[/size][/blockquote]"I'm relaxed." Shay said softly, wrapping her arms tighter around Connor's waist. She just wanted to be closer to him right now. As close as was humanly possible. Right now, she couldn't get close enough. Sighing, Shay settled with pressing her ear to his chest, listening to the slow and steady beat of his heart against his ribcage. That was what calmed her down most. The heart beat was reassuring - Connor wasn't broken, he was working just fine. Everything was a-okay. Shay would have been content to stand like this all night, tangled up with her love.
Shay looked up as he began to speak, chewing on her bottom lip nervously. She didn't think it was a good idea to let this subject lay - it was pretty damn important, after all, but she would. Simply because Connor didn't want to talk about it. And Shay would literally to do anything for the boy standing in front of her. "Okay, it's forgotten." She said quietly. Now she felt like she had to share something with Connor. But what? She had nothing of that caliber. "Do you want to know why I asked my parents if I could go to boarding school?" Because, yes, it had been her idea to come to Stewart. "I wanted to get away from my parents. They haven't loved each other for a really long time, but they just... won't get a divorce. And they always put me in the middle of their fights. Like I was supposed to pick a side between my mom and dad. And I got sick of it. So I pitted them against each other to get my way and get away."
Biting her lip, Shay looked up at Connor. "I just wanted to share that with you. 'Cause it kind of fucked me up, you know?" She said quietly, hoping he would understand what she was trying to do.
