MASSIE/CAM/CLAIRE/DERRICK
SENIOR YEAR

"Are you really over him?" Claire asked. Massie ran her fingers through her hair and nearly spat, "I told you I am, I lost count how many times I've said it." She held her cell phone with her shoulder as she switched her items from her Dior clutch to her Chanel hang bag. "I'd love to stay on the phone, but I have to meet Derrick. Okay?"
"Cam's back from Connecticut."
"Fine, I'll say hi to him."

The truth was, Massie already knew. Cam had called her. It felt a little nice that Massie got the call before Claire. She was driving her insane.
It happened about 3 months ago, right before summer vacation. Well, a month before that, Massie and Cam hooked up. Don't worry – Cam and Claire were long broken up. They began dating, then real feelings developed. Once Claire realized that what Massie and Cam had was real, she began to despise Massie. She hardly talked to her anymore; she insulted her whenever she had the chance too. She became a complete bitch, more than anyone could imagine.

Then, right when school ended, 3 months ago, well…Cam left. Massie and Cam had planned a whole summer together. He ditched her. Massie didn't even know why he did it. She practically sulked the whole summer. She usually never sulked. And to this, Claire was compelled. They were friends again.

But now that Cam was back, things were about to change. Massie heard it in the tone of Claire's voice during the call – she was mad again, but more smug. Claire thought she had a chance with Cam, and that he'd put Massie aside forever. And as for Cam, it was a little too late for them to get back. Massie was back with Derrick. And it was time for everyone to move on.

Massie reached Derricks house. "Derrick, hey," she greeted giving him a kiss on the lips. "Did you hear?" he asked, "Cam's back." Massie did her best to stay cool. She was good at it. "Yeah, he called me." Derrick paused his video game. "So… you're… you're over him, right?"

Rolling her eyes, Massie slammed her bag on his bed and snapped, "Why is everyone asking me the same question over and over again? We broke up a long time ago! He- -"
"It was only 3 months ago, Mass. You sulked over him."
"I so did not sulk, okay?"
"You were nearly helpless- -"
"Until you saved me. Right?"

Derrick grinned proudly. "You know… you never rewarded me for that…" Massie grinned right back. "So you are over him, right?" Massie sighed. "Would I be here if I wasn't?" she asked, "And in this position?" Derrick laughed.
