Shelby got out of the bed. It was five in the morning. She couldn't go back to sleep because all she saw was Johns' face and then it slowly turned into Walts'. She got up and got dressed and went out to the docks.
Scott heard a door slam to the girls dorm. He got up wondering who it was. He hoped it was Daisy so he could talk to her about Shelby. He didn't know what to do. He got up and got dressed and headed for the docks.
Scott walked up to the docks and saw Shelby. She was crying, and it killed him, because all he could do was watch. He walked over and sat beside Shelby. Shelby looked up to see Scott.
Shelby: Scott, I don't really feel like hearing it from you right now.
Scott: Shelby, I only have one question.
Shelby: What is it?
Scott: I thought you loved *me*. Then he comes and you cry your heart out because you love him. All I want to know is who am I?
Shelby: I don't know. I love you, Scott. Honestly. But he was my first love. He was the one I was supposed be with. And now I don't know if I'm supposed to be thanking Walt, because now I have you, the most important thing in my, or am I supposed to be crying because I've lost one of the most important things in my life. I feel like my heart has stopped beating, and I feel like I'll never be complete again. But when I'm with you, I feel complete. Why? I don't understand. And plus how can you feel the same way towards two people, who are totally diffrent. I mean John would not be caught playing football, and you would not be caught dancing. So how can I love you both when you two are totally diffrent people. Will you tell me, Scott. Because for the life of me, I need to know. I need to know for my heart, for myself. Can you please just tell me, Scott? Because I feel like that is the only way I can move on, is to find that answer.
Scott: I don't know the answer, Shel. But I know that, if that would of happened to me with another girl, I wouldn't care how she felt because I would kick that guys' ass. Not because of her, or how she felt, but to show she was mine, like a ruling thing. And all I know is, I couldn't kick Johns' ass. No matter how much I wanted to. Because I knew if I did I'd lose you. And I didn't care if he thought you were single or not. I was just scared that if I did kick his ass, I'd lose you. Like if I won, I'd be losing because I'd lose you. (it's quiet of a few seconds) I know I'm not even making since am I.
Shelby: No, you are because that's how I feel. Like if I fight my past and even if I win I'll still lose because I'll lose you. But if I fight my future and win I'll lose John. It's has if I can't fight because if I don't fight I won't lose you or John, but if I don't fight then I'll lose myself. So now I have to pick what part of my life I want to fight for. My future or my past. And either way I'm gonna lose somebody.
Scott: You won't lose me, Shel. I promise.
Scott got up and left. Leaving Shelby to choose which demon she will fight.
**********************************************************************************
Everybody sat class. They were all worried about Shelby. What were they supposed to do. How could they help her. They didn't know and it scared them. Peter and Sophie walked in and stood at the front of the class.
Peter: Okay guys we have a new assignment for you. It is due in two days. We want you to write a short essay saying what you think life is. Then in two days you will read it to the class and put something that is very valuable to you in a hole in the ground, like buring a bad memory of your life. Remember it's due in two days. Okay class dismissed. Oh and Jen you won't have to do this project since you haven't been here very long.
Everybody got up and walked out.
**********************************************************************************
Everybody sat at the dinner table. Shelby walked up and sat down at the far side of the table. Everybody looked at her concerned. Shelby just ignored them, she was tired, and didn't feel like fighting. Sophie walked up, with some envolopes.
Sophie: Mail call. Scott you have one from your dad.
Handing Scott the envolope.
Sophie: Dasiy. You have one from your dad.
Handing the envolope also.
Sophie: And Shelby I'm not sure who this is from it has no return address.
Shelby took the envolope from Sophie and opened it. Not knowing she was doing it she read it a loud.
Shelby: Dearest Shelb,
I know what you said can not be true. But I know that you do not love me no more. I feel as if you have taken my heart. And it does hurt. But Shelb I will move on. Don't worry about me. Just remember I love you and we will always have our dreams. I have placed something in the envolope, to remind you of our dreams. To remind you I will always be here.
I love you,
John
Shelby turned the envolope upside down and a fourteen carret gold ring with two real diamonds in it fell out onto Shelby palm. Shelby slowly started to cry.
Sophie: What is it, Shelb.
Shelby: Our dream.
David: How is a ring a dream?
Shelby: It was our engagment ring. A few weeks before I ranaway we were in a jewlery store and I saw this ring and I said if I ever get married then I want a ring like this for my engagment ring. The next day John gave it to me. (starting smile through tears) He was sixteen and I was fourteen so we decided the year I turned sixteen we would go and get married in the Spanish Gardens on June eigth at four thirty p.m. The same date and time of the first day we danced together. A few days before I ranaway I gave it back to him and told him to hold on to it because I would be back, I told him to hold on to our dream and not let it go. But I'm the one who let it go. I'm the one.
Shelby got up and ran to her dorm.
**********************************************************************************
The next day Shelby didn't leave her dorm. She stayed in there and worked on her paper and thought of her life. No one bothered her either they just left her alone.
**********************************************************************************
Everybody stood around a hole in the ground. Today was the day they turned in their projects. Juliet was first.
Juliet: Okay I think life is a book. And you have your good chapters and your bad chapters. But it is the end that matters and the end depends on you. It's up to you at the end, you can make it a happy ending or a sad one. But it's only up to you and your choices.
Peter: Okay. Now what are you going to throw in the hole.
Juliet: I'm going to throw away this knife. (holding up a knife) I cut myself with knives. And I'm finished cutting myself. I want my last chapter to be good.
With that Juliet threw the knife in the hole.
Auggie: I think life is a fight. Sometimes you fight for the good reasons the ones worth fighting for. And then there are the fights that give you more pain then victory. And last there are the fights that you should just back down from. And life is that sometimes you have to fight for it to move on. Sometimes things are stupid to fight for like fitting in. Then there is the time you let life just run its' course no fights at all.
Peter: Okay. Now what do you have to throw in the hole.
Auggie: My gang patch. It wasn't worth fighting for.
Auggie bent over and threw a patch in the ground.
Ezra: I think life is like a family. You have to do things to keep it together and then you have to get over things to keep it together. Like I had to get over my parents using me to get on with life and now I have a family. Because I got over it.
Sophie: So what are you giving up?
Ezra: The papers to find my real parents.
Ezra took at some sheets of paper and ripped them once and threw them in the hole.
David: I think life is like a country. Sometimes you have to fight to get what you need and then when you are finished fighting you get to see what you have made and be proud of it. We had to fight wars for the U.S. to have what it has now, just like life you have to fight wars to get by.
Sophie: Alright.
David: I'm letting go of my dads' army patch. Because I'm finished fighting and I have succeed and if I kept this patch it just shows me that I hurt a lot of people and I'll regret it, and I shouldn't regret something I had to do.
David leaned over the hole and threw an army patch in there.
Dasiy: I think life is a merry-go-round. You have your ups and downs and you can't control it because if you don't get on the merry-go-round then you don't have a life. So you have to deal with the downs but from every down there will always be an up. And at the end of the ride you have to hope you end up with an up, because you can't always control things in life.
Peter: Okay. I see where you're coming from.
Daisy: I'm giving up my goth make-up because that was a down in life. And the only way I can go back up in life is to get over the down and that means getting over the mask.
Daisy looked at the hole and threw a bag of goth make-up in there.
Scott: I think life is a football game. You have your tackels and but in the end you get a touchdown and win the game and that is all that is important.
Peter: Okay. What are you giving up.
Scott: I'm giving up my very first football because that was another game and I lost it. Now I have to move on to the next game and I hope I win this one.
Scott grabbed a football from the ground and threw it in the hole. Everybody looked at Shelby.
Peter: Shelby, it's your turn.
Shelby: Life is dreams. You have your good dreams and you have your nightmeres. And sometimes the nightmeres ruin your good dreams. But you have to go back to sleep so you can make new dreams. And I'm throwing away a dream that was ruined because of a nightmere.
Shelby walked up to the hole and took the ring John gave her off her hand. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath and just let go. The ring fell to the bottom, Shelby didnt' cry or anything else. She just turned around and went up to Scott and held his hand.
Shelby: I'm ready to go back to sleep and have another dream. Except this time I want it to be with you.
Scott just smiled and hugged her.
**********************************************************************************
The End.
Don't worry I have another story coming up. Shelbys' mom gives Shelby a unpleasent surprise and Jen makes her move on Scott. But I'll need twelve reviews before I can give you the next story.
P.S. You might want to read the An S&S lovestories starting with the nightmere.
