Author's Note: Sorry this chappy's so short. There's honestly only one scene with Shelby in the entire episode, so most of it's made up… and late at night for that matter. I hope you all enjoy it anyway. Next time it's Seduction, the best of the best! Many reviews, please!

"This week was insane!" Juliette says, bright and early Saturday morning, as we all leave the dorm and head off to the cafeteria for breakfast.

"Lots of drama," Daisy says.

"So true, well, the weekend's finally here," I conclude.

"Oh, guys, Auggie's leaving. He's going home for a while, I'm just gonna go say bye, I'll see you guys in a minute," Queenie says, running off to go see him off.

"Is it just me, or is she totally transparent?" I ask. Kat gives me a dirty look and walks in the cafeteria.

"Transparent," Daisy confirms.

"Thank you!" I yawn, walking into the cafeteria with Daisy. "Wonder what kind of beautiful feast they're serving us today," I wonder while standing in the breakfast line with Kat and Daisy. We all grab our food and make for the table. "Uh, where's the rest of the Brady bunch?" I ask Ezra as we sit.

"Auggie's leaving, Scott's on wood chopping duty. They had to get up early," he explains.

"So did you, apparently," Daisy says, noticing his finished breakfast.

"I saw Auggie off," he says with a glint in his eye.

"I don't wanna know," I mumble, trying to force the rubbery food down.

"Hey guys! Isn't Auggie lucky? Gets to be going home for a weekend," Juliette sighs happily, sliding into a chair.

"I wish you'd go home," I say under my breath.

"Shelby!" Kat warns.

"What? Are you a counselor now?" I ask, looking at her, and smirking. She just rolls her eyes and turns back to her food.

"Cliffhangers!" Peter says, popping right up next to us.

"Yes, my master?" I ask, smiling up at him. He chooses to ignore me. Fine, be that way!

"I've got some investors coming in from New York tomorrow, so I'd like you four," he says, pointing out all the girls in the group, "to hang a banner in the lodge."

"Why us? Why don't the guys do it?" I ask.

"Auggie's gone, and Scott's in the wood shed for the morning," he explains. "Enjoy. The banner's in the lodge, on the balcony." With that he walks away.

"Did feminism happen?" I ask sarcastically, looking around.

"Sucks to be you," Ezra says, getting up and leaving. Yeah, it really does. We all finish our breakfasts, and make for the lodge, slowly but surely. Sadly, it's not across campus, but in the next room.

"I call staying down here and telling you three how to hang!" Daisy calls.

"I officially hate you," I say. She flashes a bright grin at me, and waves her hand. I follow Jules and Kat up the stairs to the balcony.

We grab the banner and fling it over the side. I'm holding one of the corners, Kate's in the middle, and Jules is on the far side.

"A little more to the left," Daisy calls from the first floor.

"Which left?" Juliette asks. Well, let's see, which left would Daisy be looking at it from?

"My left, of course. The New Yorkers may wanna read this," she says, as I pull my end. "A little professionalism here, I don't wanna be hanging this banner all day." What? You think we do? I'm looking over the edge of the banister, trying to read the sign to see if it works out. "Let's grasp the concept of up, people," she says. Kate jerks it up, whacking me slightly in the face.

As we're standing up here, trying to get this stupid thing hung, Daisy talking to Freakin'.

"Is it straight yet?" Juliette asks.

"Down an inch, do you think you can handle that?" Daisy replies. Geez, stop being so bitchy! Wait! That's me! I've taught her well!

We put the banner down a little, as she turns around and starts talking to Freakin. Suddenly she just walks away.

"Hey! Where's Sabrina going?" I ask, bending over the rail. "What'd you say to her, Freakin'?" I add, pointing out the link. He stands there stupidly, holding what seems to be an egg.

When he looks back to us, we all slump down, my arms are hanging over the banister.

"Come on, let's just get this done and over with!" I sigh. Kate pulls up her end and we hang it. "Screw it if this isn't perfect. We're not perfect, so why should our hanging job be?"

"That's not the right approach Shelby!" Kate says as I leave.

"Well, it's the only one I've got."

**************************************************************************************

Nothing else happened for the rest of the day. Honestly, absolutely nothing happened. That night, we had rubbery pizza for dinner, which was surprisingly chewable.

The next day, Sunday, is no better. Peter's New Yorkers came in, were assholes and left. Whatever. I have a feeling this isn't the last of them though.

**************************************************************************************

Monday morning, at breakfast, the guys are no where to be found.

"Guys, what happened to our boys?" I ask, sitting down.

"Community service, I heard Peter talking about it this yesterday on the phone," Kat says.

"Eavesdropper," Daisy says, smiling.

"Wait, what are they doing community service for?" Princess asks.

"Beats me," Kat says.

"Same here," Daisy adds.

"How should I know?" I say when she looks at me. "I hardly know half the stuff going on here half the time," I explain. It's so true, I'm always in the dark. It sucks to no extent!

"I guess we'll find out when they come back," Kat sighs, piling food into her mouth.

**************************************************************************************

Later that night, after a long day of classes and lounging around the lodge doing jack shit, I end up in the dorms with Kat, waiting for the other two crazy kids.

"So, did you find out what they ended up in town for?" Kat asks.

"Nope," I say, reading my English assignment. "Why?" I ask, looking up. "Did you?"

"I was talking to Ezra, and he says Auggie got in trouble at home," she says.

"Okay… and?" I say.

"They were just picking up trash and came up to this building with a tag on it… you know a big—"

"I know what a tag is, Kat," I cut off. These people really don't know me. God, my motel was tagged at one point. See, when your best friend is a coke addict, dealers get pissed if she doesn't pay up. I've had to deal with some nasty shit over time… it ended up boiling down to Patti and I doing some… stuff for free. I hated her for a long time after that.

"Okay, well, they saw one, and Auggie freaked out."

"So?"

"You do know that Auggie was in a gang right?"

"No, I didn't," I say, totally unenthusiastic. I knew gang members. One of Patti's boyfriends was one. He kind of punched out the novelty.

"Okay, well there's your tidbit of gossip for the night," she says, disappointed that I didn't react the way Juliette did when she told her. I was walking by and heard her gasping and say No way! Auggie? I put two and two together… it's a gift.

**************************************************************************************

The next day after lunch, during spare, I walk into the lodge, seeing Daisy looking pensive.

"What's up with you?" I ask, flopping down into a couch.

"Oh, nothing." My eyes wander to something on the couch.

"Tarot cards?" I ask.

"Yeah, want your fortune told?" she asks mysteriously, cracking a smile. I start laughing.

"You're shitting me, right?" I ask, still laughing. She shakes her head. "No, I don't believe in that fate crap. Look, I got Law, I'll talk to you later," I sigh, grabbing my books.

"Have fun in class," she laughs. I hate the fact that she doesn't have class when I do.

**************************************************************************************

That night, when Juliette walks in, she's crying.

"What happened to her?" Daisy asks.

"Search me," Kat says.

"Don't know, don't care."

It's only the next day that we find out that she and Scott broke up.

My time has come. Watch out Scott, I'm gonna get you!
