Mine Forever Part 3
Of course Juliette can't do that to Shelby. She decides she isn't going to be mean after all. Even though it will be extremely hard to keep her mouth shut. She decides she's going to be happy for them instead. She waits until she hears Shelby and Daisy leave and then she emerges from the bathroom.

Ezra tiptoes past everyone and finds his way towards Peter's office. He looks around to make sure that no one else is there. No one else is, so he goes in and sits in Peter's chair.
"So, this is what it's like to be boss," he says relaxing in the chair.
Then he remembers what he came there for. He starts shuffling through his drawers and his files.
"Aha! He says a few minutes later as he pulls out a piece of paper.
He picks up the phone and dials the number he found.
"Hello?" a voice answers.
"Is this Kat?"
She hesitates. "Who's this?"
"It's Ezra."
"Ezra! It's good to hear from you! What's up?"
"How's New York?"
"New York is great! You should come visit sometime. Hey, how'd you get Peter to let you call me?"
Ezra lowers his voice. "Peter doesn't know I'm calling you."
"Ezra, what is this all about?"
"I want you to help me find my parents."

"So, Daisy, I want you to be my maid of honor," Shelby says starting to make plans already.
"Ok, sure." Daisy is starting to get a little worried about Shelby. She's acting just as happy and perky as Juliette!
"What color dress would you like? I wonder who Scott will choose as his Best Man? Should I carry a bouquet of lilies or white roses?" she continues to ramble on.
"Hey, there, beautiful," Scott says appearing behind them.
"Hey, yourself," Shelby smiles at him.
Daisy rolls her eyes. "I don't think I can take any much more of this. I'm going to find.....somebody. Anybody!" She runs off before she has to listen to those two anymore.
"So, you told her, huh?" Scott asks.
"Yes. She seemed happy for us. But you were right. She didn't think it was a great idea."
"Well, she'll get used to it." He slips his hand into hers.
*****
"Find your parents?"
"Yes, my birth parents. You're in New York now. You have access to everything."
"I dunno, Ezra. Are you sure you want to do this?"
Ezra realizes he's been on the phone long enough. "Yes, Kat. I really want this. But I can't talk anymore. I'll keep in touch."
"But, Ez-"
She doesn't get a chance to finish her sentence because Ezra has hung up on the phone on her.
"What are you doing in here?"
Ezra practically jumps out of his chair when he realizes he has been caught. He breathes a sigh of relief when he sees it's only Daisy
"I'll tell you outside." He hurries out of the office before he gets caught with Daisy trailing behind him.
When they get outside, they start walking around campus together.
"I just called Kat," Ezra tells Daisy.
"Kat? What for?"
"I want her to help me find my parents."
"You're really going to go through this, huh?"
"Yes, it's something I really want to do."
"Then I guess I'll support you with what ever you need."
Ezra gives Daisy a smile. Then he takes her hand in his. Daisy shyly smiles back.
"I knew you'd understand."
They continue walking around campus hand in hand.
