Monday
7:52 am, Aug 2
Alex: ugh.... this hallway stinks, I think the phobias of this place is starting to come back...Oh my god! Look at-
Terrin/Jason: "ALEX!" they said as everyone was staring at them
• The hallway got awkward and silent, due to the eyes staring at them as if they were something wrong with them. Even though everyone knew who the three were, but there was only one person who is still on them
Alex: "great...now you got everyone looking at us" he whispered
Jason: dude it was your fault...
Alex: my fault!?
Terrin: kept on talking since we left the house
Alex: well, my bad, I didn't remember asking your guys opinion
Jason: ugh whatever, I'm too tired for this
Terrin: yea let's just go get our schedule and-
Liam: "HAHA! IS THAT DUMB AND DUMBER I SEE!?" he yelled coming down the hallway
• Everyone who was in the hallway even the teachers all, went away when they saw Liam and the football team came down the hallway
Alex: uh oh...
Jason: great...he's here
Terrin: this dude...
Alex: so, I'm going to go now ill-
Terrin: "oh no you don't" he said grabbing his backpack
Jason: just act cool and-
Liam: "hey dumb and dumber! Long time no see haha!" he said grabbing both Terrin's and Jason's neck
Liam: oh yea, you too....um what should I call you?
Alex: I don't even talk to you
Liam: DUMBEST! Haha yes, perfect!
Alex: I hate this school
Liam: now that were here, how are my two favorite boys doing?
Jason: back off dude
Terrin: yea don't act like were friends
Liam: aw aren't we though? Oh, yea no haha, we were. Until you dumped football for that girl crap!
Alex: hey! It's not girl-
Liam: shut up!
Liam: you guys, ditched the team just for something useless, now you have to face the consequences
Terrin: we've been putting up with this sense January
Jason: yea bro just be the bigger person, and let go
Liam: yea...maybe your right. Or Maybe! You guys are just DUMB for thinking I'm going to fall for something that stupid haha! Right guys!?
• The rest of the football team started laughing with Liam, the rest of the guys came in to see what was happening
Camil: what is going on!?
Alex: ugh it's about time you guys came!...
Cameron: why is Liam and them here?
Moon: probably messing with them again...?
Alex: yea, for an attractive guy he's kind of a jerk
Camil: he's more than a jerk Alex
Leo: well, we need to do something dude...
Camil: "move" he said walking up to Liam
Cameron: "what is this girl doing..." he whispered to himself
Camil: LIAM!
Liam: what the...who is this?
Terrin: Camil...?
Jason: what are you doing?
Camil: were tired of you being bored and messing with us just because you got pent up feelings and emotions, grow some balls and go find something to do with yourself for once! And also, I hope you find some help, you need it.
Camil: "let's go guys" she said grabbing the boy's arms
Liam: oh, now I remember haha...you're that girl that's with them, the leader, right? Haha hey is it just me or you've been eating more than usual. I hope you start a diet there haha, you need it
• Camil froze when she heard those words come out his mouth, and she couldn't help but feel as the insecurities were hitting her right then and there
Moon: oh no...
Cameron: what...?
Leo: why is she just standing there?
Jason: "hey Camil..." he whispered
Terrin: don't listen to him
Camil: ...lets go
Liam: yea that's what I thought! And as the new Q1 I hope to see you at the game Jason! Haha
Jason: what...
Terrin: ignore him Jason...
Jason: but he said-
Camil: Let it Go Jason!
Jason: okay...jeez
Moon: Camil...
Camil: I'm going...just um...you guys go ahead without me, and tell Bryce and Austin I said hey when they get here...okay?
Moon: but are you-
Camil: "I'm fine moon, I promise...I'll see you later" she said holding moon's hand
Moon: okay...
Alex: "okay...what just happened" he said holding his hair back
Leo: I have no idea...is she okay
Moon: "obviously she's not Leo!" she said watching Camil walk away from them
Leo: oh...okay
Jason: she didn't have to do that
Terrin: exactly...that's why she's our leader, but why did she do that...?
Jason: what?
Alex: freeze up...
Leo: moon?
Moon: hey...um did Bryce and Austin text back yet
• As moon ignored and pretended that she didn't hear Leo, the guys knew that there was something going on with Camil. But they also knew that they had to respect that, so they got the only person who could maybe help her
Leo: yea...um they said there were going to come from the front, you want to go see?
Moon: yea please
Alex: "Cameron..." he whispered
Cameron: what?
Jason: go see her
Cameron: come again?
Terrin: go talk to camil and see what's wrong with her
Cameron: No
Alex: what!? Why not?
Cameron: moon ignored you guys for a reason, she was protecting camil, if she doesn't want us to know anything. Let's keep it that way
Jason: dude, she's our friend, well maybe not to you but-
Cameron: stop saying that
Terrin: we will tell her that you like her
Alex: ha! See! He didn't say anything
Cameron: you know nothing
The rest: yea okay
Cameron: ...some brats you guys are...i don't even know where she's at
Alex: well, you must know some place... right?
Cameron: ...maybe
8:15 am
• Cameron knew exactly where she would've been, at least a strong hint. All he had to do was think about the first time they met. He saw her sitting, playing on the piano, breaking down in tears
Cameron: "I knew it..." he thought closing the door behind him
Camil: "oh um...um I'm sorry this room is occupied" she said wiping the tears off her face
Cameron: not when the door is open
Camil: Cameron...!? Why...ugh you're not supposed to be here, "not like this" she whispered to herself
Cameron: well, I'm here, so deal with it
Camil: ...please go...I don't have time to be petty with you
Cameron: "good, cause I'm staying" he said sitting down next to her
Camil: what...?
Cameron: listen ...you hear that key?
Camil: C8?
Cameron: and this one?
Camil: A1?
Cameron: "here..." he said grabbing her hand slowly. Now play it
Camil: what?
Cameron: Do It
Camil: oh...um okay
• Cameron watches her play the two keys over and over again, when really, he would catch himself staring at her dried tears instead of the her playing the piano
Cameron: stop
Camil: what are we doing Cameron?
Cameron: I want you to do it one more time
Camil: okay...there
Cameron: How did you feel? With the high and low key
Camil: ...one felt deeper while one felt more lighthearted
Cameron: there's a difference, you see where im coming from
Camil: not really
Cameron: look...im not the type of person to talk these thing out with...Actually I only showed my emotions one time, ever since...I would always use the piano to let it all out
Camil: I see...
Cameron: I don't know what happened back there but I heard what he said...everyone did
Camil: I know...you don't have to remind me again
Cameron: why did you let him get to you?
Camil: because its true...I need to go on a diet, exercise...or something
Cameron: camil-
Camil: "I mean look at me! What do you see! Exactly nothing!" she said breaking down crying....im nothing and that's how it'll stay-
• He couldn't help but feel the pent u anger he had, not with Camil but with the fact that she has that mindset in her and him having no idea this was happening. He had no choice but to think that she really needs him and the rest to be there for her
Cameron: camil-
Camil: "I mean look at me! What do you see! Exactly nothing!" she said breaking down crying. I'm nothing and that's how it'll stay-
Cameron: "CAMIL! Please....stop doing this to yourself" he said holding her in his arms to calm her down
Camil: Im tired Cameron...
Cameron: I know...and im here to fix that, and I promise I won't let you down
Camil: you...promise?
Cameron: "yes, and im never going to let go of that promise..." he whispered holding her tightly
Cameron: never...
8:36 am
Moon: where are they!?
Leo: hey stop yelling at me, I didn't do anything!
Alex: oh boy...
Terrin: this is exactly what im talking about, next thing you know the band is going to breakup because of this relationship stuff
Jason: speaking of that... "where Cameron?" he whispered to Alex and Terrin
Alex: I don't know...he should-
Cameron: hey
Terrin: woah! Dude...where did you come from!
Camil: haha...that's kind've his thing
Cameron: yea haha...
Alex: it's about time you two came back
Jason: are you okay? We've been-
Camil: im okay Jason, don't worry haha...
Moon: "V!? Oh...I've been worried sick about you" she said running up to hug her
Leo: it has literally been like 15 minutes
Moon: shut up! Figure out why they are taking so long!
Leo: "fine! I want a hug too after!" he said texting Bryce and Austin
Moon: are you okay, and don't lie Rudolph's nose is on your face
Camil: I might've cried but you know, first day things...
Moon: ah yea I remember, well im praying we have all classes together, I don't want you to be alone at a time like this
Cameron: she won't be
Moon: I know I was talking to-
Cameron: okay
Moon: did you know you're so rude
Cameron: "sorry u feels that way" he said shrugging his shoulders
Leo: hey they said they should be pulling up any minute
Alex: isn't that them right there?
The rest: oh wow...
Camil: he really came...haha that...that made me laugh a little
Cameron: same, I mean I know he agreed but...he actually came?
Jason: look at what Austin is wearing! Oh my god...
Terrin: is that a turtle neck...dude haha
Alex: I can't believe im saying this but he is really attractive

Jason: haha dude, chill we were joking, and I won't lie...you do look good
Terrin: yea haha better than we do
Cameron: you two just dressed up in sweats
moon: literally haha
• As they were all talking, Bryce was thinking about how he was going to sleep in class because of how much he didn't want to be there. Until he saw someone that caught his eye, that was when DeJa'Vu hit him
Bryce: "who is that?" he said pointing to where the girl was at
The rest: who?
Bryce: her, that red head over that
Camil: oh that's Sarah Evans
Bryce: Sarah...?
Moon: the one with the glasses, right?
Bryce: yea...
Camil: oh, yea that's Sarah and the one behind her, is her brother Elliot
Alex: ouuu someone already has a crush
The rest: ouuu haha
Austin: haha Sarah and Bryce sitting in a-
Bryce: "don't even finish that line or ill break this turtle neck of yours..." he said grabbing onto Austin shirt
Austin: haha don't worry guys, he does this like ALL the time back home
Cameron: I don't know if I can imagine Bryce liking someone
The rest: me either
Alex: but it's fun to imagine things haha
Moon: your right
Camil: guys look...this is where our junior year start....
Moon: there is no telling what going to happen this year...
Jason: let's just hope it was better than last semester
• They all looked up at the front of the building and took a look at what could possibly be, what this year has in store for them...and most importantly if there band will ever take off as they dreamed it to be
Leo: oh...well there goes the bell
Alex: here we are... back again
Jason: you guys ready?
Bryce: I want to go home
Austin: mom said she will kick you out, if you don't come to school with me
Bryce: oh yea, she did say that...
Moon: just positive thoughts okay guys
Terrin: yea, nothing worse could happen right?
Leo: right...
Camil: been ready since my breakdown this morning, I have nothing to lose
Cameron: "we'll be fine, as long as we have each other" he said holding Camil's hand
Camil: yes we have each other, always
Camil: Now... lets go do this
