A/N: I hope you guys like this chapter because I had A LOT of fun writing it! And if you guys could pray for me or something because I've been going through a really tough time. My best friend turned on me and lied so I spent the past three hours crying. Maybe some reviews will cheer me up.
Kelsey had kissed Sean goodbye and shut the door before going into the kitchen where dinner was being served. Elliot looked up at her and smiled, "I take it your first day went well."
"Oh yeah! Except, I feel really, really bad about dating Sean because I know Liz really likes him, but he was telling me a few months ago she was bullying him and now that he's hot she wants to date him." Kelsey responded taking a bite out of her pasta.
"It'll all work out." Olivia said reassuringly.
Kelsey was putting her things in her locker when Sean came up to her and wrapped his arm around her.
"You missed first period today. Why?" He asked
"Well, Liz was supposed to give me a ride, but she 'didn't feel like it' she's spending the night at my apartment with all her stupid friends so I don't know if you should come over tonight." Kelsey said looking to the floor.
"Kels, what's going on?" Sean asked with concern dripping from his voice, "Are Brooke, Jessika, and Wendy giving you crap for us dating?" He asked referring to Lizzie's two best friends.
"Yeah." She said, "Listen, you can come over, but I have to go to guitar class. I'll see you tonight." She said before pecking his cheek and going to the one class they didn't have together. When Kelsey got there, she took out her journal and began playing her guitar.
You don't know my name, you don't anything about me, I've tried to play nice, I want to be in your game. The things that you say, you may think I never hear about them, but word travels fast, I'm telling you to your face, I'm standing here behind your back.
Ever since Lizzie had come to the apartment to get her chemistry book and saw Sean and Kelsey there, kissing she hadn't said a word to Kelsey. She told her friends Brooke, Wendy, and Jessika and now they were spreading horrible rumors about Kelsey saying she's a slut and will do anything to please guys none of which were true.
You don't know how it feels to be outside the crowd you don't know what it's like to be left out. And you don't know how it feels to be your own best friend. On the Outside Looking in. If you could read my mind. You might see more of me then meets the eye. And you've been all wrong. Not who you think I am. Never given me a chance.
Even now, after a month of dating, Lizzie still didn't talk to Kelsey. Kelsey was about to tell her the real story of how she was raped and beaten. She's not as strong as everyone thinks. She wears a mask and the only one who can see past it is Olivia.
I'm tired of staying at home. I'm bored and all alone. I'm sick of wasting all my time. You don't know how it feels to be outside the crowd. You don't what it's like to be left out and you don't know how it feels to be your own best friend, on the outside looking in.
Every time Sean and Kelsey tried to go out to a movie or something Liz and her friends would always be there waiting, so they spend most of the time in the music room of the Bensler apartment. Surprisingly, Elliot and Olivia don't know about any of this, yet.
When Sean and Kelsey got back to the apartment, Olivia and Elliot were giving a sobbing Lizzie a talk.
"I'm going to go see what Dick and Cal are doing." Sean stated before going down the hall.
"Before Brooke, Wendy, and Jessika get here you need to apologize to Kels and tell your friends to stop harassing her." Elliot said. You won't call my parents, bull crap, Mr. Hermann. Kelsey thought recalling how she told her guitar teacher about Liz being a jerk to her.
"I'm sorry." Lizzie said dryly
Kelsey couldn't take it any longer. She finally found her courage and stood up to Lizzie, "You're cool. You think just because you make everyone fear you that makes guys like you? No, it doesn't. It makes you look intimidating and I'm sick of it. So, sure apologize. I don't care. But, Sean and I won't be locked in this apartment anymore." Kelsey said before heading into her room and closing the door. Before Elliot could scold Lizzie for being rude to her sister, there was a knock at the door.
The night dragged on and Lizzie and her friends went to Kathy's house with Dickie. While Olivia and Elliot, got called into work.
"Keep an eye on your sister." Elliot told Calvin before leaving and taking Olivia's hand. A little while later, Calvin went over to the neighbor's leaving Kelsey and Sean alone. They took the advantage of being home alone and started kissing in Kelsey's room, but before it could go anywhere the door swung open revealing a very speechless Elliot Stabler.
