Cynthia pov

We were in class, Sikowitz was drilling coconuts, Andre was on his camera, i was laying on Beck who was reading a book, Jade was cutting her hair, as Tori was telling us what happened.

"So i said ok"

"really" Sikowitz asked still drilling coconuts.

"I had no idea you did stunt working" he said looking at her confused.

"I dont, I'm not a stunt double" she said as beck started playing with my hair.

"then why did you accept the job" Sikowitz asked more confused.

"i dont know, because I'm stupid" she said earning gin my agreeing.

"I've been telling you people, she's stupid. But did anyone believe me?"

"All rigth, why'd the even offer you a job as a stunt double"

"Because of my resume under skills i put all the things you said, and that made them think i could do stunts"

"see, you should never lie on your resume" I said.

"Will you please just call your casting director friend and get me out of this?" She asked standing up and looking at Sikowitz.

"mm, you might not wanna do that" I said sitting up so now i was sitting on Becks lap.

"why not" she asked confused.

"you wanna get blackballed in Hollywood" Jade asked still cutting her hair.

"what do you mean, Blackballed?" she asked more confused.

"In this town, everybody knows everybody" Andre said as he stopped messing with his camera to look at her.

"You make people mad, word gets around" Sikowitz said weirdly looking around

"And no one will hire you" beck said still reading.

"Great, so what do i do, get blackballed or do a stunt and get my face smashed"

"i think you should do both" Jade said as i said "both" we smiled at each other.

"you kno..." Tori started but stopped.

"Stunt doubles rarely get injured"

"yeah but-"

"and you told them you'd do it"

"Which is a commitment"

"And making a commitment is like-- well, take this coconut for example, brown, Spherical, covered with short fibrous hair that--, What were we talking about" Sikowitz asked after his little coconut fantasy.

I laughed shaking my head.

"So what's the stunt you're supposed to be doing anyways" Beck asked closing his book.

"Fall off a chair"

"Fall off a chair" Andre asked confused.

"That's the big stunt you're bugging about" Beck asked more confused.

"Ha, you big baby" Sikowitz said earning in me and Jade laughing.

"Well, it could be dangerous, I'm not a professional stunt girl, i dont know how to fall off a chair and make it look real" She said making me smile and look at jade.

She nodded as i got up and sat in the chair next to her.

"Hey tori" I asked as she looked at me.

"Yeah" she asked confused.
