To Die For

I DON'T OWN ANYTHING!

Chapter 6

Peter shot from him office, he sprinted towards the boys' room when Sophie spotted him and started to call after him. Finally Peter heard his name and turned toward her.

"Peter, where are you going?"

"Dr. Arkus called!"

"Is Shelby alright?" She asked nervously

"She's fine, but the results are in from the blood test!" Peter said getting antsy, he wanted to tell the kids, "Listen, get the Cliffhanger girls and tell them to meet me in the lounge."

"Isn't it a little early to get them up?"

"I promised Scott!" was all he said as he began running again towards the boys' dorm

Sophie just stood there "Well, what are the results?" She yelled behind him but he just kept running, so she did the same

Lounge

Peter stood in front of a tired Cliffhanger group with a sullen look on his face. When he continued to just stand there, the group started to get nervous.

"What's going on?" Scott asked, "Is Shelby ok?"

"Well Scott…the doctor just called."

"What happened Peter?" All at once, Scott looked like he would cry, hit something, and pass out

"The results are in."

Scott calmed down when he realized it wasn't Shelby, then when the information sunk in, his faced knotted with nervousness, "Is there a match?" He asked slowly

"Well…"

"Peter, is there a match?" He was getting annoyed

"Yes Scott, yes there is a match!" Peter was excited

"Well, who is it?" Daisy finally got a word in

Peter just continued to smile then turned to look at Scott but didn't say anything

"Well, who is it?" Scott asked

Peter laughed and Daisy rolled her eyes, "It's you stupid." She said

Scott looked at her, eyebrows furrowed, then back to Peter who just smiled and raised his eyebrow in confirmation.

Scott's mouth opened in amazement, then turned into a smile, he jumped up and hugged everyone, even David who tried to resist.

When he was finished he turned to Peter, "You're serious, like not lying or anything?"

"Serious." Peter smiled

"When can we do it?"

"First we just have to get your father's consent, then you and Shelby both need to take a blood test to make sure you're not sick or anything, and then we'll schedule it."

"Can't we do that all today?"

"We can try, the sooner Shelby gets her liver out and a healthy one in, the better."

"Let's go call my father."

"It's early Scott."

"What time is it?"

"6:15"

"He'll be up; he wakes up at 5:30 every morning."

Peter thought for a minute, "Ok, let's go."

As they walked to Peter's office, Scott became more and more nervous; he hadn't talked to his dad since the night of the Morp

When they got to Peter's office, Peter picked up the phone, "Ready?"

"Not really, but go ahead."

Peter put down the phone, "What's wrong?"

"Just nervous, not a big deal."

"Don't worry; it's going to be fine."

"Yea, so go ahead."

"Ok," Peter said and picked the phone up and dialed, after a minute he started to talk, "Hello, Mr. Barringer?"

"Yes, this is Peter Scarbrow from Mt. Horizon…no he's fine…actually, he wanted to talk to you about something…ok, here he is."

He handed Scott the phone, "Hey dad."

"Scott, what's going on?"

"Umm, I need you to come up here."

"Why, what happened?"

"Do you remember Shelby?"

"Yea, what about her?" he never liked Shelby

"Well, she's sick, really sick, she has liver disease actually."

"And?"

"And she needs a transplant, so we did blood tests here, and it turns out I am a match."

"So what?"

"What do you mean so what?"

"Scott what do you think I'm going to let you risk your life for some girl?"

"It's not just some girl, I love her."

"You don't know what love is."

"Yes I do, Shelby changed my life, she saved me."

"Well, I'm sorry, I don't agree."

"You wouldn't."

"Look, I don't have time for this, the answer is no." He said and hung up, leaving Scott to hold a dead phone.

Peter looked upset, "What happened?"

"He won't agree to the surgery, what are we going to do?"

"Relax Scott, we'll let him calm down, then I'll try and talk to him. I'm sure he's just upset."

"This can't be happening, he's got to agree, you've got to make him agree!"

"I'll do everything I can."
