A few moments later a police car pulls up to the house. Leah and Rob were
now engrossed in a conversation about music.
Peter appears and says "We can leave the officers are just going to check for any additional evidence. Leah you can just hang out today, unless you want to bring homework with you."
"Actually I think do want to bring my homework. Can you go get it?" Leah asks.
"Sure just tell me what I'm looking for." Peter tells her.
"Just my backpack it should be in the downstairs hall closet," she replies.
"I'll be right back, you guys can go start the car." Peter reaches into his pocket and tosses the keys. Leah catches them and Rob follows her to the car.
Leah starts up the car, before she sinks into the back seat. Rob takes his place on the passenger's side. They sit in silence.
Peter comes back a few moments later carrying Leah's purple backpack on his back. He opens the door and hands the bag back to Leah. She opens it up checking the contents, a folder, two notebooks, a chemistry book, and a copy of Jane Eyre.
"Everything I wants in here, we can go." Leah tells her father as she zips up her backpack.
(Later That Day) Leah drops her book on the floor. "Ugh I'm sick of reading," she says to Peter's empty office. Normally Leah would have been able to hang out with everyone including Ethan, but now that Ivy was a student, things were different.
Suddenly the door open and Ethan stepped in to the office closing the door quickly.
"I was just thinking about you," Leah tells him with a smile.
"Only good things, I hope," Ethan replies.
"I miss you." Leah says as she gives Ethan a hug.
"I miss you, too." Ethan kisses her gently on the lips.
"How did you get away?" Leah asks. The couple is resting their hands against each other as they sit on the floor.
"I have my ways, some people owed me some favors." Ethan tells her.
"That's all you are going to say, some people owed you some favors?" Leah questions.
"Yes, favors. I just hope your dad doesn't come in. He already has it out for me." Ethan says.
"My dad doesn't have it out for." Leah tells him.
"Ever since Olivia told him about you and me being the woods, he's been watching me like a hawk."
"Oh really? Like a hawk? How exactly does a hawk look?" Leah asks.
"Like this!" Ethan dives and Leah and begins tickling her.
"NO FAIR!" Leah yells between giggles. She turns looks Ethan in the face.
He smiles, but his hands suddenly drop to his sides.
Leah's heart sinks, she realizes Ethan is looking towards the door. She turns her head slowly and is surprised. It isn't one of her parents it's Rob.
"Leah, I was under the impression that you weren't supposed to be visiting with any of the students today," Rob states.
"No, I couldn't go out and see anyone because it's Ivy's first day here and all. My dad didn't say people couldn't come and see me." Leah lies.
"I see well under the circumstances I won't say anything, but this young man needs to leave with me now." Rob tells the pair.
"See you later Leah." Ethan says.
"Bye Ethan." Leah waves.
As Ethan is walking behind Rob to leave the room, Ethan turns and whispers, "That's what a hawk looks like."
Peter appears and says "We can leave the officers are just going to check for any additional evidence. Leah you can just hang out today, unless you want to bring homework with you."
