I walked to the Piper Mall to get some new clothes. I went to the shoe store and got a beautiful pair of sparkly pink gladiator sandals. I moved onto the next store, hoping to find something plaid. I got some hoodies and t-shirts, new pairs of shorts and skinny jeans. After getting a reasonable amount of clothing, I walked down to the Rhinestone Café. I ordered a bag of pretzels covered in chocolate, and some hot cocoa.
Rhinestone Café isn't called Rhinestone Café for nothing. All the mugs there have rhinestones along the mugs edge. The place is decorated in rhinestones as well. As I sat down with my order, the same men from Foundation Radio walked in. The turned towards me and smiled. "Congratulations, Cameron Morgan. You are being offered air-time on Foundation Radio, a record label, and a new life in L.A."
I was so happy! I nodded my head yes. "That would be great!" Some Foundation Radio photographers took a couple pictures. I started humming. Today was a great day!
I started by telling mom about my record label. "It would be great for both of us! We could move to L.A. and start a new life there. I could walk to the beach and meet friends there. I could go to a Music Arts High School, I could be famous!"
"Honey, look. I'm proud of you. You were successful. But honey, I've got 13 back-to-back court meetings, this jobs gets us so much money. I'm not moving. But you can." Mom frowned as she walked away.
I ran up to my bedroom to start packing. I began with all my bedding. I then moved into accessories, then into the larger items. After packing all my things, I called Foundation Radio. "Yes, hello this is Cameron Morgan. I'm here to talk to….." I looked at the business card he gave me. "Ralph Greenstone."
In a couple of minutes Ralph was talking through the phone, telling me the address, saying where to go and what to do. I thanked him and hung up. I called a moving van and it came quickly. Mom helped me load all my things.
Mom and I hugged before I hopped in my car and followed the moving van. After getting into Los Angeles, I was so excited! When the moving van stopped in front of one of the biggest houses we'd past, I thought to myself OMG!
I unlocked the door by the key under the mat. Ralph told me what to do so I did exactly that! I decorated for a couple days. Stayed indoors. I made the huge beach house spotless! It had retro furniture, cool pictures on the wall and the biggest TVs.
After 3 days, I took a quick trip to the beach. I pulled on my strapless white fringe bikini and grabbed my guitar. I was working on something new yesterday and finished it today. It was called Wasting All These Tears. (By Casadee Pope)
When I got to the beach people recognized me. I heard things like "Hey, I saw your park performance on the news!" or "Woah! You're the girl with the rockin' voice!"
I sat down on a beach towel and started strumming the guitar and singing.
I tried to find you at the bottom of the bottle
Laying down on the bathroom floor
My loneliness was a rattle in the windows
You said you don't want me anymore
And you left me
Standing on the corner crying
Feeling like a fool for trying
I don't even remember why I'm wasting all these tears on you
I wish I could erase our memory
Cause you didn't give a damn about me
Oh, finally I'm through
Wasting all the tears on you
These tears on you
You ain't worth another sleepless night
And I'll do everything I gotta do to get you off my mind
Cause what you wanted I couldn't give
What you did boy I'll never forget
And you left me
Standing on the corner crying
Feeling like a fool for trying
I don't even remember why I'm wasting all these tears on you
I wish I could erase our memory
Cause you didn't give a damn about me
Oh, finally I'm through
Wasting all these tears on you
Tried to find you at the bottom of the bottle
Laying down on the bathroom floor
Everyone applauded and gave me some cash. I smiled at them. I put my guitar in its case and took a swim. A group of guys motioned me over. Two guys were okay looking, but the last guy looked different, like handsome.
The handsome guy smiled at me. "Hi I'm Luke. I heard you on the News that day when you performed in the park. I also heard you just now. Do you have a record deal with someone?"
I nodded back at him. "Foundation Radio gave me a record deal."
"Here you are," he said pointing around us.
"Here I am," I said smiling. "So…" I just realized that his two friends were gone. I wondered what was happening when all the sudden Luke is leaning in towards me. I stand up on my tippy toes and lean in, hypnotized.
Well let's just say that was my first kiss. Ever. We skipped the friend zone! We went into the love zone! After the kiss we started kissing harder. He put his hands on my lower back. We stayed like that for about a minute.
We pulled away. We held hands. We swam together. It was magical. He asked me to be his girlfriend! We found out so much about each other!
After that day, I bought some more Los Angeles clothes. I got a purple surfboard and some other fun beach things for my pool.
I was truly happy. This day couldn't get any better!

This day couldn't get any worse! I figured out that Cammie got the record deal and left to Los Angeles. I was happy that she got a record deal, but she won't come back and I'll have something missing inside of me forever! I wish I hadn't dated Tina, bullied Cammie, fell for Cammie.
Cammie was the light of my life, even if she thought lowly of me. I really miss her. I hope she comes back.
