TEN
The age he was when his mother died. It was a tragic affair, as anyone would assume, and it was a complete accident, a simple human error. She was on her way to pick Shane up from school when the car she was driving was struck in the side by a truck. She died on impact. The driver was horrified and actually killed himself a few weeks later because he couldn't live with the knowledge that he had killed someone and left their family heartbroken and missing that something. For months Shane was down in the dumps, he rarely left his room unless his father or older brother forced him to (bar dinner and bathroom visits). He had always been close to his mother and the loss took something from him, but after those few months passed he pushed through it. He walked out of his room and announced that he was okay, before returning and reading whatever book he was into at the time.
NINE
The number of kittens the family cat had when he was in his teens. Three of the died within the first week and then another two the following week. The rest survived and were given away to family and friends, bar one which Shane kept for the next six year until it was hit by a car and died. He lost a friend that day but he tried not to dwell on the loss, he had exams to focus on.
EIGHT
The amount of books that he finished within one week. He has always been a bit of a bookworm, reading was his first love. When he was younger it was rare to see him without a book, He started reading when he was eight as well, starting with Dr Seuss books and moving on from there. He has several favourite book series and authors but you won't catch him taking about them these days, he is far too invested in his work and his wife for such things. Unless you bring up the subject of course, then you should prepare for the long book talk that will more than likely she it's face.
SEVEN
The number of months he spent on holiday in America when he was nineteen. He came from a rich family and that rich family was able to fund a seven month holiday for him and his girlfriend at the time, who sadly broke up with him only weeks after they returned to London. He was an avid traveller back in the day, really he still would be if he wasn't so invested in his life in LA, with his job and his wife he doesn't do an awful lot. His time in America on that holiday was what caused him to move there five years later. This means that he has been living in the states for a good seven years now, going on his eighth.
SIX
The number of serious relationships he's had over the course of his life. Over the years he found it hard to find the right woman, he went from woman to woman in search but gave up after the fifth serious relationship. He soon discovered that most of the women that he found and seemed genuine and such only wanted the money, like the girl who left him after the American holiday. Now he has found one worth keeping and he couldn't be happier with her, he married her and there is no signs of this relationship going south.
FIVE
The number of times that he has seen his father since he moved state side. The two don't get along as much as they used to. The older man sees him moving so far away as him not wanting to see him any more and no matter how much Shane tells him that it's not true the older man refuses to believe him and shuns his youngest son. The man also feels the same about his daughter moving to the states, so it's not just Shane.
FOUR
The years that he has been living in LA. Also the number of years that he has known the woman that is now his wife. He met her in the same week that he moved to LA, before that he had lived in New York. They met in the park when her dog decided that he was a good target to knock over, welcoming him to LA with a good thud to the ground. She apologised and offered to give him a lift home, as he had walked to the park and during the fall had hurt his leg a little. They exchanged numbers and after a while began dating. He proposed roughly three years later.
THREE
The number of months it has been since his wife had a miscarriage. It was devastating, for both of them, he was so eager to be a father but he had that taken from him. They were lucky that they hadn't told anyone about the pregnancy, they were ready to but they were waiting for a dinner that they had planned to happen a week later. Her parents were going to be there and so was his younger sister, but they cancelled and were lied to, they were told that something had come up with Shane's work and he was unable to be present at the dinner. Devastation all around.
TWO
The number of siblings he has. One older brother and one younger sister. He loves them both dearly, though doesn't see them as much as he wishes he could. His sister lives in LA as well, but his brother still resides in London with his two kids and lazy wife, who Shane really doesn't like. Two is also the number of children he and his wife want.
ONE
The number of years he and his wife have been married. The pair were married in a beautiful outdoor ceremony in one of the parks of LA. Family and close friends were invited and it was a glorious thing, the best day of his life. Wait, wasn't it supposed to be like that for the wife? Oh well, he's allowed to have his moment too right. But really, the best day of his life and he had loved his life every since, everything about it, other than that nasty boss of his. But that's a story for another time.
