Quote-Don't lose track of your individuality, it makes you
Peter watched as the Cliffhangers all filed in the lodge, all of them blowing in their hands. He motioned for them to sit, which they did, each by their partner. He slowly stood up out of the chair he had been sitting in. He put his hands in his pockets as he observed everyone.
Peter: Ok guys, I'm assuming you are ready to make your presentation so I'll shut up and let you talk.
Shelby looked over at Peter with a little smirk
Shelby: *sarcastically* At least one good thing will come out of that deal
Peter gave Shelby a little 'fake' laugh, as he sat back down in his chair
Peter: For that Miss. Merrick, you and Juliete can go first
Juliete: Good going, Shelby
Shelby: *dryly* Please, he was going to make us go first anyway.
Shelby stood up and walked to the middle of the circle the Cliffhangers had formed
Shelby: We just have that affect on people
Juliete rolled her eyes at Shelby as she got up and walked towards her
Sophie: Ok, something the two of you have in common
Shelby looked over at Juliete with an annoyed look on her face. Juliete shrugged her shoulders as she stared at the ground, a smile on her face
Shelby: Fine-what we have in common is…
Shelby sighed and nudged Juliete with her arm
Juliete: Um…
Shelby: *sarcastically* We both have an affect on people that lasts…some better than others
Juliete shot Shelby a little glare and turned to face Sophie
Juliete: We both had it rough at home, and in one way or another we were sorta 'pushed' to do things we didn't want to do
Sophie nodded her head and looked at Shelby
Shelby: Ok, ok, I agree
Peter nodded his head and motioned for Shelby and Juliete to go sit down, which they did.
Peter: Scott and Ezra
Scott stood up, pulling a near frozen Ezra along with him
Peter: Go ahead
Scott ran a hand through his hair nervously as Ezra whistled to himself
David: Well now, isn't this entertaining
Ezra rolled his eyes at David as Scott glared at him
Peter: Come on guys, your attention is on me, not David over there. Who, might I add, will be doing dishes if he makes another remark like that
David rolled his eyes and mumbled a few words to himself
Scott: Um…we both used drugs to relieve or pain
Ezra: Even though it didn't ease it
Peter nodded his head and gave them a small smile
Peter: Good. Auggie and Laura
Auggie and Laura stood up from their seats and walked to the middle of the circle
Auggie: The only thing we can think of man is that we just got problems-some of us more than others
Peter clasped his hands together and placed his chin on them, an expression of 'thought' on his face
Peter: So, you and Laura admit you have problems and need guidance
Auggie looked over Laura who slightly shrugged her shoulder. He then looked back at Peter
Auggie: Yeah, man
Peter smiled at them and nodded his head
Peter: Ok, that's good
Peter looked around the room, wondering who he should call on next
Peter: David, since she wanted to run your mouth, why don't you and Jacky tell us something you have in common
David smirked at Peter as a small smirk crossed his face
David: We both find your pretty annoying
Peter snapped his fingers motioning for David to stand up, which he did, followed by Jacky
Peter: Ok, now tell me something you really have in common
David rolled his eyes and swayed back and forth, his hands in his pockets
David: Physical
Jacky looked over at David. She had told him about her brothers, and for some reason he had understood. She didn't understand why, and she really didn't understand why he had told him, but she had, and she actually felt relief
Peter: What do you mean by that David?
The annoyed look left David's face as a solemn one crossed it
David: You know exactly what I'm getting at
Peter looked David in the eyes and slowly nodded his head
Peter: Ok, that's good. I know what you're getting at
David looked around the room and nodded his head. He then lightly nudged Jacky on the arm and they both walked back to the chairs they were sitting in
Daisy: *dryly* Guess we know what we're thought of since we have been chosen last…
Peter gave Daisy a little grin as she and Eric walked towards the middle of the circle
Peter: So Daisy, what do you and Eric have in common?
Daisy raised an eyebrow
Daisy: *dryly* Not much, except his favorite color is black, too
Eric: We each had screwed up family lives. Now that you've heard what you want to hear, we'll sit down now
Peter watched as Eric nervously sat down, followed by Daisy, who had a smirk on her face. There was one thing Peter had figured out about Eric, and it was that he didn't like to be the center of attention; that made him nervous.
Peter shook the thought out of his head and stood back up
Peter: Now that you know everyone here has something in common, I want you guys to turn in early tonight and think about the meaning of the word 'group'
The normal groans and moans were heard, but Peter was pleased no smart comments were made. He watched as they all walked out of the lodge. He then turned to Sophie
Peter: We're getting there, Soph. We're getting there…
