Changing Me

A car ride to no where

**recap**

Andrews mom found out they got engaged so they had to tell Shannon.

She didn'take it that well....

**present**

**CeCe's POV**

yesterday I told Shannon that Andrew and I are engaged. She didn't really rake it to well. cause she walked out of the room when I told her.

Andrew said that all I needed to do was give her some space and some time to clear her head. but thats kind of hard when she has a custody battle being settled today and I sprung that on her.

so I decided to stay with Andrew for a while.

Today I went shopping with Andrew's Mom and got a wedding dress. Because Shannon and I werent really speaking Me and Mariam argued over me wanting to pay.... She won.

I went to visit Shannon after I dropped Mariam off at her house. 

I walked into Shannon sitting in

the middle of the living room floor. she was looking at pictures of lilian. she started to get and then I heard her mutter "I will see you again."

I ran to lilians room and it was empty.

all of the furniture

was missing. the walls were blank. I cant even imagine what Shannon is feeling. she lose one if her daughters to her ex husband. to Derek.

so after the court date for the custody of lilian was some and over with Derek moved to England with lilian. Shannon needed someone to be with her so I decided to move back in the house with her.  I walked in carrying boxes and she was no where to be found.  I took my boxes of clothes to my old room.  I saw Lilians old door open down the hall. 

I walked into the room.  It was empty everything that she had was moved to England with Derek.  The walls that used to be hung full of pictures but now that she is gone they are blank and empty.

Shannon was sitting in the middle of the floor surrounded by pictures of Lilian.  She was just staring at them.  I sat down in the floor with her.  She began to talk.  She said " I tried so hard to be the best mom I really did but no matter what he won."  I looked at her and said "I know you did she knows how much you love her there wasn't a day that went by that she didn't know that." 

We sat there for what seems like hours.  Just staring at the blank walls that used to be full.  Thinking...

*** weeks later***

It has been the same thing over and over again.  Just sitting in the room staring at the pictures of her.  Shannon is starting to scare me because she hasn't been able to eat or drink anything.

I decided to go out and get some coffee and some bagels.  There is a little coffee shop just around the corner. I walked there but as I walked up to the shop I saw a guy who I have seen a lot more than I should.

I ordered my favorite mocha and a blueberry bagel and sat at one of the vacant tables outside. After a little bit the guy came over and sat down in the empty chair across from me.  He said that he has seen me a lot lately. And that he noticed that I had walked he offered me a ride home and said that I couldn't refuse.  I felt something touch my leg. I looked under the table and saw a gun pressed against my leg.
