terrin: no one says, lets hurry on over

Austin: oh...lets go do this!

terrin: haha, better

3:36 pm

• As they were all walking down the path of downtown park in Bellevue, leo, moon, camil and cameron have a moment

leo: hey um...moon

moon: yea...?

leo: can I tell you something...?

moon: haha sure

leo: okay so... last time I was trying to tell you this, I couldn't because with all the interruptions that would come in between us and now I think is the right time to tell you that-

moon: I like you too...

leo: what....?

moon: I like you leo, I really really like you, ever since we were like...haha 5 or something

leo: are you kidding me!

moon: hey shhh...haha

leo: haha sorry im just...hah aim relived I thought

moon: you thought what?

leo: I thought you didn't feel the same way...

moon: really? ...I thought I made it obvious

leo: I mean camil would make it obvious, but you know

moon/leo: "that's camil haha" they said together

moon: yep that's why I love that girl haha?

leo: totally haha, plus I get it, you guys are like sisters

moon: exactly haha

leo: "can I...?" he said as he held his hand out

moon: "haha yes" she said as their hands intertwined

leo: okay haha...

moon: can I... put my head on your shoulder?

leo: yes haha...you may

moon: "haha okay" she said as she layed her head on him

camil: "dude omg!!! haha look! look!" she said squealing up and down pointing at moon and leo

cameron: I know I see, calm down would you!?

camil: oh my....do you think they finally confessed their feelings for each other and now they are together!

cameron: um...I guess?

camil: okay dude, whats wrong with you...

camerom: what?

camil: im not going to have your depressed aura effect my happy vibe

cameron: it doesn't have too if you just go away...

camil: cam...im not leaving you, not unless you tell me what's wrong

cameron: no...

camil: Mr jones! Mr jones! Mr jonessssss

cameron: okay shutup! please...

camil: cmon...talk to me

• as camil wrapped her arms around his and started at him intensely, Cameron felt something he never did before, the feeling as if he can trust her with everything...just as if he can give himself away

cameron: don't look at me like that...

camil: and why not?

cameron: ...its weird

camil: and your acting weird, stop stalling and tell me what's wrong

cameron: fine...its Layla

camil: her again!? we agreed-

cameron: that we weren't going to have her affect us...I know

camil: then what happened...

cameron: look...

camil: is that the copy....

cameron: drive? yea... it is

cameron: she said I can do whatever I want with it, but it would be no use

camil: why would she say that?

cameron: because basically my dad has me wrapped around his finger...even if I wanted to become somebody...it wouldn't matter

camil: is that what she said? or is that what your ego and pride is telling you...?

cameron: I don't know anymore...she just so

camil: a brat? haha

cameron: "mmm yea..." he said with a smile

camil: can I see the drive?

cameron: yea here

camil: look...don't have anyone ever tell you you're not good enough or you're not capable of doing something you dream of...it's not worth it

cameron: "I know..." he said staring in camil's eyes

cameron: but what if...she's right...?

camil: ...then let's prove her wrong

cameron: how...?

camil: with this... Hey! everyone! stop walking and come over here

cameron: what are you doing?

camil: keith? bryce? any chance you brought a camera with you

bryce: no, I didn't...why?

uncle keith: I did! I always bring one with me

camil: perfect! starting now were going to have our dreams be heard

alex: im so lost... what...?

Austin: does this mean...

terrin: were going back?

Jason: haha, were starting we left off...

moon: wait...camil?

leo: so, what change your mind...

camil: it was...

• camil looked over at cameron, knowing that she couldn't expose him like that...but what she didn't know whether it was because of what he's going through...or if it was something else, she felt inside

camil: ...let's just say it's an opportunity worth taking

cameron: "...thank you" he whispered at camil

camil: your welcome...

bryce: okay so how are we going to do this unplanned situation

camil: with this

leo: hey isn't that the-

bryce: "THE DRIVE'S COPY!" he said as he tried snatching it

camil: hey! back off!

moon: where did you find that!?

cameron: Layla had it...she basically gave it back to me

Jason: why...? I mean that's a bit suspicious if you ask me

terrin: same you know we can't trust her

alex: haha I never liked her

Austin: I don't know much about your sister cam-

cameron: stepsister

Austin: yes sorry, stepsister, but why did she give it to you?

cameron: she thought it wasn't worth keeping anymore...anyway listen to camil she has something to say

camil: thanks cam

camil: okay so you guys remember how we said that for now on we were just going to have fun

moon: yea but what does this have to do with anything

camil: cam look! haha it's so beautiful...

cameron: yea...they are

• First it was camil being there for him, her hugging him unexpectedly, now seeing her react to the lights, when all he would see is the lights reflecting in her eyes. cameron couldn't deny how he felt between them...but he knew he had to keep it under wraps, at least that's what the voice inside him was telling him

bryce: haha are you seeing this keith...?

uncle keith: yes I am bryce, "it looks wonderful" he said holding the camera

leo: hey everyone join in!

camil: hey moon get the Polaroid!

alex: I better not look ugly in this

terrin: no promises

moon: okay everyone say merry Christmas!

the rest: Merry Christmas!

• as everyone was trying skate back to each other , they all huddle together including Keith and Bryce, moon picked up the polaroid and took the group picture, not for the video that they had planned but to keep it as a memory that they would all remember
