Chapter 14

Getting to know people



Drama room - 4:55 pm

Rhys and Maddy are playing chess, Remy is doing homework. Rhys takes Maddy's queen, she seems unfazed by it.

Maddy: So, you got any siblings?

Rhys: (pretending to be working out his next move.) No.

(Maddy moves forward her horse. Rhys moves his bishop.)

Rhys: Check mate.

Maddy: Crap. (Peter walks in with Atth and Mystic.)

Peter: Ok you guys, Remy, you're still in here, while Maddy, you're in the maths room and Rhys, you're in lodge.

(Maddy and Rhys get up and leave.)

************************************************************

Maths room - 5 pm

Nick watches Dard walk out and wonders how he can get her to like him enough for her to sleep with him. His thoughts are interrupted by Clarence & Maddy walking in.

Clarence pulls out his sleeping bag and gets into it; he got hardly any sleep the last night. Maddy walks over to Nick wanting to find out if he's as bad as everyone says.

Maddy: Hey.

Nick: Hi babe.

Maddy: Please, don't.

Nick: Ok, whatever honey.

Maddy: (ignoring the comment.) So, do you like it here so far?

Nick: You sound like Peter.

Maddy: Well, do you.

Nick: Yeah, there's tonnes of hot chicks.

Maddy: Um, ok.

Nick: Do you like anyone? (Thinking that she likes him)

Maddy: Wow, how intelligent.

Nick: Well?

Maddy: Do you?

Nick: Yeh.

Maddy: Who?

Nick: Dard.

Maddy: Of course.

Nick: Now that I've told you, you tell me.

Maddy: Atth.

Nick: Oh. (Disappointed.)

Maddy: But you can't tell anyone.

Nick: I swear.

****************************************************************

Lodge - 5 pm

Rhys walks in and sees Dard lying on the couch. She looks up and smiles at him.

Dard: Hey hottie.

Rhys: (wanting to be anywhere else) Hi.

Dard: (patting the couch she's on.) Why don't you join me?

Rhys: Um, no, I've got to have a shower.

Dard: You want any company?

Rhys: No, (walking out)

Dard: Ah, a cold one then.

*******************************************************************

Shower

Rhys takes off his top and steps into the shower; he catches a glimpse of himself in the mirror and stops.

Rhys: (mumbles to himself) Shit.

(He notices how skinny he is, he can see all his rib bones.)

(Rhys hated how people thought he didn't eat because he was worried about his weight. He actually couldn't care less about his appearance. He didn't eat because he liked how it felt; the hunger pains took his mind of everything. He had tried to start eating again, but whenever he ate he would always feel sick and want to throw up, he couldn't stand that feeling even more than hunger and it was easier just not to eat.)
