I'm a little late in joining the Pro-Shelle thread (44 pages late), but here I am... anyway, my thoughts are that the last time Shawn's life fell apart, he hooked up with Mimi, so him hooking up with a hooker now isn't that much of a surprise.... ok, that was mean, but I am very mad at Mimi..... anyway, this is typical Shawn, he gets himself all worked up and goes into self-destruct mode, but have no fear, Belle will save him! And in time they will find their way back to each other... just jumping into each others arms immediately after the past couple of years crap wouldn't be satisfying to me, or realistic, they need to gradually rebuild their relationship, and their love. Just my two cents.
Just a side note, I still am totally opposed to Shawn shaggin' the hooker, but oh well, what can we do? Belle just better make sure Shawn has all his tests before they finally get together, after Jan, Mimi, and Willow, he will need a LOT of testing first!
