Hey! I have ALL my OC's now. I mean, there's always room for more, but I have my goal number, so, yay! Thanks! I'm so glad you guys like this story! I hope I can keep that up.

Anyways, since POV's start this chapter, I guess since now I have almost, not quite, equal numbers of guys and girls, I'll start off with one guy, one girl per chapter, and then the POV of one of the Victorious members at the end.

Also, for me, school starts on the 23rd, so I'm going to get a little busier. So around that time, updates may come like twice a week rather than every other day.

Anyways,

Disclaimer: I think I have done this enough XD

Shantel "Telly" Price

"Okay, so we were a bit late getting here. Fine, no problem. Let's not make a huge deal about it." My twin brother, Alex, tells me.

Even though I'm not vocalizing it, I am a little embarrassed to be getting here so late. I don't want to draw the extra bad attention. Extra good attention? Sure! But no thanks to being late.

Alex, on the other hand, doesn't seem too bothered. I mean, he's much more laid back than I am. He's kind of the joker, comparable to a class clown. Okay, more like the class ladies' man. I mean, he's hilarious, and the girls seem to love his tall, dark, and handsome look. He's 6'2, with black hair like mine. It's cut rather short on the sides, and spiked up on top. And the piercing, of course. One of his ears are pierced.

"Whatever," I said softly, tossing my jet-black waist-length hair over my shoulder, the violet tips swaying. I dip-dye them a different color every week. "Let's just go check in."

I let out a silent breath of air, my bangs momentarily out of my eyes for a change. They fell back softly.

The lobby of Venice Heights Dorms is as beautiful as the outside. Marble pillars are placed strategically, and the floors are shiny enough for me to catch my own blue eyes. Alex has matching ones. The ceilings are very high, arching, with chandeliers hanging here and there, beautiful and antique looking. The lobby was empty, as everyone was in the ballroom. I heard singing. Probably some type of karaoke opener, considering this is an Arts camp.

The clerk had us sign in, and the bellhops stood by with our luggage as we were given our room assignments and keys. Everyone was given a key for times like free hour when no one was already there to open the door for them.

I had room 403 on floor 4, and Alex got room 536 on room 5.

I thanked my bellhop, taking my luggage to my room, leaving Alex in the elevator to go up another floor. The hall was empty, as were the rooms, considering that everyone was still in the ballroom. That's what we get for being late. Our friend Taylor dropped us off. Alex and I can drive and all, since we're sixteen, but Taylor basically begged to drive us, just to see the Dorms. They are pretty amazing.

I opened the door to my room, taking the only bed left. It was a big room, and the bed was a nice size, a queen probably. So the room had to be big, to fit four queen beds.

I had just finished unpacking when everyone came up to the dorms.

My roommates introduced themselves as Alicia, who had black rimmed nerd glasses like me (though hers didn't seem to be prescription like mine), Lerainne, who I deemed French by accent and name, and Toni, who seemed very antisocial.

I can admit to being very….timid, at first. But I want to meet some people! So what if it was Dorm curfew? I heard a few girls out in the halls…maybe I could make some friends for tomorrow. If rules get in my way, I find ways to step around them. And plus, my roommates are already asleep.

It's only ten.

Geez.

I stepped out into the hall, wondering briefly about Alex. He and I weren't always close. As a matter of fact, when I was younger, I almost hated him. But we kind of bonded over the arts, him teaching me how to play bass and helping me with my song-writing. We're on really good terms now.

But he's probably getting on fine.

A few girls stood laughing softly in the hall, shushing eachother. A girl with dark blonde hair and an admirable wardrobe lightly shoved another on the shoulder. This one, laughing at the joking gesture, had electrifying blue hair. It was amazing. I never died all of my hair, just the tips. I don't think people look good with unnaturally colored hair. Well, completely unnaturally colored hair. But this girl pulled it off.

Beside them was a red haired girl. I mean, RED haired. It was very, VERY red. Very. She was laughing along, but beside her stood an angry looking girl. She had teal strips in her dark hair, and wore a leather jacket over her teal shirt. She looked upset.

The red haired girl looked over at me, standing in the doorway to my room, all stalkerish.

She giggled. "Hi person!" She said, waving excitedly.

The angry girl raised an eyebrow, the two others turning and offering a smile. I silently closed the door as not to wake my roommates, walking over to them.

The red headed girl bounced over. "I'm Cat! Not a cat, just named Cat." She said with another little giggle. I decided that, no, she wasn't high or drunk, just peculiar. She seemed pretty fun.

"I'm Telly. Well, I'm Shantel, but call me Telly." I said, sticking out a hand.

The girl with the blue hair spoke next. "I'm Ariana. Ms. Fashion over here is Ava. And that's….Jade." She trailed off, referring to the angry girl.

"Are you okay?" I asked Jade, my eyebrows raised.

She smirked at me sarcastically. "Just peachy."

She barked.

Uh, no. Sarcasm is my game too. I'm not normally mean, but if she wants to be that way, so be it. Before I could snap something back, Cat shook her head.

"Jadey's just mad that Annabella stood up to her when she asked if she would trade beds."

"I didn't ask." Jade insisted.

Maybe that's why she stood up to you. My thoughts sneered, but I remained silent.

"Anyways, we're going to go get our friends and sneak out to the gardens to play some games. Wanna come?" Ava asked.

I nodded, and we walked down the hall.

Ethan Taylor

I have to admit, the guys were pretty cool. Niall is pretty laid back, and the new guy, Alex, seems pretty hilarious. Our other roommate is Nathan. My friends would have immediately jumped on the fact that he definitely isn't easy on the eyes. The guy has really bad acne, out of date glasses, braces, and his hair is a greasy mess. But he's really nice, and I'm not the same douche here that I am around my friends.

There was a knock at the door, and I walked over to get it. My singing buddy, Serianna, stood outside.

"Hey! What's up?" I asked. She was pretty cool. And pretty….well, pretty. The only person I would have been happier to open the door to probably doesn't want to talk to me. Maybe she can change her mind while she's here.

"Hey, bring the guys and meet us in the gardens. We're going to have a little game of truth or dare, and if we can find a flat enough surface, spin the bottle. There aren't any windows facing the back gardens, so we won't get caught if we're not incredibly loud." She said, then frisked away to join the noise of a large group down the hallway.

I told the guys and we headed to the elevators, slipping silently out the back lobby doors into the lush gardens. (A/N: Check my profile for a picture of the gardens :D)

Serianna was waiting outside the doors to help us find the group. You could get lost in the gardens. There was an actual maze, but you had to walk a mile to get there, the gardens were so big. We found a clearing surrounded by foliage and flowers, marble benches forming a circle with a fire pit in the middle that had probably never been used.

I tried to recall the names of the people sitting in the circle. I sat by Serianna, Alex, Niall, and Nathan. Annabella sat on Serianna's other side, and I made myself not glance at her. Forced myself. Beside Annabella was Tori Vega, the girl who brought the house down when she sang with that one guy I had yet to talk to. He seemed like the kind of guy I would be friends with, and the girls flocked to him like they did me.

Next to Tori was Cat, the red-head with the pretty voice, and next to her was Jade, the pretty, yet scary girl. Then it was Andre, Beck, the one who sang with Tori, Robbie, Ariana, with the awesome looking blue hair, Ava, and the girl Alex pointed out as his sister. Shantel. Er, Telly. And then it was Emily Wowk, Cat's cousin who was acting into me in the ballroom earlier.

That brought us full circle, and I looked around as people laughed and talked. Looking at everyone….er, almost everyone, I was almost amused with how well this was going. There had to be a catch.

Serianna was talking to Annabella about nicknames, saying how she went by Seri, but we could call her either. Serianna had made sure everyone knew about the options of what to call her. Must be important to her. I shrugged mentally as the circle began to quiet down under the stars.

Cat nodded across the circle at Ariana, and then the red-head spoke up.

"Okay guys. Truth or dare time!" she announced.

A few people seemed bored, but mostly people smiled, sometimes girls shot Beck or I looks. Girls, girls, girls. Always taking these opportunities to ask us questions or dare us to kiss their friends who liked us. That's how it went at parties at least.

Cat was first to go. She brought out a bottle, and laid it on the flat metal cover of the fire pit.

She spun, landing on Emily. "Hey, cousin, truth or dare?" she squeaked.

Emily picked truth, and Cat thought of a question. She probably knew a lot about her cousin, so she was more comfortable asking the harder questions.

"How many guys have you kissed?" Cat asked. She already knew, but she probably couldn't think of much she didn't know.

Emily looked a little uncomfortable, and I almost swore I saw her look at me.

"Three." She said. She looked embarrassed, as if she thought that was a terrible number. She's pretty, so I had guessed more. But maybe she's kind of like me. I've only had three girlfriends, although I've kissed more than three girls, and I dumped them all for various reasons.

The game continued smoothly, not much that caught my attention. I just looked at the stars until Alex informed me that the bottle had landed on me.

Tori Vega

I spun and landed on Ethan. He was zoned out, but Alex brought him back from whatever mental trip he'd gone on.

I saw Annabella's head snap up when I asked the question.

He picked truth, which, by this part of the game, was the least common answer.

So I went out on a limb, looking first at Annabella, then at Ethan.

"How do you know her?" I asked.

He looked a bit taken aback, as did Annabella.

He paused a moment, before answering.

"Uhm, school." He pushed the words out of his mouth quickly, already trying to spin the bottle and move on. I got the feeling there was more to it, but I didn't ask.

I zoned out around the time Ariana had to kiss Robbie, and I sadly was too far gone to want to see his reaction. But I'm sure it was hilarious.

I didn't realize I was staring at Beck until Cat nudged me in the side and winked at me. She stood up, stopping the game.

"Okay, guys. Spin the bottle time. We had our ice breaker, now we get to the real fun!" She said. Most people laughed, but I just swallowed, hard, and looked at my lap.

Hey! I hope you guys liked the chapter! Next one is spin the bottle time, and the first official day of camp!

I few things for you guys to leave in a review: what you do and don't like, who you do and don't like, and if I wrote your character correctly.
