   Summary

   "You are so brave and quiet I forget you are suffering." -Ernest Hemingway

   Penny is the town's only teacher, struggling to make enough to support herself, her household, and her mother Pam, the town drunk's, drinking habit.

   Shane is running Pam a close second, but trying to push himself to put in an effort for his goddaughter.

   Both are looking to be understood, but they could never see eye to eye. Shane dulls his pain with alcohol, while Penny despises it, seeing it as the center of her pain. It would never work, right?

   I just thought this world might need a little bit of Shane/Penny, hope you enjoy!
