A/N: This is just a short fic I thought up. It takes place the night of the Morp.
Scott has just came back and has just told Shelby he loves her. This is what might have been running through Shelby's head at that moment...

Disclaimer: I do not own Scott, Shelby, Higher Ground, or this poem. The
poem belongs to "unicraze" and you can read some of her work at the poetry section on fanfiction.net


I Love You Too



Shelby stared at Scott. Her heart was beating rapidly and it took all she could do to contain her excitement. He had told her he loved her, no guy had ever told her that before, not ever. She didn't know what to do. He had come back for her, she honestly couldn't believe it. All the pain him leaving had caused her was released and all the joy him coming back was causing her was hard to explain. How was she supposed to respond to such joy? What was she supposed to say? She had never experienced if before...



Wait.
Stop.
Something you said-
It wasn't what you meant to say.
You let it slip
Now you're turning away.
Wait!
Don't go.
I liked it-
That thing you just said
The thought you tried to hide
That came right out instead.
Wait-
Stay here.
Something I did-
It wasn't what I meant to do.
I said, 'Wait. Stay here.'
I meant, 'I love you, too.'



Shelby smiled at him, deep inside jumping for joy

Shelby: I love you too
