Last Scenes

Because of the book's former incompleteness, a lot of characters abruptly disappeared throughout the portion of the novel that had been discovered. This page explains the last scenes of the characters before Chapters 13, 14, 15, and 16 were found.

Last Scene/Mention
Shelby is last seen at lunch midway through the twelfth and final chapter, Love Hurts when Don discusses Kayla and Bryan Haskins' relationship. She serves no purpose and is just filler.

Last Line
Shelby's last line is, "Oh, I have to use the bathroom." She says this before Spanish a little bit before the lunch scene.

Mariah Book
Mariah is famously known for her lack of lines and importance compared to Shelby and Aleksa because of the author's lack of detail, so this as a whole could possibly be inaccurate.

Last Mention/Appearance
Mariah appears last at lunch in the middle of the final chapter, Chapter 12, Love Hurts. Don is discussing Kayla's disloyalty, having to do with her newly-developed relationship with Bryan Haskins. She has no purpose in this scene, and she is really just a space filler.
