Scott stood in shock. Everyone seemed to lean closer to him waiting for his response. He stared down at Shelby who had begun to cry, seeing her cry was awful for some reason it made him want to throw something or punch something. She stood starring at him, tears streaming down her pink cheeks, waiting for an answer praying that it wasn't true, it just couldn't be.
" Shelby no thats not true, i just met Faith like an hour ago, and i would never hurt you like that." Scott began to explain the room seemed to take a deep breath and sigh and lean away from there conversation. Scott took her hand in his. " Besides, i don't want to be with anybody but you"
Shelby laughed at herself a little and smiled up at him. " god, i'm sorry you must think i'm mental or something." Shelby smiled up at him. He shook his head no sweetly. " I'm sorry to have doubted you, i should have known better, i am so stupid, i'll be back i need to take care of something" She said hugging him tightly.
" Ok" Scott said a little confused. But this was obviously something Shelby needed to take care of herself with out his interference and for once he was going to let her take care of it and have some faith in the love they shared. He watched as Shelby ran off throught the lodge until she disappeared in the crowd of people who were begining to settle down for lights out.
Shelby couldn't find Faith anywhere, but when she did she would kill her was all that was in her mind. As she searched throught the crowds of people she saw Auggie who nodded his head at the door motioning to where he had seen Faith run off to before. Shelby made sure Peter wasn't in her view and slipped out the back door into the terrential rain. She pulled the hood of her sweatshirt up over her head and looked around, Faith sat on the picnic table oblivious to the whipping rain around her. Shelby ran over to her through the sloshing mud where grass used to be.
" Why did you lie to me?" Shelby screamed over the rain.
" I'm sorry miss perfect I just wanted to know what it was like to finally see you be as empty as the rest of us." Faith screamed. She got up and ran into the girls dorm. Shelby followed her.
" What are you talking about?" She asked confused.
" My whole life I had to live in your shadow. I mean most people didn't even know my name everyone just called me Shelbys best friend." She said angirly.
" And you never said anything to me." Shelby said confused. " I mean come on Faith, there is obviously something your not telling me here, whats going on with you, why are you even here?" Shelby asked
" When we were little my mom always used to say to me, why can't you be more like that beautiful little Shelby girl, why can't you be as perfect as you." Faith explained. she took a deep breath and continued. " But i knew your secret Shelby, i knew what was going on with you at home. You were so far from this perfect little angel that everyone made you out to be." She paced the room as she spoke. " I was so scared for you. And if that was perfect I didn't want to be it. So I made sure to be the exact opposite of what you were, I dont know I guess some part of me thought that if I was it would make it ok that I never told anyone"
" What happened to me.. " Shelby said trying to force the vision of his face out of her mind " It was nobodys fault"
" But I should have told somebody" Faith said now crying.
" You were just a little girl you didn't know any better" Shelby spoke lightly. " Faith, lots of people could have told, i could have told, my mom knew i know she did but she never said anything either because everyone just thought that it wasn't worth ruining that perfect image i had." Shelby said begining to cry.
" Still though, i'm sorry" Faith said whipping her face with her sleeve. Shelby stood up and reached under her bed. She pulled out a decorated card shoe box and opened it. It was full of letters and pictures. She pulled out one and handed it to Faith.
" Maybe you knew and didnt tell anybody, but i'm glad you didn't" Shelby said smirking at the picture.It was them in there homecoming gowns standing infront of her house. " Because if you had I never would have had this, I never would have gotten to be a ballerina or homecoming queen, i'd be off somwhere in some foster home." Shelby smiled closing the box.
" I was so jealous of you" Faith smiled. " And I hated it because I knew and it made me feel sick"
" Well I always was cuter than you" Shelby laughed. " I meant a thousand times to send you that picture, but I could never think of what to write you or how to explain what happened to me, so i'm glad you knew" Shelby said getting serious. " I can't say i'm glad it happened to me but I guess its ok with me now, I dont know I guess I know that god will never give me more than I can handle in one day, and as long as I know that, I can make it."
