Helena looked up. "He will get justice gerard."

"Yeah right" said Gerard "Sorry SAhayne but you're going nowhere, even Josh managed higher marks than you"

Shayne ssat down and looked at the floor, starting to cry again.

Helena stood up angrily.

charlie restrained her. "Gerard, Fuck off!" said Charlie angrily, anger and hatred towards him he had never seen. "Frank, calm helena down."

Gerard shut up and raised his hands walking out.

Frank hugged Helena "Shh there"

Shayne buried his face in his hands.

"You will get your justice shayne. Helena always follows through with her promises."

Helena couldnt help but bury her face in Franks chest, wrapping her arms round Franks waist

"And Gerards always fuking right about these things" Shayne managed miserably "It's not fair Charlie, you guys only know half of what happened and een you know that"

"I know hun, but gerards a bastard, so he doesnt count. Helena sticks to the truth as much as she can, she will get you your justice."

Helena winced and hugged frank tigter

Frank held her, lvin having her soclose.

"Thats a good thing shayne. You didnt kill those people. Your a true person. I know loads of people who have killed, and there not human. there...monsters." said Charlie some self loathing behind tehre

"Frank whinced "Sometimes people have no choice" he tried to defend, almot like Charlie had said it to him directly.

Shayne put his head in his hands.

Ray was stoo by the phone. he appeared frozen in teh position, stood exactly the way he had been when he had heard teh message

Shayne walked over and ugged him, burying his face in Raays chest "I'm sorry"

"Did you shoot them?" asked Ray, his vioce dry. He didnt move an inch

Shayne shook his head "I couldn't do it,I didn't have the guts"

Ray hugged him tightly, tears running down his face. "Thank god. Oh my god, thank you."

SHayne sobbed into his chest.

Ray pulled shayne into teh bedroom and lay down on teh bed, hugging him to his chets. "I stood there for two hours."

SHaynecurled up and cuddled up to Ray "I'm useless"

"No your not. Your teh most useful thong in the world."

"I;''m not, I should have been ale to pull te tier, I got to the fucking gates Ray-"

"NO! Your not killer Shayne! and if you think your worthless cos you couldnt kill a bunch of kids then you really are stupid." said Ray angrily. "My Shayne would never have killed any one. Which is why i know its you, cos you didnt pull the trigger."
