CHAPTER 17

So : Peter, I can't have children.

P : Oh I'm really sorry Sophie.

He took her in his arms and she cried. He had tears forming in his eyes but tried not to cry. He wanted to be strong for her.

So : That day I was alone with Shelby and I opened up to her and she promised not to tell anybody.

P : So besides everything I thought of her we can really trust her !

So : Yes. She's been very nice to me. She found good words to say and she did everything to make me feel good and less sad. I couldn't tell you because you were talking about having kids and I didn't want to kill your dream.

P : You're not killing any dreams because my biggest one is to be with you ! I love you more than anyone else and I couldn't live without you.

So : I feel the same way about you.

P : Then everything's fine !

So : Are you sure you're not disappointed ?

P : Disappointed of what ? Of loving the most beautiful woman on earth ? Of having you by my side every single day ? Of sharing my life with you ?

So : I love you Peter, I mean I really do love you !

P : Me too.

They kissed and he wiped her tears away. She was glad she told him. She was scared of his reaction but she must have known he wasn't the kind of guy who dumps you when everything's not as scheduled in his mind.

P : We should go back in my office. I don't really love the idea of leaving Scott and Shelby alone.

So : Peter you don't think they could do it again ?

P : Of course not, well I hope not but I don't know what's on their minds so we'd better not wait too long and find out.

So : You're right, lets go.

P : I wonder what they've been doing since we left.

So : It's only been what ? 15 minutes ?

P : Yeah but a lot can happen in a short time.

So :We'll fix that soon.

…

Scott and Shelby were thinking about something. They were looking at the place and their eyes stopped on the computer and the papers next to it.

S : Scott are you thinking at what I'm thinking ?

Sc : I think so.

S : Wanna see what's written in your file ?

Shelby stood up and walked towards Peter's seat and looked at the paper.

Sc : Shelby I don't think we should…

S : What you don't wanna know ? I wanna know what's written in my file and what commentaries Peter added.

Sc : Yeah me too, but we'd better hurry before they come back.

S : Stop talking then and help me find our files in all this paper.

Without saying anything Scott began digging in all the papers and files from the other students. After a few seconds they finally found theirs and opened them. They were kind of big. They began reading. They couldn't believe what was written. Peter's commentaries weren't always that good. Shelby looked angry so Scott took a look in her file. She didn't even notice that. He began laughing.

S : What is it Scott ?

Sc : It's funny Peter wrote that you were easy irritable and you need to get a lot of attention. He also wrote that your behavior's not that simple to live with and you can get on everybody's nerves… You love to annoy the others by giving them nicknames like "Princess" for Juliette…

S : I don't think it's funny !

Sc : Well for me it is. Don't say that's not the true !

S : I hate you Scott !

Sc : No you don't !

S : Yes I do.

The angrier she got the more he was laughing. Then he took her and kissed her. At first she thought about pushing him away but it felt so good she couldn't do that.

…

Math class was over for today so the cliffhangers were on a break once again. They had 30 minutes before English class. They were talking about all and nothing and still thinking about Scott and Shelby. Sure they loved when something was happening to people from their group. It was always nice to have something to talk about. But there was more, they were curious.

At the same time they were happy they didn't get a punishment for kissing outside.

E : Can't believe they didn't gave us shuns or room restriction for what they saw !

D : They were too busy with Scott and Shelby.

A : We could thank them when they're back.

J : So do you think we can kiss again ?

A : No. Maybe Peter and Sophie are not here but Frank and others are and they can give us punishment.

D : So no kissing for now. Don't wanna have shuns or kitchen duty.

E : So what can we do now ? We've got 30 minutes before our next class.

J : What about continuing the "Truth or Dare" we began earlier ?

D : Oh no !

J : Of course you say no because you didn't answer the question about you and Ezra having sex.

E : That's none of your business.

J : Ok, bad players, lets do something else then

…

S : Ok you got me, now lets see what's written in your file !

Sc : No !

S (taking it from his hands) : Yes. You read mine so now it's mine turn to read yours.

Sc : You don't wanna read the other files first ? Like the princess's one or Daisy's ?

S : I didn't think you were so curious Scott !

Sc : Don't try to say you're not. You're like me.

She didn't say anything and began reading his file and smiling.

S : Wow ! Seems that I'm not the only Peter wrote funny commentaries about, huh ?

Sc: Yes I guess so.

S : Come on Scott, that's funny. See that line : "Sometimes behave like a leader… doesn't have confidence in himself… irritable… get into fights when he's angry… wants things to be the way he wants…"

Sc : Really funny Shelby !

S : What ? Peter wrote that, I didn't.

Sc : Same about your file !

S : I didn't think Peter was thinking such things about us.

Sc : Yeah me neither.

S : Eh he left the computer on, maybe there're other stuff about us.

They hadn't seen someone standing at the back of the office, next to the door.
