Chapter 2
Shelby slowly makes her way back to Horizon. Not at all enthused about the lecture she has coming about being out all night, especially in the woods. As she makes her way into the cafeteria for their so-called "breakfast" Peter heads her off.
"Yes, my captain? May I help you?" she asks in her usually sarcastic tone while looking up at him.
"Shelby, where have you been?" asks a concerned and slightly irritated Peter. "You know better that to run off alone, especially at night after lights out!"
"So, what's my punishment? Shuns? Wood chopping duty? Silences?" she says not even sorry for running of.
"Well, now that you mention it. Seeing as how you love to be alone, you get 2 days on silences. That means the whole thing you eat alone, no talking for any reason what so ever, unless you're on class, and I want at least 6 journal entries." He stands there waiting for some kind of reaction or protest on her part, but there is none.
Shelby just looks up at him and smirks. Then she gets her food and sits down at an empty table.
The Cliffhangers Table
" Yo, guys what's up with Shelby? She's eating alone" asks Auggie looking over at the isolated blonde in the corner of the cafeteria.
" She was out all night, she's probably on punishment." Says Jules in a very know it all tone of voice.
"What was she doing out all night?" ask a very curious Kat and Ezra at the same time.
"Even the cards couldn't figure it out." Says Daisy.
" The skank was probably out all night helping out the other guys around Horizon with some "problems" they were having." Says Scott as usual acting all holier than thou.
With that the whole Cliffhanger table erupted with laughter. The other tables had over heard the conversation and started laughing. Then one of the guys from the Ridge Runners turned to Shelby and said, "Hey Shelby you mind helping me out with a problem?" and again the whole cafeteria started laughing. Shelby didn't wanna hear anymore of it, so at that she did the only thing she knew how, she ran out the door, while a bunch of guys yelled "Run Shelby, Run!"
"Good job, meat!" says Auggie sarcastically.
Shelby decided to walk back to her dorm and get started on those journal entries. She plops down on her bed with her journal and starts writing. By the time she finishes it she has to hurry off to class. To her surprise she's one of the first ones in the classroom. She sits down in her usual seat in the far corner of the room and started copying the notes on the board. Much to her dismay Scott comes in with Juliet and sits next to her with Juliet in front of him. He turns to her with a smirk on his face.
"Well, if it isn't the resident whore." He says grinning.
"What do you want?" she says rolling her eyes.
"I can sit here if I want to skank!" Scott says cracking up.
At that she gets up and moves to a seat next to Daisy. After class she hurries out the door and down to the docks with her Journal.
Back at the lodge
Scott is sitting in a chair watching Juliet giggle while talking to Auggie. As he watched his blood started to boil. Finally he got up and approached them.
"Um, Juliet can I talk to you in the kitchen for a second?" Scott asks approaching the two.
"Ok!" she says in her usually perky voice.
He pulls her toward the kitchen quickly. Juliet starts to wrap her arms around his neck, but he abruptly pushes her away obviously annoyed.
"What's the matter?" she asks
"Jules you've gotta make a choice."
"What do you mean?" she says very confused
"It's either me or Auggie!"
" That's not fair, you know Auggie is just a friend" she says trying to defend herself
"It's either me or him!" Scott says rather demandingly
"If I have to choose between you and my good friends maybe we shouldn't be together" screams Juliet obviously really upset.
"Maybe we shouldn't" he practically screams.
"Fine!"
"Fine!'
And at that Scott turns around and stomps away, leaving a crying Juliet.
