why Shawn! I mean that's what you're so good at, I only learned from the best!" yelled Belle

As Shawn hung his head he mumbled something but Belle had heard him

"I think I heard what you just said but just for laughs how about you say it again for me!" said Belle she shook her head

"I said it wasn't supposed to be like this." said Shawn lifting his head

" How was it supposed to be then Shawn?" yelled Belle

"It was supposed to be me and you Belle! Me and you, not you and Philip!" yelled Shawn

"Oh don't you bring Philip into this Shawn Douglas Brady!" yelled Belle

"Why not! What are you scared that I might say something bad about your little night in shining armor?" Shawn was now screaming

"Philip has done nothing but be there for me when I needed someone the most!" said Belle screaming just as loudly now

"Oh please the very second I make a mistake and let you slip through my fingers Good ole Philip comes to sweep you off your feet! He's been trying to
work his way in and steal you from me for two years!"

"Maybe he did, but atleast he never hurt me." said Belle in almost a whisper

With one last shot he dared to look into her eyes

"I love you Belle."

Belle looked at the ground and with all of the strength she had left she answered back

"I don't love you anymore." said Belle never looking up

"Bullshit! If you can look me in my eyes and honestly and I mean truthfully say that you don't love me anymore i'll walk out of your life for good I promise." said Shawn staring at her

"I don't..." but she was cut off by Shawn

"Why do you even try to lie to me! You know I can see right through it!yelled Shawn

"Dammit Shawn why do you keep doing this to me?" begged Belle

Shawn stepped closer and wrapped his arms around her and kissing the top of her head he whispered "Because I love you perfect girl."

"Shawn, sometimes love just isn't enough." stated Belle as she started to pull away from his embrace

"Loves always enough." said Shawn just loud enough for Belle to hear him. As she was about to answer she heard someone calling her name.

"Belle! Hey Belle my mom wants pictures." yelled Philip

"I'll be righ't there!" yelled Belle as she turned back around to Shawn whiping her tears away

Shawn just stood there feeling empty without her in his arms

"I'll love you forever Tough Guy." whispered Belle as she leaned over and kissed him on his cheek "Goodbye Shawn."

And before Shawn could say anything back Belle ran off to Philip

"Hey Belle are you ok?" asked Philip as he put his arm around her and smiled for the picture

"I will be." answered Belle as she settled into his arms

Present Day

She knew her make up artist would be very angry having to try to coverup the dark circles under her eyes, but there was no way she was going to sleep at that latest memory. It was true though... she would always love him.
