Carter POV
My body loosened up after closing the door, I couldn't hardly think what Claire is actually thinking of right now, to be honest this was one the hardest things I've done. But I know it's for the best. Hopefully one day this will all blow off.
I looked at my watch. Shoot it's 15 minutes pass 12 and Rebecca is waiting for me. Great another thing I have to lie about it.
I quickly scrowl my way through passing people to reach the point of seeing Rebecca sitting across from at a table all by herself. I paced myself to the seat beside her.
"Hey!" I say fast taking in deep breathes. "Are you okay? You're breathing really fast" She states. "Yea I'm good...tried to get here as fast as I could" I heavily breathe, she gave me a weird look "Where were you that you had to run here?" She questioned.
Crap. I showed a losted look , Clueless to what to say "Carter..." She said. "Music Room!" I blurted. "The Music Room?" She questioned once again.
So many things at our school and I said music room. "Yeah..I was.." I paused thinking of anything to say, then a great idea popped in my head "I didn't want to ruin it but I was planning you a big suprise" I made up.
A smiled appeared on her face "Really A suprise" She responded.
"I want to make it up to you!" I piped and then held on to her hands "Stop by the Rivercourt at eight tonight you won't regret it I promise" I explained.
She gave a quick nod "Okay then, I'll see you tonight" She held the smile, getting up from her seat. "Don't be late" I called out. She gave me a quick kiss "Trust me I won't"
When she left I felt really proud of myself, not until seconds later when I realized what I got myself into. I had absolutely nothing planned for tonight, not even a clue what to do. "Good job Carter" I said to myself and sighed. I got 8 hours to think of something, hopefully something will pop up

Math Class
Claire POV
We were in between a lesson or more like our teacher Ms.Steelman ranting about how her 5th boyfriend dumped her, it also was the only class Cassie, Brandon, Ashton, Carter and I all had together.
The teacher clapped her hands to get everyone's attention "Okay class! I've got a math problem for you!" She started off.
As she began to talk Carter leaned over towards my chair "Here we ago with another story" He whispered. "Yeah I can tell." I say a bit rudely turning my head away from him.I wasn't in the mood to speak to him today at all afterthat he didn't respond after that and leaned back to his chair.
Everyone twitted their eyes bringing their attention back on her. "So We have two characters a girl and a boy"
By the way her math problems always have to do with her breakups or how many ferrets she has. Yes ferrets not cats.
"Our girl character just got out of a nasty relationship-" She said before getting cut off.
"Ms is this a continuous of the other story?" The student smirked. Small noise of laughter occured in the background.
"Yes, Yes it is now please zip it before I send you down to the Principal's office Thank you, anyone one else want to say anything before we continued?" She smiled while giving a threatening look to the class.
Everyone simmered down. "Good now lets continued"
As she went on a decided to sneek a note to Brandon who was just a seat ahead of me. Once I finished it I tried to signal him without getting caught.
"Claire Baker!" Ms Steelman snapped, shooting me a glare. The whole class looked back towards me. I slowly lay my back againist my chair "Yes...Ms.Steelman?"
"Are you paying attention Miss Baker?" She questioned. "Of course I am.." I answered. With her one eye she stared "How many cats does our girl character have now?" She asked.
Memory please don't fail me now. Okay in her last she stated the girl chacrter A.K.A Ms.Steelman gets two ferrets after every break-up, so if it's her 5th boyfriend that means she has ten now.
"10" I say proudly. Ms.Steelman rolled her eyes and slammed her hands on the desk "WRONG" She yelled, everyone jumped from there seats. "If you were paying attention the key term was 'nasty' which means the girl character adds a ferret to the two ferrets she buys making it 11" She explained. "That doesn't really make sense" I spoke out of context.
"Dentention for you Miss Baker" She stated. "What?!" I blurted. Carter raised his hand and spoke "Ms do you really think thats fair?"
"Mr.Scott Dentention!" Ms.Steelman called out, wow didn't think Carter would get detention for me. "Looks like we're both in trouble" he mumbled. "I didn't ask you too" I implied, raising my eyebrows.
Towards the side a small snickering noise came, I look over and saw Cassie dying of laugther in her seat.
"Oh Ms.Scott you thinks this is all funny?" Ms.Steelman eyed Cassie. "Yeah Kind of" Cassie tried saying but she couldn't hold in her laugh. "Well this should be funny, detention Ms.Scott!" She annouced another.
Ashton infront tilted his head back "Ha" He laughed pointing his finger near Cassie's face. "Detention Fords" Ms.Steelman said, not even caring. He threw is hands up "Really" He called out.
"Now is there anyone else who would like detention!" She glared around the whole room, silence filled the air. But when it was at the most quietest point a hand rosed to air.
"I wouldn't mind a dentention?" Brandon whispered. "Then Detention! Mr.Jones" She said her last words right before the bell rung. I threw my stuff into my hands and got out of the class room as soon as possible that the last thing I heard was "Detention is after school!"
Lucas and Peyton's House
Sawyer POV
"Hm...So we can pick between Star trek or the better choice Mean girls!" I said excitly leaning on my crutches. "The better choice" Jason picked. I got excited "Yes! Mean girls!" I walk over towards the TV to insert the disc but then he stopped me "No star trek it's obviously the better choice" He denied.
"Have you ever seen Mean girls?!" I expressed "Everyone likes it.." I paused and looked over to him, he kept quiet. "Wait have you ever seen Mean girls have you?" I questioned him.
"No..." He sighed "Not the point plus you haven't seen Star Trek" He grabs the disc from my hand and quickly inserts it into the DvD. "Jason!" I playfully slapped him.
"Guess I won" He smirked laying back against the couch. "Whatever I got the popcorn, can't watch a two hour movie without popcorn" I took a handful and stuffed it in my mouth.
He rolled his eyes, He then looked over and quickly leaned and pushed the bowl out of my hands, I tried to protect it but it made the popcorn fly even higher.
Popcorn filled the floor. "Jason!" I softly yelled again. "Hey I guess that makes two of us now" He chuckled grabbing one that flew on the couch.
"Help me pick it up" I roll up my sleeves and tucked my hair behind my ears as I began putting the popcorn in a bag. "I got an idea, whoever picks up the most popcorn picks the movie" He offered. I took sometime to think about "Deal" I decided.
I quickly started picking up the popcorn and putting it into my bag so far I was winning. "I already won, my bag is 3 quarter more filled than yours" I say.
He smirked and grabbed my bag and tipped all the popcorn out "I already won, my bag is one quarter more filled than your" He imitated what I said laughing. I rolled my eyes "Cheater"
My phone began to ring. I took it out of my pocket and checked who it was.
'Hey sis it's Carter pick me up I got detention and I have no ride :c' It said.
When does he not get in trouble. "Looks like you won, you can watch your movie I got to go pick up my brother" I told. I picked up my crutches and grabbed the keys to the car.
"Woah wait you sure you want to drive" He stated looking down to my broken leg. "Why, you worried about me?" I grined. "No..." He slowly says "Your parents said you weren't allowed to use it" He makes an excuse.
A great idea popped in my head "Fine you drive" I handed him the keys. "I will drive thank you very much" He grabbed it from my hands and made is way out the entrance.
"I'm not doing this for you, I'm doing this for Carter" He annouced from outside.
"Whatever makes you feel better!" I called out. I made my way back to the couch resting my foot up. "I guess there are upsides to having a broken leg" I said to myself, as the movie (Mean girls) began.
••••
The five of us returned back into the classroom and took a seat. I rested my head on my bag, waiting for the teacher to arrive. Brandon turned around and asked "Hey what were you going to tell me in Math class?"
"I was wondering if" I got cut of by loud heels tapping on the floor. Ms.Steelman walked in and look stunned "Why are you kids in here?!" She screamed.
Does she really not remember? Maybe we can sneak out. "You gave us detention.." A kid from the back annouced. I thought to soon...
"I did?" She questioned herself "I mean of course I did!" She restated. I rolled my eyes and sighed this is going to be so much longer than I thought. "Looks like I have to cancel my plans now with my date!" Ms.Steelman described.
"With who? Your ferrets?" Ashton called out. Everyone laughed, even me. "No! with my couch and tv..." She screeched, mumbling the last part.
Brandon turned back around "So..you were wondering what?" He raised his eyebrows and smiled. "I was-" I got interuppted once again by Ms.Steelman. "Brandon Jones sit over there" She pointed to the front corner desk.
"Oh my gosh kill me now!" I fustratedly blurted. Everyone turned around and glared at me. "Opps..." I slowly said shrugging my shoulder.
"Erm Ms.Baker wait 30 more minutes and you are free!" Ms.Steelman responded lowering her glasses to her nose. I sighed and rested my head on the desk 'better to sleep it off' I thought.
30 minutes later
"Alright kids you're all free go! Fast! I have plans!" Ms.Steelman yelled. "To attend her date with Ferrets" Ashton whispered to Cassie and I. "Mr.Fords I can hear you" Ms.Steelman looked towards him.
"That's the point" He bugged. What can you say Ashton will be Ashton to anyone. "Today was fun I guess" Cassie giggled "We'll see you tommorrow Claire, bye" Cassie gave me hug and then she and Ashton walked off.
"So it's been almost half a day and I'm still waiting on what you had to say" I heard Brandon's voice from behind, I turned around and smiled to see him "I was going to say we should hang out more, like we use too" I told. A smile appeared on his face "Is that what you wanted to tell me all day?"
"Not exactly but it was something like that" I smiled back. He put his arm around my shoulder "We should, how about me and you walk home together like we did in Middle School, it will bring back good memories" He recalled.
"Yeah I'd like that" I smiled back.
