Facing the Past
Ch. 1
*Girl's Dorm*
"Shelby, get up!" Juliette yelled in the blonde girl's ear. Shelby pulled her pillow over her head, and Daisy looked at the clock and sighed.
"I hate to agree, but she has a point. Breakfast is in 15 minutes, and we have English right after." Daisy looked at Shelby, and, not getting any response, continued. "I am now leaving without you. Bye!" Daisy rolled her eyes as she got up and left. Juliette looked at Shelby, shook her head, and headed for the door. She stopped by the door and turned around.
"Are you coming?" She asked Shelby, who opened her eyes and looked at Jules.
"No, I'm not hungry, and I already speak English." Shelby turned away from the door and waited for Juliette to leave. Jules sighed and left, knowing that Shelby was going to get in serious trouble. Shelby waited til after the door closed behind Juliette before pulling something out from under her mattress.
*Cafeteria*
Juliette sat with the other cliffhangers and told them about Shelby refusal to come. Scott and Daisy glanced at each other. They knew something was bothering her, but she wouldn't talk to them about it. The teens were all eating in silence, and didn't notice when Peter and Sophie walked up behind them.
"Good morning, ladies and gentlemen." Peter said cheerfully, causing most of the cliffhangers to groan. His cheerfulness had to mean he was up to something. Peter shrugged and looked around the table, noticing that they were short one person.
"Where's Shelby?" He asked, noticing that Daisy and Scott both looked worred.
"She said she wasn't hungry." Juliette told Peter, trying to sound normal. She didn't want to get Shelby in trouble for skipping class before she even did. Unfortunately, she wasn't a good actress.
"And..." Peter prompted. Juliette glanced around, waiting for someone else to answer. When no one else answered, she told him.
"And that she already speaks English."
Peter and Sophie looked at each other and sighed. They both knew that something was up with Shelby, but she wouldn't talk to either of them. They walked away from the table, discussing what to do.
"So, anybody have any idea about what the sausage is made of?" Ezra asked, trying to get Daisy to laugh. She had been really worried about Shelby lately.
"Helium." Auggie replied, tossing his at Ezra.
"Tiny little aliens in UFOs!" David suggested cheerfully, throwing another sausage at Ezra.
*Across the room*
"I'll go talk to her. You can deal with them." Sophie pointed to the Cliffhangers, who were tossing sausages at each other. Peter laughed and headed for the table. Sophie watched him, and then .left.
*Girl's dorm*
Sophie gently pushed open the door to the girls' dorm. Shelby was sitting on her bed, reading something. Sophie noticed that she looked very upset.
"Hey Shelby:" She said softly. Shelby jumped and tried to wipe away her tears before Sophie noticed them. Sophie sat next to her on the bed.
"What are you reading?" She asked, trying to ease into a conversation. Shelby looked away and replied quietly.
"A letter."
"From who?" Sophie prompted.
Shelby lokked at the letter and considered whether or not she should tell Sophie who the letter was from.
