Scott was at the docks waiting for Shelby. He was so happy. Everything was perfect he thought. His dad and him were getting along okay. And him and Shelby were better then ever. Scott heard some footsteps on the dock and looked up from where he was sitting to see Shelby walking toward him.
Shelby: Hey cowboy.
Scott: Hey Shel.
Shelby walked up to him and was standing right in front of him. She leaned him leaned over and pecked him on the cheek.
Shelby: Miss me.
Scott: Lean closer.
Shelby: ( confused) What?
Scott: I'll tell you if you lean closer.
Shelby leaned closer to Scotts face. He put his hand behind her head and pushed her head down to his and kissed her passionatly. When they finally parted.
Shelby: Is that a yes.
Scott leaned up and pulled Shelby to him sitting her down on his lap. Where he started to kiss her more passionatly then ever. He put his hands around her waist while she put her hand around his neck. They kissed for a few more minutes until the finally parted.
Scott: Yes, I did miss you more then ever.
Shelby and Scott started kissing more and more. He slowly stood up and laid her down on the docks. He got on top of her in a sex like position. He started to put his hands up her shirt. He slowly started to kiss her neck.
Shelby: Scott, stop.
Scott: ( still kissing her) Hmm?
Shelby: ( pushing him off her) Stop.
Scott: ( getting upset) What is your problem, Shel?
Shelby: I can't do this.
Scott: What do you mean we've done it before. ( An S&S lovestories: Can't Fight The Moonlight)
Shelby: Yeah we did. And that was the best night of my life. And I love you, Scott. But I can't just have sex with everytime I want too. Because sooner or later it's gonna stop meaning something it won't be making love no more it'll just be sex. And I don't want that to happen to us because I'll lose you. ( starting to cry)
Scott: ( feeling bad for snapping at Shelby) You're never gonna lose me. I love you too much. And I'll wait for you and I could never get tired of you. I love you.
Shelby smiled and leaned in and kissed Scott. He returned the kiss and kissed her back.
*~*~*
Scott and Shelby sat in the lunchroom eating their breakfast when Peter came up to them.
Peter: Scott, your dad is on the phone.
Scott: Okay. ( looking at Shelby) Be right back.
Shelby: Okay
Scott got up and left the lunchroom leaving Shelby and Peter.
Shelby: I wonder what his dad wants?
Peter: I'm not sure, Shelb.
Shelby: I just hope it's good not bad.
Peter looked down and smiled at his adopted daughter. He and Shelby had gotton very close since he and Sophie adopted her. Shelby had gotton close to Sophie to but not as close as she had gotton to Peter. Everybody had gotton used to the fact that Shelby was now legally Peter and Sophie and usally the new counclers would just tell Peter his daughter was looking for him. Or when Peter wanted to talk to Shelby the counclers would tell her her father was looking for her. Jeff and Sophie and the rest of the old counclers still called them Peter and Shelby though. Scott walked into the caffeteria smiling.
Shelby: So what did he have to say?
Scott: Just that he is coming to vist tomarrow.
Shelby: Oh. How do you feel about that?
Scott: Honestly, I'm a bit scared. I mean what if he says he doesn't want me no more or love me.
Shelby: Then he is the most stupidest man in the world, because anybody who doesn't love you and your cute puppy dog eyes must be stupid.
Scott: ( smiling) I love you, Shel.
Shelby: ( smiling) I know and I love you too.
Scott gave Shelby a small kiss and got up as they both headed for class.
*~*~*
Scott walked into the lodge and saw Shelby sitting on the couch. He went and sat down beside her.
Scott: Hey beautiful
Shelby just rolled her eyes. Peter walked in and called group and they all got in a circle.
Peter: Okay our topic for tonight what is the one name you hate the most and why. Juliet you start.
Juliet: I hate to be called fat because that's what got me to throw-up in the first place. Daisy.
Daisy: I hate to be called the mistake. Since that is what my mom and dad called me. Ezra.
Ezra: I hate to be called John and Jane's son. Because I'm not just their son I'm an individual person. David.
David: I hate to be called Privite David. Because that's what my dad used to call like I was in the army. Auggie.
Auggie: I hate to be called stupid. It just hurts my feelings. Scott.
Scott: I hate to be called Scotty and you all know why.
Peter: I think all know each others names that we hate to be called so on with another topic.
Juliet: Shelby, hasn't gone yet. Shelby what do you hate to be called beside prostatute and stuff like that.
Everybody turned and looked at Shelby.
Shelby: I hate to be called Shellie and my girl.
Peter: Why?
Shelby: Because when he came in my room at night he would say " Shellie you're my girl so you have to be quiet." And that's what he said every night. And everytime I hears those names I hate them more and more because it reminds me of him.
Peter: Okay I think that one is new. Well I think that is enough for tonight guys.
Everybody got up and Scott went over to Shelby and whispered something in her ear.
Scott: ( whispering) eleven o'clock the docks.
Shelby smiled and then walked on to her dorm with Daisy.
*~*~*
Shelby walked onto the docks. She looked around but didn't see Scott. She started to walk over to the benches but decided not to just when she got there. She decided just to stand and look at the lake until Scott got there. She stood there a few minutes when someone put their hands over her eyes.
Voice: Guess who?
Shelby knew it was Scott but decided to play along.
Shelby: ( playfully) Auggie!! You know me and Scott are supposed to be meeting tonight so I can break up with him for you.
Scott: ( Playful) That hurt.
Shelby turned around and put her arms around Scott's neck as he put his arms around her waist.
Shelby: ( trying to act serious) Well he is cuter.
Scott: I'll show you cuter.
Scott swooped her up in the air and kissed her passionatly. They continued to kiss for what felt like forever until they finally had to go back to their dorms.
*~*~*
Scott waited with Shelby at the steps for his dad to show up.
Shelby: Your ready for this?
Scott: As long as you're with me.
Shelby: ( smiling) I know how you feel.
Scott leaned in and kissed Shelby on the lips when they parted they saw Peter walking up to them with two people behind them.
Peter: Scott, their here.
Before Scott could say anything Peter moved out of the way to reveal Mr. Berringer and Elaine. Scott stood up and Shelby did the same.
Scott: ( getting upset) What is she doing here?
Martin: Elaine and I are not going to get a divorce.
Scott: ( shocked) What? After all she's done.
Before Martin could answer Peter said something.
Peter: I think you and Scott need to come in my office and talk.
Scott and Martin obeyed leaving Shelby and Elaine by theirselves. Shelby rolled her eyes at Elaine and then walked to her dorm.
*~*~*
Shelby laid on her bed. It had been an hour since Scott had left with Martin and Peter to talk. Shelby started to stand up when she heard a knock at the door. Shelby rolled her eyes. Who else could it but Scott. But he usally doesn't even knock she thought.
Shelby: Come in.
Shelby turned around and smiled but it quickly turned to a frown when she saw Elaine standing in the doorway. Elaine looked over at her and then walked to Shelby's desk and picked up a picture of Scott and Shelby.
Elaine: You're Shelby right?
Shelby: ( trying to hold down her temper) Yes.
*~*~*
Scott walked up to the girls dorm. He really needed to talk to Shelby. Him and his dad had just gotton in a fight again. Scott went to walk in when he heard two people talking.
Scott: That's Eline.
Scott slowly opened the door and closed it back. He leaned up agianst the wall spying on Shelby and Elaine's conversation.
*~*~*
Elaine: ( Not knowing Scott is listening) So how do you know, Scotty.
Shelby: His name is * Scott* and I date him. You're Elaine the one that molested him right.
Elaine: ( suddenly getting uncomfortable) He won't stay with you for long. Me and him have history.
Shelby: Oh please. You want to know what kind of history you and him have. You molested him, made him go to drugs so he wouldn't have to think about you. Not mentioning breaking up his relationship with his father and breaking up his family. Yeah you two really have history.
Elaine: You have history too, Miss. Merrick. Drugs, runaway, *prostotute*. ( Elaine noticed how Shelby suddenly got uncomfortable) I struck a nerve. You are nothing but a little slut. And that's all you'll ever be.
Before Elaine could finish Scott interupted her.
Scott: No Elaine, you're the slut.
Elaine: ( trying to act all innocent) Scotty I was just....
Scott: ( cutting her off) You need to leave and I mean now.
Elaine: Fine.
Elaine stompped off. Scott looked at Shelby and gave her a look that said he was sorry. She smiled at him and he turned around and left.
*~*~*
Scott sat on his bed thinking. He couldn't belive Elaine. How could she do that to Shelby. Then he sighed. He knew Elaine could get a lot of information on Shelby that could really hurt Shelby. The only way to stop it was to break up with Shelby. He had to, to save her.
*~*~*
Shelby started to lay down in her bed when she felt something under the covers. She reached under the covers and pulled out a letter. It read:
Dear Shelby,
meet me at the dock at 11
Scott.
Shelby smiled to herself and waited for eleven to come.
*~*~*
Shelby walked up and smiled as she saw Scott waiting for her at the docks.
Shelby: Hey cowboy.
Scott: ( seriously) Shelb, we need to talk.
Shelby: ( getting worried) Okay.
Scott looked at Shelby.
**We made it final today.
I gave you all I had, you made your getaway.
All the love we once made turned to memories today. **
Scott: I don't think we should see each other anymore.
Shelby: ( confused) What?
Scott: ( trying to hold back tears) I don't want to see you no more. But I still want to be friends.
Shelby: ( getting upset) Friends!! What do you mean friends? I thought you loved me.
Scott: I'm sorry, Shel.
Shelby: Your sorry!! ( starting to cry) I should of known you wouldn't of been diffrent. I thought you loved me. I thought you cared.
Scott: Shel, don't do this.
Shelby: Don't do this!! What am I doing, Scott. What did I do wrong?
Scott: It's not you it's me.
Shelby: That's the oldest line in the book.
Scott: ( trying to hug Shelby) Shel....
Before he could say anything Shelby pushed away from Scott.
Shelby: Don't touch me.
Shelby turned around and ran to her dorm crying.
**I left the courtroom and went straight to the church.
I hit my knees and told God how much I hurt.
Nothin' left of my heart;
It's gonna be so hard to make a new start. **
*~*~*
Shelby ran into her dorm in tears. She was crying so loud that it woke up Daisy and Juliet.
**'Cause today my world slipped away.
We buried the plans that we made.
And tonight I'm alone and afraid.
'Cause today my world slipped away. **
Juliet: What's wrong?
Shelby: He...he broke up with me.
Daisy: ( shocked by the news) What?
Shelby: Yeah but he still wants to be *friends*. Friends!!
Juliet: Why?
Shelby: I have no idea. All he said was that it was him not me. Is that not the oldest line in the book.
Juliet: Shelby, calm down.
Shelby: No. I hate him. I hate him so bad for making feel this way. I thought I could trust him.
Daisy: It'll be okay.
Shelby: I loved him so much.
Shelby said as she laid down on her bed. Daisy walked over to her and laid down beside her comforted her.
**All my friends say I'll make it alright.
I'll recover and start a new life. **
*~*~*
**But that'll be so hard to do
'Cause livin' ain't worth livin' without you. **
Scott looked up at the stars as he sat on the bench at the docks. He was crying. He felt bad for hurting Shelby but he knew it was for the best.
Scott: I love you, Shel.
**'Cause today my world slipped away.
We buried the plans that we made.
And tonight I'm alone and afraid.
'Cause today my world slipped away. **
*~*~*
