Chapter 5: The Mistake

The first night of them camping out Scott was down by the river. Everyone on that side of the river was asleep except him. Or, at least, that's what he though.

Rachel walked up behind him and sat next to him. She wore black and red plaid pajama pants and a black tank top. She really liked the color black. And the tank top she was wearing showed some of her cleavage. Not a lot. Just enough to tease Scott.

"Hey, Scotty." She said to him with a smile now on her face.

Scott looked over to Rachel and shook his head.

"You're worse than Shelby was when I was with Jules. Give it up, Rach." He replied

"That may be true but I bet I can make this more fun thn Shelby did."

Just then Rachel stood up and maneuvered herself on top of Scott. She wrapped her legs around his waist and put her arms around his neck. He looked to her somewhat disgusted.

"Get off of me!" Scott ordered but she didn't listen.

"Shh, Scotty. It'll be our little secret" Rachel leaned over and whispered in his ear.

Shelby couldn't sleep. She was tossing and turning all night. She finally got out ofher tent and checked to make sure Sophie was sleep. Once she saw that she was, Shelby slipped on her slippers and snuck across the bridge over to the other side.

Shelby looked around trying to find Scott. She knew that he hadn't went to sleep yet. She thought for a moment about where he would since he couldn't go to the docks like he normally did and came to the conclusion that he would go near the water.

She walked slowly down to the side of the river and before she even got all the way there, she saw Rachel and Scott kissing with Rachel on top of him.

Tears swelled in her eyes but she fought them back; not allowing them to fall. She closed her eyes and if trying to wake up from some sort of nightmare. But it wasn't a nightmare. It was real and Scott was really kissing Rachel right before her eyes.

Shelby couldn't stand this any longer. She ran away, which was something she happened to be very good at. She ran across the bridge and back into her tent.

Scott pushed Rachel off of him.

"Maybe I didn't make this clear enough for you before. I have a girlfriend. Her name is Shelby and I love her so just give it up." Scott said rudely to Rachel.

"Shelby is a little slut. I mean, honestly, do you really wanna be with someone who sold herself on the streets?" Rachel asked.

Scott glared.

"At least she did it 'cause she had to. From what I know about you, you have no room to talk about being people skanks."

Scott stood up and left. He walked back into his tent once again leaving Rachel sitting in the cold.

Once Shelby was back in her tent she just feel to the ground and burst into tears. She was also much warmer now. Her navy blue pajama pants and blue T-shirt didn't keep her very warm.

Shelby was sharing the tent with Daisy and her sobs woke Daisy up.

"What's wrong?" Daisy asked obviously concerned yet still very tired.

Shelby looked over to Daisy. Her face was red and soaked from crying.

"I just walked in on Scott kissing Rachel. He was kissing her!" Shelby nearly screamed the words but managed to keep them at a normal volume.

Daisy, at first, didn't believe it. She knew how much Scott loved Shelby. But she could tell by the look on Shelby's face that it was true and she shook her head.

"What ill-favored karma a good soul must weather," Daisy said.

"What are you talking about, Daisy?" Shelby asked.

"Oh, nothing. Just forget about it."

Shelby nodded and laid her head down onto her pillow. Daisy covered Shelby with the sleeping back and left Shelby alone.

Shelby ended up crying for the majority of the night until she finally cried herself to sleep.

The next morning Shelby woke up later than everyone else because she was up all night crying. She still had thoughts and images going through her head about Scott and Rachel. She dressed into a pair of blue jeans and a white T-shirt and brushed out her blonde hair. She tried to get the thoughts out of her head but couldn't.

Shelby went over by Daisy, who was wearing a pair of black pants a blue shirt, and pulled her aside.

"Um, Daisy,do you think you can not tell anyone what I saw last night? Not even Scott. Please" Shelby asked her.

"Yeah. No problem. However long you want." Daisy responded.

"Thanks. I'm just not ready for all that drama yet."

"No, it's okay. Your secret's safe with me."

Daisy pulled Shelby into a hug. She tried to comfort her but didn't know how to. Daisy was just going to have to be there for her.

Scott woke up and want so badley to walk across the bridge and see Shelby but knew he wasn't allowed to. Trying to get his mind of his girl friend he got dressed into a pair of beige pants and a while male style wife beater with a blue button up shirt over that.

Rachel came up behind Scott wearing black pants and a red tank top and touched his arm lightly.

"Last night was fum," She said.

"Last night was a mistake that's never going to leak out!" Scott replied forcefully.

"All right. All right. Jeez, Scotty, you're too tense."

"Don't call me Scotty!"

"Fine, Scott. But you really are too tense. You don't have to worry your little angel finding out. You pushed me away. Do you really think I'm going to rub that into her?"

"Well, you could just said that I didn't push you away."

"No. You see when I rub something in, I do it with the truth. I may be somewhat of a slut but I'm not a liar."

"Fine. Just stay quiet."

"I already told you I would. Relax, Scotty. I mean Scott"

Scott didn't say anything. He just walked away. He shook his head and hoped with all his heart that Rachel would stay quiet. He didn't want to loose Shelby over a stupid mistake that lasted for only a couple of seconds.
