Shane knew that Sissy hate to stand by and do nothing. The bedroom was just as important as the kitchen to get ready. Both were pretty essential rooms of living. Shane smiled at his wife and returned her kiss.<br/><br/>"Sounds good."<br/><br/>He told her and helped the movers bring the rest in. Some things could wait until tomorrow or the next day to put away. After everything was brought inside and Shane paid the movers, he went to help Sissy in the bedroom. He didn't have as high of hopes that he'd have normal nights of sleep in this house. He had not had a normal night of sleep in over two years. He was almost used to it now. Waking up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat was just part of life for him now. He just didn't like waking up Sissy because of it.<br/><br/>Shane was glad that it didn't take him long to find his running shoes and shorts in the boxes. He liked to run before going to bed at night. Running helped him feel more exhausted and at least he fell asleep easier. Not that he could sleep more then two or three hours at a time before waking up. He lived off of naps.<br/><br/>Shane had thought of going running but realized he was hungry and the move was tiring. Tomorrow, he'd start running again. After sharing a delicious meal and taking a shower with Sissy, Shane headed to bed. He was shocked when he didn't wake up until the sun hit him in the face. He looked at the alarm clock in surprise. He had actually slept through the whole night! He told himself it was just a fluke, though. He had been just super tired from the move and soon his lack of sleep routine would return.<br/><br/>So, when the next few nights were the same, Shane was shocked. Perhaps, Sissy was right. The house was having a good effect him on. That the future they would create here was helping him. Well, he wasn't going to complain about it. It was amazing to actually have full nights of sleep again.<br/><br/>Shane thought that since the yard was so large, they could have a garden and still have plenty of room for entertaining and future kids to play. He was working on that when his mother called.<br/><br/>"Okay, I'll be right there!"<br/><br/>Shane called back to Sissy. He wiped his hands on his jeans as he headed inside. He gave Sissy a kiss on her cheek as he took the phone from her.<br/><br/>"Hey, Mom."<br/><br/>He said, asking her what was going on. He frowned when she replied she had bad news.<br/><br/>"Oh, no...Do they know how?"<br/><br/>He asked, when his mother told him that Walter Simcox, Diane's father, had died. He listened to his mother and got a piece of paper and a pen to write down the time and place of the funeral.<br/><br/>"Poor Barbara...Yeah, I'll be there. Thanks for letting me know. Love you too, bye."<br/><br/>He told his mother and hung up the phone. He turned to Sissy and told her.<br/><br/>"Walter, Diane's dad, died in a car accident. His funeral's tomorrow. I'm going to go. He and Barbara, Diane's mom, were always nice to me."<br/><br/>Diane's parents always seemed to like him. Treated him like a son. Both had been confused when Diane had suddenly dumped him for Martin Hayes. Although neither understood that she had done it to have the money and make sure Walter's debts were paid. They just thought that before the marriage Rich had just paid her really well that she could share the wealth. And that afterwards, Martin had insisted on treating them well by helping with bills. After all, the actor was good at pretending he was a super nice guy.<br/><br/>"I feel really awful for Barbara. Diane was her only kid and now she lost her husband too. Sissy, if you want, you can come with me."<br/><br/>He knew Sissy didn't know Barbara Simcox or she might not be comfortable with going to the funeral, but Shane wouldn't have mind her presence there. But he wanted it to be her choice.
