6:30 a.m., Wednesday; Massie's Room; Block Estate; Derrick POV
"Yo sunshine! Wake up!" I shouted as I swung open the door of Massie's bedroom.
"No. No. No. Harrington, get out" groaned Massie, stuffing her face into her pig pillow pet.
"Yes. Yes. Yes. You have to come to school!" I replied, plopping down on her oversized bed.
"Why? Give me one good reason" she stated, sitting up, rubbing her eyes.
"Uh, to see your boyfriend's lovely face all day?" I answered (questioned), raising an eyebrow as Bean jumped on the bed and plopped down in my lap.
"Ugh. So, now you're gay? Only I should say my boyfriend's face is lovely" she joked as she rolled out from under the sheets, stretching her arms as she rose to her feet.
"I am not gay!" I protested.
"Prove it" she smirked as she walked into her endless closet.
"Um...if you were to start changing right now, as in taking your clothes off, in your closet, I would totally run in and watch" I stated, it was the first thing that popped up, jeez.
"Derr-ick!", she shrieked, poking her head out the front of the closet.
"Just sayin'. Okay, I wouldn't. But I am not gay" I replied, grinning at her.
"Okay, I'm changing in the bathroom now. And don't follow me in" she groaned as she grabbed clothes and trudged to the bathroom. Closing the door behind her, I smirked in satisfaction as I heard the lock click.
In the car.
"Are you sure you told Alicia to get a ride? I mean, she could be standing out in the cold waiting for me!" stated Massie as she drummed her fingers along to the beat of Fool Everyone by A Rocket To The Moon.
"Yeah. I called Josh yesterday, told him I would give you a ride. So he said he was gonna give Alicia a ride. I already told you" I answered, as I leaned back into the leather seats.
"Okay" mumbled Massie, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear silently, looking out the window of the car.
"Massie, it's gonna be okay. Trust me" I whispered, patting her hand softly.
"No, it's not. Because that's what everyone says, Derrick. And it's not true. I just want all of this drama to end" she replied quietly as she looked down at her lap.
"I'm sorry it's happening to you, Massie. I really am" I stated, glancing at her.
"It has to happen to somebody right?" she asked, smiling grimly at me.
I just nodded. It has to happen to somebody. But it shouldn't be Massie. It shouldn't.
7:30 a.m., Wednesday; BOCD;Front Lawn;Cam POV
I watched impatiently as Derrick strode toward me and the guys (minus Eric I might add), a frown placed on his face (where his bitch,i'm DERRICKHARRINGTON smile should be).
"Harrington, why were you with Massie yesterday? And this morning?" I growled as I closed the distance between us.
"I comforted her you ass. That's what she needs, comfort. But I'm pretty sure, you don't know that meaning of comfort. After all, you were one of the reasons why she needed it", he snapped, glaring at me.
"Comfort? Just like I comforted her when you dumped her? Don't get all high and mighty with me, Harrington" I spat back, my everlasting anger flaring up.
"Dude. That was three years ago. We're were in seventh grade for crying out loud! What did I know back then? Me and Massie are friends now. We forgot about that, you should too" he replied, kicking his shoe at the pavement below him.
"But you did it anyway! Besides, it's not just me that did anything, what about Griffin? I don't see you yelling at him!".
"Hey! Shut up, Fisher!" growled Griffin as he shoved me from the back.
"Yeah, you both did something to make her cry. You didn't even see her last night. She's tired of all the drama, it's breaking her down", stated Derrick his glare relaxing into a hard stare.
"Yesterday wasn't even my fault!" I grumbled.
"How so?" questioned Derrick, raising an eyebrow.
"Olivia came to my house and kissed me, Mass just came in at the wrong time!" I explained.
"Bullshit. You think a smart girl like Block is gonna believe that?" scoffed Derrick as he adjusted the strap on his backpack.
I opened my mouth to speak, but was quickly cut off.
"No, I won't believe that. I'm sick and tired of all this drama. I wish everything was back to the way it was before. Cam was my best friend. I didn't know Griffin. That we were just the PC and the Briarwood Boys. The PC would be at its best. But you know, it's not going to happen. It's never going to happen. Never", whispered Massie as she walked up, staring at me. Alicia was standing by her side, like one of those protectors.
She smiled grimly at the group, looking everyone in the eye. Kemp. Chris. Griffin. Josh. Derrick. Kristen. Dylan. Alicia. Me. Hey eyes stopped at me, her 'smile' dropping quickly.
I knew her well enough to catch all of the emotions on her face, in her eyes.
Hate. Anger. Sadness. Heartbreak.
After heartbreak her emotions shut down, all emotion sliding off her face, leaving no trace of Massie Jillian Block. She turned on her heel and started to walk away, Alicia (who sent a cold glare at me, Dylan, Griffin, and Kristen) following her.
"Massie" I whispered my fingers twitching, longing to hold the hands that were placed stiffly on her side. At my call, her step faltered, not for a minute, but a second. Making me believe that maybe, just maybe. There could still be hope for us.
I didn't attempt to stop the single tear that slipped out of my green eye, down onto my cheek, making its way to the pavement.
12:00 p.m., Wednesday; BOCD; Front Lawn;Massie POV
I walked aimlessly around the campus of BOCD, my school. By myself.
"Why did I have to cause such a scene?" I asked myself out loud, kicking a rock off to the side. Because, you're Massie Jillian Block, you're an ALPHA, that's what alphas do best.
I smiled softly as I saw the back of Derrick and Josh's backs, their faces pointed toward the parking lot.
"Hey guys" I whispered as I walked up behind them. They twisted their backs, surprise coming over their faces.
"Hey Block" greeted Derrick as he patted the spot beside him. Josh gave me a 'sup' nod, and smiled his josh hotz smile. (the one that made girls like Leesh swoon)
I plopped down beside Derrick, bringing my knees up to my chest and hugging them, setting my chin on top.
"You lied, Derrick" I mumbled as I stared out toward the parking lot, eyeing the teacher's shiny overly expensive cars.
"About what?" he asked, turning toward me.
"About me getting to see my boyfriend's lovely face all day. He's not even here. He's sick. You lied" I answered, grinning at him.
"Ooops, but it got you up didn't it?" he smirked. I nodded.
"Hey Mass..." peeped up Josh, causing me to be surprised, Josh barely even talked to me. I nodded, urging him to go on.
"Alicia, she's really worried about you. Really worried. You should really talk to her" he replied, staring at me. I searched his eyes, he was right. He was concerned, by his eyes I could tell he loves Alicia, no not puppy love, but real love, true love.
Leesh is one lucky bitch. (kidding, I love her to death).
"I will" I answered, smiling at him before turning back to the parking lot.
Silence had never felt so good.
2:30 p.m., Wednesday; Kitchen; Block Estate; Griffin POV
I picked at my pasta impatiently. When will Massie come home ?
On cue, the door opened, then quickly shut, followed by foosteps coming closer and closer.
Massie walked in, her eyes flashing with shock and anger.
"I thought I told you not to come here anymore" she stated as she opened the pantry.
"But this is my soon to be house" I protested.
"Stop reminding me" she groaned as she pulled out a bag of cheddar sun chips.
"Massie" I stated.
"Griffin" she replied, giving me a blank look before turning around.
"Did you mean it when you said you wish you never met me this morning?" I quietly asked.
"I meant everything else I said. Why would I not mean that?" she replied, not bothering to stop walking up the stairs.
"But you're supposed to be my sister" I whispered.
"Not your real one" she replied, stopping at the last step, glancing at me, then walking toward her room.
5:00 p.m., Wednesday; Dylan's Room; Marvil Estate; Kristen POV
"Dylan, she's not going to forgive us just like that! Didn't you hear her this morning, things will never be the same. She's right", I groaned as I stretched myself out on the plush carpet of Dylan's room.
"I know, I know. We have to become friends again, I do not want to be an LBR" droned Dylan, slapping her forehead dramatically.
"DYL! Is that all you care about, the popularity?" I shrieked, sitting up.
"NO! I was kidding. Jeez. Alicia and Massie were my friends long before they were yours. I love them to death. " she quickly snapped.
"But we need to find a way to get your boyfriend to talk to you again" she added, making dread overcome my senses.
"Griffin won't talk to me, Dyl. Right after Mass left, he told me to leave. He hates me" I mumbled as I pulled my knees up to my chest.
"Oh, stop it! He doesn't hate you-". Dylan was quickly cut off by my phone vibrating. I jumped up to get it.
Griffin: Kristen, we need to break up
I let out a whimper, dropping my phone onto the carpet, dropping myself onto the carpet as well.
Dylan lunged to catch the phone, quickly reading the message.
"I'm sorry Kristen" she whispered.
6:00 p.m., Wednesday; Basement; Fisher Estate; Cam POV
I curled up in a fetal position as I watched Epic Movie.
"Yo, little bro, what's up with the position?" asked Harris as he strolled into the room, a bag of chips, two boxes of pizza, and two liters of root beer in his arms.
I groaned, rubbing my face into the couch cushion.
"People's butts are where your face is, Cammie. Fart Face!" joked Harris as he laid the food between us, followed by the couch sinking by his added weight.
Sitting up quickly, I stared him dead in the eye. He jumped back a little.
"Um, Cam, why are your eyes bloodshot?" he asked quietly, setting down the pizza he was going to shove in his mouth.
"Long story".
"I have all night".
"I hate you, Harris".
"I know you love me anyways".
"Ugh. Did you let Massie in last night?".
"Yeah. Right before I left for practice, why?".
"Well, um. When she walked in she saw Olivia kissing me. Cause earlier Olivia came, and she just threw herself at me. I think Claire sent her. And Massie ran out".
"Woah, how did Olivia get in the house?" stated Harris, glancing around the room.
"No idea. That's what freaks me out the most" I answered, staring at him.
"Creepy. Remind me to lock all the doors tonight. Anyways, go on".
"Well, I followed her out and saw her run right in to Derrick. Literally. And she went with him inside his house. What happened? I don't know. Then this morning Derrick and I got into a fight (verbal). Massie came up and said that she wished nothing ever happened. Like, her not meeting Griffin, me still being her bestfriend, the PC still being bestfriends. But she said it's never going to happen. And she looked at me, like really looked at me. Her look was the worst. Anger. Hate. Heartbreak. And, I kinda cried. Well like one tear, so don't make fun of me".
"Damn" stated Harris, awestruck. I nodded.
"What about her boyfriend, Eric, right?" asked Harris.
"Yeah, that's his name. He was sick today. And, well, me and him hate eachother's guts".
"Wow. Cam, please promise you'll do something for me. As much as I tease you, I'm still your older brother. No matter what. And Massie's pretty much my little sister".
"Yeah, what?" I asked hesitantly, glancing at him.
"Win Massie over".
"What?", I cried out, my eyes bulging.
"You heard me. Win her over. You love her. I know that, and somewhere deep inside, you know that too. And she loves you. She wouldn't have looked at you with heartbreak, she wouldn't have been putting up with you all these years, if she didn't love you".
"Besides Massie and Eric, that's a no no. It sounds like Meric, isn't that some type of stomach medicine. Gross. On the other hand, you and Massie, is a yes yes. It sounds like Cassie. Music to everyone's ears, eh?" he added, winking at me.
"Uh..." I started.
"No, you don't have to say anything. Yes, I know this is a giant step for you. So, I'm just going to go now, take a box a pizza with me, the rest of the chips, and the rest of the soda. See, I left you a box. I'm just going to leave you here, let what I just said sink in. And if it didn't sit in, you know where to find me, bro", he stated, grinning as he strode out of the basement.
"Okay" I whispered.
Closing my eyes, I let it sink in. Let everything sink in.
Holy.
Oh my god.
But then again, it was bound to happen.
I'm in love with Massie Jillian Block.
Sigh. I think I REALLY LOVED this chapter. For real.
