"Are you kidding?" Hailey gasped. "She'll absolutely love it!" Shawn smiled as he pocketed Coppélia's gift. He had met up with Hailey before seeing Coppélia to make sure the gifts he wanted to give his girlfriend were good enough.
"Thanks again for meeting up with me, Hailey." He said with a small smile. "I just want to make sure this is perfect for her."
"And it will be." She assured him. "You being there with her will be more than enough." Before he could respond, both their phones chimed. They checked and their eyes widened at the article and pictures. Hailey put a hand over her mouth in shock. "Holy shit."
Shawn didn't respond. He immediately dialed Coppélia's number and tapped a nervous beat against his phone case as it rang. "Come on, doll face." He muttered quietly. "Pick up." Hailey rubbed his shoulder comfortingly. "Goddammit!" He pulled the phone away from his ear and ran a hand through his hair. "Voicemail." He looked down the street and back at the article. It was only a few blocks to the studio. He turned to Hailey. "I got to go."
She nodded and without another word, he turned and started to rush down the sidewalk. "Tell her I'm sorry about this!" She called to him before he disappeared into the crowd. She said a silent prayer that this would work out for the two.

Amanda paced the lobby, running a hand through her hair as music continued to sound from the locked studio. She had lost track of how long Coppélia had been in there but she was increasingly worried over the fact that the human doll was barefoot which increased the likelihood of damage to her feet. MJ was currently watching over the door in case of emergency.
She jumped when the door slammed open and Shawn ran in. "What the actual fuck?" She all but shouted. His breathing was heavy as if he... "Did you run here??"
Shawn nodded. "I saw the article about me and Hailey." He said between breaths. "I was in Central Park with her and... nothing happened I swear."
"I know." He looked up at her shocked. "You wouldn't have run through New York if something had happened."
He smiled thankfully. Hopefully, Coppélia knew that as well. MJ suddenly ran into the lobby. "We have a problem." She said. Shawn and Amanda both looked to her worried. "Lia's feet have started bleeding." The two felt sick at the damage Coppélia was doing to herself.
Amanda looked up in fear when the song changed in the studio to an all too familiar guitar intro. "No." She breathed. She rushed to the door with Shawn on her heels. Coppélia stood frozen staring at the mirror. Her breathing was heavy and her toes were coated in blood. Then the lyrics started,
I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone
Coppélia let out an almost feral scream and swung a punch at the mirror. The glass shattered around her and blood streamed down her fist. Amanda started pounding on the door for her to let them in but it was as if she didn't hear them, punching the mirror again as the song went on.
MJ turned to Shawn. "You got a credit or debit card of any kind?" He raised an eyebrow but frantically handed over one of his cards. MJ went to the door and started picking the lock with the card.
The door swung open just as Coppélia sent a third punch into the mirror. Shawn rushed in and grabbed her, pulling her away from the mirror so she wouldn't hurt herself anymore. Tears streamed down her face as she thrashed in his grip, slowly losing consciousness. Amanda ran in and wrapped a towel around her bleeding fist, fighting back tears herself. Shawn felt tears fall from his own eyes and he tightened his grip on her.
MJ called 911 and Shawn just kept whispering, "You're gonna be okay. I love you, doll face. You're gonna be okay." over and over into Coppélia's ear. She slowly fell limp as they heard the sirens coming closer against the backdrop of Billie Joe Armstrong's voice,
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Til then I walk alone
