BIG TIME SCANDAL

GABRIELA WAS such a helpful person and who wanted to return the favor?

Lucy.

While Gabriela and Kendall went through their rough patches she had done a lot of writing.

A ton of writing about the what if.

What if Gabriela and Kendall broke up? What if Gabriela and Kendall dated and Jo were to suddenly try and get back with Kendall... again?

Gabriela knew she wasn't going to sing the song so she had given it to Lucy.

Lucy knew how bad Gabriela felt during the "will he won't he" thing with Kendall so Lucy took the song from her (giving her credit of course).

"You guys!" Kelly shouted as she ran into the studio, "Lucy Stone just came out with her first CD, and everyone is raving about it."

The boys began to give her small congratulations.

"Yeah, wait till you hear the hot new single that dropped today written by Gabriela: You Dumped Me For Her. It's about how Kendall almost chose Jo and is a total jerkface!"

"Oh, no. I've been swifted."

GABRIELA STOOD with Lucy as they picked people out to be in her music video.

"Okay, which one looks like the bad boyfriend you wrote the song about?"

"He's not a bad boyfriend... just a tiny... thing."

"Actually, big thing." Lucy said, "Now picked the guy."

Lucy pushed her forward.

First guy was close, second guy had smaller eyebrows, and finally, she stood in front of Kendall.

"Why are you in line?" Gabriela asked.

"Can we, uh, talk about Lucy's new song?" Kendall asked, "By the way, these guys look nothing like me."

Gabriela rolled her eyes and held Kendall's hand as Lucy and Jo followed.

Once she made it to Lucy's dressing room, Gabriela and Lucy sat down as Jo and Kendall stood in front of them.

"It's just a song, Kendall." Gabriela said.

"A song about us."

"A song about what if. I wrote the song during the debatable time of: will he, won't he. My way of getting it out without telling everyone just yet."

Kendall sighed. He couldn't blame Gabriela for feeling the way she did. So, she had a valid reason to do what she did.

"It's just- you're not only swifting me but you're swifting the whole band, and they don't deserve that."

"You're right, they don't." Gabriela sighed, "Lucy has a conference about her CD so she won't tell anyone that the song about you."

"Great. Thank you."

"Okay, let's go." Jo said.

He kissed Gabriela's cheek as he and Jo set off to the Palm Woods.

"The song is great, by the way, but it's not exactly accurate." Kendall said.

"How?" Gabriela asked.

"Doesn't matter. Let's go." Jo said.

"It's just- I didn't run off."

"You did runoff." Gabriela laughed, "You left me the entire day."

"We really should be going."

"And a lot of it is inaccurate." Kendall added.

"Yeah, because you can tell me how I was feeling that day, because you were there as I was crying on your shoulder- oh, wait that was Carlos, because you were avoiding me all day, along with Jo. So, you have no say in what's accurate." Gabriela looked at Lucy, "You know, it's Lucy CD and her press conference, she can talk about whatever she wants, so if Lucy wants to tell everybody that the song that I wrote is about you, she can, because she knew how I felt that day."

"Oh..."

"Oh."

GABRIELA, THE boys, and Jo all stood in Gustavo's office.

"So, Kelly and I decided it would be a great idea for all of us to get together and have a little recap and let's start with- I said no scandals!"

"I have no control over what Lucy says at this press conference." Gabriela said.

"You do." Gustavo said.

"I don't. She was actually there she knows the truth and so do others."

"Fix it before E! News- airs tonight at eight."

"Yeah, meanwhile, we'll be dealing with Logan and Carlos' two granny scandals." Kelly said.

"Technically, we should count that as one large granny scandal." Logan said.

"Why can't you guys be more like James?" Kelly asked, "He got a duet with Cher Lloyd."

They began to hear knocking on the door and someone calling James' name.

"James! I know you're in there recapping!"

"Ah, duet, scam..."

"Open this door right now!"

"We should leave now."

"Quick!" Carlos said, "The secret passage!"

Each leaving on their own Kendall and Jo followed Gabriela to the Palm Woods.

She finally faced Kendall, "You know how ridiculous you sound?"

"Can we talk about this?"

"Wanna talk? Here's what you're getting. I was hurt, we had finally told the boys we were together and Jo comes back and your all confused. That hurts. What if I dated James previously and he left and then I started to date you, James comes back and I start to avoid you all day. It sucked. I felt like I had no one to talk to so I just wrote it down. If it's inaccurate to you, maybe the world will agree."

She turned and entered the Palm Woods.

Kendall quickly caught up with her and stood in her way, "You wanna know something?" Gabriela asked, "If you would've just came and talked to me, none of this would be happening right now."

She brushed past him and headed to her apartment so she could get ready for Lucy's press conference.

"You just put yourself in a bigger scandal." Jo said.

Kendall sighed. He needed a plan, and hopefully, it worked.

LUCY WATCHED Gabriela as she held her head back and threw one of those balls Lucy gave her in the air.

"Are you sure you want me to say the song is about Kendall?" Lucy asked.

Gabriela sighed heavily.

She didn't want a scandal around the boys whatsoever. She knew she didn't hate Kendall, if she did she wouldn't be with him. She didn't hate Jo, because if she didn't she would only separate herself from her.

She caught the ball as it fell from the ceiling, "No."

"You sure?"

"Positive."

Lucy nodded as she made her way on stage, "Rumors have been swirling as to who my song You Dumped Me For Her- is about and whether or not it's Kendall Knight due to the fact that Gabriela Machado wrote the song. I'm here now to tell you all the truth and to answer all your questions."

"Yes, Candy Canderson, scandalicious- magazine. Can you name every star in the universe? And go."

"Um... I was thinking the questions would be more about the song."

Gabriela looked over and saw Kendall sitting with a wig on.

She sighed and made her way over and sat down beside him.

Kendall quickly looked over and back at Lucy.

"Having a good time?" Gabriela quietly asked.

"Good press conference?" Kendall asked, since he was wearing the wig and disguise he thought that she did not recognize him, "Do you think she's going to confirm that the song is about Kendall Knight?"

"Heard from a source that Lucy Stone was told that she shouldn't talk about it." Gabriela answered, "The songwriter is upset but her boyfriend is right, surprisingly, there's no need to have all the boys in a scandal."

Kendall smiled, "I'm sorry."

She rested her head on his shoulder.

"Are you going to stop Camille, Jo, and Jett?" Kendall asked.

"Let's see how far they'll go."

Things got out of hand quickly as Jett and Buddha Bob became to the source of questions.

Lucy made eye contact with Gabriela who sighed.

Gabriela stood and made her way towards the podium.

"Hi, I'm Gabriela Machado and I wrote the song You Dumped Me For Her, and I know a lot of people think the song is about Kendall Knight and I'm here to say it's... not. Yes, Kendall is my boyfriend, but he only means well and tries really hard to make me happy and I can only appreciate that."

Lucy stepped forward, "The song was written out of fun and is in no way is it about anyone."

Cameras went off as the two of them walked off stage.

Kendall ducked down between the crowds and headed backstage.

"Hey."

"Hi."

Lucy looked between the two, "I'll let you two talk."

"I think you overreacted." Gabriela said.

"I would think you're right."

"It was just the "what if", Kendall. Not the... "it happened" or anything like that."

Kendall sighed, "I know."

"It wasn't easy on me either. I wanted to tell you how I felt but I didn't know what to tell you, Lucy listened and do Carlos, and at the end of the day I thought I was okay, but I wasn't, so I wrote a song about: "What if Kendall chose Jo?". "What if Kendall broke up with me?". "What if Kendall didn't feel the same way I did?""

There was a beat of silence between the two of them.

"I didn't think dating was hard." Gabriela said.

"It shouldn't be." Kendall sighed, "Gab, I want you to be able to feel like you can talk to me, about anything, no matter the issue."

"How do we do that then?" She asked.

"If you've got to yell at me, whatever it is... just talk to me."

She let out a breath.

She meant what she said. She didn't think dating would be hard... and it shouldn't be.

"And if you need to just distance yourself from me... you can."

"I don't want to do that."

She ran her hands through her hair, "We talk, like we always do, and figure what to do from there. I'm slowly figuring things out with having a boyfriend. So you've got to bare with me."

She held her hand up. Kendall smiled down at her and gave her a five high and laced their fingers together.

"We're gonna be okay."

"We're gonna be okay."

They were gonna be okay.

i switched the episodes around so there is one before this one but you'll get it tomorrow and this will be gone when it's up
normalize not having your first boyfriend till you're 19 because i still haven't had one yet ❤️

psa: updates will probably slow down. the reason you got updates every day was because they were prewritten and i started school recently so pray for me.
