I am not profiting at all from this story.
A/n—at the beginning of each chapter it says what day of the week it is. If it says 'Still ______' that means the day of the week is the same as the day before it. (duh?) If it doesn't say 'Still' before it that means it is a new day. Please R&R!

Flux, the newsie swing kid- I have the soundtrach too! The things you can find at HMV, so much better than Music World. Music World my bum, there was only eight musical soundtracks there the other day. Only EIGHT!!! AND NO RENT!!! Anyways, I already wrote and loaded a CAMP story. But I found there was no section for it! No section a'tall! Whatever shall I do? Oh, and I don't have a Vlad muse. I don't like him so much. But I do have a Spitzer muse. He's my favourite!!!

I haven't seen Boots at all in.........since I last saw him, I've been trying to think of an excuse to call him, and then I got it.
"Hello?" a woman picked up.
"Hi. Is Boo—erm—Ben there?"
"Benjamin is out at school right now. I'll tell him you called........."
"Don't worry, I'll just call back later. Thank you." I hung up.
Oops, that's right, school's on, it's Monday. So I'll call him back when I get back from the grocery store. If I remember.........wait! This is BOOTS, of course I'll remember.

So now it's 4:30 and I'm pretty sure he'll be home.
"Hello?" and he is.
"Hi, Boots? It's Swifty from Horizontal, I was wondering—"
"Swifty, I'm straight." He sounds uncomfortable. My heart is dropping.
"I—I know. I was wondering if you wanted to help me with something."
"Um........." he sounded nervous, "what?"
"I don't go to school. Do you think you could come over and teach me.........stuff?"
"I don't think I'm a very good teacher."
I wanted to say something like 'you taught me to love' but he didn't and that sounded too fake, too corny. And I think it was in a song once. But I don't know where from.
"That's OK. Just show me what you learned at school."
"I don't know........."
"Boots, please! I think I'm growing stupider by the day!" that made him laugh. Than again, it was pretty funny and I would have laughed at me too. Are we not perfect for each other?
"What do you say?" I was grasping at a straw. Please say yes. Please say yes.
"OK, OK, when should I come over?"
"Now? If that's OK for you........."
"I'll be over soon." And he hung up. I could have danced in jubilation. But, of course, this was all for the sake of learning.
A/n: sake of learning my chocolate-glazed phobia bum! I don't believe one word of it! Not a single word!
Alex: do we have to go though this again? You are the writer! You can say whatever you want! Of course you know it's not for 'the sake of learning'!
Buttons: who let you out anyways? Ignore her people, but you should read and review! Now...do it! You're not fast enough! Go! Supplies are limited! Good.
