Monday
10:15 am, Dec 6
Camil: hey guys, im going to the restroom, and getting some sweet tea. You want anything?
Moon: Yes! Can you get me some classic chips?
Camil: Haha Sure B. Blair?
Blair: nope, im good
Camil: okay
• As Camil walks out the classroom, she bumps into someone who she least expected. But little did she know, what this person was about to do
Liam: "hi Camil" he said smiling
Camil: oh...hey Liam
Liam: so...what are you doing?
Camil: "going to the restroom?" she said trying to walk away from him
Liam: oh okay. Well, I was thinking maybe you want to-
Camil: No
Liam: come on, you didn't even let me finish
Camil: I don't care
Liam: oh yes you do honey. Come on I mean we are supposed to be together in the play
Camil: okay, and?
Liam: let me make it up to you, besides...it's not like you're with someone already...right?
Camil: "...No...im not" she said looking down thinking
Liam: "look...I really like your cam...can't you see that?" he said brushing her hair out the way
Camil: get your hands off of me...
Liam: "feisty! Haha i like that! Well, im all yours when your ready sweetheart" he said laughing as he walked away
Camil: "im not yours..." she said as she watched him walk away
• Camil comes back to the classroom after her meeting with Liam. She felt uneasy by what Liam was doing, and she know that there was probably something up but...all she would think about was Cameron. And since that didn't end well...she should might as well move on for the better. But first she had to talk to someone who she knew, would understand
Camil: "guys..." she said sitting down at her desk
Moon/Blair: what's up?
Camil: um...there something I need to tell you guys. And Blair, you might not get it at first because well...you have a lot to catch on but moon?
Moon: oh my god...what is it?
Blair: "hmm well it sounds like it's going to be interesting, go ahead" she said sitting back in her chair
Camil: on that date we went on Saturday...you know how I said that neither me or Cameron made the first move?
Moon: yea...
Blair: Nope
Camil: "well, I lied...I did make the first move" she said twiddling with her fingers
Moon: oh my god!
Art teacher: Moon!?
Moon: sorry! "what!?" she whispered to Camil
Camil: and he didn't feel the same way...so yea
Blair: oh man...
Moon: "WHAT THE-" she said standing up
Art teacher: Moon Williams! Do you want detention!?
Moon: no ma'am...I'll be quiet now
Blair: moon is you crazy? Haha
Camil: yea she can be haha...
Moon: im sorry? I need to process all of this...i don't even know what to call it
Camil: call it nothing...I mean there was nothing ever there, right?
Blair: don't talk like that...
Moon: yea stop that! Look...i know there was something there...something IS there. I might be crazy but im not stupid
Camil: I know moon...but he said it himself. And im not going to go chasing anyone when it's obviously clear that they don't feel no way for me
Blair: period
Moon: but Camil...
Camil: it's okay, im okay B... but I think it's time to just move on, right?
Blair: yes
Moon: No!? No no Camil, your meant to be with Cameron...like it was supposed to me and Leo then you and Cameron
Camil: I know moon but...that didn't work out. You're lucky to have someone like Leo but Cameron already made his mind up...besides someone already asked me out...
Blair/Moon: "What!?" they said shockingly
Camil: yea...it was Liam and I know I know, he is a senior jerk
Moon: yea a player V!
Blair: yea im kind of with you on this one moon...
Camil: im not taking his offer...im just thinking about...im not going to do it
Moon: better not! But...if you do end up going crazy enough to go out with him...you have to tell us, okay? At least me
Camil: "yes, I promise B" she said handing out her pinky
Blair: yeah, and oh! And if he does end up doing something stupid...I will beat him up for you
• Once Blair said that, the whole class went silent. Moon and Camil wasn't surprised to say though. Knowing Blair will protect and defend anyone who crosses her, and who she cares about
Blair: what? I can beat someone in here too, if you all keep staring at me...
Camil/moon: Haha!
Camil: no Blair, there will be no need for that but...yea just in case haha
Moon: yes! Haha
11:56 am
Alex: "hey...Elliot?" he said walking up to him
Elliot: "yea dude?" he said taking out his violin
Alex: you know class is almost over, right? Why are you taking that out?
Elliot: well, I always do this during lunch haha, it's the one time I can be at peace with myself
Alex: wow...that's deep dude
Elliot: yep! Get used to it haha
Alex: Haha well I was going to ask if you want to come sit and eat with us? If that's up to you?
Elliot: um...maybe tomorrow? I just want to be with myself for a bit
Alex: "well since you're not coming to eat with us...i might as well stay" he said sitting down
Elliot: really...? I mean it's going to get boring to just hear me play-
Alex: come on! play already haha
Elliot: "Haha...okay then" he said smiling at him
• As Alex watched him play the violin, he started to have this feeling inside him which...he had no clue what it was. He thought maybe it was the burrito he ate...until Elliot looked at him and he felt this sudden urge in his chest, something he never felt before. That was when he knew exactly what it was but little did, he know...he wasn't ready to feel such things then and there.
Alex: hey um Elliot...?
Elliot: yea Alex?
Alex: I think im going to go, Bryce just texted me...
Elliot: oh well-
Alex: "you did really good! Bye!" he said running out the band room
Elliot: oh...bye Alex
12:12 pm
Jason: SOOO Bryce...how is you and Sarah doing?
Bryce: do you want to die?
Terrin: yes! haha he does
Jason: shut up dude! Haha no Bryce, I don't want to die
Bryce: then mind your business...plus, nothing is happening
Austin: I highly doubt that
Bryce: what you know? Coming from the guy who made a bet to make a girl fall in love with you
Austin: Um! Ouch dude! That hurt me in the chest...
Bryce: and that's exactly what's going to happen once you realize Blair would never like you
Terrin: well, how do you know that?
Jason: yea...im actually staying positive about Austin's bet
Bryce: trust me...i know. "Look buddy, just don't give your heart up too fast okay" he said patting his shoulder
Austin: yea Bryce, whatever you say. But im going to stay optimistic about it...she will be with me I just know it
Alex: "hey guys! What did I miss?" he said running to the lunch table
Terrin: just too much love drama, that's what...
Jason: yea I mean look at them two
Leo/moon: what...?
Alex: hey they are perfect just the way they are, you guys are just jelly
Bryce: jelly!? "Ha yea right" he said eating his Jell-O
Camil: you should probably slow down on the Jell-O Bryce
Bryce: im fine, you worry about yourself
Cameron: hey um...can you pass me that napkin right there?
Camil: "sure..." she said giving him the napkin
Jason: why are you guys acting weird...?
Austin: the real question is, why isn't cam and Camil sitting next to each other?
• As Camil and Cameron were on separate sides of the table, the rest of the group looked at them confusingly
Moon: "um...haha guys! They don't always have to sit next to each other ALL the time haha" she said laughing nervously
Leo: "okay now what is wrong with you?" he said staring at moon
Bryce: "everything about this group is wrong...and weird" he said scratching his neck
Alex: hey Bryce? How come you never put your hair up?
Austin: I be asking him the same thing, he just ignores me
Bryce: ...i like my hair like this, worry about yourself
Alex: hmm okay Bryce, one day I want to see your hair up at least once
Bryce: that's not going to happen
Alex: haha yes it will
3:37 pm
Camil: so, Cameron?
Cameron: yes Camil?
Camil: can we talk about what happened?
• Cameron didn't want to think about what happened on that night because he already knows that he broke her heart...he didn't want to revisit that moment
Cameron: "what is there to talk about..." he said putting his phone down
Camil: really...? So, you're just going to forget about like it was nothing...?
Cameron: look Camil, you don't understand-
Camil: No, I think I do...I guess that gives me my answer.
Cameron: wait what do you mean-
Camil: you don't have to worry about me asking you about this again, its best if we just move on as friends right...?
Cameron: yea...it's all in the past
Camil: "...we're good?" she said reaching her hand out
Cameron: "yea haha...we're good..." he said shaking her hand
Camil: "...I'll see you out there then" she said walking away
• As Camil and Cameron have their moment Leo sees that there is something wrong with them and there was only one person who could tell him what it was
Leo: "okay what is happening with them two?" he said whispering to moon
Moon: ...Cameron kind of rejected her...
Leo: "WHAT!?" he said choking on his own saliva
Bryce: disgusting...
Leo: be quiet...moon is you serious...?
Moon: yes... but don't say anything okay? Camil is obviously not okay with it...the least she needs is drama
Leo: well, we got to help right?
Moon: yes, we are going to but right now? ...we just need to have her heal and be okay with how everything is now
Leo: I get that. Wait...so you didn't bother to tell me about this!?
Moon: oh my god there you go! "Haha just relax I don't have to tell you everything" she said throwing her hands up
Leo: well, what is "EVERYTHING"!?
Moon: none of your business haha
Leo: what the-
Mrs. Anderson: Everyone get into your places, we're about to begin! And Bryce No sleeping during rehearsal!!!
Moon: "let's go dummy" she said grabbing his hand
Leo: "what do you mean "everything" babe?" he said pouting
Liam: "hey Camil" he said tapping her shoulder. It's nice to see you again
Camil: oh...Haha hi Liam
Liam: "ah there's that smile" he said smiling at her
Camil: yea whatever, just as long as you don't mess up my part
Liam: won't make no promises but anything for you right? Haha
• When they are just about to start rehearsal, Camil looks outside the stage and see Cameron sitting right there...watching her. And that was when she knew that it was really time to move on...so...she took the offer
Camil: hey Liam?
Liam: yea?
Camil: about that offer... Is it still open?
