Friday Night Sleepover

7:15 PM

The Pretty Committee was sprawled across different parts of Massie's room, exhausted from their shopping spree. Massie and Claire were on Massie's bed. Dylan and Kristen on Massie's rug, and Alicia upside down on Massie's white couch.

"So tired" Dylan groaned.

"Feet hurt" Kristen agreed.

"Hands hurt" Claire added.

"Boobs hurt" Alicia said.

Claire giggled and before long they were all doubled over in hysterics laughing their heads off. Not able to stop.

DING!

Massie, still laughing went over to her computer. "Invitation to video char from shortz4life" she said calmly.

"Accept it!" Alicia shouted

"No please don't" Claire said. But they were still laughing at Alicia's hurt boobs as they crowded around Massie's computer and pressed accept.

Friday Night

7:15 PM

"YESSS!" Derrick and Josh shouted as they defeated Halo 3. Derrick and Josh were high fiving, Kemp and Plovert were jumping up and down on the couch singing "THEY DID IT THEY DID IT!" and Cam was laughing and throwing popcorn at Kemp and Plovert, after finally having gotten his mind off of Claire for the past 3 ½ minutes. Cam threw another piece of popcorn at Kemp, but it missed and hit Derrick in the eye. Derrick let out a high pitched scream and jumped on Cam and started throwing popcorn back at him. Soon they were all in an intense popcorn fight. After a couple of minutes, they collapsed on the floor laughing.

Kemp got up and walked over to Derrick's computer. "Hey lets video chat with the girls!" he called out. Maybe I'll finally get Kristen to notice me, Kemp said in his head.

"YES! LETS DO IT!" Cam shouted and scrambled up and over the couch, falling in the process.

"Dude! You really need to get Claire back." Derrick told Cam as him and Josh pulled Cam to his feet.

"I know, but she hates me, I broke her heart. Breaking up with her was the stupidest thing I've ever done." Cam sighed.

"Yeah that was pretty stupid" Josh said. What? They're guys, they're not very deep.

"Yeah, I mean she actually liked the whole "Romantic Cam" thing." Derrick said putting up air quotes around "Romantic Cam". Cam threw a pillow at him and rolled his eyes.

"Yeah and she's hot," Plovert added and all the guys nodded in agreement. Cam glared at them. "Maybe I'll go after her now," Plovert joked.

"Don't you dare!" Cam shouted before jumping up and tackling Chris.

"I was kidding!" he shouted, "You know I like Dylan!"

Cam reluctantly got off of him. "Well about asking her out, not about her being hot, cause she is." He added. Cam gave him another death glare before asking the guys, "So how do I get her back?"

"Don't worry man, we'll help you." Derrick said slapping his friend on the back.

"Yeah!" Kemp and Plovert shouted and Josh gave Cam a nod and a thumbs up. Cam sighed in relief , happy is friends were gonna help him.

"You just have to do something really romantic." Derrick said.

"Yeah, lets start with video chatting the girls and see how Claire acts towards Cam." Kemp said. The guys looked at Kemp surprised.

"Wow Kemp you actually said something smart and not perverted." Josh joked.

"There's a first time for everything." Derrick said, laughing.

Kemp shrugged and gave a devilish grin before walking over to the computer. The boys crowed around the computer as they waited for the girls to accept their invitation.

Suddenly 5 girls popped up on the screen, apparently laughing at something that had happened before they were video chatting. When the laughing died down, Josh winked at his girlfriend Alicia before asking, "What's so funny?" The Pretty Committee looked at Alicia, and then at each other and bursted out laughing all over again.

Cam stared at Claire, she looks so pretty when she's laughing he thought. His heart twinged in pain at the sight of her laughing and having a good time with out him. It had been so hard earlier when Plovert had joked about asking Claire out, voicing a worry of Cams. The truth was, Claire was hot, and nice, and a good kisser, and an all around great girlfriend. He knew it was only a matter of time before another guy snagged her and she would be out of his reach for good. When they stopped laughing, Claire glanced at Cam and saw him looking at her, then quickly looked away.

"So, what do you boys want?" Massie smirked.

"To talk to Claire." Cam said, looking at his feet. All the girls had shocked looks on their faces and looked at Claire. "Look Claire-" Cam started but then they were interrupted by Mrs. Block calling Massie downstairs.

"I'll go see what she wants." Claire said really fast and ran out of the room before anyone could say anything.

"Ugh" Cam said quietly and tilted his head towards the ceiling.

"Fisher, are you a Taylor Swift song?" Cam heard Massie say to him and he looked back at her.

"No, why?" Cam said, knowing whatever was gonna come next couldn't be good.

"Because 'You're Not Sorry'" Massie said before exchanging high fives with the PC minus Claire.

Cam couldn't believe Massie could think that. There were no words to describe how sorry he was. He started to protest but was cut off by Derek.

"Are you kidding me Block!" he said "You have no idea how sorry he is! He's been moping around we finally got his mind off Claire but only for 3 ½ minutes!" Derrick was basically shouting now. "He is thinking about Claire and how much he wants her back every second of every day!" Derrick continued. "If that's not sorry then I don't know what is!" The guys looked at Derrick, surprised at his sudden outburst and then agreed with him. Plovert and Kemp even threw in a couple of "Ya!"'s and "You heard him!"'s .

Claire had walked in the room just in time to hear Derrick's outburst. She was standing there shocked, like she couldn't move, starring at Cam.

"I'll deal with you in a second" Massie told Derrick, a little too calmly. She turned to Claire, "Hey what did my mom want?" she asked Claire casually.

Massie's voice broke Claire out of her trance and she tore her eyes away from Cam. "Um she wanted to tell you that her and your Dad are going out to dinner and that they will be home in a couple of hours." Claire said nervously.

"Kay thanks!" Massie said before she turned back to Derrick and her expression changed. "Derrick, are you the lyrics to a Katy Perry song?"

"No why?" Derrick rolled his eyes.

"Then shut up and put your money where your mouth is." She smirked.

The PC started laughing and Kristen pushed Alicia out of her chair. "AHHH!" she screamed and Kristen jumped on top of her.

"DOGPILE!" Dylan shouted and jumped on top of both of them. Claire giggled before jumping on top. Cam's heart twisted with pain, wishing he was in the dog pile with Claire, wishing that he was anywhere with Claire.

Massie rolled her eyes at her friends and looked at Derrick as he said,

"Are you a Mike Posner song?"

"No" Massie said in a bored voice.

"Then why do you think your cooler than me?" Derrick said and high fived Plovert.

"Derrick are you having trouble with your car payments?"

"No"

"Then why are you so desperate." Massie finished.

The last thing the guys heard before Massie turned off the camera was Alicia yelling "OW! MY BOOB!"

Now it was just the guys

"Hey maybe you should go and check on Alicia's boob" Kemp told Josh, trying to keep a straight face. They cracked up and Josh blushed and punched him on the arm.

They all looked at Cam.

"Dude" Kemp started.

"I don't think…" Plovert trailed off.

"Claire's too happy with you." Josh added in.

"You're gonna have to do something big." Derrick finished.

"I know." Was all Cam said before collapsing on the couch.

This one is long! Review PLEASE!
