Her commitment

Chapter 13

Shawn's POV
I can't believe them. I was just as much to blame as Samantha was.

My agent started pulling me towards the door when I stopped dead in my tracks.
"Shawn?," My agent cooed. I pulled my hand out of hers and walked over to Samantha.

Lacing my hand with hers. Samantha opened her mouth about to say something but I put my hand up to stop her.
"Look. I'm just as responsible for this as Samantha is. If you take the charges off me, you take the charges off Samantha," I spoke. Chase rolled his eyes.

I forgot he was here. Samantha looked up at me and smiled in gratitude before slipping her hand out of mine and turning her gaze to Chase.
"I'll accept the charges. I just want Chase over here," She said gesturing to Chase.
"To know he got what he deserved," She continued. She walked over to the police.

They looked at her and sighed.
"We're not pressing charges Mrs. Manson," The cop on her right spoke.
"Yeah, your father would could kill us," The cop on the left spoke. Her father?
Samantha's POV
My father?
"You know my father?," I asked the cops.
"Well sure! He's one of the richest men in the world!," The cop on the left responded.
"Wait, wait, wait," Chase stepped in. I rolled my eyes.
"You're rich?," He asked.
"Was," I corrected.
"Chase can you just leave. Shawn and Samantha aren't getting arrested and you're not getting money out of Samantha. You know your way out," Cassie spoke. Chase glared at her before stomping towards the door.

Good job Cassie.
"Well, Shawn. We should get going," His agent stated.
"I guess so...Cassie...Thank you for letting me stay here. I'll probably give you some money for the time I spent here," Shawn went on. Cassie shook her head.
"Don't bother. Can I ask a favour though?," She questioned. Shawn nodded.
"Well... it's been my life long goal to get a hug from you so..." Shawn nodded and opened his arms out wide. I smiled as I eyed Cassie for her reaction.

She squealed and ran into Shawn. He wrapped his arms around Cassie and let go seconds later.

Cassie still held on a little longer than let go. Shawn looked at me than walked over to where I was standing and took my hands in his.

I smiled faintly.
"Look, I know we got off on the wrong foot. We haven't been the best of friends but I believe over the time spent with you and Cassie I bonded well with you."
"I believe that too," I spoke and looked up at him. He smiled at me.
"Ummm... I guess this is good bye?," Shawn questioned. I shook my head and smiled.
"For now... yes...good bye, Shawn," I said and kissed his cheek. Before he could respond to what I just did, his agent grabbed his arm and pulled him out the front door.

Well, I guess life is back to normal now. Or so I thought.
