bChapter 1/centeR/bbr
br
The Cliffhangers were enjoying the nice, surprizingly warm day at Horizon. Homework wasn't great but
being outside and having the sun's warm rays hit their backs made the work more bareable. "This is
such a beautiful day!" Juliette squeaked happily looking up from her work. Auggie looked at her and
smiled. "Yes it is." Juliette blushed. "Right Queenie, you think everyday is a, quote unqoute, good day."
Shelby smirked. Scott looked up at Shelby from his homework. "Shel, lay off." Scott said and sighed.
"Whatever." Shelby said getting up, gathering her work. Scott got up and grabbed her wrist. "Don't."
Scott said his blue eyes softening. Shelby's face hardened. "Let go!" she pulled her wrist out of his
grasp quickly. "Looks like someone is having that wonderful time of the month." Daisy said dryly. "No,
Shelby has it the full month of every month." Juliette smirked. Shelby gave a death stare to Juliette
and walked off. Scott sat back down defeated. "What's up with all of that meat?" Auggie asked
amazed at Scott not running after Shelby. "Just forget it Auggie." Scott sighed and went back to
work.
brbr
A few minutes later Sophie walked up. "Cliffhangers lodge, now. Where's Shelby?" Sophie asked doing
a quick head count. "You mean Miss. Priss?" Juliette asked getting up. "She walked to the docks."
Daisy said before Sophie could say something to Juliette. Daisy walked to the lodge with David and
Ezra following. "Scott, go get Shelby, no activities." Sophie said and walked to the lodge with Auggie
and Juliette. Scott nodded and walked off to get his distressed friend.
brbr
Shelby had taken off her shoes and was kicking the water when Scott approached. Shelby heard him
and got up, putting her shoes back on. "Sophie wants us in the lodge." Scott said pointing his thumb
in the direction of the lodge. Shelby looked at Scott with a tear-stained face. "What's wrong?" asked
a dumbfoundedly concerned Scott. Shelby didn't say anything but walked up to him and kissed him.
Scott pulled back a littl, breaking the kiss. Shelby leaned back in not wanting to part. Scott was
confused but just kissed Shelby back. "Scott! Shelby! Break it up!" Sophie said walking down the dock
steps to see the two lip-locked. "Scott, I told you no other activties." Sophie said sternly placing her
hands on her hips. "Sorry." Scott said and the three walked back to the lodge.
brbr
Inside the lodge stood a dark black-haired, crystal-clear blue eyed girl. She was just a tad shorter
than Shelby and a bit skinner. "Now that everyone is here." Peter started giving a look to Scott and
Shelby who in turn both looked down. "This, everyone, is your newest member, Sara Sutton." Peter
said setting a hand on her shoulder. Sara brushed it off. "Welcome to our group of lost and screwed
up souls." Daisy welcomed dryly. "Daisy." Peter said sighing. "Just stating facts Peter." Daisy rolled
her eyes. "Anyways," Peter said letting Daisy's comments slide. "Where were you two?" Peter
addressed Scott and Shelby. "At the docks." Scott said getting bored. "Doing ..." Peter trailed and
Scott rolled his eyes. "Kissing, alright. We broke the rules." Scott said flinging his arms in the air.
Peter sighed. "Wood, Scott and Shelby you can take around Sara." Peter said and walked out. Scott
pulled Shelby aside. "Have lunch with me, we need to talk!" Scott said and Shelby nodded. Scott
walked out to the shed. Shelby looked at Daisy. "I'm finally guide worthy." Shelby smirked. "Aww,
now who'll complain with me about not being guide worthy?" Daisy asked pretending to be heart-broken.
"I'm sure Queenie would complain with you. Twenty-four seven Miss. Sunshine." Shelby smirked and
Daisy glared at her. "Like I'd live through that. Don't you have a newbie to give a tour to?" Daisy
asked and Shelby looked at Sara. "Yeah." Shelby said and walked out, Sara unsurely following.
brbr
Shelby walked over to the shed where Scott was chopping wood. He looked up and wiped the sweat off
his brow, breahing hard. "This is the shed, also known as the 'make-out' shed. Scott would know
about that, wouldn't you?" Shelby smiled at Scott who gave a half-smile looking away. He placed
another piece of wood on the stump and gave a force-full swing. "Naughty boy. That's why he's
chopping wood." Shelby said turning around away from the shed. "Let's press on, shall we?" Shelby
mocked. Scott gave a little laugh setting another piece of wood and chopping it in two.
brbr
Shelby walked Sara to the mess hall at lunch time. She showed Sara where they ate then moved to a
different table. Scott walked in a few minutes later and did his usual cut-in line. He saw Shelby and
walked over to her. "You wanted to talk?" Shelby asked when Scott sat down. Scott didn't say
anything but started to eat. "Well?" Shelby asked impaitantly. After a few minutes Scott finally
answered. "Would you like to, um well, go see a movie sometime?" Scott smiled. Shelby laughed but
played along. "Sure, what movie?" Shelby asked and took a bite of her food. Scott thought for a
second, "Everyday Life." Scott said and gave a small laugh. "I'd love too!" Shelby smiled at Scott.
"Great." Scott said. "You done?" Shelby said looking around and not seeing Peter in sight. "Shel, not
now. We have class soon." Scott said knowning what was on Shelby's mind. "Just a quick one?" Shelby
pleaded. Scott sighed, "After class I'll be yours the rest of the day. I'll do anything." Scott said
and Shelby's face fell a bit. "Really?" Shelby asked making sure. "Anything." Scott nodded smiling.
Peter walked up. "Class in three minutes. Hurry up." Peter said and Scott and Shelby finished.
"Before you guys go, Scott, your step-mom is coming for a visit on Friday and Shelby, Jess arrives at
five." Peter said and walked away. Shelby took Scott's hand and gave it a squeeze. "I'm sorry Scott."
Shelby said sadly. "I don't want to see her!" Scott said angerily. "Come on Cowboy, time for Bio."
Shelby said pulling him a bit. "What about my dad?" Scott asked Shelby gave up on the non-budging
Scott. "I don't know Scott." Shelby said and finally got Scott moving. They walked to class in silence.
brbr
After class Scott lead Shelby to the shed. "Where are you two going?" a curiously nosy Sara asked
catching them walking to the shed. "No where. Now shoo newbie, don't bother me." Shelby smirked.
Sara rolled her eyes and walked away. Shelby walked into the shed and Scott followed. "You didn't
have to be so mean." Scott said when he got inside the shed. Shelby smiled at him seductively. Scott
leaned against a shelf. Shelby walked over. "I'm sorry, I'll be nice now." Shelby said and placed a
hand on his cheek. Scott wrapped his arms around Shelby's slim figure. "Very nice." Shelby whispered
and kissed Scott passionately. Scott removed one hand from Shelby's waist and placed it gently on her
cheek. Shelby then remembered her sister. "Jess is coming soon." Shelby said breaking the kiss. Scott
was breathing heavily and leaned in. "We have a few hours." Scott said not knowing the time. Shelby
gave in and started kissing Scott back. Scott had left a few hickey's on Shelby's neck.
brbr
They had stopped kissing and started talking about how there was always a 'surprize' in their breakfast,
lunch, and dinner meal. Anything that didn't involve the past. "Shelby?" a girl's voice called out near
the shed. "Jess!" Shelby screamed recognizing the voice. She ran out of the shed, leaving Scott.
"Shelby!" Jess screamed seeing her sister. They hugged. "I've missed you so much!" Shelby said
joyfully. Scott smiled watching the two. "Mom and Walt are at the gazebo. They want to talk to you."
Jess said seeing Shelby's expression change fully. The once joyful eyes had sunken into the one's she
had aquired that night a few years ago. "Oh." Shelby said then turned to Scott. He saw her eyes.
"Want me to come?" Scott offered worriedly. Shelby nodded and held out her hand which Scott took
and squeezed it reassuringly. The trio proceeded to the gazebo.
brbr
Half-way there Jess spoke up. "Are you two going out?" she asked forwardly. "Um, Scott?" Shelby
asked a bit taken back. "Yes, we are." Scott said seeing Shelby's face brighten. "Shelby, hunny!"
Sharon cried runing up and embracing her daughter. "Mom." Shelby said lifelessly. She didn't respond
to her mom's hug and still held Scott's hand. Walt ambled up to give Shelby his hug. Shelby looked
down as Walt neared. Scott thought quickly and pulled Shelby to him. "Oh Shelby, I've missed you!"
Scott said and Shelby clinged to him. Walt gave a confused look to Sharon who shrugged. After a
beat, they broke. "Shelby's mom." Scott said holding out his hand. "And who might you be?" Sharon
asked shaking Scott's hand. "I'm the proud boyfriend of your daughter." Scott said giving a cheesy
smile. "Shelby?" Sharon asked raising an eyebrow at her daughter. She looked her daughter over then
noticed the hickeys. "What have you been doing?" Sharon asked surprized at the marks. Peter had
told her the rules. Shelby rolled her eyes and groaned. She realized what her mom had found. "So,
now you care?" Shelby asked angerily. "I've always cared!" Sharon protested. "Right. Like you cared
when I took to the streets." Shelby said rolling her eyes. "I brought you here!" Sharon countered.
Shelby turned her back. Peter walked up. "Something wrong here?" Peter asked looking at the group.
"No." Shelby said and walked away. Peter decided not to persue her. He looked at Walt and Sharon.
He sighed and walked back to his office. Jess wasn't sure if she should followed. Jess decided to stay
with her mom and step-dad. Scott gave a glare to Walt then walked off after Shelby.
brbr
"Wait up Shel." Scott said as Shelby approached the dock steps. She turned and looked at him. "Do
you wanna talk?" Scott asked not knowing about the Walt thing. "I just don't want to see Walt. I
wished he had died in the hospital! Is that what you wanted to talk about?" Shelby asked mad. Scott
looked down then back up at Shelby. "He hurt you didn't he?" Scott said hitting the nail on the head.
Shelby looked away and started walking down the steps. Scott reacted quickly and grabbed her by the
waist. "No more running Shel. No more avoidence." Scott said and Shelby glared at him. "Let me go!"
Shelby snapped and struggled to get out of Scott's grasp. "Hunny, we have to talk." Sharon said
walking up. "Why can't anyone just leave me alone?" Shelby shouted getting out of Scott's grasp. "
Shelby I care about you! Don't walk away." Scott said and ran his hand through his hair frustrated.
"But...If you need your time, take it." Scott said and walked off. Sharon looked at her daughter.
She didn't like Scott. "Shelby, I think you should come home. This place isn't helping you any."
Sharon conclueded after a few beats of silence. Shelby looked at her mom giving her the coldest glare.
"No mom!" Shelby said and forgot about the docks, walking away. Walt walked up as Shelby left.
"I'll see what's wrong." Walt said giving Sharon a small hug. Sharon nodded and walked back to the
car.
