Back To Horizon
Shelby and Jules were in the car on the way back o Shelby's house.Shelby sang along to Janet Jackson's It's All For You . Jules looked out the window on the drivers side.She grinned.
Jules:Shelby.Who's mom drives a mustang?
Shelby:My dad drives one.
Jules:Well duhhhhhhhh!Aren't we like drivin in it!
Shelby:Who's?
Jules:Scott's!And if I am not mistaken isn't that him in the drivers seat?
Shelby:Om lord yes!
She stepped on the gas and speeded forward so he wouldn't see her.Jules grabbed the the back of the seat for support when her head was jerked forward by the sudden speed in the car.
Jules:Wow wow wow!Slow down!I am 17 and I do not want to be killed anytime soon.
Shelby:Well you shouldn't have told me he was there.I don't want to see him right now.
Jules:I got an idea lets play hide and go seek in the cars!
Shelby:Wha?
Jules:Well no one in their right mind is on this road besides us and him so we can race him!(Think mission Impossible 2)I dare you to cut infront of him.
Shelby:Hold on!
She shifted the gears and stepped on the gas and the engine reved up really loud.She got right in front of Scott.
Shelby:What did I win?
Jules:The fact that he is really ticked off!
Shelby:Julessss!
Scott got infront of them and Shelby got back infront of him.She was going about 90 miles an hour right then when she got back infront of him for the third time she flicked him off.He picked up the cell phone on his right and dialed her #.Shelby picked her cell phone up and Scott answered.
Scott:Not with you!
Shelby:That is so imature Scott!
Jules:No it isn't!
Jules couldn't help but laugh her head off at the smart remark.Shelby snapped the second gas petal down and then slammed on the brakes and while she had her foot on the brake she turned the steering wheel to the right.Scott pulled to the left and slammed on brakes too.He jumped out of his car.
Scott:What were you thinking?You could have killed me.
Jules was scared to death and she had started crying thinking she was going to die:And me!
Shelby:Not my fault!Just hold on Jules.
She stepped off the brake and put her foot on the gas and turned around to go back on the main highway.Jules stopped crying when they got home and Shelby's dad hadn't got back back from work yet and it was near eleven aclock at night.Jules looked at Scott's house he hadn't got home yet.
Jules:Where do you think he is?
Shelby:Probably at the party.
Jules:What party?
Shelby:Well I guess my dad won't be home till tomorrow so lets go and see what party.
Jules:Are there you know drugs and beer?
Shelby:Probably beer but not drugs.You have to be really careful since this party is right by the mall because there are guards and policeofficers on duty all the time by the dormsbecause it is right by the mall.
Jules:Oh so no one can be tempted to take any?
Shelby:Since there isn't any I don't think it will be a big problem.
Jules:Oh.
Stronger by Britney Spears comes on.
Ooh hey,yeah
They drove up a long driveway to a three story dorm.Jules had her mouth open because so many people were there.She saw Scott's car and Scott through a window on the second floor.He had a beer in his hand and his arm around another girl.Shelby didn't see it right away but she noticed Jules was inanother world.When she got out of the car her eyes never left the window.They walked in the door and they were greeted by a feew girls that used to knowShelby.And a lot of boys from the football team that knew her.She walked up the stairs to the second floor and looked around then walked down the hall and went into another room on that floor.About 30 people were in that one room.She walked around for a few minutes then came to a stop when she saw what she thought was Scott heading out the door.(Keep in mind that he isn't drunk he knows what he is doing and saying but he is drinking but not enough that he is drunk)She cocked her head to the side not knowing that infront of him was a girl her age and they were heading into a room not far away.She walked down the hall and up another set of steps.There was a door that had just closed.She walked up to it and hesitated.
Hush,don't stop
There's nothing you can
do or say,baby
I've had enough
I'm not your property
as from today,baby
You might think thatI won't
make it on my own
But now I'm......
She knocked on the door and heard muffled whispers coming from inside.
Shelby:They must be very busy.Too busy.
She walked away from the door and Scott got up from the bed and opened the door.He saw Shelby with her back to him walking down the stairs.He went back inside the room and put his shirt on.The girl looked up at him.
Nancy:Where are you going?
Scott:I'll be back.
Stronger thatn yesterday
Now it's nothing
but my way
My loneliness ain't killing
Me no more
I'm stronger
Scott quickened his pace when he lost her on the second floor.Shelby turned her back and opened a door to a closet and went in.Scott saw the door was just closing.He opened it and all he saw was darkness(It is really dark in the closet and it is big.)He walked in and closed the door behind him.He saw a flash of light reflecting off the ceiling.He knew Shelly always had a silver neclace with a peridot(August)for a charm on it.He reached out and felt her arm and he pulled her close.She pulled away.
Scott:Shelby.Please I am so sorry.
Shelby:For what may you be sorry for because umm we broke up and we really weren't even going out when we broke up.
Scott:Well it has to be hard for you I mean seeing me with someone else....
Shelby pushed him against a wall and kissed him real hard on the lips.She pulled back.
Shelby:It must be really hard to know I just kissed and you liked it but it meant nothing!
Than I ever thought that I
could be,baby
I used to go with the flow
Didn't really care bout' me
You might think that I can't
Take it,but you're wrong
'Cause now I'm.......
She opened the door and left him alone in the dark.She walked calmly down stairs till she heard a voice that she heard in the room with Scott.She turned around and knew that that was the girl.She grabbed a guys drink out of his hand and went up to her and "tripped" and the drink flew all over the girls hair and dress.Shelby just took a napkin and threw it in her face.
Shelby:Maybe it will help.
Stronger than yesterday
Now it's nothing
but my way
My loneliness ain't killing
Me no more
I'm stronger
Come on,now
Oh yeah
Shelby:Come on Juleslets go!
She paused for a second in the doorway.
Shelby:No we aren't.I am not leaving because of some little person that doesn't matter.
Jules:Did I miss something?
Shelby:No not really.I will be on the second floor.Later.
Shelby ran up the stairs to the room that was really crowded.She was happy.Not a fake kind of happy but the real thing.
Here I go, on my own
I don't need nobody,
better off alone
Here I go, on my own now
I don't need nobody,
not anybody
Here I go,alright,here I go
Stronger than yesterday
Now it's nothing
but my way
loneliness ain'tkilling
me no more
I,I'm stronger
An old friend of Shelby's walked up to her.The girl was Spanish she had curly black hair that reached halfway between her shoulders and elbows.She had honey brownish greenish eyes because her father was half american and half spanish.
Marie:Shelby!Why in the world did you do that to Nancy?
Shelby:OMG that was Nancy?Our Nancy the one that went to our school and was mine and your's best friend?I didn't notice her!She dyed her hair all the blonde instead of only highlighting it!I feel so stupid I mean her face looks the same but she doesn't have blonde streaks in her hair anymore only it is all blonde!Please kill me!
Marie:It is ok she thought it was a joke.I won't even ask what happened.Knowing you it is something twisted.It is so good to see you!
Shelby:It has only been like well when did I start Horizon?
Marie:September of last year.
Shelby:See not that long only like 9 months!OMG it has been a long time.I missed you so much!
Nancy walked up she has green eyes and is about Jules size and she is very tan:Hey Shel!Nice trick you pulled on me out there!
Shelby:Sorry it was a joke.I have totally missed you two!
Nancy:We waited for you to call!
Shelby:Well there is a rule that if you get in trouble you lose your phone privlages .
Nancy:I am guessing you lost them when you walked in the door?
Shelby:Yep I cussed Peter out for taking my bag away.
She had forgotten all about Scott and Nancy.It wasn't Nancy's fault anyway she had no idea who he really was.
Marie:So you guys want to leave this boring party and go to the movies?
Shelby:Umm I have a friend with me so we have to take her too.
Nancy:That is so ok.
Scott walked in the room and saw Shelby talking with Nancy.Scott walked up to Nancy and put his hand on her shoulder.
Nancy:Hey guys this is Scott I found him here.This is Shelby and Marie my best friends.
Scott:Really.Hey Shelby have we met somewhere before?I notice you from somewhere.
Shelby:No this is a first and the last.Lets go girls.
Marie:Bye Scott.
Nancy:Later.
Scott:Bye.
Jules was standing by the door waiting for Shelby.She saw her heading down the stairs with the girl she spilt beer on and some other spanish girl.
Shelby:Hey Jules.This is Nancy and Marie my best friends.
Jules:Hi.
Marie+Nancy:Hello.We are going to the movies.
Jules:We are?
Shelby:Yeah.Come on lets go.We can drive my car.
Nancy:Oooo do you have your dad's car?
Shelby:Yes!
Marie:Hey can we spin the tires?
Shelby:Nooo!Last time we did that your foot sliped off the brakes and we went flying down the street!
Nancy(picture her as Tara Reid):That was fun!
Marie:Yeah it was!We totally need to do that again!
Jules:I won't be in the car when you do!
Marie:Lets go.
Shelby:I am driving!
Nancy:Ok ok.
