When You Say Nothing At All
A "Higher Ground" Fan Fic
By MissKate

A/N...I know the chapters are short, but like I say earlier, I like each scene to be a different chapter. Also, if you like this story, please R&R my other works!!

Prelude: First Impressions

From the first time she looked into his lovely eyes, she knew that she would love him forever. Nobody she had ever known had such a look of care and tenderness in their face as his. He was a bad boy when he first arrived, but that was what he was there for, to straighten up. He thought she was angry and only wanted him to show up the others. Little did he know, that the love of his life was right around the corner. They were just two naïve teenagers with harsh backgrounds, that were similar, but very diverse. Problems between the two left each other empty and needing to reach out for a friend's guidance. More often than not, it was Scott causing these rifts in the couple's relationship, by not wanted to hear about her past, yet needing to know. When all was out in the open, and secrets were abolished, Shelby and Scott knew they would be together forever.
