The next morning

I woke up to a stinging pain in my left cheek and that's when I remebered that Shane punched me. I quickly went to the mirror and I saw that I had a massive bruise on my cheek and the bruise looked a sickenly blue/purple/green/yellow colour. I go to grab a shower and change then went downstaris to the kitchen where Micheal and Eve was and susprinsigly Shane. Eve was getting the plates down to serve up breakfest when she notices, my bruise and when she did the plates smashed to ground as Eve let them go and put her hands to cover her mouth.

"Your...your cheek Claire that massive bruise oh god" she sounded like she was about to faint.

Micheal turns around to Claire and his mouth dropped open wide, Shane glances up quickly but I turn away from because I have no desire to see him.

"It's ok" I quickly say and run out of the kitchen and into my room and start to cry helplessly and thought I knew he was agitated but why punch me?, I did'nt do anything. I hear loud and vicious arguing downstairs.

"Did you see what you did Shane?" that was unmistakbly Micheal's voice

I hear heavey, clumpy boots coming up the stairs and run down the hall to my room and knocked quietly.

"Claire?...Claire sweetie open up it's Eve no one else"

I go and open the door and invited Eve in.

"Oh god sweetie i'm so sorry"

"not your fault Eve"

"Micheal is kicking Shane ass downstairs after he saw the bruise on your cheek. Oh god like seriously I was so shocked when he punched you last night and Micheal was about to tear him apart after that."

"When...When did Shane come back?"

"He came back just after you went to bed"

"Where was he last night? you know after he-..."

"He went to that damn gym again. I mean it Claire there's something up with Shane cause we all know that was no where near Shane last night"

I nodded in response. That's when I heard two more set's of feet running up the stairs and pounding on the door. I knew it was Shane but I really did not want to talk to him.

"Eve...Eve I want to speak with Claire a minute" Shane said

"there's no way in hell i'm leaving you alone with her after last night"

"Eve please"

"no"

Then I said "Eve he's right we do need to talk but you can stand outside and I will shout if I need help ok?"

"you sure?"
"yes i'm sure"

"alright" Eve said with a sigh and opened the door gave shane a hard long glare and shut the door and stood outside.

I still could not face him.

"Claire i'm...i'm...-..."

"your what "sorry" incase you hadn't notice you punched me"

"I know"

there was a moment of slience

"Is that all your going to say"

"Well...what do you want me to sat?"

"are you really that stupid...I don't know you wanted to talk to me."

"Can we please get passed this and try to sort out our realtionship?"

"get passed it?...get passed it! how the hell do we get passed it your the one who punched me!"

"So are you saying you don't love me anymore"

"No...I still love you and always will I just can't put aside the fact that you punched me just like that ok"

"ok, but could we at least try to put our realtionship right again please"

"I don't know Shane"

"Please"
