Chapter 42:

(Aly's POV)

"Babe, have you seen what there saying about Gracie?" I yelled from upstairs while Shawn was in the kitchen making breakfast.

"No, why?" He yelled back and that's when I decided to go downstairs to show him. "Is she around?" I asked. "No she's still asleep, what is it?" He asked.

I showed him what some of his "fans" and news stands were staying about Gracie. "She is not a PR Stunt!" Shawn yelled "and for one she is not a bitch!" Shawn yelled and that's when he punched the wall.

"Mommy, what's wrong? Why is daddy mad?" Gracie said coming downstairs from all the noise Shawn had made. And I wouldn't blame her for being scared I am too, I've never seen him this mad.

"Princess, go into mommy and daddy's room and I'll be up in a few." I whispered into her ear. As I saw Shawn put his face in his hands.

"Baby, are you okay?" I said cautiously laying my hand on his shoulder. "I am," I heard him mumble. "It's just that I hate that my fans and some of the people that do the news are saying so many bad things about Gracie. She doesn't deserve that she's barely 6 and is battling something really to--tough." He said after that he broke down in my arms.

"I know, I know, it pains me to knowing that their saying all of that stuff. But we have to not let Gracie see us like this. Shawn she was scared when she came down." I whispered the last part.

"She was scared of you." I said.

"She was scared of me?" Shawn asked.

(Shawn's POV)

And with that I ran downstairs to go see my princess. I didn't mean to scare her that bad or make that much noise wasn't intended I just got so mad.

"Gracie?" I said walking into mine and Aly's bedroom. "I'm so sorry for scaring you, princess." I tried to explain.

"Why were you mad, daddy?" She hiccuped between the tears. "We're you mad at mommy?" She continued. "No, I wasn't mad at mommy. I was mad at some other adults that were saying stuff about you, baby." I tried to explain to a six year old without going into much detail.

"I love you daddy," Gracie said.

"I love you, too." I said.

"Get some rest, baby." I said tucking her in and kissing her forehead. I slowly closed the door to our bedroom and headed back into the kitchen. I didn't find Aly in there so I went into the living room and that's where she was.

"Was she okay?" Aly asked.

"She was, how are you?" I said.

"I don't want her to go through this at this ago, Shawn." Aly said.

"Me neither, babe." I replied.

"What are we going to do?" She asked.

"I'm gonna talk to management tomorrow and make them clear things up. We should take her somewhere tomorrow before her Chemo on Thursday." I suggested.

"We should, where should we go?" She said.

"Waterpark?" I suggested.

"That's a great idea!" She said.

"It is getting pretty hot out." I continued.

"It really is." She replied.
