I sat down in my locker room, I figured there was a lesser chance of running into Trent or Zack here.

I looked up when my door opened, eve stood there "you haven't seen mickie anywhere by any chance?"

"oh um, she told steph she was sick" I said

"told? So you think otherwise"

I stood up pulled her into my locker room and shut the door "please don't tell anyone" eve pulled a face at me "oh god no, im not hitting on you"

"oh" she folded her arms "good go on then"

"can, can you give Lucy something for me?"

"why can't you do it?"

I sighed "im not talking to zack"

"what? Why not?"

"it doesn't matter just" I sighed as I dug into my bag "when we went to the mall, she sore this bear and I wouldn't buy it for her" I held it towards her "just give it to her for me please"

"sure" she said softly taking it from me "but why cant you give it to her?"

I sighed "i might run into zack and she kind of hates me" I looked down "i called her a brat and made her cry, mickie slapped me"

"oh my god when was this? I did I miss this?"

"when you got back from the mall, and you went out to get some more drinks"

"ahh so that's why she was scowling at you" eve nodded, I looked up at her "ill be sure she gets your bear" she spoke before walking out closing the door.

My mind started to wander about the situation with mickie and how im technically in a relationship with Kim, I mean she thinks im her boyfriend that subsequently means we're a couple right? I dunno I never get this whole boyfriend and girlfriend thing, life is much simpler when you just sleep with several women.


I found Lucy on John's bus with mickie "hi eve" she smiled at me

"i have a present for you" I sat on the floor with them, they were playing some princess board game

"really?" she smiled at me

"yeah, John gave it me to give to you"

"i don't want anything from him" she stood up and went to her bunk

I sighed "so, spoke to John, he told me why she's mad at him"

"yeah my hand still hurts from that" she nodded at me "feel bad about it though"

"you would" I looked at her

"please don't give me a lecture" she spoke standing up

"we made a deal, neither of us let us fall for them"

"yeah well shit happens eve"

I sighed "let's not fight about this"

"ok" she nodded "you fell for zack" she mumbled

"mickie"

She chuckled "your so easy to wind up"

"i hate you" I shoved her as we both laughed "look, we need to cheer her up, she's nine it can't be that hard"


I got onto the bus to find the girls at the back and zack at the front "there having a movie night to cheer Lucy up"

I sighed and looked at him "dude, im sorry I called her a brat she just kept going on at me"

He looked at me "it didn't give you the right to shout at her like that, your lucky I never punched you"

"yeah well, I just remembered, im not talking to you" I began walking down the bus to my bunk

"Couldn't of hurt you that much if you cant even remember to stay mad at me"

i looked at him and walked back up to him "you abused my trust"

"like your doing with mickie" he looked up at me "im not stupid" he stood up "ive seen the sly smiles you send each other and how you both sneak off minutes after each other to hang out" he put his hands in his pockets "dangerous game considering you have a girlfriend in Boston don't you think"

"what are you talking about?"

"Kim" he said "yeah, Lucy heard her say you had to do something to her she liked because you had to look after the grieving child" he grabbed a bag "Lucy were going" he called out "your sick, yanno she actually thought her mum had died and I just didnt tell her"

"but uncle zack im having fun" she called back

"dude i-" i said

"save it, that kid loved you, and im not sticking around while you hurt her even more" he looked behind me "now Lucy" he looked back to me "i hope you achieve everything you want out of this, it's just a shame your doing this to a nice girl like mickie"
