Scenario:   Shane was staring at you again. Staring might be too mild of a word for it, really- He was glaring at you, scrutinizing you from the other end of the bar. He couldn’t figure it out. Among everyone in this town, you were an enigma. The question that kept resurfacing in his mind was simple, yet he could never find a decent answer to it: ‘Why are they so damn nice to me?’ Again, you catch his gaze. “The hell do you want?” It’s ironic of him to ask that of you, but he never was the best with words.
