Leah walked into her math class the next morning. After a quick good
morning to Brett and Tara, she went over to Lia.
"I talked to Ethan last night, he's just like Maggie. Maybe they should date," Leah said.
"Leah, they're acting like that because they know your parents. If I knew your parents, I'd probably be acting the same way." Lia told her friend.
"Anyway Ethan and I had a disagreement, but I'm pretty sure we made up. Here's the bad part; we got caught. But the counselor who found us thought I was Ivy. So Ethan and Ivy are in a little bit of trouble. I'm dying to find out what their punishment was," Leah stated. "Did you see if you get into the telephone directory at your dad's work?
"I'm going to try and get those phone numbers for you tonight. I can't promise anything but having a dad, who works for the Phone Company, might just pay off," Lia said. "Ms. D is giving us the evil eye. You might want to sit down."

"I can't believe you're covering for her," Ethan said.
"She has covered for me so many times. I figured I owed her one." Ivy told him. "You are both lucky your romance hasn't been discovered yet. We'd better get our story straight. I told you we needed to talk. So we met in the woods. That's all that happened."
"Sounds good to me. I'm really surprised, that your parents haven't figured it out yet," Ethan stated.
Ivy never had a chance to reply. At that moment Sophie opened the office door. "Ethan, Peter and Rob need to talk to you first." She informed him.
Ethan went through the door. Sophie closed it from the outside. She wasn't going to have a part in these meetings.
"You can sit next to Rob." Peter told Ethan.
Ethan slid into the chair facing Peter's desk.
"Ethan, why don't you start by explaining to us exactly what went on last night," Peter said.
"Ivy told me she had something she wanted to talk to me about last night after group. We met up later, in the woods and talked." Ethan said.
"I know you and Ivy are quit aware of the rules. This is pretty severe violation of them." Peter lectured.
"Owen and Daniella do it all the time," Ethan said.
"And each time the do they receive punishment," Peter stated.
"I have a questioned Ethan. How am I supposed to be assured that talking was the only thing going on last night, between you two?" Rob asked.
"Because it was about 3 degrees out last night," Ethan said. "As I recall Ivy and were both fully dressed, when you came upon us."
"I really don't think this is the time to get smart with me." Rob told him.
"I'm really not trying to give you an attitude, but honestly I think you're going a little overboard with the assumptions." Ethan said.
"Ethan, I really don't want to spend all morning talking with you about this. You have wood chopping and kitchens for two weeks." Peter told him. "And Rob will be watching you and Ivy very closely."
"Can I go now?" Ethan asked.
"Yes, you may leave. Send Ivy in," Peter said.
Ethan walked out into the hall. "Your turn Ivy." He told her.
"What did you get?" Ivy asked.
"Two weeks of chopping wood and kitchens," Ethan states.
"Could have been worse," Ivy said. "I'd better go." She walked into the office.
Without being told where to sit she takes the spot, that had just been vacated by Ethan.
"Good morning." Ivy said pleasantly.
"Ivy, you're still consider a new student here," Peter said. He goes on, "With your history of drug use, I should give you a drug test. You haven't been clean long enough for me to get clear results."
"How would I get drugs in here?" Ivy asked.
"There are many ways. None which I'm going to share with you, but there are ways," Peter stated.
"You think Ethan and I were in the woods shooting up?" Ivy questioned.
"I didn't think about track marks. Pull your selves up." Peter told her.
She did. She slammed her uncovered on the desk. "See no new ones."
Peter looked at her arms than her wrists. "You wouldn't be missing a bracelet would you?" He asked.
"No." Ivy said.
"Ivy, you have kitchens for two weeks. You will also report to me after school, so I can assign you various jobs to do." Peter told her. "Do you have anything to add Rob?"
"Just that. You and Ethan are going to be watched. I wouldn't try anything." Rob stated.
"Super!" Ivy said sarcastically. Before she left the office.
"I talked to Ethan last night, he's just like Maggie. Maybe they should date," Leah said.
"Leah, they're acting like that because they know your parents. If I knew your parents, I'd probably be acting the same way." Lia told her friend.
