Hi all thanks to those who decided to follow and favorite this. Reviews are also loved but to me if I just know a few are reading I'm happy.

This is Shassie but its not slashy. (Like you didn't giggle at the rhyme) I just wanted to write about Shawn and Carlton's strange relationship. This is early on in the show but more like season 3 I guess.

A week soon passed but Shawn remained in a state of comatose. His parents, Gus, Juliet and even the chief visited him but no one could stir the unconscious man.

When the week ended and they were kicked out, Juliet followed Gus to his car.

"That damn bastard, why doesn't he get it?" Gus mumbled.

"Carlton just doesn't seem to like people. I think he's too afraid to get close to anyone" Juliet answered and Gus turned.

"That's stupid Juliet. Shawn may be an annoying idiot at times but he is a very kind and generous guy. I know the only reason he hasn't awoken is because he hasn't heard Lassie reach out for him" Gus replied.

"Don't confront him again Gus. It'll only make it worse"

"I gave him a week to visit Juliet. I won't let that bastard hurt Shawn any more. Shawn doesn't deserve that, not after all he's done for detective dipstick" Gus replied and got into his car and drove away.

Juliet gave a small sigh and walked away to her car. She got to the precinct in time to see Gus yelling at Lassiter.

"Why can't you just swallow your damn pride and see Shawn? You know he's a good man Lassie" Gus spoke it softly but Juliet could see he was beyond pissed off.

"Fine, I'll go, but only to prove I can't wake the idiot any more than you all can" Lassiter responded.

"And if you do and I was right?" Gus challenged.

"I will not be mean to Shawn for the case I get stuck working with the fake idiot" Lassiter grumbled.

"You're all heart Lassiter" Gus says and walks away to Juliet.

"But if you're wrong Guster, when the sleeping idiot decides to awaken he can't come by and annoy me at all on the next case" Lassiter calls out to him and Gus turns and gives a nod.

"A bet Gus? That was your big idea?" she asks with an astonished look and he only shrugs.

"I think you're right about him Juliet. Maybe its time to fix that and I think Shawn genuinely respects and looks up to Lassie, I am positive he'll awaken when he hears Lassiter speak" Gus said confidently.

"And if he doesn't?" Juliet asks but Gus doesn't answer and instead walks away.
