August 6th AKA (Day two in the bunker) part 2 from Shelby's POV 

Now that it's getting later in the day I assume I will be taken in for my interview soon. Although I'm in no rush because when I'm done with my interview that means it's go time and  I am extremely nervous about how we are gonna pull this off. I just need to breathe and try to calm down I'm sure it will be fine. I haven't been so worked up in a while because normally when I'm having emotional turmoil of any kind Toni helps calm me down. But that's why I'm doing this, for her, to keep her safe, to get her out of here no matter what it means for me. My little peep talk boots me with some confidence...that is until I hear the knock on my door, then the pit in my stomach comes right back.

"Hi, Shelby they need you for your interview." Says one of the orderlies

"Okay" I say as I grab my crutches and exit my room 

I follow her down the hallway and into a room. When I walk in I see agent young and Dr.Faber sitting behind a table. I continue in and take a seat in front of them.

"Hi there" I say with a grin 

Throughout the interview, they ask me a bunch of questions about the island which I expected but they were also asking a lot about our relationships and dynamics. I gave several half-hearted answers but didn't mention my relationship with Toni at all because I don't want it getting back to my parent in any way, at least not before I'm ready. After about half an hour of the interview, they start tiptoeing around things like the shark attack or our starvation period but they won't say it or what they want to know, they want me to fill in the blanks. At this point, I am getting fed up and just won't answer any more stupid fucking questions. 

"Shelby," Dr.Faber says looking for an answer

"I'm done talking" I reply angrily

"Sorry, we still have a while left and a lot of ground to cover." He snaps back

Leah was right they want to know way too many weird deep things they are so desperate for me to talk, I mean this whole thing is just wrong. I have to see Leah and tell her she was so right these people are not here to help us. 

"You think I give a shit? I'm done" I say even more aggressively

"Alright let's just wrap this up" Agent young suggests

"No, we're not setting that precedent, Agent Young." Faber says cutting him off 

I need to stop their bickering and get myself a way to see Leah. 

"look at how desperate you are for me to spill, and I know things that you would die to find out, things that would blow your fucking mind, but I'm not saying a word until you let me see her. " I say demandingly to the men

"Well, the quarantine order is still in place, and we're not in the business of bargaining, so moving on." Faber starts to say 

Before he can finish I cut him off again " IM NOT SAYING A WORD...UNTIL YOU LET ME SEE HER." I yell

"You're asking to see Toni, right?" Agent young asks

 Why the hell would he assume that I haven't said a damn thing about her. 

"Not her, Leah." I say getting even more pissed 

eventually, I get the men to agree, but I know I can't just tell her in front of these guys so I ask to go to my room to pee first. When I get to my room I bring my paper close to my chest so the cameras can't see and I write Leah a quick note.

You were right 

When I get to Leah's room I run in for a hug while we are hugging I quickly slip the note into her shirt and leave her room.
