Notice I do not own any of the characters except for the newbies. They all belong to FFC. I also do not own Justin Timberleke.
P.S. I can't spell

Reportor: Okay sir, you have my attention.
Craig: Look under the name Shelby Merrick.
Reportor: But what does this have to do with Shel Merringer.
Craig: Well have you ever heard of a name change for showbiz.
The reportor quickly typed in Shelby Merrick and was suprised by her record for prostitution and drugs.
Reportor: Well sir thank you.
Craig: Oh and I'm not the only one that knows. So does Justin Timberlike.
Reportor: Well sir make sure you look in next monthes magizine.
Criag: Thank you and good-bye.
With that Craig hung up. The reportor quickly dialed Justin Timberlikes number.
****************************************************
Shelby looked at Scott, Joey, and Jill throwing the football. She never had thought this could happen to her. How did she get so lucky. She was happy for once and she was afraid of letting that go.
Daisy: Penny for your thoughts.
Shelby: How did I get so lucky? I know I don't deserve it.
Daisy: That's where you're wrong. You deserve everything that makes your life happy. You are a mircle. You survive through the worst and yet you go back to it, to save someone else from being hurt. Shelb, you are an amazing person. I mean after what your step-father did and then giving up your life practicly to give your kids what you never had. Plus hurting your-self so Scott wouldn't have to give up anything. That takes someone special Shelb, and you are that person.
Shelby: (starting to cry) I love you, Daisy.
Daisy: I love you too.
Just then Scott walked up.
Scott: What's wrong?
Shelby: (smiling) Nothing, I better get them two cleaned up.
With that she took the kids in the lounge.
Scott: What did I miss?
Daisy: Shelby being Shelby. You know thinking she isn't good enough. Not understanding why she deserves the greatest life in the world. I don't think she still has gotton all the way over her past.
Scott: I don't know what to do? I love her so much.
Daisy: Scott, Shelby is like well... like a touchdown in football.
Scott: A touchdown I don't think I'm following you?
Daisy: She has fought for the ball and then when she gets it she runs as fast as she can because she knows if she gets caught then she is going to get hurt. So she runs. And passes every enemy and then when she finally gets the touchdown she wonders what have I done. What did I do to deserve this glory. Because she didn't see how she faced every enemy like we did. You get what I mean. You don't know what you deserve because you don't see it happening the way we do. You don't see how you turn and twist because all you know is your doing it. You don't see the challenge like we did. Just like Shelby didn't see the challenge she had to get over. Yeah she was tackeled a few times but she still made the touchdown and she thinks that by getting those tackels she is not good enough. When it only makes her better. Get it.
Scott: Yeah, yeah I do. Do you think she'll ever know.
Daisy: I don't know, I don't know.
Just then a porsh pulled up. Everybody walked outside. A man got out of the car, not just a man though it was Justin Timberleke.
Juliet: (smiling in shock) Oh my gosh.
Joey and Jill ran up to Justin.
Joey: Jus.... Jus.
Justin: Hey you two.
He bent down and hugged them and started walking toward Shelby.
Shelby: Justin!!
She ran up to Justin who picked her up in a hug and swung her around. A few seconds later he let her down. Scott was starting to get jelous.
Shelby: Justin, I'd like you to meet everybody. Peter and Sophie Scarbrow. This is Auggie, Ezra, David, Juliet.
Juliet: (still staring at him in shock) It is an honor.
Shelby: You will have to excuse her she is a little bit weird. And this best friend Daisy. And this is Scott my boyfriend.
Justin: So you're not with that asshole no more.
Shelby: No
Justin: Good but I have some bad news.
Shelby: What's wrong?
Justin: Shelb, a reportor called me today.
Shelby: Okay.
Justin: And he called me to ask for some information about you.
Shelby: What about me.
Justin: (breathing in deep) Shelb, he knows about your record and pretty soon there is going to be a lot of reportors here.
Shelby started to fall back when Justil grabbed her and picked her up and sat her down on a bench a few feet away.
Shelby: Oh my gosh.
Justin: I'm sorry I just didn't want you to be surprised when they came.
Shelby: It's okay.
Just then reportors started pulling up everywhere.
Justin: Should I hide you.
Shelby: No I have to do this.
With that Shelby stood up on the bench so she higher then everybody else.
Shelby: (yelling) Can I have your attention please?
Everybody shut-up and stared.
Shelby: I know why you are all here. You are here for a story. And I'm about to give you one. And probley when you leave here you won't like very much. You won't care about me. And you won't respect me. But that's okay. Next month in a magizine you will probly read an article in a magizine about my past. (starting to cry) And it won't have the best of things in there. It will have my jail record, and on that record it will say that I was runaway, I was arrested for drugs and (breathing) and prostotution.
Everybody started whispering.
Scott: Why is she doing this,Peter?
Peter: She is letting go once and for all.
Shelby: Before you say anything, please listen. It that magizine it won't say how my step-father molested me from the age of ten to fourteen. It won't say how it feels to go to bed at night and pray he wouldn't come in there. It won't say what it felt like when he came in my room. It won't say why I had to runaway. I had to runaway to live. There is two ways to kill a person. There is the fast way where you just shoot them or stab them. Then there is the slow way, where someone kills day by day. Well Walt was killing me day by day. He was killing me when he came in my room at night. He was killing me piece by piece. One day by destroying my dreams the next day by killing my confidence. Now I'm not proud of running and doing the things I did. But if I wouldn't of I would died. Now you are probley saying you could of gotton help from the police or my mother. Well my mother knew the whole time and never did anything. And the police would of arrested him yes but he would of just came back and hurt me worse. When my mother found me on the streets she took me here to Horizan. When I got here I was a little bitch. I had built up a wall to protect me. And I made sure no one broke through that wall. But then I meet two people, I'm not going to say their names because of record purposes. But they were my soul mate and my best friend. They broke my wall. And everytime I built it back up they'd break it again. They saved my life. But I don't regret what I did because when I got here I got a family. The one thing I wanted. I got a father, a mother, three brothers, two sister, a best friend, and a soulmate. I went my whole life feeling dirty for the things I couldn't control and I had to do. Well I'm sick of feeling dirty. My songs reflect on my life. And for so long I hid behind my songs. I've ran my whole life. I ran from my family, my fears, my soulmate, and myself. When I got into singing I thought this will be perfect I can run all I want and no one will care. I can't run no more. I've done it my whole life, I've ran from my life. My body can't do it no more, my heart can't, my life can't , and I can't. I have decided to retire from singing. Thank you all for being my fans. For listening to my songs to my life and not caring and judging. Thank you for showing me who I am. Good-bye.
With that she got down and hugged Peter. Everybody started clapping
