A/N Hey I'm glad you liked the last chapters! And yes Hayden is a jerk, but didn't you guys see that before? I thought I made him pretty jerkish the whole way through really. Anyway, thanks for your lovely reviews! (vinnyroxyfrankie- I was going to add more, but I don't know if it would go with the rating? I always get scared they would delete my story or something!) Anyway on with the story! P.S I'm not quite sure what to end Belle and Hazel on, what do you think? Also if there are time things that don't work out, I'm sorry!


Marianna had finally fallen asleep, and she still wouldn't tell Belle what had happened. Belle sighed and put the blanket over the still dressed sleeping form of Marianna. Then she went out into the corridor, meaning to tell the supervisor people that Mari was ok. But instead she ran into 3 girls, all dressed similarly.

"Who are you?" The middle one, Kelly, asked

"I'm a friend of Marianna's,"

"Oh, the slag," She said, smiling at her friends.

"Excuse me," Belle said, feeling anger welling up, as had started happening this summer,

"Well, she disappeared last night with this guy who she thinks is her boyfriend, and then I saw her coming out of his room, and its totally true because Hayden said she was in his room!" Gladice said, although Belle didn't know that was her name.

"And that gives you the right to call her a slag does it?" Belle said, glaring at Kelly,

"Well she is one, isn't she," Sarah squeaked

"I think you should all stop spreading things about my friend,"

"What you going to do?"

"Me? Oh I'm sure you wouldn't want to find out, now run along little girls," she said, and turned back into Mari's room, locking the door behind her.

"Shit Mari, what did you do?" She said, leaning against the door.


Erin was sketching, a past-time of hers, even though she thought she wasn't that good, when Justin came up.

"There's someone on the phone for you," He said, passing her the portable,

"Hello?" She said, wondering who it could be,

"Erin, Hi, its Belle,"

"Hey Belle, wow I can't believe you phoned, its so great to hear from you! Did you get my e-mail?"

"No, I kind of had to rush off, Mari's in trouble,"

"Oh god, what's happened?" Erin said, sitting down on her bed with a worried expression,

"That's just it, I don't know, she phoned me, and I came up to New York, and now she just cries and says she broke the rules. But I ran into these girls who called her a slut, apparently she was in this guy Hayden's room,"

"Oh, what are you going to do?"

"I don't know... I'm going to try and talk to her, and the course leaders, she hasn't been to the workshops today or anything..."

"Ok Belle, I'm glad your with her, ring me any time, and write soon, tell me what happens!" Erin said,

"Ok, bye, Love you!"

"Love you too!" Erin said, hanging up. Then she realised she hadn't asked what had gone on with Belle and Hazel, oh well that would have to wait until after Mari was ok.

"What's happened?" Justin said from where he was standing by the door,

"My friend, Mari is really upset, we don't know why, but apparently it started after she was in this guys room..."

"Oh..."

"Yeah," Erin sighed, and went back to her desk where her sketches were.

"What ya drawing?" J asked

"Oh nothing..." She stuffed the picture of Danny under another one,

"Hey is that me?" He said, peering over her shoulder,

"Yeah I drew it a few days ago, you want it?"

"Cool!" He said, taking the pencil sketch, "Your good, I'll pin this up, don't worry about your friend, she'll be fine," He smiled and wandered out, still looking at his picture.


Hazel and Russ were in a local park, walking round the lake. They had done the circuit about 10 times, but hadn't noticed. They were too interested in talking to each other. (a/n aw young love lol) It was weird, they'd known each other forever, but now that they were "going out" it seemed they had to learn everything about each other again.

"So..." Russ said smiling,

"Yeah," Hazel said, also smiling. She had never been into the whole "love" thing, but now, with Russell, it seemed she couldn't stop smiling. They stopped and held hands, just kind of looking at each other. She smiled, and looked down at the ground, feeling awkward and embarrassed, and yet not as well. He tilted her head up and bent down and kissed her gently, then pulled away again.

"Sorry if that was the wrong thing to do,"

"No, it wasn't," She went on tiptoes and kissed him back.


A/N Ok I don't know what happens next... I shall ponder while you review, if you have any ideas just say... by the way, I didn't really like that chapter, but hey. Also hazel and Russ is a bit too sweet for my liking, but oh well!
