Last time:You don't know how much you mean to me…you are one of the most important people in my life and I would do anything to make you forgive me.

Christy handed it back to Joy, who was still hugging her toy. She leaned down to give her a hug.

"Dave wouldn't do anything like that…it was Stacy…"

"I know, I know it's just…I was so shocked, you know?" She said half hiccuping.

Christy nodded and went to turn on the wall heater to warm up the cold room.

The weekend ended as quickly as it had started.

On Monday, the weather was still wet and windy. It seemed that none of the students were in the mood to study at all. It was like that for the entire week, as well as the following weekend. On Saturday evening Dave had visited their dorm, wanting to talk to Joy. Christy left and went down to the library to do her Biology homework on Cells.

She stepped inside where it was warm and quite empty. Christy spotted John sitting hunched over a table near the middle, which came as a shock to her. John wouldn't normally be found in the library. She had hardly seen him all week, apart from Biology lessons where he had been moved to the front for talking too much.

"Hey," he said, grinning as she sat across from him. "Coming to do your Bio homework?"

"Yeah, don't think I can put it off anymore can I," she sighed, taking out her books she had brought.

"This week has been so tiring," he said. "Planning on going to the bar in a few weeks, cause we are allowed one trip a month out of this school. I want you to come."

"So, I have no choice?" She laughed.

He mocked a thinking pose, and said "No, not really."

"Where is it?"

"Quite a long way from here…cause there ain't anything round here, but yeah. It's cool."

The room became gradually darker as they worked. Christy saw Stacy walking towards their table.

"Hey John," she said, stopping behind his chair and putting her hands on his shoulders. "What's up?"

"Stacy, you are the last person we want to see right now," he replied, bringing his hands up to remove her fingers from his back.

"I was only coming to talk to you," she said, casting Christy a dark look. "Do you hate me that much?"

"You'd be surprised," he muttered.

Christy giggled.

"Come on, Cena. Just like old times…"

Christy tried not to be interested and continued working.

"You know…we were so good back then…what happened?"

"Stacy, for the last time, I don't like you, ok?"

"I'm sure that's not what you think, Cena…"

Stacy stalked off, as John returned to his paper. Christy could tell he was looking at her. Trying not to sound too nosy, she asked, "So…did you and Stacy go out or something?"

He was silent for a second. "Uh, yeah but this was ages ago…don't know why I did…"

Christy was both shocked and amused at this piece of information. And, although she hated admitting it to herself, slightly jealous.

"I don't like her anymore…" he said, trying to convince her.

"I'd be surprised if you did."

"I'm serious! I like…uh…"

He looked down on his table and said nothing else.

At 9:30pm, they both headed back up to their dorms. Inside, the window was open to air out the last remaining odour of alcohol as they hadn't had a chance to air it out. But they had to face the consequences of an extremely cold room. Torrie was asleep on her bed, Lita below lying on her back listening to music on her headphones. Jackie was sitting in a beanbag and Joy was sitting on the window seat again.

Christy hopped onto her bunk and fell asleep almost instantly.
