SCOTT'S WORLD EPISODE II
CHAPTER 1
They both walked out in silence as the sun shone brightly over the academy campus. Scott felt the retrains of the last month of his life lifted at his sudden freedom. They walked out to the parking lot passing the football field. Practice was going on and Scott stopped to reminisce on the only good time that he had during his stay. Martin noticed the longing look in his son's eyes and could almost read his thoughts.
"It's not too late to get back on your own team you know."
With a sad look on his face Scott said, "Things are different now. It can never go back to the way it was."
"Are you talking about Shelby? Tell me what's going on. Your mom only said that she was protecting her from your grandfather. That he was keeping you in line by making threats towards her. What was she suppose to be telling me?"
Scott all of a sudden felt very uncomfortable. He walked around in a circle and ran his hand nervously through his hair. How was he going to tell his dad of the mistake that he made? He wondered how his dad would react and if he would even forgive him. He wasn't even quite sure if he even had forgiven him about Elaine yet. He stopped pacing and looked off to the side. It was too hard to meet his father eyes.
"I got Shelby pregnant." There he finally spat it out. Now he waited for the reaction.
"You did WHAT? What about the rules at Horizon? How could you have let that happen? You were suppose to be protected there not running amuck. How do you even know that it is yours?"
Scott's mouth dropped open and he became defensive. "Shelby and I love each other and she wasn't with anyone else."
"Scott you are too young to understand what love really is. The only thing you feel are your hormones kicking in and it's not the same thing. I will not have her ruining your life. You have dreams to fulfill and a future to plan for before you can make that kind of commitment. I won't have you throw your talents away because some girl seduced you. When are you going to learn to control yourself? You could have at least used a condom." It was quite evident that Martin didn't like this little news one bit.
"Well thanks for having so much faith in me dad. We did use a condom. I guess it just wasn't efficient enough."
"Where did you get it from?"
Scott seemed a little confused at the bizarre question. "What do you mean where did I get in from? Shelby bought it somewhere."
"You let her bring the condom? Scott you should know better than to trust a female with that. How do you know that she wasn't trying to set you up? She could have easily put pinhole pricks through the wrapper and you would've never known it. Never trust a condom unless you purchased it yourself but I guess it's too late for that now isn't it?"
This got Scott thinking. Shelby wouldn't do that to him would she? She did have everything pre-planned for that night. She did know that it was going to happen before he did. Would Shelby deliberately trap him because she was afraid of loosing him? Scott really was anxious to get home now so that he could confront her. Scott looked at his dad and didn't know what else to say.
Martin realized that his son's mind was going through turmoil right now and it would be best if he just let it all sink in. He got Scott into the car and drove home in a very quite car. Scott refused to make any other conversation on the way home.
Susan had gotten a call from Martin when his plane touched down in Washington to say that he had Scott and that they were on their way home. Shelby was so excited because the long nightmare was finally over. It'd been over a month since she saw Scott last and she had butterflies in her stomach. She couldn't sit still and kept pacing the floor until she heard the car pull up into the driveway. She didn't know whether she should run out to meet him or wait until he came into the house. She went to the front door and opened it so she could get a good look at the guy she loved.
Scott had just gotten out of the car when he looked up and their eyes met. Shelby's heart froze when the sweet loving seductive eyes that she was expecting to see wasn't there. Instead there was something different about the way he looked at her. It was a look that she had only seen one time before and that was when he was telling her about how sick he was of Elaine. Something wasn't right and this scared her. She decided to stay in the house until he came in.
Susan had just come in from the kitchen when she saw Shelby standing in the front door. She went over to her and saw the deadpan look in her face.
"Shelby what's wrong?"
She turned and said "I don't know but something is wrong. I can feel it. Scott has the look of disgust in his face. Maybe I shouldn't be here."
"Nonsense. Don't you remember that it was Scott who wanted you here in the first place? Maybe he's just bitter about everything that has happened lately. Here he comes. I'll ask him how he is."
Scott approached the door and walked in brushing past Shelby and his mother. He walked to the other side of the room and plopped down into a chair like exhaustion just over came him.
Susan, "Hello Scott. You look tired honey, do you want to go take a nap?"
He just looked at Shelby and shook his head. "No I just need to talk to Shelby alone." With that said he walked passed them and headed upstairs.
Shelby looked a little confused and a lot scared. "I guess this means that I'm suppose to follow him."
Susan, "Go on. You to need to spend some time alone together. Go and find out what is bothering him and if you need anything just let me know."
Shelby shook her head and walked up the stairs into Scott's room. She walked in and saw him sitting on the edge of his bed slumped over with his face in his hands. "Scott you're scaring me. What happened? Did I do something?"
He looked up. "I don't know Shelby you tell me. Was the whole having sex thing set up to trap me?"
Shelby furrowed her eyebrows in confusion. "What do you mean? I thought you wanted it to happen also. You could have said no and turned me down. I gave you the option to back-out."
"Yeah but you knew I wouldn't. Guys never say no to sex do they?"
"Scott I'm not sure what you're getting at here. You seem really angry with me and I don't know why."
"Shelby where did you get the condom. I know that they don't carry them in the supply room?"
"I told you that I added a box of them to the supply voucher and they came in from the store down town. What does any of this have to do with where the condom came from?"
"Did you get a pin and prick holes in it to damage it?"
"Oh God Scott now I know what you are implying. You think that I deliberately wanted to get pregnant so that I could trap you? Well you're full of shit Scott. I don't use people like that especially ones that I thought that I cared for. Well I don't need you and your false assumptions anymore. You can just go to hell and I'm sorry that I was so gullible to believe that someone could actually care for me." She threw her hand over her month and ran into the bathroom and fell on her knees with her head over the toilet puking.
Scott's head was spinning now because he didn't know what to believe or feel. Maybe it was his dad who was wrong here. Scott heard Shelby hurling in the bathroom and went to see if she was alright. He walked in and saw her sitting on the floor with an exhausted look on her face leaning up against the bathtub.
" Go away Scott. I don't need you."
"Shelby your sick."
"Scott I've been puking for the last 2 weeks. It's called morning sickness. You don't have to worry about me anymore. Just get me a plane ticket back home and I'll be out of your life forever."
It was like a ton of bricks just hit him up side the head. Morning sickness and pregnant. She was carrying his baby and he was treating her like shit. He fell to his knees so that he was at her level.
"Oh God Shelby. You're carrying my baby."
She looked at him like he was off his rocker. I thought that I was the one with the changing hormones. "What's the matter with you Scott? Isn't that what our whole discussion has been about? I'm not going to hold you accountable so don't get your bowels in an up roar."
"NO Shelby you are not going anywhere. My dad made me have those feelings. That's not how I really feel. I love you and I love our unborn baby. If my dad can't handle it than fine. We'll go somewhere else and try to make it on our own. You're not leaving me because I wouldn't be able to survive without you. You are my soulmate."
Shelby had tears flowing down her face as she reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck pulling him closer to her. They kissed which ignited a whole new set of emotions between them. They broke up as Scott scrunched up his face. "Sorry but your breath tastes like puke."
"Oh Scott, you say the sweetest things to a girl." They both started laughing when they knew that things were going to be alright.
