Chapter 7
Adopted
Guys' Dorm - Midnight
Rhys is lying in bed, he can't get to sleep, he gets up and walks outside and over to the bin, as he is taking his soccer ball out of the bin, he hears something.
Atth: (Seeing Rhys going through the bin) You hungry? (He's sitting on the steps nearby smoking a joint.)
Rhys: Shit, you scared me.
Atth: I have that effect on people.
Rhys: What are you doing out here?
Atth: What does it look like?
Rhys: Where'd you get the pot?
Atth: Very old shoes. (pulling the sole of his shoe partly off, the place in which he sneaked in a few joints.) You play soccer? (pointing to the ball.)
Rhys: I used to.
Atth: Why'd you stop?
Rhys: (getting uncomfortable.) Screwed up my knee. Goodnight. (He walks back into the dorm.)
Atth: See ya.
Morning - Peter's Office
Maddy walks in
Maddy: You wanted to see me?
Peter: Yes, sit down. Now I've just read over your file and I was wondering if you've ever thought of finding your real parents.
Maddy: (goes white) My what?
Peter: (Shocked) You didn't know?
Maddy: Know what?
Peter: (Amazed) You were adopted. (Maddy doesn't say anything. She gets up slowly and walks out.) If you want to talk, I'm here! (Shouting after her.)
Lodge
Peter walks in; most of the Cliff-hangers are in there.
Peter: Alright everyone, I have organised something I think you'll like, so gather round. Atth, can you find Maddy for me, thanks.
(Atth gets up reluctantly and walks out.)
Docks
Atth walks up, Maddy has knees up to her chest and is staring at the water, Atth can't see her face.
Atth: Peter wants to see all us in the lodge. (Waits for an answer, but doesn't get one.) Fine. (under his breath.) Snob.
(Atth starts to walk away. A sob escapes from Maddy's mouth and Atth turns back surprised.)
Atth: Are you alright?
(Maddy starts crying quietly, hugging her knees. Atth wonders what to do, he doesn't want to show his nice side, but decides this is more important, he hates seeing anyone, especially girls, cry. He sits down next to Maddy.)
Atth: Do you want to talk about it?
(Maddy only sits there crying softly. Atth puts his arm around her, but she flinches so he pulls back, he tries again and she lets him hold her. After a couple of minutes Peter walks up looking for them, he sees Atth comforting Maddy, so he decides not to interrupt. Atth and Maddy sit like that, not moving for over an hour. Atth looks down at Maddy, who has stopped crying and realizes she is asleep. He gets up carefully and picks her up gently and carries her to the girls' dorm.)
Girls' Dorm
Atth walks in with Maddy in his arms. Mystic is the only person in the dorm. She looks up and sees Atth carrying Maddy, expecting the worst she runs up.
Mystic: What happened?
Atth: (Whispering.) Shhh! She's asleep.
Mystic: (Whispering.) Is she ok?
Atth: Yeh, she's fine.
(They walk over to Maddy's bed and Mystic pulls back the covers, Atth gently places Maddy on her bed and pulls up the covers.)
Mystic: (Suspicious) What happened?
Atth: (Walks out.) Nothing.
Next day - Morning
Maddy goes to the guys' dorm and knocks, Clarence opens the dorm.
Maddy: Hi, is Atth awake?
Clarence: (Smiles) Um, yeh, I'll get him. (Walks up to Atth.) Oy, Atth, there's a foxy lady at the door waiting on your arrival.
Atth to Clarence: (Walks to the door) Shit, it's not Dard is it?
Clarence: Nuh man.
Atth: Thank god. (Clarence smiles and shakes his head.)
(Atth walks out the door and sees Maddy.)
Atth: (Surprised) Maddy, what are you doing here?
Maddy: I wanted to thank you.
Atth: (Confused) For what?
Maddy: Staying with me.
Atth: (Not sure of what to say.) Um, you're welcome. (No one says anything.) Do you want to talk about it?
Maddy: (trying to decide whether to tell him or not.) Maybe later.
Atth: Ok.
Maddy: Bye. (Starts to leave)
Atth: Maddy
Maddy: (Turning round.) Yeh.
Atth: Can you not, um, tell anyone, bout this?
Maddy: (Smiling) Don't worry, I won't tell anyone there's a half decent guy in there.
(She walks away. Atth sighs and walks back into the dorm.)
It'll get more interesting, bare with me.
Please review.
I already have up to chapter 11 finished so the more reviews; the faster the chapters will be uploaded.
Chapter 8 & 9 -
Peter does the progress reports, upsetting people, causing someone to run, who will it be? Is this where I get rid of Remy by making him fall down a cliff or is it Clarence who hasn't said much or Atth who is just weird or Rhys who I haven't put much in this story about or am I just talking crap and making this note longer than the actual chapter? I'll stop now.
REVIEW!
