Chapter 2



Girls' Dorm

Shelby walks in trying to avoid Scott; she doesn't know why she just doesn't feel like talking to him. Daisy is sitting on her bed curled up in a ball.

Shelby: (walking toward her) Daisy? What happened?

(Shelby sits next to her and puts her arm around her. Daisy looks up, her eyes red from crying; Shelby is shocked she's only seen Daisy cry once.)

Daisy: I thought he liked me.

Shelby: Who? Freakin? Of course he does.

Daisy: No, David.

Shelby: Oh. Well who knows what's happening in that so called brain of his.

Daisy: I thought he liked me, but he doesn't.

Shelby: Do you want him to like you? I mean come on, it's David.

Daisy: I never wanted a boyfriend, but he was different. I thought it'd be different.

Shelby: You seriously like him? (Daisy nods) Jeez.

Daisy: He's not that bad.

Shelby: I'll take your word for it.

Guys' Dorm

Brad is sitting on his bed reading while David packs. Scott walks in.

Scott: You guys seen Shelby?

Brad: Nuh

Scott: Ever get the feeling she's avoiding me?

Brad: Maybe she needs space.

Scott: Well she's getting a lot of it; we haven't been alone together for days.

Brad: Ask her then.

Scott: Yeh if I can find her. (He walks out passing Ezra who, seeing David, walks up to him.)

Ezra: Sooooo.

David: Did you want something?

Ezra: Um, yeh

David: (Annoyed) Well, what do you want.

Ezra: Are you and Daisy together?

David: (interrupting) No

Ezra: (continuing talking) Cos I know you said you weren't but, huh? (Realising he's already answered)

David: I said we're not, she's all yours.

Ezra: Cool, thanks.

David: Anytime.

Dinning room - next morning

No one is talking and Shelby is avoiding Scott eyes.

Daisy: Where's David?

Ezra: (taking a bite of his toast.) Left this morning.

Daisy: Why didn't he say goodbye?

Ezra: (still eating) He did to us. I guess he's not the guy you thought he was hey.

Daisy: Yeh.

Ezra: There's plenty more fish in the sea. (Smiling at her hopefully, she doesn't notice.)

(Shelby having finished her breakfast stands up and goes to wash up, Scott follows her.)

Kitchen

Scott: What's wrong?

Shelby: (snapping) Nothing.

Scott: Yes there is! Why are you avoiding me?

Shelby: I'm not!

Scott: Fine. (He walks out.)
