Alice’s House (5.30am):
Alice was sleeping peacefully snuggled with Dana; they had spent last night together. They spend almost every night together either at her house or at Dana’s. Then Dana and Alice heard Alice’s phone beeping. Dana picked it up immediately and saw it was Shane and gave it to Alice.
HEY, EMERGENCY, BE AT SCHOOL AT 7AM ASAP :S

Alice wondered immediately what was wrong with Shane and snuggled deeper into Dana. She too wondered what was wrong with Shane.

 King High:
When Bette arrived at school Papi was already there drinking a huge cup of coffee. Bette immediately knew that Papi didn’t spent the night in her own bed.
“Hey, seems like we’re the first ones here,” said Bette sitting next to Papi.
“Yeah, because Shane has a problem. I could have been in my bed at this minute,” complained Papi.
“Stop complaining girl,” said Bette. Papi didn’t say anything more, she had a huge headache. After a while Alice and Dana arrived. The 4 of them were talking when they saw Shane coming up to them. Bette was the first one to speak.
“What’s wrong Shane?” Bette asked expecting something horrible. Shane decided to just blurt it out.
“I slept with Carmen last night, we were both wasted.” When Shane just blurted that out everybody was shocked. Papi didn’t have a hangover or a headache anymore, because of this revelation.
“What do you mean you slept with Carmen?” asked Papi.
“I meant as in we had sex,” said Shane honestly.
“You left her before she woke up?” asked Bette. Shane felt ashamed now.
“Yeah,” Shane said with her head down.
“Shane! How could you do that?”Asked Alice horrified at what Carmen must be thinking now. Dana decided to stay out of this.
“I know, that’s why I need your guys help,” she said looking from Bette to Alice to Papi.
“You need to talk to her, tell her what happened if she doesn’t remember,” said Bette. They all nodded in agreement.
“Okay, I’ll talk to her when she arrives.”
By 7.30am everybody’s at school, everybody expect Tina. When Carmen arrived Shane went to talk to her. The whole gang saw this, Bette and Papi wished Shane good luck. They didn’t want Shane to hurt Carmen, but they also knew that was the only way.
“Hi,” said Carmen shy.
“Hi, are you okay?” asked Shane.
“Yeah, you left early.” Said Carmen wondering why Shane left so early.
“Yeah, well I wasn’t sure what to do,” said Shane scratching her head being uncomfortable, Carmen chuckled.
“Listen, Carmen. What we did last night was not what I intended.” When Shane said this Carmen’s heart broke. She didn’t Shane to said this, even when Carmen had a crush on Shane.
“No, me neither we were drunk,” said Carmen playing along with Shane.
Shane smiled at Carmen and said:”Well, I’m sorry if I took advantage of you. You’re one of my friends; I would have never done that to you.”
“I understand, we are FRIENDS,” said Carmen almost wanting to cry. Last night had been heaven for Carmen.
“Yeah, can we still be friends?”
“Yeah, of course,” said Carmen silently. Shane came to Carmen and embraced her. What Shane didn’t know is that she was starting to feel something for Carmen. They let go off each other and went to join their friends.
At 8.10 am the bell rang and Tina still hadn’t arrived. Bette decided to wait for her and told Alice and Shane to go on to math class. 10 minutes later Tina arrived at school and saw Bette still sitting on the bench, Tina wondered if they had first period free.
“Hey,” said Tina coming up to Bette.
“Hey,” said Bette glad to see Tina. “Someone’s late.”
“Well, we both are actually,” said Tina smiling at Bette, which earned her a smile back.
“Yeah, I wanted to wait for you.”
“That’s sweet, but what are we going to tell Mr. Gonzalez?” asked Tina.
Bette chuckled and said:”I have no idea.” Tina sat next to Bette on the bench; there was nobody in the yard.
“So, I told Carmen about you and Kate.” Tina turned to look at Bette and felt hurt. Bette wanted Tina to date someone that wasn’t her.
“Yeah and?”
“Well, she’s going to talk to Kate today when she sees her.”
“Okay then,” said Tina looking ahead.
“You don’t seem excited.”
“I’m not really into her; I’m just giving her a chance.”
“Yeah,” said Bette looking ahead. “When did you talk to her?” asked Tina.
“This morning before the bell rang,” said Bette. After a few minutes,” Shane and Carmen slept together.” Tina was in shock.
“I missed all that because I came in late?”
“Yep, pretty much,” said Bette. “What happened?” asked Tina.
“Well, Shane and Papi met Carmen at Milk. Papi went home with a chick leaving drunken Shane and Carmen alone, who were very drunk. And well things happened.”  All Tina could say was wow.
“Would you ever sleep with one of your friends?” asked Tina.
“I don’t know. I believe it brings up problems between friends, I mean what happens if there was a break up.”
“Well, I think you have to be grown up about it and accept you weren’t meant to be,” said Tina.
“Yeah, you’re right. But sometimes it gets too complicated,” said Bette trying to see some sense into Tina. “I’m sorry but I don’t agree with you, I mean look at Alice and Dana.” Bette laughed at Tina’s example. “What?” asked Tina.
“Are you serious? Dana was my friend before they hooked up. I introduced Dana and Alice.” All Tina could say was oh. “But, now they’ve all become her friend.”
“See!”
“But, it would be weird if they broke up,” said Bette. Then they started laughing. “I can’t believe we are arguing about this,” said Tina.
“Yeah,” said Bette chuckling, then she looked at Tina, “I’m glad I made friends with you, I like talking to you.” Tina smiled:”Me too.”

The rest of the day they hung out as friends. They were getting closer, and to think they just really got to know each other 3 days ago. In the mean time Tina was glad that they were on their way to becoming great friends. Tina secretly hoped that it would lead to something more. But she doubted that they would, since Bette kept insisted that Tina should try dating Kate.
