Anne: Scarlett! Where have you been?

Keira: You have alot of explaining to do.

Scarlett: Look girls, I'm sorry for disappearing like that.

Amanda: And?. . .

Scarlett: Oh ummm yeah.

Anne: *Holds her head* First of all Scarlett, Do you know what you did???

Scarlett was silent as Anne sighed as Keira spoke.

Keira: So this is what you mean by "Busy"

Scarlett: I-

Amanda: We don't know what to say Scarlett, You literally broke someone's relationship

Scarlett: I know! Me and Chris messed up. . . But we kept it going for a few weeks.

Anne: A few weeks!?!?

Keira: *Shocked* Are you kidding me!?

Amanda was shocked as well as Scarlett fixed her hair and stared at her friends.

Amanda: How did this even happen???

Scarlett: *Sighs* Okay, Me and Chris have been seeing eachother for a month now. We both talked a little in a friendly way but we also started teasing eachother as days went by.

Keira: *Sighs* Oh my god.

Scarlett: Then He even invited me to his house a couple times until one day in the weekend We. . .

Anne: Good gosh, Scarlett.

Scarlett: I don't know why but we both wanted to keep it going until yesterday Eva caught both of us in the lockerroom.

The girls were shocked as Scarlett was staring at them as Anne stared.

Anne: You seriously kept that going? And Now look, The whole school knows about it!

Scarlett: I know and I'm sorry for everything.

Keira: How can you break someone's relationship??? You do know it's not gonna be fixed now!

Anne: *Breathes heavily* Okay Okay. You know what Scarlett, I'm gonna talk to Eva.

Scarlett: *Gets worried* What do you mean??? I can't face her-

Anne: I didn't say you were going to talk to her! Everyone has been giving us looks every since that happened.

Scarlett: Why?? Didn't I do it?

Anne: I know and it's so confusing but I wanna get to her good side right now.

Amanda: I'm sure she has no problem with us though.

Anne: Yeah! But-

Suddenly they heard footsteps as They turned and saw Orlando standing with a worried look on his face as they looked at him.

Amanda: Orlando?

Orlando: Uhhh The Principal is calling us to his office.

Anne: *Shocked* What!? I don't even have the time right now-

Orlando: I think we are in trouble.

Keira: Oh no.

They all looked worried as Anne was shocked.

Anne: Oh my god, I already have a trouble to deal with and now I have this!?

Scarlett: Lets just go right now.

They nodded as They made their way to the Principal's office. They knocked on the door as the Principal said come in, They walked inside as The Math Teacher and Principal looked really upset.

Math Teacher: There you are, Troublemakers.

Anne: Sir, What did we do?

Principal: Don't lie! I know what you all did, Do you think vandalising is a joke to you all!?

They're eyes were widen in shock as The Math Teacher looked really angry.

Scarlett: *Whispers* I thought they forgot about it.

Math teacher: We caught a footage and saw you girls and Orlando running away with spray cans.

Principal; Not too mention, I know you all also threw water balloons at my house.

Orlando: *Looks at the math teacher* You should seen the footage a little earlier.

The girls were holding their laughter as the teacher was shocked and angry as The Principal stared in anger.

Principal: Keep your mouth shut! I'm contacting your parents about this or I'll give you a suspension.

Anne: Wait wait. I'll call you dad Okay?

They looked at Anne who was scared and worried as The Principal sighed in anger and nodded as Anne had a small smile on her face and called her dad but at the same time they were getting scolded for what they did.

Anne: Dad!

Saul: *Smiles* Hi Anne.

Anne had a huge smile on her face but stopped smiling as The Principal and Math Teacher were glaring as They said to Anne and her friends to stand outside the office.

They were outside the office as Orlando spoke.

Orlando: I hope we won't be in trouble anymore.

Anne: Don't worry, I'm sure my dad got this.

About fifteen minutes later, Saul walked out of the office as Anne looked at him as He spoke

Saul: Did you did all of that?

Keira: Ummm yes.

Anne: I just wanted to have fun only.

Saul: *Smiles* Don't worry Dear. You and your friends are able to resume school, I talked to him and fixed the issue.

Anne: *Has a big smile on her face* Really!? Thank you so much Dad!!

The rest were actually shocked as Anne hugged her dad as Saul chuckled and hugged her back as Anne looked at her friends and smiled as Amanda spoke.

Amanda: So we are not in trouble anymore?

Orlando: Oh well thank you so much.

Saul: *Smiles* No problem and Remember, If you have another problem. Better call Saul.

They all smiled and shared a laugh as Anne's father left the school as Anne smiled at her friends Atleast it wasn't much of a problem for them but they knew they had to be careful.

After School

Benjamin was leaving the school as April was a new member to his gaming club, Cassie and Shawn actually left the club because there was another club they wanted to join, Benjamin respected their decision and Cassie and Shawn will still support Benjamin's club.

Benjamin was walking and making his way back to his house as He had alot of things going through his head, He remember the times of his other school as Benjamin was starting to feel a bit sad.

Now the days were going fast for him, He stretched his arm and remembered Ariel and was still happy to reunite with his old friend.

Benjamin made it to the house as He opened the door and walked in as Benjamin walked to the kitchen and saw his mother frying French fries.

Benjamin's Mother: *Smiles* Welcome home, Benjamin.

Benjamin; Hey mom.

Mother: I made some French fries. Come and eat it when your freshed up.

Benjamin nodded and went upstairs to wash his face and change his clothes as He went downstairs and sat in the dining chair as His mother put the plate of French fries and sat next to him.

Mother: How was school?

Benjamin: Pretty good actually.

Mother: *Smiles* I'm glad to hear about that. Your been with your new friends right?

Benjamin: Yeah, Jessica, Cassie and Shawn are honestly really good friends.

Mother: Your right about that, I think you have an interest on Jessica right?

Benjamin looked at his mother in confusion as She laughed a little and shooked her head.

Mother: I'm just kidding, Don't worry.

Benjamin; I was stunned by that.

She laughed again as Benjamin gave a small smile to her as She spoke to him again.

Mother: What about Ariel? How has she been?

Benjamin: She's been doing alright, Me and her catched up on everything since last year.

Mother: Great to hear, You know Benjamin I noticed how she moved on from everything.

Benjamin: Thats true.

Mother: She looks happy also and is enjoying her life right now. I think right now you should do the same.

Benjamin was looking at her and stopped eating as She continued speaking.

Mother: I want to see you go back to who you were, How you used to crack jokes, hang out with your friends, talk to people and be more happy and confident.

Benjamin was silent as He was thinking about it.

Mother: I'm sure Ariel would tell you the same thing, Its time you go back to being that person. You have been becoming for silent for a while before you got new friends.

Benjamin was looking at her as His mother smiled at him.

Mother: I know you still have that personality in you.

Benjamin: . . . . I think your right about this. I should be myself again.

His mother smiled at him as Benjamin was thinking about it, He really missed his old life.

Benjamin: Maybe I should go back to the gym. . . .

Mother: What? To impress Ariel or something?

Benjamin: *Eyes widen* Mom!!!

She started laughing as Benjamin was blushing and looking at her, She knew deep down that. . .

He actually likes her.

Meanwhile Alex was at his house as He was studying for the chemistry test as He was trying to figure the questions out.

Alex was writing some notes down until he was starting to feel tired as He stopped writing and looked at the time.

Alex was looking at the ceiling as He was thinking about something until he saw the paper of Priscilla's number on the table as Alex was looking at it as He was thinking. He grabbed the paper and stared at it until He pulled out his phone and dialled the number.

He was looking at the number until Priscilla answered the call.

Priscilla: Hello?

Alex: Hey, Is this Priscilla?

Priscilla: Oh Alex isn't it?

Alex: How do you know my name?

Priscilla; *Giggles* I heard the teacher say your name, Silly.

Alex: Oh okay, I see. Well How are you doing Priscilla?

Priscilla: I'm doing fine, I don't even feel like studying for the Chemistry test.

Alex: Well I'm right now studying actually.

Priscilla: Oh? Surprised you don't feel bored.

Alex: Its normal for me.

Priscilla: Anyways, Alex. Talk about yourself. You seem like an interesting person.

Alex: I noticed some girls called me an interesting person.

Priscilla: Hmm Some girls?

Alex: What?

Priscilla: Nothing. I mean the reason I call you that is because I wonder what Lacey found interesting about you.

Alex: Interesting? What do you mean? We are just friends

Priscilla: I didn't say if you two were friends or not hahaha.

Alex: Me and Lacey have similar stress struggles, Thats why we are really good friends along with Seth who is my other friend.

Priscilla; Ooooh I see then.

Alex continued talking to Priscilla as Kelly was also talking about herself.

Meanwhile Chris was having a drink in the bar as He didn't feel like studying yet, He was drinking as Chris was thinking about what's been happening and knew that he needs to move on. He decided to try and distract himself as Chris felt like he wanted to leave the bar right now as He had a another drink and left.

Chris was standing outside the bar as He was pacing back and forward while looking through his phone until he heard familiar voices as He was looking around until he saw two women walking.

This was Sofia Vergara, She is the biology teacher.

Maria and Sofia were talking to eachother while walking as Chris was staring at both women.

Chris: Miss Vergara and Miss Kanellis?. . .

Chris decided to walk away but unknown to him, Maria saw Chris as She was shocked to see him near the bar as Sofia looked at her in confusion.

Sofia: What's the matter, Maria?

Maria: Uhh nothing.

Sofia: You look like you saw something?

Maria: Nothing, I'm gonna actually gonna leave right now. I'll see you tomorrow at School, Sofia.

Sofia: Okay see you soon, Maria.

Sofia smiled at her as Maria gave a smile at her as well. Sofia walked away as Maria was looking at her before she went to Chris's direction.

Chris was walking until someone tapped his shoulder as he turned and saw Maria as He was surprised.

Chris: Miss Kanellis?

Maria: Hello Mister Johnson, Very shocking to see you here.

Chris: I was just taking a walk actually. I didn't know you were here.

Maria: *Stares* Were you taking a walk or went to the bar?

Chris: I didn't go to any bar.

Maria: I saw you Chris, You were at the bar.

Chris: I'm serious, I was just walking past it.

Maria: Don't lie to me.

Chris: Alright, What if I did?

Maria: Your still eighteen! You shouldn't be drinking at the bar *Sighs* I don't even know what else do you do now. Your such a troublemaker. You do know that alcohol is bad for you.

Chris: I know that but it's just a habit now.

Maria; You need to get rid of that bad habit.

Chris: Can't promise you.

Maria: *Stares* Your testing my patience.

Chris just stated and shrugged as Maria was getting ticked off but tried to calm down.

Maria: I won't tell anyone.

Chris: Really?

Chris was actually shocked but didn't wanna show it as Kanellis nodded and looked at him.

Maria: Yes but I don't want to see you do that again so you need to stop.

Chris: I'll think about it honestly.

Maria: No Chris. You have to stop.

Chris: Fine, I'll stop drinking but only if I can ask a favour for you?

Maria: What is it?

Chris: You told me that I need to improve on English class so you can be my tutor.

Maria: *Stares* You want me to help you in English class?

Chris: Yes Thats right.

Maria was staring at Chris as He was fixing his hair before Maria gave a small smile.

Maria: Doesn't seem like a bad idea.

Chris: *Raises an eyebrow* What do you mean by that?

Maria: I mean it's fine if you need help on English. We can talk more at school, Right now I need to go home.

Chris: If you say so, Take care Miss.

Maria: You too, Chris.

Maria walked away as Chris was looking at her as He continued staring at her and was wondering how he was going to improve in the English class.
