Shane

Shane is a minor character in the Home Sweet Home series. A young schoolboy, he is the subject of interest for Belle.

Overview
Little is known about Shane other than he was a student who Belle developed a massive crush on. A fairly tall boy with dark hair in a typical school uniform, he seems to also have had other girls interested in him, but they may have only existed in Belle's unstable mind as imagined obstacles for his affection.

Story
For some time Belle strove for his attention but was unsuccessful. As she was seemingly mentally unstable, this crush became an unhealthy obsession and she would accept no obstacle between them. Thus she tried using magic to bring them together, stealing some fingernail clippings and hair samples from him for use in casting a Lechery Jinx on him. As she was a novice in such things, however, it backfired; she became sick and died. Worse yet, the Jinx was successfully cast on Shane, but the jinx's nature did not really cause love for the caster but an unnatural obsession. Shane, unable to be with Belle in life, hung himself after writing a note to his loved ones.

His body was later discovered on the school grounds, but was hushed up by the administrators to avoid gossip and panic. His body also appeared in the darkened, abandoned school which Belle's spirit haunted; when her ghost found it, she fell to her knees and sobbed uncontrollably, finally aware of what she had done.
