Everlasting Love
chapter 1 Three Months
In the middle of the day Scott is just now going to talk to Shelby about what he said to her last night that he loved her.
In her on little world Shelby was thinking of visiting her real dad in Santa Monica. She thought it over and told Peter she wanted to visit her father, but what she didn't know is that she would be gone for three whole months.
When Shelby finally found Scott at the dock she told him all about going to see her father and she thought it was only going to be a week but the thing was it was going to be three months not weeks. Scott said he was fine with the fact she was going to see her real father, but inside he wasn't about to let her go for three months, in fact he knew she was going to be gone for three months because he talked to Peter right before Shelby found him here. Peter told him her father sent him a special letter for Shelby to come and live with him but Peter said this would never happen because they hardly know each other and then said that somehow he would convince Shelby to go and visit her father but the fact that he hadn't told her it was going to be for three months he felt sort of mad at himself for lying.
Shelby:Scott I actually can't wait till I go see him, isn't that funny that I used to hate him?
Scott:I'm going to miss you, you know that right.
Shelby:Yeah I do and I will miss you to and I will write to you I promise.
She got up and left as quickly as possible, like she knew he was about to say he loved her again. Scott looked down and wondered what he did now.
The next day this good-looking man in a Jaguar drove up. Juliette said he was sent to heaven to be her night in shining armor but then Shelby came and stood by her and hearing every word she said Shelby responded and said yeah he was sent here to pick me up, he is my dad and he wasn't sent from heaven to get you he was sent from richpeopleville to get me. Juliette blushed and Scott came out and asked who the rich man was and Juliette said that is Shelby's dad. Scott was impressed.Just then a car drove up with a girl that kinda looked like Shelby.He whistled at her the new girl Erin when Shelby left.
Shelby got in the car thinking that Scott was mad at her for not letting him talk yesterday evening because he hadn't talked to her at all that day or said goodbye when she left.She was about to cry when she was finally at her dad's house in her room with the door locked just incase.But then all of the sudden she did and that was weird because she never cried liked this. The kind of crying she was doing was for a funeral when a very very very very very very close family member died but this crying she did lasted till the next mor ning. She woke up to that smell she used to smell when she was a little girl it smelled of orange juice and eggs and bacon with pancakes it was the best thing she had smelt in years.
Back at Horizon Jules was talking to Daisy about Erin the new girl.It was a very interesting discussion about why everybody hated her not that they didn't because they did and Scott hated her to she started insulting Shelby even though she only knew her for a half of a second and that obvisouly was normal for her because she was very stupid. Scott told Daisy to call Shelby because he wasn't about to when she was probably going to hang up on him which that was his own fault. He was thinking maybe he could ask Daisy to call her but he decided to wait till now which was a mistake because Daisy was in a very bad mood because she had work from math class and she had to get it done then and now because she wanted to meet David after class but now she can't.So when Scott went up to her she chewed him out. He finally got the point that god was sending him a message saying call her yourself and he wasn't glad he did.
Scott:Hi is Shelby there
Mr.Merrick:You must be Scott she told me about you and said you would probably call, hold on.
Shelby:Hey Scott so what was the deal you didn't say goodbye.
On the other side of the phone Scott smiled at hearing her sarcastic voice he absolutely loved it when she used that tone of voice.
Shelby:Scott hello Scott are you there
Scott:Oh sorry, I really need you here
Shelby:I don't want to be there with you though you didn't say goodbye why?
Scott:You are the one who didn't say goodbye to me is this how it's going to be now?
Shelby:I still don't hear an explanation.
Scott:I told y. . . .
Shelby had hung up the phone why did she do these kind of things anyway when she hung up on him he cursed out loud on assident.She must have been really mad at him who couldn't tell.
Shelby then went to the mall and bought a dress, it was dark blue and very short but it wasn't tight on her it was a sundress.She decided then she was going back to Horizon even though she was supposed to stay here and she was going to wear the dress she just bought there.
When she got home her father told her she was supposed to stay here three months she didn't scream or yell because her father was going to take her to Horizon like she had asked.
He told her she looked beautiful in her dress.He said goodbye when she got out of the car.
She walked up the path to Horizon and the first person she saw was Erin.
Erin:Hi there what are you doing back we all thought you were going to be gone for three months, by the way that dress is cool.
Shelby:Thanks, and I'm back because I got tired of staying there.
Erin:Scott is another emotional break down site so it would be good for you to go and talk to him.
Shelby:All I did was . . .
Erin:It's not about that it's about something deeper but he wouldn't tell us.
Shelby left to go and find Scott.She saw him all alone in the boy's dorm.He got up and hugged her tightly.She did the same.
Scott:My dad got back with her.
Shelby:OH my gosh, why would he do that he knows what she did to you.
Scott:Yeah he does but he doesn't care. He said he loved her for who she is and that since I don't like her when I get out of here I am going to go live with my mom and I will be closer to you.
Shelby:at least that part of it is good.
Scott:My mom wants me to come and live with her and . . .
Shelby:We are not going though this again I mean Scott you are not actually going to go are you?
Scott:You didn't listen to everything I told her about you she said she wants you to spend a couple a months, or the months that I'm there with her, I'll only be there 2 months and then I come back here and she said once she wants to meet you and she if likes you, you can come and stay with me the two months I'm there.
Shelby:O my gosh really for real I would love to do that.
They kissed passionately for a while after that.He told her his mom was going to come that same day.She was surprised.She expected to have a week to get ready and to prepare a speech to tell his mom about why he was at Horizon and that was going to be hard to do all into hours this was definitely a problem.
Shelby:Scott I have no time to prepare . . .
Scott:Calm down it will be ok go get packed.
They kissed another time and she left the room.She was so happy she could hardly wait to see Scotts mom. Then some women came down the hallway and asked her where Scott was.Shelby's eyes were glowing with happiness.
Shelby:Hi I'm Shelby you must be Ms.Barringer, nice to meet you.
SM\SCOTT'SMOM:Hi Shelby it's very nice to meet you I HOPE YOU WILL COME BACK WITH US.
Shelby:Oh I would deffinetly come back with you.
Scott's mom walks down the hallway toward Scotts Dorm and slowly walks in and Scott doesn't notice her till he turns around and when he saw her was did you meet Shelby and she told Him how nice she was and how big her eyes were when Shelby saw and they talked about Shelby. Chapter 2-Crazy for this Girl , Crazy for this boy.
Scott was so glad to get out of his mom's jeep. It was smothering him how his mom and Shelby were talking about him.He had never seen this side of Shelby before.He assidently tripped and fell right on his face.Shelby helped him up and as she grabbed his hand and their hands touched he thought that he was so crazy for this girl, and he was and he will always be.He had a feeling that him and her were going to last forever.Something inside of him pushed her away and she had that look on her face when he did.
Shelby:Why did you do that?
Scott:Stay away from me Shelby!
His mother heard or saw none of this because she was getting ready to go out to dinner.
Shelby:What! We are going to be here for a long time and you want me to stay away from you.
Scott:Exactly.
Shelby:I was just trying to help you up that's all.
Scott:I don't care.
At that he got up and walked inside.She stood there not knowing what to do.She went inside and Susan Scott's mom showed her where she would stay.Her room was right next to Scott's and the bathroom connected the two rooms because the only way Shelby could get into her room was going through Scott's and then go in the bathroom and come out the other door.When Susan told Shelby where her room was Shelby was mad because she didn't want to see Scott. When she walked in Scott's room Scott just glared at her and didn't say anything.She wanted to slap him but Peter would say that would be the wrong thing to do.
After they came from dinner Shelby and Scott took a shower. In separate showers.Scott got out of the shower first and went straight to bed but he didn't go to sleep. When Shelby came in his room his mom told her to shut the door and she did.Scott was pretending to be asleep but Shelby didn't notice.He watched everything she did.She looked at all his pictures.Then when she was done she went by his bed and sat on the side of his bed and kissed his lips gently and told him while he was asleep so he wouldn't know what she said in the morning.She again gently kissed him except this time on his forehead and whispered in his ear.I LOVE YOU.He was still awake and when she went in the bathroom to get to her room he smiled at the exact time she smiled.Quietly to himself he said I LOVE YOU TOO. She heard this and said back I know you told me before.She had the biggest smile on her face when he said that back.She felt like that she never wanted to go back to Horizon.She felt like now and the rest of her life she wanted to spend it with him and him only she was crazy for him and she would tell him anything if he asked at that point.She never thought that he heard her and now she is glad he did and she could never regret it what he heard that night. She decided right then she would tell him that every night and do the same thing.She plopped down on her bed and thought I'm really crazy.Crazy for him.
Chapter3-What If Doesn't exsist anymore
one month after the last chapter.
Scott and Shelby didn't really talk since that night. Shelby wondered what she had done to make him so mad because she tried to talk to him but he tried even harder to avoid her.Shelby wondered why?
Scott was watching Shelby very closley this past month.After Shelby told him she loved him Shelby wanted to talk more about him and now he was scared to talk even though he has nothing to be scared of.Shelby cried every night since then because he didn't talk to her this made him hurt .He stood by the bathroom door and watched her cry.Sometimes he would cry to.Susan heard them and she knew why she heard Shelby tell Scott that she loved him Shelby wasn't ready to tell him but Susan knew she meant it .
Shelby:Scott talk to me please.
Scott:I'm sorry Shel but. . .
Shelby:You have been ignoring me Scott and I want to know before we leave why.
Scott:What if you never told me you loved me do you think this would had happened.
Shelby:There is no what ifs not anymore we can't go back in time.Did you think it would of made a difference.
Scott:You tell me.
Shelby:You are fool of crap Scott. Yes it would of made a difference because you wouldn't be acting like a jerk.I've had the worst time of my life with you here.I thought it would be different.
Scott:You've had worse.
Shelby:What does that mean?
Scott:You tell me.
After that last remark Shelby punched him right in the jaw and went into the bathroom and locked the door.She cried till morning when they had to leave she finally came out of the bathroom and that was 2:00 in the after noon.Scott knew where she was and tried to talk to her but she cused right back at him.He didn't know she would say awful things to him but she did.Scott held ice on his jaw allday. Susan was thankful that she punched him last night because he deserved it after he said those awful things to Shelby.
When they got to Horizon everyone said their hellos and they unpacked.Shelby ran to the docks as fast as she could.She wanted Scott with her to hold her.She had told Scott what he wanted to hear and in return he hurts her.
Scott looked for Shelby everwhere and then found her at that she was at the docks holding herself.He watched her behind her back.He slowly walked up to her without her knowing and knelt down and held her.She turned her head with tears.
Scott:I know I hurt you but please forgive me.
Shelby:I don't think I can anymore.
Scott:What do you mean?
Shelby:You always hurt me in some way or another.I can' take it any more.So I made a decision.
Scott,we need to say goodbye to eachother.
Scott:I'm not going to say goodbye.I need you and you know you need me you told me you loved me.
Shelby:You told me you loved me.
Scott:Loved Shelby that word is past tince I love you now.
At that Scott took Shelby's hand and kissed lips and then her forehead and asked her how she felt she said fine.He got up and said we are not over.He went to his dorm and then he went back to the docks for some weird reason .He thought Shelby would be there but she wasn't.It was dark by now and the stars were shining brightly.Someone came out of the bushes.
Shelby:What ifs don't exsist for us but we do.
Scott went over to Shelby and hugged her.He kissed her passionatley .She looked in his eyes when they were done and just stared.She went and got a blanket out of the shed and layed it on the dock.They both layed on it and Shelby layed her chest on Scott's chest and they just layed there looking at the stars.
Scott:Why do you think they shine so brightly tonight.
Shelby:The stars?Because they like to see us together.
Sophie and Peter were sitting on the rokcs close to the docks and heard every word.They weren't going to stop Shelby and Scott because it was good that they were like that.Peter knew they weren't going to try anything because they exccepted each other now.Him and Sophie just watched from the side till Scott and Shelby fell asleep then Sophie and Peter went in.
Daisy was just wondering how long Shelby was not going to talk to her.
Julliete was knowing why Shelby wasn't talking to them because her and Scott were out.She assidently told Peter where they were because she had saw them at the docks yesterday.Julliete was so happy for Scott and Shelby for the first time they loved each other.Why would Shelby become so mean to Daisy and so nice to me she wondered?
Shelby:Hey Jules ,hi dais.
Daisy:Where have you been?
Jules:Stay out of her business Daisy.
Daisy:Why would you know anything about Shelby and where she has been?Unless Shelby
told you where she was .
Shelby:Yes I did happy I told her and not you.
Daisy:No it's ok I understand you are ulode two friends at once.
Shelby:I'm glad you understand.Bye.
Jules follows Shelby and they talk about what happened with Scott.Shelby felt relieved that she could tell Jules stuff and she would understand because she liked boys to and they both knew that Daisy hated boys and Always will.Jules felt safer with Shelby than she did with Kat.It was easier talking to Shelby about boys and she wasn't pushed about her feelings.She then thought about Shelby and that was probaly the same reason Shelby felt safe with Jules.She knew that Scott and Peter pushed Shelby to talk about her past and Jules had always felt sorry for her and for herself but things now were different because her and Shelby were finaly getting along.
Shelby was thinking why Jules stood up for her back there.She had finally desided Jules really liked her.That was good because Shelby really liked her.She wished that Daisy would just stop asking her questions about Scott and where she had been.Then finally Jules stood up for her and she thought that was cool.Daisy pestered her about everything now and about her real dad and was he nice .Shelby didn't want to talk about her father.She talked about it with Jules and Scott but she never talked about him with Daisy.She was glad because Daisy would not have understood why he had left.She thought Jules would know because her father left for practically the same reason.Shelby pretended not to see the hurt in Daisy's eyes when Shelby told her who she told where she was.
Jules:Do you think that my dad left because of what I acted like?
Shelby:I know my dad did but I don't know why dads really leave.
Jules:I wish I knew.
Shelby:Maybe your mom kicked him out my mom kicked my dad out but I wanted to go with him and my mom would not let me and he never came back to get me. My mom told me every night it was how I acted and that he never really loved me.
Jules:That was mean, for her to say.
So how do you guys like this story?I know it may seem like I stole other peoples ideas but I swear I didn't.I promise everyone of you that I didn't.
