I know that Auggie's characteristics seem out of place, but you'll see what happens when I'm done. Jules and Scott are not going to end up together. This isn't a S/S fanfic.

Kristina is a member of the RidgeRunners. She's at Horizon because she constantly got high and ditched school a lot. She would sneak out at night and get drunk and high to escape her family problems. She ran with the wrong group in school.

Ch. 2

One week has passed since Auggie had left Horizon. Scott and Peter found Juliette curled up on Auggie's bed. They both felt bad for Juliette, no girl should have to go through this. They knew that it had hurt Auggie to leave Juliette, but he had to. They tried to calm her down, but she refused them and cried even harder. When Sophie told the Cliffhangers that Auggie would no longer be at Horizon, no one knew what to say. They couldn't understand why he left. They felt bad for Juliette because they knew that she needed him as much as he needed her.

All the Cliffhangers were all sitting together. Daisy was the first to speak, "do you thing that she is going to sit with us today?"

Scott looked at Daisy and then looked away, he had gotten a letter from Auggie two days ago. He didn't know if he should let Jules see it. She had been acting weird lately. She was starting to get skinner than she already was. Scott opens the paper and reads it over again.

Sup Meat,
How have you been? How's Jules, is she gniod all right? I don't know what's going on htiw me, I've been going out a lot lately. What dluohs I do? I'm still kicking it with my crew. Don't tell Jules that I've written to you, she'll be mad at em again. Tell em she's still eating and not hurting herself. Scott, if she is, please help her. My brother is coming, I'll write to you soon, later Meat.

Scott looked over to Jules and she wasn't looking good. He got up and threw his food away and headed back to the boys cabin. Juliette watched him and she also got up and threw her food away. Instead of going to the girls cabin, she went to the lake to think.

California, San Diego.

Auggie wasn't registered for high school till next term. His parents were at work and his little sister was at school. Abe and Auggie told their friends to come over. The doorbell rang and Auggie answered it. It was Cynthia, "hey baby."

She leaned in and kissed him. He kissed her back and said, "how 'bout we go up to my room?"

She smiled at him and nodded her head yes. They walked upstairs and went to his room. She closed the door and made sure to lock the door. She stripped off all her clothing and laid down on his bed. He couldn't help, but run his eyes down her body. She was 5'2 and had brown eyes and hair and her hair had blonde streaks. He thought to himself ~ what the hell am I doing? I have a girlfriend and I love her. ~

Auggie's head started to get dizzy; he had gotten high before Cynthia had came over. He got up and struggled over to the door and said, "Put your clothes on, this isn't a good idea. I have a girlfriend and I love her."

She got up and turned him around and said, "What she doesn't know won't hurt her."

Auggie tried to shake the dizziness away, "fuck you! I love her and I ain't going to play her like that, I'm not Abe. Put your fucking clothes on and get out. This was a bad idea, I shouldn't have asked you to come up to my room."

"Then why did you ask me to come up here?" She demanded.

He looked her in the eye and said, "cause I just wanted to talk to you, get to know you."

She couldn't believe what she was hearing. No guy had ever tried to get to know her, usually when some guy ask her to go to a room with them, he would fuck her then leave. So instead she said to him, "I'm sorry."

She walked over to her clothes and Auggie turned around. She looked back to him and saw that he had his back to her. She put her clothes back on and said, "all right, you can turn around now."

Auggie unlocked the door and then turned around. She walked out the door without looking at him. He watched her leave then slammed his door shut. She walked downstairs and bumped into Abe. He smirked at her and said, "So how was my brother?"

"Fuck you Abe, I'm out. I rather be at school than put up with this shit. You didn't tell me he had a girlfriend!"

She pushed passed him and headed for the door. He ran around her and got to the door before she got there and said, "Who cares if he has a girlfriend, it never stopped you before. Why do you care now? You're a fucking whore and you know that!"

"Fuck you Abe, I ain't a whore, your crew forced yourselves on me. I care cause this isn't a good idea, just let out, please."

Her eyes started filling up with tears. He got out of her way and she ran out the door. He yelled after her, "fine puta, run the fuck away! I'll deal with your ass later!"

He slammed the door and Auggie walked down the stairs, "what the hell was that all about? Where's Cynthia?"

Abe looked at him and said, "Who gives a shit where she is. That bitch decided to go to school. She was bitching about how she couldn't get any from you. Anyways, lets go smoke some more weed and drink all that we can."

Auggie followed Abe down to the basement where the rest of the crew was. He sat down next to Jay and grabbed a shot of Tequila, then he pick up a bud and started smoking it.

Horizon.

Everyone was in class now. Sophie was standing in front of the class with Roger going over the class assignment. Juliette wasn't even bothering to listen. Peter knocked on the door then entered. "Juliette I need to talk to you right now."

She got up and picked up her stuff and followed Peter to his office. Peter sat down behind his desk. She sat down on the couch that he had in his office and said, "Peter what did you need to talk to me about?"

He smiled at Juliette and said, "well Jules, you just got a letter from a certain someone."

When Peter said that, Juliette sat up suddenly and looked at him with hope in her eyes. He smiled and got up. He handed her the letter and said, "I let you read it in private. I'll be back in a couple of minutes."

He left; she smiled down at the letter. She opened the letter her excitement growing.

Hey Jules,
How's my girl? My sister is helping me write this letter to you, she says that you're beautiful. Ha, ha, ha, I told her that you're HOT! Jules, I was listening to this and it made me think of you it's called My Everything by 98 Degrees. Well here are the lyrics:

The loneliness of nights so long

The search for strength to carry on

My every hope had seemed to die

My eyes had no more tears to cry

Then like the sun shined from up above

You surrounded me with your endless love

And all the things I couldn't see

Are now so clear to me Chorus

You are my everything

Nothing your love won't bring

My life is yours alone

The only love I've ever known

Your spirit pulls me through

When nothing else will do

Every night I pray on bended knee

That you will always be

My everything Verse

Now all my hopes and all my dreams

Are suddenly reality

You've opened up my heart to feel

The kind of love that's truly real

A guiding light that'll never fade

There's not a thing in life that I would ever trade

For the love you give and won't let go

I hope you'll always know Chorus Bridge

You're the breath of life in me

The only one that sets me free

And you have made my soul complete

For all time

For all time

So what did you think? You like? Jules, I'm sorry that I didn't say goodbye. I got scared, what kind of boyfriend gets scared to talk to his girlfriend? I'll tell you, me, that's who. Do you forgive me? I miss holding you in my arms and kissing your lips. Your body against mine.okay, my sister is looking at me like I'm crazy. So enough about me, are you eating good? Please tell me you are Jules. Look, why don't you ask Peter if can call me then we can really talk. Well I got to go Jules, I love you and take care of yourself baby. Love ya lots.
Love Always,
Auggie P.S. My number is (619) 690-8503

At that moment Peter came in and said, "so what did Auggie say to you?"

Juliette smiled at Peter and said, "he said that he misses me and sorry for not saying goodbye to me when he had the chance. He also asked me to ask you if I could call him at home. Is it all right if I call him Peter?"

Peter smiled at Jules and said, "sure Jules. Is it all right if I stay?"

"Sure Peter." Peter handed her the phone and she dialed the number that he gave her.

Back in California, San Diego.

Ring, Ring, Ring. Auggie got up and headed up the stairs toward the phone. He picked it up and said, "Hello?"

"May I please speak to Auggie?"

"And who am I talking to?

"Jules from Mount Horizon."

"Jules, is that you baby?"

"Hey Aug, how are you doing? Are you staying out of trouble? Do you miss me? Huh, well do you?"

"Jules, baby, calm down Ya, I miss you. Do you miss me?"

"Oh course I miss you. Peter wants to talk to you."

Auggie was trying hard to pay attention, but he was wasted. He was hoping that when he talked his words weren't slurring.

"Aug? Aug, it's me Peter. Are you there?"

"Hey Peter, what's up? Jules said that you wanted to talk to me, what's up?"

"I just wanted to say hi and see how you're doing."

"I'm doing good. There's nothing really to do around here, just kick back and chill."

"All right, I better let Jules talk to you again before she kills me."

Auggie smiled. He went upstairs to his room to talk to her privately. Peter handed Jules the phone and left.

"Hey Aug, so what do you want to talk about?"

"Anything baby, you tell me."

"All right, do you know what's up with Scott? He's been giving Shelby the cold shoulder and he refuses to talk to her."

"I don't know if I should tell you Jules."

"Come on honey, please."

"Aiight, but don't tell Scott that I told you. Remember the day that I left?"

"Yeah, like I could forget that day. What about it?"

"Well remember when he looked at his watch? Well he went to meet some girl that he has been talking to. She's with RidgeRunners; we meet her on the basketball courts. Scott had found out that Shelby was messing with some dude from the Tracker team. He didn't know what to do, after all he came back for her. One moth after the morp, she's with some other guy. He's planning on breaking up with her after he catches her in the act."

"I can't believe her. I thought she loves him? She's been sneaking off every night saying that she's meeting up with Scott. She said that they made up and it was just a show."

"Well you should ask Scott if he's been meeting up with her and if not, tell him. He doesn't deserve this, no one does. In fact, I have to tell you something Jules. There's a girl named Cynthia and she's cool and all."

"Auggie stop. Are you breaking up with me?"

He could hear the hurt in her voice. Even though he wasn't there, he knew that she was starting to cry.

"Baby, don't cry. I'm not breaking up with you. I just have to tell you something important. Please don't tell Peter anything aiight?"

"All right, tell me sweetie."

"Well my first night here, my brother took me out to see the old crew. That's where I met her. We all ended up drinking and just getting to know each other. So far, the whole the week, she's the one that I can talk to around here. She's been nice and shit, but today she tried to have sex with me. I turned her down and she was surprised and all, but she left She also kissed me and I kissed her back, it was all a mistake."

"Why are you telling me all this?"

"Cause I want you to know everything. I am not going to hide anything from you, especially a girl. I ain't that type of guy."

"All right, is there anything else you need to tell me?"

Auggie started to tell her about him doing things with his crew, but stopped himself.

"Naw Jules, there's nothing else."

"All right, well I have to get back to class, I love you honey."

"Wait Jules, my parents said that you, Peter and Scott could come down here and see me. Isn't that great? Well talk to Peter about it aiight. I miss you so much, I miss rubbing my hands all over you."

"Aug, stop it, your making me blush. That is great, I'll ask Peter. When would it be a perfect time to go down there?"

"They said in two weeks, talk to him okay? I'll keep writing to you."

"All right, love you honey, bye."

"Bye."

They both hanged up the phone at the same time.

Back at Horizon.

Juliette squealed in happiness. Peter rushed in and said, "What's wrong Jules? Is everything all right?"

"Everything is better than all right. My boyfriend is missing me as much as I'm missing him. He even said that Scott, you and me could come visit him, can we? Please, I miss my boyfriend."

He looked at her and smiled. He was happy that Jules was happy again. "Sure, when did he say that we could come up?"

"In two weeks, I have to tell Scott."

Juliette squealed again and ran out of Peter's office. Peter watched her run out and smiled. He honestly thought this would help bring Jules back to her happy self.

In the lodge.

Juliette ran over to Scott and gave him a big hug. He was surprised when she hugged him. The Cliffhangers watched with interest and Daisy looked at Shelby. Shelby was starting to fume. No man was allowed to touch her man. When Juliette pulled away from him, she said, "guess who sent me a letter and whom I just talked to right now."

"Auggie, really? That's great. What did he say?"

"That we could go up there and visit him. Peter even said yes. In two weeks were going to California. Oh yeah, Scott have you been meeting up with Shelby at night?"

"No, why do you ask?"

"Well then, we need to talk. What Auggie said can wait."

Shelby and Daisy walked up to the two of them Scott looked at Shelby and Daisy and said, "what do you two want?"

Daisy looked at Shelby and answered before she could. "Well we wanted to see how Jules was doing."

Juliette looked at Daisy and Shelby suspiciously. "I'm doing all right, in fact Scott was coming with me to get something to eat. I'm starving."

Juliette dragged Scott away from Shelby and Daisy and they headed to the cafeteria. Shelby felt her mouth drop, but Daisy helped her close it. She was as shocked as Shelby. "She's hungry? Now that's something that I never thought I'd hear."

Shelby thought to herself. ~Could she be the girl that I've been hearing about? I thought Jules was crazy about Auggie, what the hell is going on? ~

Daisy grabbed Shelby and they grabbed something to eat and sat with the Cliffhangers. Ezra looked up from his food and said, "Do you know what's up with Scott and Jules?"

Shelby sat down and asked, "Why do you ask?"

"Well they've been sitting at the table over there and talking really quietly. I thought Jules was still hung down about Auggie."

Shelby looked over to them and couldn't take it anymore. She got up and walked over to the table they were sitting at. They looked up and Juliette said, "Hey Shelby what's up?"

Shelby picked Juliette up and punched her. Scott was shocked. Shelby jumped on top of Jules and started punching her. Juliette flipped Shelby over and then started punching her. Scott couldn't take it anymore; he pulled Juliette off of Shelby while Daisy pulled Shelby away. They were both bleeding, Peter ran in and said, "What is going on in here?"

David had a big smirk on his face and answered, "Shelby attacked Juliette. To think, I thought I might not see any action around here. Boy was I wrong."

Peter gave David a look and then he looked at both girls and said, "My office now!"

Both girls walked passed Peter to his office. He shook his head and thought ~this better not be over Scott. Especially since Jules is with Auggie and Scott is with Shelby~ Peter looked over to Scott and said, "I get the feeling this is going to involve you, so come with me."

Scott nodded his head to Peter and followed him to his office. The girls were already sitting down giving each other dirty looks. Peter got behind his desk while Scott took a seat on the couch. Peter looked at both girls and said, "Why were you two fighting again?"

Shelby got up and pointed at Juliette yelling, "Queenie was putting the moves on my boyfriend!"

Juliette got up and yelled back at her, "I am not putting the moves on Scott. I was only talking to him about my boyfriend. If you haven't forgotten I'm with Auggie!"

Shelby pushed Juliette and she pushed Shelby back. Peter spoke up, "Knock it off, the both of you. Since you two are not getting along, you will go on a buddy hike tomorrow, but until then you are going to spend time with Sophie."

Sophie walked in and the two girls looked at her. "All right ladies, put on some sweats, were going to do some conditioning."

Both girls groaned and Scott couldn't help, but let a chuckle out. Peter looked at Scott and said, "Do you want to join them?"

Scott shook his head no. The girls followed Sophie out of Peter's office. Scott looked over to Peter and said, "Can I go now?"

"Peter rubbed his temples and shook his head yes. Scott got up and headed over to the guys cabin. On his way there he saw the girls running with Sophie. He knew that Jules was probably complaining and Shelby was bitching at her.

"Scott, Scott! Wait up!"

Scott turned to the voice and smiled. A Latino girl about 5'3 with brown hair and eyes came running up to him. She stopped in front of him and said, "hey Scott how have you been? I haven't seen you in a while."

Scott kept smiling and responded, "hey Kris, I've been good. I've been busy and I meant to go see you today. Sorry about that."

Shelby and Juliette.

Sophie looked at both girls and said, "all right, that's enough for today. At 10:00a.m we'll be leaving."

After she said that she left the girls to be alone together. Shelby looked over to Scott and saw him talking to some girl. She felt her blood start to boil. Shelby started walking over to the two, but Juliette grabbed her and said, "Don't Shelby, you're going to get in more trouble. Why don't you just talk to him and find out what's going between you two. I know that it's not him that you're seeing every night."

Shelby looked at Juliette in surprised. Did Juliette really know what she was doing at night? She pulled her arm away from Juliette and ran to the girls cabin. Juliette shook her head and walked over to Scott and Kristina.

Scott and Kristina.

Kristina started laughing and soon Scott joined her. Juliette came up to the two and said, "hey Scott, are you going to introduce me to your friend?"

Kristina looked at Juliette and smiled. "You must be Juliette, I'm Kristina. I have heard so much about you from Auggie. He talked about you so much. I'm sorry that he had to leave. He is a really nice guy."

Juliette smiled and nodded her head. She felt her eyes welling up with tears. She turned her head and said, "I miss him so much. I'm sorry to drop in on you two like this."

Juliette turned around to leave, but Scott stopped her. Kristina smiled at Scott's actions. He made Juliette look at him. When he saw the tears start to fall from her eyes, he wiped them away and said, "Jules, in two weeks you'll see Auggie. Be strong, he would want you to."

Juliette pulled her face away from him and nodded her head. She wiped the rest of her tears away and put a smile on her face. Scott and Kristina smiled when she did that.

Back in California, San Diego.

Auggie walked back downstairs and hung up the phone. He looked over to the basement down and thought about going back down there and drinking as much as he can. He shook his head again, feeling the dizziness trying to take over. He headed back up the stairs to sleep everything off. When he got to his room, he flopped down on his bed. He started to drift to sleep thinking of Jules. ~Jules, what am I doing? Why am I turning to my old crew? I never did the shit that I'm doing now. I need you, I need you so much. ~

So, what did you think? Was it good or am I still confusing you? As you can tell, there is a lot of drama going on between Scott and Shelby. Will Kristina take Shelby's place in Scott's heart or will Shelby prevent that from happening. Is Auggie going to keeping doing what he's doing or try to stop?

Next chapter: Shelby and Juliette go on their buddy hike. Auggie thinks about everything he has learned and is trying to decide if he should stop. Scott and Kristina take the time to get to know one another even more and the rest of Cliffhangers are watching them. Please Review!!!!!
