*Sorry it took so long to update, I've been busy at work. Not like anyone
reads this anyway, but I like to read my own stories when they're posted.
It makes me feel all warm and special inside.
(Friday)
Ivy is laying on her stomach on her bed, listening to her CD player. Leah comes into the room.
"Ivy remember I told you, that you had to let Mom and Dad know what is going on by tomorrow."
"I know, I was planning on talking to them when they get back tonight. Dad got home from the hike this afternoon." Ivy says.
"What are you going to say?" Leah asks.
"I'm not sure. They are going to be pissed when I tell them. Any ideas?"
"Well, you could ask them for help. They will probably be less mad at you, if you tell them you have a problem." Leah suggests.
"But I don't have a problem." Ivy insists.
"Ivy, you do. Everybody knows. I've heard some interesting things about you from a few people at school."
"Like who?" Ivy asks.
"Let's see oh Maggie, Eric, at least half the color guard."
Ivy interrupts " You believe those nasty sluts?"
"Ivy, I really hope you change." With that Leah leaves the room.
(In the middle of the woods)
Peter is sitting on the ground, looking at the journals he gave for the solos. Daniella's was mostly sarcastic with very few genuine feelings. He flips open Ethan's journal, there is a poem written on the back of the forth page. You mean everything to me The first time I saw you I knew I love you, I truly do.
There was in Ethan's journal or anything Peter knew about Ethan to place this poem to a person.
"At least somebody got something out of this," Peter says to himself.
"What?" Daniella asks.
"Nothing, just talking to myself are you guys about ready to head out?" Peter quickly changes the subject.
"I am, but Ethan and Olivia are busy making kissy face in the brush." Daniella states.
"What? Where are they?" Peter leaps from the ground and starts looking.
"I was kidding. They're trying to fix the strap on Olivia's bag. You really need to calm down." Daniella informs him.
"That isn't funny Daniella. This is your first and last warning for today." Peter tells her.
"We fixed the bag actually, I fixed the bag, but." Ethan announces.
"Ethan you are such a loser," Daniella says snottily.
"Who's here because they couldn't wait until morning to see their lover?" Ethan shoots back. "Olivia did you get caught after lights out with Owen?"
"No," Olivia answers sweetly.
"You're the only with the lover Ethan. I know all about you and Le."
"Shut up," Ethan cuts her off.
"Thought that's how it was. Just remember to keep your yapper shut the rest off the way home, and I won't tell Peter about what you and his precious daughter do." Daniella tells him.
"Whatever Daniella." Ethan walks over to Peter with Olivia they show off their handy work.
"Duct tape, anything can be fixed with duct tape." Ethan says.
"Are we ready to roll?" Peter says clapping his hands together.
Daniella yawns, Olivia stares up blankly, and Ethan is still beaming from his duct tape solution.
"I'll take that as a yes." Peter says and he leads the small group onwards.
The group hikes for several hours, then Horizon comes into view.
"I never thought I'd be so glad to be back here," Ethan says.
"I know what you mean," Olivia seconds him.
"It's about 1:30 everyone else is still in class. You can unpack and relax until dinner." Peter turns and tells them.
"You mean we don't even have to start our makeup homework?" Daniella asks.
"That would be a good idea but no. By the way I will be checking to see that your assignments are all completed by next Friday." Peter says.
"Dang," Daniella mumbles. She and Olivia head to the girls' cliffhanger dorm. Ethan heads towards the guys' dorm.
Peter walks to the office. Sophie is sitting at her desk working on some paper work. She looks up to see him enter.
"I missed you." She says giving him a hug.
"I missed you too." Peter kisses her forehead. "How has everything been going here and at home?"
"Actually things here went well, except Lindsey has been in the nurse's office throwing up since after breakfast." Sophie says.
"Is she going to be okay?" Peter asks.
"Yeah, she had a slight fever so the doctor stopped by and saw her. She said Lindsey just has a virus and gave antibiotics." Sophie goes on.
"That's good, I'll stop by and see her before I go home to change. How's Ivy?" Peter asks.
"Hmmm.. that is a very good question, but Ivy isn't talking to me." Sophie informs him.
"Great," Peter says sarcastically. "I'll be back for dinner, and I'll bring the girls if they want to come."
"Bye sweetie." Sophie says, giving Peter one last welcome home kiss.
Peter goes to the nurse's office to find Lindsey sitting crossed legged on a bed with her head resting on her hands.
"Hey Lindsey, how are you feeling?" Peter asks softly as he gently pushes her hair out of her face.
"Not so good," she moans.
"That's what I heard. Do you want anything? When was the last time you had something to drink?" Peter keeps rattling off questions.
"I don't know, maybe some juice," she says.
"I'll see if I can find you some in the kitchen." Peter leaves but comes back a sort time later. "Here how does apple juice sound?"
"Fine," Lindsey says.
"Good." Peter pours a cup and hands it to Lindsey.
"Thanks," she says with a slight smile.
"Your very welcome. I'm have to go home, but I'll leave the juice here in case you want more." Peter says leaving Lindsey alone again.
