Mitchie had to give Shane Tesoro.
Her precious baby wasnt going to stay with her.
"Mitchie.."
She looked at Shane sadly.
She looked at his hallow face and his sad eyes.
It wasn't the Shane she had on her walls when she was 15.
She couldnt believe how much they had changed.
"Yeah?"
"Just come stay at my place, its better than you sitting here alone in the dark."
"For Tesoro, its not another step in our relationship, promise?"
He sighed and nodded.
"Yes Mitchie, it isnt another step in our relationship, we are still at the same place we have been at"
She nodded.
"Okay."
She took back Tesoro and cuddled him against her chest.
She sighed.
"Shane..."
He smiled sadly.
"I know Mitchie, you arent ready."
She smiled.
"Thanks Shane."
"And besides, this makes it easier to go to our appointments."
She groaned.
"Damn it."
He smiled.
"Now you have to go to them."
"Your a con-artist Shane Grey, do you know that?"
"Oh well."

Mitchie started throwing her clothes into random drawers in a dresser of Shane's guest room.
She was here for Tesoro.
Not Shane.
That was her mantra.
She kept telling herself that.
Here for Tesoro.
Not Shane.
She was fine with where they were in their relationship.
It was awkward.
But it worked for them.
It wasnt moving anywhere.
But it was comfortable.
And no one would get hurt like last time.
She was fine with it.
Just absolutely fine.
