Sorry about that, but you have no idea how much I miss Once and Again
already.
-----Morning in Peter's office----
"Tap, tap," there was a knock on the door.
"Come in," Peter said not looking up.
A girl who looked very young opened the door and waited for Peter to acknowledge her.
"Olivia, is something wrong?" Peter asked with a concerned look on his face.
"No, but I kind of need to talk to you about something," she said looking at her feet.
Olivia had always been shy, she didn't speak unless she had to, so Peter knew something was up.
"Why don't you sit down, and tell what you have to say," Peter offered her a chair.
"I don't know how to say this. No, never mind it's dumb," she said as jumped out of the chair and out of the room.
Peter tried to follow her, but she had too much of head start. He saw Lindsey West lying on a picnic table, she was a Cliffhanger, as was Olivia. He walked over to Lindsey.
"Hi Lindsey," he said.
"Hey," she said sitting up.
"Anything new with you?" he asked her.
"I'm so pasty but that's not new," she now pulled her legs up to her chest.
"You really shouldn't being lying in the sun without sun screen. The…"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, UV rays and skin cancer. I know Peter, I'm not stupid," She interrupted him.
"I never said you were stupid, but I have a question for you."
"What are you waiting for, shoot," Lindsey spat out.
"Do you know what Olivia wanted to tell me this morning?" he put his hand on Lindsey's shoulder.
"Well, last night she said she saw someone doing something, and she was really upset about it. So we, Katie, Daniella, and I told her, that she should tell you." Lindsey was now, playing with her fingers.
"Someone? Something?" Peter asked skeptically
"I'm not being the one who tattles."
"Lindsey, is this someone doing something to hurt themselves or someone else?" Peter was starting to get annoyed.
"No," was all Lindsey said. She hopped off the picnic table. "I have to go."
"Thank you for your time Lindsey," Peter said.
"Yeah, whatever."
Peter walked back to his office. He began to sort through the bills, when the phone rang.
"Hello," Peter answered in monotone.
"Peter we have to talk," Sophie concerned voice flowed through the phone. She had the morning off, so she was at home.
"What is it?" Peter said a silent prayer that one of his daughters wasn't hurt.
"I was putting some clothes away in the girls' room, and I found ecstasy," Sophie voice was shaking.
"Where did you find it?"
"In the dresser, inside some socks."
"So, it could have been either one," Peter pushed his hair back.
"I just thought you should know. We can talk about this tonight. I love you Peter."
"I love you too."
With that they hung up. His daughters, he never thought this would happen with his daughters.
"Sophie and I have always talked to them about drugs," he said to himself. "Maybe that's why Leah is so chipper, or Ivy she has been acting strange lately. Or both of them do it together while Sophie and I are at work."
He heard something being shoved under the door. A note appeared, and then footsteps ran away. Peter picked up the note and read it.
Peter-
I tried to talk to you, but I couldn't. So here I'll say it. Yesterday I was taken a walk, and I saw Ivy or Leah doing stuff with some boy in the woods. There I said it. Please, please don't talk about this anymore with me.
