AN: This is my first non-requested fic in awhile. Not saying that I'm ignoring you guy's prompts, noooo keep them coming. It's just that this was in my notebook for so long, you know, and I wanted to get it out!


"Cam, we have a proposition for you." Dallas said, grabbing the smaller boy and pushing him into a headlock. Down the hall, came Marisol Lewis, her best friend Katie, and her little sister following Fiona Coyne to her locker. Maya looked wary of going into Ice Hound territory, but the two older girls pulled her in.

"What is it?" Cam said from his position, one he seemed to get into a lot. "I'm not eating or wearing anything."

"We dare you to try to pick up one of those girls." Dallas said cruelly. "Since your last attempt went so well." The team erupted into laughter, one Cam was definitely not keen to be a part of. Owen cleared his throat.

"Your choices are the bitch sisters, the taken bitch, and a lesbian." he stated. "Pick your poison."

"I really have to get to class guys, if I fail French, I could get kicked off the team." Cam stated, almost heading to his French class when two of the guys pulled him back and pushed him forward. He stumbled a bit and fell flat on his face, the only thing he could hear was his teammates earth-shattering laughter and all he could think is that maybe he should just stay down there.


"Oh my god." Fiona said, as the boy fell right near her locker. Katie and Marisol jumped a bit and Maya cocked her head, a bit confused. The hockey team behind him, Cam's so called family were laughing harder than she's ever seen a group of boys laugh.

He groaned, not lifting his head up one bit. Katie, Fiona, and Marisol all exchanged weirded-out looks but Maya sighed and knelt to the floor.

"Cam? Campbell? Are you okay?" she whispered, reaching to hold his head up. She noticed a particularly nasty bump on his forehead and gasped. Katie came to stand behind her.

"That looks really bad." she said to the other girls who glared at the hockey team.

"Hey!" Fiona yelled to Dallas. "Did you push him?" Dallas sobered up his laughter, a chuckle still on his lips though. He stepped forward from his team, who were now starting to look a little bit more worried about their teammate.

"No, Fiona, he fell." Dallas kicked Cam's side gently. "Isn't that right Cam?" Cam groaned and Maya placed his head in her lap without thinking.

"He didn't fall okay? Do you know how much trouble you can get into if he's seriously hurt-" Fiona and Dallas started to speak over each other and holler, as Maya held Cam's head in her lap. She had no idea what to do in a moment like this.

"Can you two stop fighting! Can't you wait until after he's at the nurse because if Simpson sees blood on the floor, he will freak out." Marisol yelled, overpowering them both. Dallas moved to pick Cam up but Maya interjected.

"I'll take him." Maya whispered quietly. "Katie, could you help me?"

Katie nodded, a bit confused. "Sure." She gently sat the boy up and helped him stand, with Maya right beside him. Dallas gave his team a confused look as Maya hobbled him away from the scene.

Dallas stared at their retreating forms.

"Your sister digs my teammate." he sneered. "Of course she would, he's too much of a good guy to see through her."

"Don't even talk about Maya like that, you lowlife pathetic tool!" Katie hissed back.

And with that the fighting continued.


"So Cam, it seems as your head's all better." Dallas commented. "Seeing as you returned in time for lunch in all."

"Yeah, the nurse said I'm fine. I don't have a concussion or anything, I just got a bump, and it's no big deal." Cam shrugged, picking up his chicken nuggets. Dallas turned to the rest of the team.

"That's not the only thing you've got." Owen laughed. "That little niner girl obviously has a crush on you."

Cam dropped his nugget and suddenly turned a slight shade of pink, "Why would you say that, Maya would never have a crush on me."

"Maya is it?" Dallas raised his eyebrows.

"She's in my French class." Cam mumbled, looking down.

"I don't like her." Owen rolled his eyes. "She threw her fake boobs at my head. Do you know how weird that is?"

"She doesn't like me." Cam insisted. "I told her we're never going to be friends, ever, and she hasn't talked to me in English since."

"Whatever Cam, I saw what I saw. She's the one who took you to the nurse, she would let any of us touch you at all. She has got it bad, my friend." Dallas shook his head/

"So I think it's best that you let her down hard. Let her know that it's never going to happen, because it's not. You know it's not." Owen scoffed. 'Tristan has a better chance."


"Hey Cam!" Maya called, during the Stargazers meeting. "How are you feeling?"

Cam swallowed. "I'm fine, thanks."

"Are you okay? You look nervous and scared and kinda sweaty to be honest." Maya laughed.

"Maya, can you please just leave me alone? I'm trying to actually pay attention"

"I was just worried about your head, that's all."

"If you're so worried about it, stop messing with it and leave me alone. I don't need to add your crap to the long list of things I need to take, alright?"

Maya stopped talking immediately, looking down once he caught his sharp tone. He felt really bad now, like he was the worst person on Earth to be mean to such a girl, one who had never wronged him except for that one time that she apologized more than she should have for. But his own apologetic words were caught in his tongue once she looked up and glared at him.

"Campbell Saunders, you were right. We will never be friends. Ever." Maya turning around and ignoring him wholeheartedly. She swore to herself that she'd never help Campbell Saunders again for as long as she lived.


AN: How misleading was the chapter title tho?
