I frowned at Billee. He really looked upset. I turned to Frodo.
"Hey, what have you got next?"
"I think I have biology."
"Hey, me too. You're in my class." I grinned. Then I looked at my breakfast tray. Wrinkling my nose, I asked, "What the hell is this?"
Baz plopped down on the other side of the table. "I think it's Gimli's gym socks."
I gagged. "Oh gross, Baz, That's disgusting!"
Baz, Billee, Legolas, Frodo, Jake, Aragorn, Merry, Pippin and Sam all burst out laughing. Emma was trying and failing miserably to hide the smirk on her face. The other girls came up.
"What are you laughing at?" asked Arwen, sitting beside Aragorn. Aragorn whispered in her ear and she burst out laughing, and hit him in the stomach. He pretended to double up in pain, sending the whole table into gales of laughter. I looked at my watch.
"You guys, it's almost time for homeroom. I'm gonna go get my books and stuff. You coming, Emma? Frodo?"
Frodo stood up. "I'll go." He smirked at Sam , Merry and Pippin. They all laughed.
We walked into the dorm building and Karrie, a girl who worked in the office, ran up to me. "Jamie!"
I turned. "Yeah, Karrie?"
"You just got this package. Dunno what it is. But it's kinda small."
"Thanks, Karrie," I took the box and opened it. I gasped. Frodo looked stunned.
"M-my Grandmothers pendant… The one grandpa gave her when they were married."
Frodo looked at the jewel, nestled in the cotton wool on a fine gold chain.
"Hey, look, there's a note." He said and picked up the small envelope.
I took it and opened it. Reading the note, I sank into the chair, that occupied the lobby.
"Are you okay?" I heard Frodo's voice, but it sounded far away.
"Granny Mal…no…" That was all I could say. Frodo took the note and read it out loud.
Dear Jamie,
I'm sorry you couldn't have been here to hear my last words.
But, don't worry. I'll still be close to your heart if you wear my pendant.
You know I love you, and if your father does anything to you, ride straight to
Hobbiton. Take Jake with you. My friend Gaffer Gamgee has said he'll look after you. Don't worry love.
Love always,
Your Grandmother Mallory.
I got up without thinking. I ran down the hall and into my room. I know it sounds strange, but my own private space is the only place I find it easy to think.
I climbed into my wardrobe and sat there, but no matter how much I thought about Granny's death, tears wouldn't come. I started to chew my nails. But that hurt to much. I found a stubby pencil on the floor and began to draw on the wall.
"Jamie? Where are you?" called a voice. Emma. She opened my wardrobe door and looked down at my miserable form.
"What's wrong?" I handed her the note and she read it. She looked up.
"Oh, Jamie. I'm so sorry." She gave me a hug. I still couldn't cry. It was like a rule against it. Emma looked at the box. "Is that the pendant?" I nodded.
"Yeah." I said in a strangely choked voice. Emma took it out of the box and put it around my neck, fastening the clasp.
"Come on. I'll walk you to class."
We walked into Biology and I sat at the lab desk and hung my head.
Arwen nudged me. "Hey, you okay?"
I shook my head. "I just want to be alone for a while." Arwen nodded.
"Okay."
The teacher walked in, I didn't really notice. I was wondering why everything seemed to be going wrong in my life.
