Cam's Basement

Westchester, NY

10:32 PM

The boys were sitting in Cam's basement having a sleepover. Everyone was there except Derrick. Cam started to worry about his best friend, and decided to text him.

C: hey D, were r u??

D: hey C, on my way… decided to walk…

Cam sighed. He was really worried about Derrick. Ever since Massie had caught him making out with Alicia, he had been really depressed. Even though it's been 3 years, Derrick could never get over the fact that Massie left; he's never been the same guy since. Massie was his life, and he was crushed when she dumped him without letting him explain. If only she knew the truth…(which u guys don't know yet!)

"Hey guys, I'm here…"Derrick stated in monotone. He looked messed up, his hair was majorly disheveled, and he was wearing a baggy white tee with ripped up boy shorts that looked like they had chewed up by a dog. The guys looked at each other frantically until Cam spoke up.

"D-man… what's up??? What happened to you? You look like you've eaten alive!!!" Cam said. Derrick just walked to the couch and sat down. There was silence.

"Come on! We're worried about you!" Added Josh taking a seat next to Derrick

"You know what…" derrick said. The boys automatically got it. One word: Massie.

"Come on D, get over her! It's been three years, man, THREE YEARS!!!" Cam said disguising his own sadness, which came from thinking about Claire, he piercing blue eyes, and a cute child like smile.

Derrick's eyes narrowed, "yea… well I don't see you getting over Claire! And Josh soooo wants Alicia! So you shouldn't be talking!" Cam and Josh just looked at each other. Kemp and Chris decided to stay out of this. There was silence in the entire basement, everyone was quiet, too scared to speak. The only sound that could be heard was the low rumbling sounds of the furnace.

Finally Josh stepped in. " Derrick, I agree, I'm into Alicia and haven't dated anyone after her and neither have you or Cam! We all need to get over them but we can't, we just can't. We know how it feel to lose someone you are completely in love with, we've all have lost someone." Josh said pointing to all the BB with a hint of empathy in his eyes.

Derrick knew they were correct but didn't want to admit it. He just rolled out his sleeping bag and went to sleep. They other guys, also upset followed and wished to get over their sadness'.

Sorry for another short chapter. This was just a filler to show the boys relationship with the girls. The next chapter will be The Daily Grind chapter.
