Disclaimer: I own Bella…. that's it!!!!
About five minutes outside of Horizon, Bella pulled over. Tears streamed down her face as she rested her head upon the steering wheel and sobbed. 'What have I done' she thought to herself. A moment flashed before her eyes where she saw Scott's face. Any other time, that would be a welcomed vision, but the look in his eyes was indescribable. His crystal blue eyes seemed to be pooled with sorrow, hate, and disappointment all in Bella. She had ruined the best friendship she had over something she should have taken care of herself, but she knew she was not strong enough for that. Taking a few deep breaths, Bella calmed herself and drove back to her hotel. She resolved to visit Scott tomorrow; maybe he wouldn't hate her as much then.
On the grounds of Horizon, Scott stood staring at the trail of dust, which streamed behind Bella's car. Shelby placed a hand on Scott's shoulder muttering how 'sorry she was' and how he should 'really just leave it alone for now' and that 'she will come back on her own, when the time is right.' Scott shrugged her hand off and turned to leave.
"Scott," Shelby hollered silently pleading for him to answer her. To give her one sign that he was all right.
"Not now, Shelby…not now,"
Without another word, he sprinted towards the woods. Jogging has always helped him relax and calm down. The only sound audible by another human being was his footsteps on the soft earth, but inside his head, there were a whirlwind of sounds and voices.
"It isn't your fault."… "No," she said, "I got you all wet."… Her laugh - it was genuine and throaty… "I thought everything was okay."
Scott quickened his pace. "About a week after you left…" He thought back to her eyes filled with emotion and shame. He ran faster at the though of 'him' touching her.
"I'm pregnant," She was so pure before, so…"Honest," That is exactly what she was honest, and loving and 'he' had no right to destroy Bella, no right!
At his last thought, his knee gave way and Scott toppled to the ground. He quickly extended his arms so he wouldn't hurt himself. He collapsed, just laying there awhile, breathing heavily. Slowly he pushed himself off the dirt-covered path and brushed himself off. It was starting to get dark and he knew that he should get back soon or else he would be in for it, if he weren't already.
Neither one of them slept well that night, both tossing and turning at the thought of the day's events. Bella couldn't take it anymore, she got dressed. She had to see him now; she could not wait until the morning.
She cut the engine to her car and slowly made her way up the path towards Horizon. The same Horizon that had taken her best friend away, the only friend that she has ever trusted. 'He shouldn't be here,' she thought. 'I should have helped him, I should have been a better friend.' After awhile, she approached Scott's cabin. Bending down, she picked up a handful of pebbles and tossed them so they lightly tapped the window. Just as she was about to give up a figure emerged at the door.
"Is there something I can help you with?" The figure stepped forward, it wasn't Scott. It wasn't anyone she had met that day.
"I'm sorry, I thought this was Scott Barringer's cabin, but it isn't so sorry to disturb you," with that she turned on her heel only for her elbow to be caught as the figure swung her around.
"Well now, I didn't say you had to leave. It isn't every night that a pretty little thing like you comes knocking on my window late at night."
The figure stepped closer and drew her to him. A small squeal of protest escaped her lips before his lips came smashing down on top of hers. With her free hand, Bella clawed at his chest trying to let him release her.
He pulled away slowly. Bella's eyes were filled with fear and tears. "What do you want with Barringer anyway? I am much more fun, trust me." He drew her to him as his lips once more crashed down upon hers.
"MmmmmmmmmmmNO!" she said once she could speak through there lips touching. She had bit his to make him release her.
"Oh you little bitch. You want to play rough do you? Fine! Have it your way." He grabbed her hair and began to drag her in the direction of the docks.
"Hey," a voice said, startling the man carrying Bella. The man spun around to come face to face with Auggie. "What are you doing with Barringer's girl man?"
"None of your goddamn business asshole, so shove of will you?" The man pushed Auggie hard and he fell to the ground all the while Bella was slung over the man's shoulder.
"That's it," Auggie muttered before launching at the man. He wasn't going to let him hurt 'Meat's' best friend, there was no way.
As Auggie lunged at the man, Bella flew off his shoulder, her head slamming into the ground. The last sound she heard was Auggie asking her repeatedly if she was all right.
