Chapter 9 Everything I do

Shelby had isolated herself in the girl's cabin for three days now. She truly loved Scott.

But she was scared. That maybe one day he'd look back and regret his choice. Or that Walt

would find her and hurt Scott. Just then, Daisy burst into Shelby's thoughts.

"What?" Shelby asked.

"You have to come see this." Daisy grabbed her hand.

"But I don't want to go anywhere." Shelby replied.

"You have to see this. Trust me You need to see this." Daisy pulled her out of the room

and dragged her to the lodge. Shelby and Daisy walked in and saw a stage set up. With speakers

and a microphone. Everyone was there. Peter, Sophie, Juliet, Auggie, Ezra, David, and Daisy.

But no Scott.

"What's going on?" Shelby asked. But no one answered. Because Scott had just walked on

stage.

"Hi everyone! The song I'm about to sing is called 'Everything I do', and it's by Bryan

Adams. This song is for the love of my life. And the most beautiful girl In the world. Shelby

merrick this is for you. I love you." Shelby looked startled. She had told Scott this was her

favorite song once. She didn't even think he'd remember. The music began to play.

Look into my eyes - you will see
What you mean to me
Search your heart - search your soul
And when you find me there you'll search no more
Don't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
You can't tell me it's not worth dyin' for
You know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you

Shelby was really listening to the lyrics now.

Look into your heart - you will find
There's nothin' there to hide
Take me as I am - take my life
I would give it all - I would sacrifice

Don't tell me it's not worth fightin' for
I can't help it - there's nothin' I want more
Ya know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you

There's no love - like your love
And no other - could give more love
There's nowhere - unless you're there
All the time - all the way

Shelby couldn't believe Scott was singing her favorite song to her. She was so happy.

Their love was real. She had tears now. But for the first time. They were tears of joy.

Oh - you can't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
I can't help it - there's nothin' I want more
I would fight for you - I'd lie for you
Walk the wire for you - ya I'd die for you

Scott smiled at Shelby.

Ya know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you

When Scott finished everyone clapped. "Shelby, please come to the stage." At first Shelby

couldn't move. What he had just done. It really touched her. Finally she got her feet working

again and walked to the stage. Scott helped her up then brushed away her tears. "Shelby

Merrick, I love you with all of my heart and soul. I will love you until the end of time. You are

truly my guardian angel." he reached into his pocket and pulled out a velvet box. He opened it.

Shelby saw a Princess cut diamond ring. "Princess Shelby, will you marry me?"

"Where did you get that?" Shelby asked.

" My mother's. She stopped by yesterday. Well Shel, will you marry me?" Scott looked at

her. Then for the first time in 6 months Shelby smiled.

"Yes Prince Scott. I will marry you." Shelby kissed Scott and Scott picked her up and spun

her around. Everyone clapped.

For these two star crossed lovers, through their pain and pasts, they lived happily ever

after.

THE END!

Author's note : I know Shelby seemed a bit of a cryer. But it was really emotional. I want to thank you all for reading my story. I wrote it for you. I am working on another story. It'll be up soon. Thanks! MoRbId ShElBy
