Chapter 2: Rumors and Gossip

Disclaimer: I own nothing.

A/N: Shanes thoughts on what people are saying about Mitchie. Lets see what he thinks.

Shane over the past two years had seen those headlines about Mitchie.

And he couldnt bring himself to believe any of them.

That sweet innocent little girl that he had met two years ago.

This wasnt her.

This wasnt the girl he had fallen for.

He knew these were just lies.

Mitchie was not morally capable of ever being worse than he had been.

She didnt seem like the kind to have pregnancy rumors spilled about her.

Or that she was interested in women.

Or a cheater.

But some times.

It was hard to believe it.

It was hard to convince himself that the photos on the cover of those magazines were doctored.

But the pictures were to believable.

Like Mitchie kissing someone who wasnt her boyfriend.

Or a picture of her kissing another female.

He couldnt bring himself to believe any of it.

For the past two years he had been convincing himself that it was because people were trying to tear her down.

Ruin her fanbase.

And they were doing it the messiest way.

Rumors and gossip.

The only way to completely ruin someones life.

And Shane hated the fact that someone was doing this to Mitchie.

He could only imagine how heartbroken she must be reading all of these lies about her.

And imagining her heartbroken.

Just makes him even more heartbroken than he usually is.

The world was out to get Mitchie.

When all Mitchie did for the world was give her amazing voice.

Something beautiful and pure she could have kept for herself.

But she was selfless.

And shared her voice with the whole world.

A world that didnt deserve to hear her voice.

Especially not with all of this gossip and rumors about her.

The only way they would ever deserve her voice is if they worshiped the ground she walked on.

Not trashed it.

They would deserve it if they treated her like a goddess.

Not a slut.

They would deserve it if they praised her.

Not trash her with gossip and rumors.

Trying to ruin her life.

Make her cry.

Cause her to feel horrible about herself.

That no one likes her.

Thats all the rumors and gossip does.

And it breaks Shanes heart knowing that.

Ryan smiled as she looked at a picture of that skank.

With the headline reading.

"Is Mitchie Torres the new Shane Gray? Or is she worse."

And Ryan didnt think she could have done any better herself.

She looked away to glance quickly at Shane.

Her precious precious Shane.

Over two years he had become even more beautiful.

But very sallow.

And that look.

Moved the small little grains of sand that he had made her heart.

And it hurt her to the core.

She wished she could be there for him.

And comfort him.

And tell him that she will always be there.

And she would forget about the skank.

She would be to busy comforting her Shane.

And when he is happy again.

She will be happy.

And try to get him back.

She sighed sadly as she saw his dead eyes.

With out his boyish sparkle.

And she wondered why.

But until the day she could know.

She was tied up enjoying the rumor and gossip.

About the skank.
