REGRETS

A/N: Is it quick enough for you?

Don't own anything except the characters and the places I created for this story.

Oh, and the sentences in bold mean the characters are talking. I hope it won't be too confusing to read…


Scott's apartment's buildings, Two Minutes later

I finally reach the front door and breathe. They really should build an elevator. It's damn annoying to climb five stairs every time I wanna see him. What would I do for my Cowboy? I knock on the door. If Scott doesn't answer immediately, I have the proof the little slut is already here. I wait one, two seconds…I knock a second time. Why am I so impatient? Finally I hear footstep and the door opens. Here stands Tina, glaring at me.

"Aren't you glad to see me?" I can't help but being sarcastic. I well know she hates me. She just rolls her eyes and let me in "Where's Scott?" I ask almost immediately noticing he isn't in the living room.

"Bedroom." She says annoyed. I go, leaving her behind me. I hear her sighing; I will just pretend I didn't. The door is already slightly opened, so I take a step inside. Scott is watching TV. He looks better than the other day.

"Hey you!" I say softly smiling, closing the door behind me.

"Hey!" He smiles back. I can tell he's happy to see me. He pats a place on his bed for me and turns the TV off. I walk towards the bed and sit down, taking his hand in mine.

"So, uh how are you going?" I don't know why I feel so shy suddenly.

"I'm better. Tina helps a lot; she stayed all night to take care of me." Why does he say that? Because he's upset I didn't come yesterday or to make me jealous? Maybe it's just the truth. I hate this feeling of jealousy. Why can't I just be friend with him?

"That's nice." I can't help but say it bitterly. Scott looks over at me probably wondering if I'm fine. "Sorry." I say quickly, before he asks me something. I don't want to talk to him about what happened this morning. After all, what would I say? 'Oh, Scott, you know if I didn't accept his proposal, it's because I still love you…' It sure will be good, uh?

"Why are you so mean with her? Aren't you happy I found someone I'm feeling good with?" How can he say that? All I want for him is to find happiness. Just not with her.

"Scott, I said I was sorry. I'm just not feeling too good." And here it goes again, the harsh tone.

"Well, if you came to snap at me, you can just leave." Don't throw me out! Please! I can't take it anymore; I think I'm going to cry. And here I thought it would be good to see him! I mean, normally, his only presence makes me better. If only that slut wasn't in the next room. "Shel?" His voice is gentler. I love when he says my name like this

"Yeah?" I look up into his beautiful blue eyes. I would do anything for him, he has to know it.

"What happened to you?"

"Nothing, it's just…nothing. I'm fine, really." I can't say anything until I know he is serious about Tina or not. I just can't. He doesn't buy it, I know by the odd look he gives me. I have to escape before I can't contain myself anymore. "Look, I just came to see if you were okay. But since Tina is here, I'm going to let you two alone." I got up quickly, not even looking at him.

"You don't have to, you know?"

"Yeah, but I have a date tonight." Okay, I'm lying. I just can't tell him I had planned to spend the evening with him through. "I'll call you tomorrow in the morning if you want?" Please, say yes!

"You could even come spend the evening with me." He suggest as our eyes meet.

"What about Tina?" Why do I even ask, I really don't care about the slut.

"Oh, she has a dinner with her parents."

"Okay, then. Bye."

"Bye Shel."


I hope you liked. Please review, even if you don't, it's important for me to know what you think of this. I don't know when the next chapter will be up…I'll try my best.
