Thank you so much keke for telling me. I really didn't know about it. I hope you still love my story, there's more trouble after.

To the other reviewer : In my imagination Shelby's mother could be like that cause she didn't want to believe Shelby when she told her about her step dad molesting her. It took time before the mother believed her anddid something.

CHAPTER 24

Sc : Hello dad it's me.

Elaine : Hello Scotty, your dad's not at home at the moment but I am.

Shelby understood it wasn't his dad talking to him as she saw Scott's face turning from pink to almost white.

Sc : I guess I'm lucky you're home, right ?

Elaine : Yeah of course you are. How are you doing Scotty.

Sc : Fine. Look tell my dad I called him and I'll call him later when he'll be back.

Elaine : No, wait ! Scotty did you respect our deal ?

Sc (knowing what she was talking about but pretending he didn't) : What deal ?

Elaine : Don't act stupid Scotty, you know, THE DEAL. You promised me not to be with another girl and…

Sc (getting angry) : No, you said that. I Never agreed to that.

Elaine :Come on Scotty, you know I love you and you know you love me too. I could see it in your eyes. You wanted me as much as…

Sc : Stop it, it's not true and you know it. By the way what you saw in my eyes was disgust.

Elaine : Scotty you know that I love you, why are you saying such lies about me ? You wanted that to happen !

Sc : No you're wrong I never asked for that.

Elaine : Why didn't you push me away then.

Sc : I tried each night but you were too strong for me and I couldn't. You knew I didn't want that.

Elaine : Scotty you didn't know yourself what you wanted, you were high all the time.

Sc (yelling) : Right I was high and you know why. Because living under the same roof as you has been complete hell and I'm glad I'm not there anymore.

Shelby was sad for him and wanted to hug him but she preferred to wait for him to be done with this phone call.

Elaine : Let's talk about this new girlfriend you must have.

Sc : Leave her out of this.

Elaine : So you do have one.

Sc : Stop it. I didn't say that.

Scott knew she was right and she was able to find the answers by herself. He was weak in front of her and even by the phone. Peter had joined them but they hadn't seen him come. He was standing behind Shelby, and Scott was way too concentrated to notice his presence.

Elaine : Scotty what do you think about me visiting you here, alone. We could…

Sc (still yelling) : Don't even think about it. I hate you bitch ! Get out off my life. Don't you think you destroyed it enough ? I don't wanna talk to you anymore. NEVER. Just tell my dad I called and I have something important to tell him.

Elaine : But Scotty you…

Scott hung up the phone and dropped on his knees and began to cry. Shelby rushed to him for a big hug and try to console him and Peter came around.

P : What's going on Scott ?

S : We both decided to call our family as you asked us to do to tell them the big news. It was even worst than we expected.

P : I guess his dad wasn't home but Elaine was and she picked up the phone and tried to make him feel guilty once again.

Sc (crying) : Yeah she did and she succeeded.

P : Don't say that Scott you know it's wrong. You don't have anything to be ashamed of or guilty about, you didn't do anything wrong. What about your call Shelby ?

S : My mom doesn't want to speak to me anymore.

P : Oh, I'm really sorry.

S : Don't be, that's fine with me. I don't wanna hear that bitch anymore ! She said I screwed up everything and blah blah blah

P : I know you're angry but pay attention to your language, please.

S : Yeah right I almost forgot about that. So am I supposed to call this 'woman'.

P : She's your mother.

S : Not anymore !

P : Ok let's go eat and we'll talk about this tonight at group and don't forget to finish your homework. Try not to focus on these phone calls even if it's hard and think about the relaxation Sophie will do with you this afternoon. Shelby don't forget that you can't be under too much stress and pressure regarding your state.

S :Right, then I shouldn't have called my mom.

P : No you had to. She has the right to be aware of the situation and anything happening to you.

S : I won't call her again now that she's aware of the situation.

Scott was crying a bit less and still in Shelby's arms. Peter didn't want to separate them cause they both needed support and Peter knew that.

P : it's time to go to lunch before there's nothing left for you.

Sc : I'm not hungry.

S : Me neither.

P : You both have to eat. Shelby you're pregnant and Scott you have to eat to grow up and stay good looking.

Sc : That's very funny Peter !

They all got up and walked outside. Peter lead them to the cafeteria and then went in the lodge where Sophie was before they both went back to his office. Once they arrived inside the cafeteria everybody starred at them and made them places so they could sit near them. They didn't go to pick a tray and food so Juliette and Daisy proposed to go and grab food for Shelby and Scott. They came back a few seconds later with the food and they all started to ask questions about what happened to make then look so terribly sad and down.

Peter went back with Sophie in the cafeteria and offered the cliffhangers to have an hour relaxation right now.

D : Are you serious ?

P : Sure. If everyone agree than it's fine with me and with Sophie as well.

Sophie nodded.

A : Yeah, great.

Scott and Shelby nodded in agreement.

J : Yipee.

E : Well that's a good news !

Then all went outside ready for relaxation. Scott and Shelby were feeling better but Scott knew he'll have to call his dad later but not today. He had enough emotions for today so it's time for relaxation. Sophie asked them to lie down in a circle on the grass and she stood up in the center. When she began talking they all began to smile and Sophie told them she was going to stop this entire thing if they kept on smiling and laughing.

So : Imagine you're in a place you love, in peace. Your body's light, you're tired.

E : Right I'm tired.

A : Shut up Ezra !

J : Come on guys we need relaxation.

D : Be less selfish and think about Shelby and Scott who really need this.

E : Go on and I'm about to feel all my body relaxed, if you understand what I mean.

All the guys began to laugh.

So : If you don't stop talking and laughing I'll stop this relaxation thing !

They all nodded to continue and promised not to open their mouth again.

So : Great ! Close your eyes !

Peter came near them to watch the entire relaxation session and to look at Sophie. He was there cause he had something to tell to someone. Something big. But he didn't want to interrupt so he waited for them to finish.
