Okay here is the second chapter.

Chapter 2: The aftermath part 1

He had to come up with something big. Really big.

Yesterday evening had been a disaster. Juliet had been so pissed off. He had spent hours in the Psych office just pacing up and down in front of his desk since the arguement.

But his mind was totally blank so far and that was really a rarity. He was able to remember every little detail in a room only with a quick look but he couldn't come up with a plan to somehow regain Juliet's trust?

He plopped down in the seat Juliet had been sitting in only ten hours ago and buried his head in his hands. Shit, he thought. How could it be possible that his life has changed from awesome to crap in such short time? Yesterday everything had been just fine. He'd had this amazing woman as his girlfriend. The woman he'd wanted for five years and who finally had agreed to date him. And now?

Why had he come clean to her? Wouldn't it have been better if he had just kept his mouth shut for once? No, he'd had no other choice. He'd had to tell her because telling the truth was important to her. But he had hoped she would understand the real reasons why he had lied to everyone. But she didn't give him a real chance to explain it to her and he couldn't hope for a chance in the near future. Because she was really, really mad at him and for once his charm wasn't going to help him get out of this mess.

He lifted his head from his hands and stared aimlessly into the room but his gift didn't let him rest at all.

Damn! His photographic memory was nearly killing him right now. He really hated his gift for the first time in his life. He wasn't fond of it either when his father didn't cease bullying him to try and enhance this ability.

But now he was sitting here in the Psych office and he could remember every little detail of Juliet's face last night. The disbelief, the hurt and then the anger. Her beautiful eyes told him everything and what hurt him the most was the brief flash of disappointment he saw in them before the anger took over.

Had he really hoped she would brush his revelation off like it was nothing important? Only a random fact about him and that would have no effect on their relationship? He was an idiot. A damn great fool. He just lost the best thing that ever happened to him. He dropped his head back on the seat and put his hand over his eyes. But his mind didn't want to stop spinning. He had to find a way. There has to be a way. Somewhere. He only had to think harder. He would find it. But at the moment he was only exhausted and without really wanting to, he drifted off to sleep. Tomorrow, he thought only half-awake. He would find a way tomorrow.

Okay, that's it. I know it's a little short.

But it's only a filler chapter and I wanted to describe Shawn's state after Juliet left because in front of others he will be his happy shiny self or he will try to fool them. You will see.
