Alex came home much later than usual, her latest project was kicking her butt and she had to put in extra hours at the office. She tiredly walked upstairs and leaned on the door to her daughter’s room as she watched her girlfriend read the little girl a bedtime story.
Sarah spotted Alex in the doorway and smiled brightly. “Lexy! I missed you,” she squealed as she opened her arms in invitation.
Mitchie turned and watched a grinning Alex approach the bed. Alex leaned down and kissed Sarah’s cheek before pecking Mitchie’s lips and resting her hands on her shoulders. “I missed you too sugar plum. I promise that as soon as I’m done with this project I will take you to Disneyland,” said Alex with a smile.
“Yay! Can we take Brad, Mrs. Cooper, Mr. Cooper, Christy and George?” asked Sarah with a hopeful smile.
“We can invite anyone you want princess. Your cousins Phil and Lil can go too,” promised Alex.
Mitchie smiled up at her girlfriend. She loved the way that Alex interacted with Sarah. She was the little girl’s mother in every sense of the word and it was as if Alex had always been a part of the little girl’s life. “Okay, sweetie, it’s time to go to sleep,” declared Mitchie as she kissed her daughter’s cheek. “Good night.”
Alex took the book from Mitchie’s hands and placed it in the bookshelf and went back to kiss Sarah’s forehead. “Good night baby,” she whispered softly and caressed the little girl’s hair as she drifted off to sleep. She took Mitchie’s hand and led her out to their own bedroom. She wanted nothing more than to cuddle into Mitchie’s warm body as she went to bed after a hard day at work.
Alex took a quick shower and dressed in her pajamas before joining her girlfriend in bed.
Mitchie set the book that she was reading on her nightstand and removed her glasses as she turned to face Alex with a grin. “Guess what Lexy? Shane is not going to fight us for Sarah’s custody. He came by today and said that all he wants is to be a part of her life, but that he wishes us all the happiness in the world. I told him that he can entertain Sarah Saturday morning while we set up for the party and then his parents and brothers can come to the party,” said Mitchie excitedly.
Alex looked at Mitchie as if she had grown two heads. “Please tell me that you’re joking,” she pleaded.
Mitchie looked at her with a confused expression. “No, I’m serious. I thought that you would be happy since we don’t have to go to court,” said Mitchie.
Alex jumped out of bed and glared at Mitchie. “Are you insane Michelle Torres? Of course he doesn’t want to go to court. Shane is not stupid. He knows that if he takes us to court he will lose especially since his own brothers are testifying against him. He is not responsible enough to take care of Sarah!” screamed Alex.
Mitchie got out of bed too and stared at her girlfriend. “He’s her father Lexy and has the right to be a part of her life. We both decided that it would be best to keep this out of court and for all of us to be friends. We have our daughter’s best interests at heart,” said Mitchie.
Alex teared up as she looked at Mitchie. “O I get it. I have no say in this right? She’s yours and Shane’s daughter,” said Alex softly as she headed towards her closet.
Mitchie’s eyes widened. “No Lexy, I didn’t mean it like that. She’s your daughter too, baby,” protested Mitchie as she watched Alex get dressed. “Alex where are you going?” questioned Mitchie as tears ran down her own face.
Alex faced her and wiped the tears from her eyes. “I’m going to the penthouse. I have a lot of thinking to do and I just don’t want to deal with you right now,” said Alex coldly as she left the room and Mitchie.

The week had moved incredibly slowly for both Mitchie and Alex especially since they were once again separated. Alex told Mitchie that her and her family would be there to celebrate Sarah’s birthday like they had previously agreed, but she was not moving back in. As far as Alex was concerned Mitchie treated her more like Sarah’s aunt than her mother. She didn’t have a say in decisions regarding the little girl. Nothing Mitchie could say would change her mind, since actions speak louder than words.
Finally Saturday rolled around and the Russo clan had all arrived to Alex’s penthouse, while Mitchie’s parents were at the mansion. The girls refused to talk about why they were having problems and promised to explain everything after Sarah’s party. Shane showed up bright and early to pick up Sarah.
“Hey, Mitch, is my princess ready?” questioned Shane with a big grin.
Mitchie nodded and handed Shane Sarah’s bag. “Here’s a change of clothes, her stuffed pig, Piggy Baby, and anything else that you can possibly need,” explained Mitchie as Connie appeared in the doorway with Sarah in her arms. She was not happy with Mitchie letting Sarah leave with Shane and suspected that was the reason that Alex was angry. Mitchie took Sarah and smiled at her daughter. “Sweetie, this is your daddy, Shane. You’re going to go spend the day with him, okay?” said Mitchie with a smile.
Sarah shook her head no and began to cry.
Shane took the little girl and tried to calm her down. “It’s okay princess, daddy is going to take you to the zoo. Doesn’t that sound like fun?” asked Shane in a soft voice.
Sarah calmed down and smiled at Shane shyly. Shane gave Mitchie ‘a thumbs’ up sign and headed out with Sarah. He placed her in the car seat that he had put in his new dodge challenger and drove out of the driveway carefully. Shane parked next to a house and grinned at his daughter. “I’ll be back in two seconds kid,” promised Shane. Shane went inside a well known celebrity drug house leaving his daughter alone in the car. A few hours later he walked out completely drunk and high off his ass. He made funny faces at his daughter and didn’t notice the police car that was watching from a distance away. They had noticed the little girl and were just about to rescue her when Shane had stepped out.
One of the officers attempted to approach the car, but Shane noticed and hightailed out of there. Soon he was involved in a high speed chase through Los Angeles’ busiest highways.
Meanwhile, Mitchie was starting to get worried. Shane was supposed to have been back an hour ago and he wasn’t picking up the phone. The party was due to start in another two hours.
Alex, Christy, George, and the Russos walked into the house and admired the circus decorations as they made their way out back to where Alex and Mitchie had hired a circus for Sarah’s party. Alex stayed behind and noticed Mitchie’s worried face. “What’s wrong Mitchie?” she asked softly. She was still hurt, but that didn’t mean that she wouldn’t worry about her girlfriend.
Mitchie looked up at Alex. “Shane should have been back an hour ago,” she confessed biting her bottom lip.
Alex walked towards her and embraced her. “I’m sure they’re fine,” Alex said softly as she rubbed her back comfortingly.
As Mitchie enjoyed the feeling of being in Alex’s arms, the rest of the guests began to arrive including the Coopers, the Greys, Casey and some friends of Sarah’s from the day care. Alex told them to head on back, while she and Mitchie remained inside looking at the clock and calling Shane over and over again.
Caitlyn ran into the house with Tess close behind. “Turn on the tv. Shane is in a high speed chase. Half of LAPD is after him and they say he has a little girl with him!” screamed Caitlyn.
Mitchie turned towards Alex with wide eyes as she shook her head in disbelief. “How could Shane do this?” she cried.
Alex turned on the tv and everyone gathered to watch the life footage as Mitchie and Alex cried while they embraced each other.
Once again, the story of the hour as we provide you with live coverage from the high speed chase that Connect3’s lead singer Shane Grey is involved in. He apparently has a little girl in the car with him. Sources tell us that the little girl is Shane’s four year old daughter, Sarah Torres with none other than Sunset Record’s newest artist, Mitchie Torres. Apparently the chase began when the cops noticed a little girl in a car unattended and as they prepared to rescue her, Shane walked out of a known drug house and got into the vehicle. The officers were unable to stop him and the chase began. I wonder if Mitchie is aware of what Shane is up to and isn’t Mitchie engaged to interior designer Alexandra Russo? Well I guess that’s beside the point right now.
Everyone watched the footage unable to believe that Shane would be so stupid. Suddenly, there was an image that would forever change their lives. Shane lost control of the car and crashed into the barrier causing the car to flip over.
Mitchie let out an agonizing scream as she dropped to her knees with Alex falling next to her.
* * * * *
Hours later they were all gathered in the waiting room of the emergency room. Shane had died on the scene, but Sarah was in critical condition, thanks to her car seat she hadn’t died like Shane. The Greys had apologized over and over again for their son’s behavior. Alex assured them that Shane’s actions were not their fault and that they were welcome to remain at the hospital to hear news of their granddaughter. Now the Russos, Torreses, Coopers, Gellars, Greys, and Christy were all awaiting news about the little girl that they all loved so much.
Alex and Mitchie were a wreck and nothing that their family said could make them feel better until they knew that their daughter would be okay.
Mitchie blamed herself. She should have listened to Alex and her mom when they told her that Shane was too irresponsible to care for a little girl. Now thanks to her stupidity and Shane’s ability to always convince her that he’s changed, her baby might never wake up.
“Miss Torres,” said the doctor as he walked out with a solemn face.
