Friends Forever
She
left the web, she left the loom,
She made three paces through the
room,
She saw the water-lily bloom,
She saw the helmet and
the plume,
She look'd down to Camelot.
Out flew the web and
floated wide;
The mirror crack'd from side to side;
"The
curse is come upon me," cried
The Lady of Shalott.
From The Lady Of Shalott by Alfred Lord Tennyson
Prologue
Ophelia never exactly liked flying. It's not that she gets plane sick, she just is awkward around people. Thankfully for this trip she had her iPod and her newly added Broadway play list. When your alone on planes people feel compelled to talk to you. This also happens in bars. Ophelia Adams knows what it's like to be alone. She was orphaned at age 3 and she was then put in foster care. She never stayed in one house for too long, "She frightens the other children." This was the most common reason for her being forced away. At one high school she went to, the 'popular' kids found out and told everyone. "I don't think your scary." One girl had said. The girls name was Sarah, she became Ophelia's best friend.
But that was the past. Phe never liked talking the past. She liked to the future and her future was the BAU. She was 27 and had an IQ of 180. Everyone thought she was a genius. But she knew about the brilliant Dr. Reid. Her father was part of the original BAU. Agent Eric Adams adopted her at age 15 and he was the only person who kept her. He was the only person she ever respected as her parent.
About halfway through the flight her iPod died. She ran a hand through her auburn hair and sighed. She reached underneath the seat in front of her and got her carry on. It contained her laptop, and a book. She put the iPod inside and pulled out her. "You like poetry?" The man beside her asked looking at the cover of the book. "Yes" she said, "Yeah, I like poetry too." The man said. He didn't strike Phe as a guy who actually read poetry, but as a man who wanted to hook up. "Oh, who's your favorite poet?" She asked. He looked a little surprised that she was asking that. "Oh, I don't know. There's so many good poets. I like Shakespeare. " Phe smiled. He was a liar and she could prove it. "How happy some o'er others some can be/threw Athens I am thought as fair as she/but what of that; Demetrius thinks not
so!" She said. Now he just looked confused. "So , is this trip business or pleasure?" He asked trying to change the subject. "A little of both." She said happily.
