Never Let Go
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the original Higher Ground characters. But Alexis, Luke, Mark, Trevor, Kelly, and anyone else that I add in later chapters do.
"Get a grip Luke-you too Kelly. Neither of you have a chance with them. So get over it." Mark continued.
"Shut up Mark," Kelly half said-half yelled. "I will get Scott back if it's the last thing that I do. It makes me sick to see him with that loser girlfriend of his. She is no competition to me."
"Sure, Kel, whatever you say," Alexis chuckled.
~~~~~Back at Scott's house~~~~~
Scott and Shelby had just walked in the door when Elaine came running up to them.
"Where have you two been? The movie was over a long time ago," she yelled.
"Chill, Elaine. We ditched the movie and met up with some old friends." Scott said.
"Oh, and by friends do you mean the old drug users you used to hang out with?" she continued.
"Maybe," he said, loving that she was mad.
"Scott, you know where that got you last time," she pointed out.
"Yeah, I do," he said, smiling at Shelby and grabbing her hand. "We're gonna go upstairs. Is that alright Mommy Dearest?" he mocked.
"You know what Scott? I am getting really tired of your attitude towards me. I am your stepmother."
"Don't remind me," he said, leading Shelby up the stairs and into his room.
"Scott, you're just making things worse between you and Elaine. I hate to say it, but…"
"But what, Shelby? Are you saying that it's my fault for what happened now? Are you gonna turn your back on me too?" he half screamed at her, sitting down on the corner of his bed.
"No, of course not Scott. And please don't snap at me. I'm just saying that I think you should be careful of what you say to her," she continued, sitting down beside him. "She is one messed-up woman."
"Even more messed up than us?" he chuckled.
"Much," she said grabbing his hand. It's getting kind of late, I should get I bed."
"Bed, Shel? Since when have you gone to bed when you're supposed to?" he grinned. "I know that you haven't forgotten how we snuck out after lights-out at Horizon."
"You're right, Scott, I haven't. But this isn't Horizon. If you're parents catch us-well, it wouldn't be pretty."
"It's not like you to be scared so easily." He couldn't help but laugh at her 'i'm so superior' face.
"I'm not scared, Scott. But I don't want to mess this up," she said, getting up and walking to the door.
"Hey, Shel. Hold on a minute," he said, jumping up and grabbing her arm.
"What?"
"Just this," he said, raising her face up to his and kissing her softly. "Good night, Shel."
"Good night, Scott." She said, kissing him back and them walking out of his room toward hers.
Kind of corny, right? I know it sounds stupid, but I've hit major writer's block. I don't know where to go with this story. I was planning on having like at least 30 chapters, but I don't think that will happen. I might wrap it up in another few chapters. It's up to you- if you want a lot more chapters, PLEASE help me out! If you give an idea that I use, I will give you credit if you want me to. Just PLEASE e-mail me or review and tell me your idea. You would be doing me a big favor! Thanx bunches!!!!!!!!!!
