Jessy took a drink and placed it by her lips. She pretended to drink it, being careful to leave a pumpkin juice moustache left so that it won't be obvious that she didn't drink anything. Jessy didn't feel like drinking something sweet like pumpkin juice, which was weird since after the Skele-gro, she wanted the taste to go. But pumpkin juice sounds sickly to Jessy.
Jessy had stayed quiet since the Professor came, she tried not to make any eye contact since she felt that it was her fault too. Ohh, what would mum say? She'll be terribly disappointed... Jessy thought, she'll probably get grounded but that doesn't matter. What matters is that her friends were ok and no-one got severly injured - no-one except her.
The guilt was building up in Jessy, she couldn't let her Ginny and Kasey take the blame. Finally, Jessy blurted out, "No! Ginny, Kasey, it wasn't any of your fault. It was mine, I started that dare game because I was feelnig bored and I'm sorry for leading you into trouble. It's all my fault, I deserved breaking my leg; I deserve the pain from it. So, you could just punish me, I'm sorry..." Jessy started crying silently into her hands, she didn't want to look at the Nurse or Professor Ana. She just wanted to be left alone.
