take the heart from my chest.....
please don't take the girl" - song Don't Take The Girl
*~*~*

It had been two weeks since Scott and Shelby had broken up. His dad and the skank had left. Shelby had stopped crying about two days after they broke up. She still wouldn't get into a conversation with him though. He missed her so much but he knew Elaine could dig up stuff on Shelby and about her past. And it could really hurt Shelby. So this is for the best he kept telling his- self. He looked around the lodge. Daisy and Shelby were sitting on the couch talking to each other. Juliet and Auggie were cuddeling in a chair. David and Ezra were both sitting on the floor talking. Scott was sitting in a chair beside Auggie and Juliet. Peter had called group because they were to have a new cliffhanger today. Scott went back to thinking about Shelby when he heard the door lodge open and close. He looked up and saw Peter and Sophie with a boy. He couldn't really see the boy because Peter was blocking him.

Peter: Everybody this is the new cliffhanger.

Scott still couldn't see the new cliffhanger.

Peter: Jackson this is Daisy, Shelby, Juliet, Auggie, Ezra, David and ...

Before Peter could say Scott's name the new cliffhanger stepped from behind Peter and interupted him.

Jackson: Scott.

Scott regonized the boy. Jackson had sandy blond hair, green eyes, very tall and atheletic.

Scott: Jackson.
Jackson: What are you doing here?
Scott: I'd ask you the same thing.

Before Jackson could answer though Peter interupted them.

Peter: Do you know each other.
Scott: Jackson and me played football together and partied together.
Jackson: Yeah those were the good times.
Scott: ( smiling) Yeah they were pretty good.
Jackson: So how did you get here.
Scott: My father attacked me when I got home with a mad man and he dragged me up here. What about you?
Jackson: Well I sort of left home for a few days. When my mom found me it was either here or dear old dads'. Guess what I picked?

Before Scott answered Shelby said something.

Shelby: Wow. A athlete that wasn't drug up here. I think that's a first.

Jackson looked over at Shelby and smiled at her. Scott knew that smile it was the smile that said Jackson liked her and usally he got what he liked.

Jackson: Well how did you get up here?
Shelby: Same as you. Dearest mom found me after running away. Dearest daddy didn't want me though. So it was either here or an orphanage.
Jackson: ( smiling) Tough decision. Huh.
Shelby: ( smiling; sarcastic tone) Yeah it at least took me a minute to give her my answer.
Jackson: ( playing) So you choose the orphanage and they threw you out.
Shelby: ( playing) How did you guess. Then it was here or juvi.
Jackson: ( smiling) Hu-huh. For what crime besides being cute.
Shelby: 3rd degree manslaughter.
Jackson: Yeah and why did you kill him.
Shelby: Because he called me cute.
Jackson: Well go ahead kill me because I'll call you cute all I want.
Shelby: ( sarcastic) Yeah and you * will* be six feet under by tomarrow night.
Jackson: ( smiling) Your funny.
Shelby: ( dry) My goal in life. To get dumb jocks to laugh and tell me I'm funny.

Before Jackson could reply. Peter broke in.

Peter: Okay Jackson, Ezra will be your buddy. He will show you around the campass.
Jackson: ( sarcasticly) Oh joy.
Peter: Then you will have to spend all day in your cabin.
Jackson: ( jokingly) So I'm grounded.
Peter: For the day.
Jackson: Oh how much fun. Bye, Scott. Bye Shelby.

Jackson smiled at Shelby and then turned around and followed Ezra out of the lodge.
*~*~*

Scott was fuming as he and Auggie sat in the boys' dorm.

Scott: Who does he think he is.
Auggie: I belive his name was Jackson. And why are you so mad at him?
Scott: Didn't you see the way he hit on Shelby.
Auggie: Meat, get over it. You broke up with her remember.
Scott: And I told you why.
Auggie: Well maygbe you should tell her why.
Scott: I can't.
Auggie: Why not? Man Meat, you love the girl and she loves you too.
Scott: Because of Elaine.
Auggie: Well all I can say is if you want to continue this game then you have to get over Shelby.
Scott: How though? That is the question.

Scott looked at Auggie and then laid on his bed to think.
*~*~*

Scott sat down beside Ezra, David and Daisy on the ground. They were sitting right beside the football field but he didn't notice who was playing.

Scott: Hey guys what ya doing.
Ezra: Watching Juliet and Shelby play football against Auggie and Jackson.

Scott immendently looked up and started to watch the football game. Well he really mostly watched Shelby. Shelby and Juliet were on a team and Auggie and Jackson were on the other team. Juliet threw the ball to Shelby. Shelby started to run to their touchdown. Right before she got there Jackson caught up with her and threw her on the ground. Scott starred in shock as he saw his best friend lay on top of his ex- girlfriend. They stayed in that position for a few more seconds and then he got off of her and helped her up.

Daisy: ( saying to not anyone paticular) They totally like each other.
Scott: ( getting upset) No they don't.

Daisy looked over at him and gave him and evil look.

Daisy: Why would you care. You're the one who broke up with her remember.

Scott knew she was right so he just continued to watch the game. It was the last play. Juliet threw the ball to Shelby who caught it. Shelby started to run for their touchdown. Right before she reached it Jackson got in front of her. He kept on blocking her so she couldn't get around. Daisy, Ezra, and David were laughing at how Shelby was upset since she couldn't get around Jackson but kept on trying.

Daisy: Do you think she'll get past him?
Ezra: Yes.
Daisy: What about you, David?
David: More then likly.

They all continued to watch the game laughing. After about two minutes of Shelby trying to get past, she was still trying to. Everybody had stopped laughing and was watching the game smiling. Shelby tried one last time to get past Jackson. When she did Jackson her up and threw over his shoulder and started running toward Auggie and his touchdown.

Jackson: ( yelling at Auggie in a playful voice) We're going to make a touchdown, Aug.
Shelby: ( laughing and yelling) No you're not, you're cheating. Juliet help me.

By this time Juliet and Auggie were rolling on the ground laughing. Daisy, Ezra, and David were laughing too.

Daisy: Well what do you say to that. Shelby, didn't get past him.

Scott didn't laugh though. He hated it. That should be him not Jackson. At least that was what Scott thought. When he finally stopped thinking and looked up he saw Juliet beside him and Auggie beside her still laughing. He looked up to see Jackson infront of him still holding Shelby and her still yelling at him and laughing. She had her hands on Jacksons shoulders boosting her up.

Jackson: What do you say to that ,Aug, we won.
Shelby: First put me down. Second you cheated.
Jackson: ( playfully) I don't like to be called at cheater.

With that Jackson boosted her up so high that her waist reached his sholders. She started screaming again.

Shelby: ( yelling) To high, to high!! I hate even being three feet off the ground. Daisy, help me.

But Daisy was to busy laughing.

Shelby: Put me down. Put me down damn it.
Jackson: Say please.
Shelby: ( in innocent) Please put me down.
Jackson: Okay

**Well I said friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
Please don't take her love away from me
I'm beggin' you friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
She's everything in life I'll ever need**


Jackson laid her softly on the ground and looked at her.

Shelby: ( playfully but trying to act serious) You, you punk, bully, liar, cheater, um.... you loser.

Shelby punched Jackson in the sholder playfully. Jackson tried to act like she had hurt him.

Jackson: Well we have quite an arm don't we, Miss. Merrick.
Shelby: Yes and if you cheat again I'll give you something more just a bruised arm.
Jackson: Oh yeah what would that be.

Shelby looked around to find something to say when she saw Peter. She turned around and smiled at Jackson.

Shelby: A week of shuns.
Jackson: Yeah right, what are you his daughter.
Shelby: Yep.
Jackson: ( shocked) Your kidding for real.
Shelby: He adopted me a few weeks ago.
Jackson: That's cool.

Before Shelby could reply Scott said something.

Scott: Guys we got kitchens. Lets go.

Everybody slowly got up and headed for the kitchen.

**She is life when I want to live
She's everything to me in life that life can give
She's my water when I need a drink
She's the first thought in my mind
Each time I try to think**

*~*~*


**Let me tell you now friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
Please don't take her love away from me
I'm beggin' you friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
She's everything in life I'll ever need**



Scott looked around the lodge to see Shelby and Jackson talking by the fire. He instantly got jelous. He wanted that to be him. It just wasn't fair. He sat in a chair and watched as his friend took the love of his life from him.

**She's my fingers when I want to feel
She's the only thing in life to me that's really real
She is love she's all the love I know
She could kiss the ground in wintertime
And make a flower grow**

*~*~*


**Let me tell you now friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
Please don't take her love away from me
I'm beggin' you friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
She's everything in life I'll ever need**


Scott sat in the dorm with Auggie, Ezra and David when Jackson walked in smiling.

Scott: Jackson, we need to talk.
Jackson: Sure what about.
Scott: I want you to stay away from Shelby.

Now all the boys were looking at Scott.

Jackson: What? Why?
Scott: Listen if I get jelous I'll lose her. And you're also on of my best friends so I can't beat you up. So listen to me. Just stay away from her.
Jackson: Listen as far as I could tell you two broke up. So why do you care?

Scott looked at his friends with pleading eyes.

Scott: Jackson I know you, I know you get what you want. Please don't take Shelby. ( swallowing his pride) She's all I got.

Jackson looked at his friend as did everybody else. Nobody had ever seen Scott say something like before or even beg for a girl.

Scott: Please I love her.

**Let me tell you now friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
Well I said friend
Don't take her she's all I've got
I'm beggin' you friend
Don't take her she's all I've got**
