Alex: oh yea? ...what is it?
Mr. Calvin: have you guys ever heard of Gorge Amphitheatre?
Alex: isn't that like an outdoor concert?
Mr. Calvin: yes! And I believe it's a great start for you guys to get out there publicly!
Alex: well...the only time we did something like that was with the pep rally...and since then it's just been putting videos of us out there with our music
Mr. Calvin: exactly! This is why I believe you guys should take this offer. Taking this band to the next level
Alex: I mean...I'll have to talk to the leader and the rest of the band to see if they are ready for this...because I mean we are talking about like...CONCERTS! Haha
Mr. Calvin: yes, it is next level haha and I think you guys are ready. But if you have to talk to Camil, then so be it. But I promise you...this is an offer of a lifetime
• When Alex heard those words, that was when he knew that him and his band was truly meant for this, and that maybe...just maybe, this could be there chance to go world wide
Alex: "I know...i won't forget that. Thank you, Mr. Calvin, I'll see you tomorrow!" he said walking out the door
4:10 pm
Ms. Anderson: okay everyone that's a wrap! Make sure you eat well and get some rest! Tomorrow is our big day!

Camil: hey Cameron...?
Cameron: yea?
Jason: hey!? Aren't you guys coming?
Leo: yea we were thinking on going to IHOP!
Moon: "hey guys I think we should just go ahead" she said looking at Camil and Cameron

Cameron: okay then...
8:48 pm
• Camil was on the swings, waiting on Cameron, figuring out how she is going to tell Cameron about what it is she knows about him and his family
Cameron: "hey..." he said walking up to her with a hoodie
Camil: hi...what's up with the hoodie?
Cameron: you're going to need it, that sweater won't do
Camil: "oh...well thank you" she said grabbing the hoodie
Cameron: so...what is it you want to talk about? It must be something important...
Camil: it is actually...it's about your family, mainly Layla and your dad...
Cameron: "what about them?" he said looking down
Camil: I know why...you rejected me
Cameron: do you now...?
Camil: you don't have to protect me you know; I really like you Cameron...
Cameron: you don't think I know that? Camil, you don't know what my family is like, all my dad cares about are money and stability. Layla just cares about her reputation and wanting everything to go her way...even if that means bringing me down
Camil: you need to learn how to step up for yourself Cameron. You can't let them get to you like this...
Cameron: look...i don't you to get hurt in any way all because, you are with me...
Camil: just say it...because thought you might not say it...i know you feel the same way
Cameron: I can't
Camil: "and why not!?" she said standing up
Cameron: I just can't!
Camil: No! Ive been waiting on this for a long Cameron! I want to hear the reason why!
Cameron: BECUASE I THINK IM IN LOVE WITH YOU...! There! You wanted to hear it, so there it is!
Camil: Cameron...
Cameron: ...I'm scared, okay? If I end up being with you, not only do I not have any experience of what love is. But you could get hurt...and I don't want that
Camil: but you're not going to hurt me! Okay I want to be with you
Cameron: Camil! Listen to me...leave it alone...i still have things to deal with. We just can't be together right now...okay?
Camil: "okay. Then when huh?" she said crossing her arms
Cameron: I don't know...
Camil: "...Well once you figure it out, you know where to find me" she said walking away with tears in her eyes
Cameron: Camil...come back-
Camil: I'll see you tomorrow
9:10 pm
• Camil was walking home, not wanting to feel anything, holding her teas back. Until she realized she needed someone to hold her, so...she went to moon's house
Moon: "oh hey Camil!" she said opening the door. How did it go?
• As soon as moon asked her that question. She could see that she was broken with tears in her eyes...she never seen that side of her before...so she hugged her tell her everything was going to be alright
Camil: "moon..." she said breaking down in tears
Moon: "oh Camil....come here..." she said holding her tightly. Shh...everything is going to be okay, promise...
