A*N Okay well im going to finsh this story, and sorry about the hold up, i've had a bad week and stuff, so i forgot to post. I promise the next chapter should be up soon. And now i got the idea from a book called *the dance* i thought i should say that:::) Hope you guys like this chapter. Please review!


* Why do they keep looking at me?" Shelby kept asking herself. * What if Rebecca is mad at me for running against me? Wait, what if she knows i have a good chance!* It had to be something, it couldn't be me, they were looking at Daisy and Ezra.* Shelby pushed her thoughts aside for awhile.
"So what do you guys think?" Shelby asked. Looking at Daisy and Ezra, they finally lowered their laughter. " Are you gonna vote for me?"

Yeah, why not. You deserve it more then the barbie over there." Daisy answered simply looking over at a giggling Rebecca." I happen to know that the soccer team has already filled the balot with your name marked, you know our teammates- down with the establishment!" she said making a fist in the air. Shelby laughed but stop when she noticed the look in Ezra's eyes, and knew it wasn't good. "What?" she asked hesitantly.

" I hear your handing out favors for votes." he smirked.


* Uh- oh* Shelby thought. " Don't believe everything you hear, freakin." Shelby smirked back, with her arms crossed around her lower stomach.

" Oh no, your not going to lowball me, Merrick." Ezra shook his head." Besides you owe me."

" Since when?" she asked, she must of forgot.

" Since you had that kid in 8th grade stalking you. We were at lunch and he came to sit at the table, you walked over and noticed. I was right behind you, and you dumped your plate of food on his lap. Then blamed it on me. You said i tripped you. You whispered im sorry, help! So i told him it was me, and that he should back off, before he got my soda in his lap too." ezra said remembering that day.

Shelby started laughing remembering the expression on the guys face. She felt bad, but he creeped her out.

Daissy couldn't hold it in. She could just picture it. " Thats horrible!" she exclaimed. But we knew she was amused. They finally calmed down.

" okay so what do i have to do for you to vote for me?" she asked.

" Are you serious, this is going to take time to think up, this opportunity cant be taken lightly." he rubbed his palms together.

" Whatever," Shelby said rolling her eyes. " Just don't think im going to do something childish, im not putting a whoopie cousin underneath Mrs. Keith's chair."

Ezra's jaw dropped. " Im done with that, that was all the way in 7th grade!" he informed.

" Yeah hes up to hand buzzers" Daisy jumped in the conversation.

" Excuse me? Thats your area." he smiled.

" How about this, you have to steal Laurens p.e shoes, and put in some high heels!" he said, grinning. He knew she didn't like messing with Lauren, but he found it entertaining when she did.


" Fine with me!" she said smirking. *That's another vote* " That would be interesting to see her running."

Ezra stuck out his hand, Shelby did the same, they shook on it.

" on the campaign trial?" said a voice by her. Shelby looked up to see the one and only Rebecca, clutching Scott's hand. As her stomach got butterflies in it, she lost all her confidence that she had a few moments ago. Just standing next to Rebecca in her Gucci dress, perfect make-up, hair. Made Shelby feel like she was five trying to play a grown-ups game.

" Yeah.." she said finally finding her stuttering voice. " Since i started late......" she trailed off, looking at Ezra for help. He finally noticed her desperation and butted in.

" You better watch out, rebecca," Ezra said. Putting his arm on Shelby's shoulder. " shes doing great, better watch your back."

Rebecca looked at a nervous Shelby and smiled. " I don't mind, i like compettion," she said. " I think its cute, you decided to run against me. You think you have a chance, thats cute in a dorky way." rebecca smiled evily. Shelby hated being called names.

" Yeah, your pretty pathetic yourself. Your not the only girl here that has the potiental to win, so if i were you, i would shut your mouth, before you say something you'll regret later, got it princess?" Shelby asked angry, but felt good about sticking up for herself. It went silent for a moment.

Rebecca didn't know what to say. No one has ever said something like that to her. Scott looked at Shelby and noticed how pretty she is when she gets mad.

Rebecca eyed Shelby, who just stood there keeping a serious face. Rebecca stalked off, pulling Scott with her.

Shelby watched them walk off, and noticed Scott turn around and wave back with a warm smile on his face.

Shelby forced a smile, but inside she was crumbling. After the way Rebecca was clinging to Scott, she had a feeling she wouldn't be seeing him the rest of the night.

Why was life so unfair? she's been dreaming about Scott ever since 9th grade. She cherrished every little small, passing conversation she had wit him-- in the halls sometimes, when he needed the answer to a question, anything she could recall him saying a word, she loved.

All she wanted was one dance! That was all she was asking for. But thanks to Rebecca Vaughn, it was impossible to get it. * Unless i win* Shelby thought, glaring at Rebeccas back. * I have to win*
