You bleed you learn
You scream you learn
Sobbing until she couldn’t take it any more, Carmen flung her arms around Shane and pulled her into a tight embrace. Their shoulders were soon soaked with the wetness of one anothers tears, and neither of them showed any sign of stopping crying.
Wear it out like a three-year-old would do
Melt it down, you’re gonna have to eventually anyway
The fire trucks are coming up around the bend
Shane’s head was racing. She knew how impulsive Carmen was, and so had no idea what this embrace meant. Not being stupid, she knew it didn’t mean she was forgiven. But could it possibly be the first step towards reconciliation? Or was Carmen just needing someone to cling to, and she happened to be the only one there? Praying that the first option was true, Shane just resolved to hold Carmen tight for as long as she needed, and deal with the rest later.
Carmen herself had no idea what she was feeling. All she knew was that in that moment all she needed was Shane. No matter how much she’d hurt her, she was the only one who could make the pain go away. And it killed her that the cause of her pain was the one embracing her, and that for the first time since that day she felt alive. She wanted to scream and shout, but all she could do was cry and lean on Shane. How could she still love someone who hurt her that much? Because that’s you and Shane, she reasoned. You’ve both hurt each other. You’ve both fucked up in the past. Granted, Shane’s fucked up more than you, but you still hurt her. But look at you, you need each other. You don’t work like other people. You’re suited to each other.
You live you learn
You love you learn
You cry you learn
You lose you learn
You bleed you learn
You scream you learn
You grieve you learn
You choke you learn
You laugh you learn
You choose you learn
You pray you learn
You ask you learn
You live you learn
Lifting her head, Carmen placed one hand on either side of Shane’s face, and stared into her eyes.

I’m glad Shane and Carmen are taking things one step at a time . . . it’s so cute them just lying in each others arms, that’s so fuckin’ cute!! Wonderful job, please continue! Now if you will excuse me, I have to go buy some more tissue, lol . . . LYLAS
As much as I hate song fics, this is really good! Very emotional, and some of the better written stuff on this site.
good updateif shane says baby again i’ll scream
So much emotion. Your writing is great. I usually skip over Sharmen stuff in stories, but I love yours. I’m in physical pain for Bette. Tina… I don’t know. I want to see Bette move on, but somehow the Tibetter in my just can’t let go.
the songs are great, and i’m glad that at least carmen gives it another chance unlike tina and my heart is breaking for bette, i hope real tina will come back
These are very emotional chapters! Really well done. My heart breaks for Bette, and for Shane and Carmen. And, I am trying to feel heartache for Tina as well, but until I find out why she is being such a snake, I will wait! Thanks!!!
what’s up with tina 2.0? she’s a biatch! boo! much love for the sharmen and let’s all pray tina 2.0 gets an upgrade…
Holy shit you just made me cry! Glad everythings ok with shane and carmen, but poor Bette! My heart is breaking for her! anyway post as soon as you can! thanx
I think we will be looking a long time for the Tina we knew and loved. It just wasn’t Bette affair,it was a lot of thing. Henry will never be proud of Angie and will try to make Tina the same way, Ashamed of her mix heiratage Glad that Carmen is going to try to give Shane another chance. When Tina understands that one mistake does place you on the floor and for everyone to wipe their feet on.Then she might come back. Lets see if Bette get new bedroon furniture and redo the bed room. thanks
OK, not fair, you’re making me cry at work! Very nice chapter. Poor Bette. I’d like to slap Tina. Bette baby, you can over by me, I’ll make you feel better like Carmen is with Shane.
Aww so damn cute.I love the end. Shane and Cramen just lying in each others arms!!! Great job!!!
Hey there BealsBaby, You are certainly post them fast and loose. And want fabulous chapters they are. It is heartbreaking to see Bette and Tina at each other’s throats as Shane and Carmen slowly and delicately move back into each other’s arms. This was a piece of poetry as the mistakes of the past were dealt with and a new brighter day began. If only Bette and Tina could recapture some of their past desire and understanding. Either that or a 2 x 4 smacked on their heads. Oh what will tomorrow bring. Please post more so I can dive into your wonderful waters and enjoy your wicked words washing over me. More please, real soon. Your Loyal Fan.
