As students came out of school Serene was trying to calm Bic down while Serena stormed out with bloodshot eyes. Aaron ran out after her.

Aaron:
Serena!!!

Serena:
Leave me alone asshole!!

Aaron Catches up and holds Serena's shoulder.

Aaron:
I'm sorry I didn’t break up with Daisy earlier but I have now.

Serena:
(Slaps Aaron's hand away) You sure cause I bet she did the breaking up.

Aaron:
(Holds her shoulders with both hands) Look Serene I'm sorry…

Serene:
(Pushes Aaron away) So what now that it's over between you and Daisy? Is this the part where we run away together and live happily ever after?

Aaron:
Look I stuck to all my promises gentleman, faithful... I just couldn't bring myself to end things with her yet.

Serena:
Fine. I'm just going to ask you this one question and if you answer right we might be able to move on.

Aaron:
Sure, whatever, ask away.

Serena:
Who do you like me or Daisy?

Aaron:
You of course.

Serena:
Honest answer Aaron. Me or her.

Aaron:
Well…

Serena:
Well!!?

Aaron:
I don't know.

Serene:
Hm, you know deep down I knew this would never work. I knew it and I should have listened to myself but you were just so charming. You are like some predator attracting its prey with some pheromone. you know what? That's exactly what you are, you are a Predator. You feed on broken hearts even when you don't want to Because for some reason you need to. It's your nature. I thought maybe I could tame you but no. You are a cold-blooded and untamable creature and Daisy was always one of your victims, you just didn't know it. Even if you did break up with Daisy I would only end up like her and you would cheat on me every single chance you got.

Aaron:
Serena no…

Serena:
Enough. I liked you Aaron more than I have ever liked anyone in my life. You made me feel happiness I have never felt before, a type of bliss I cannot describe but at the same time you've made me experience sadness I have never felt before, an anguish I cannot describe. I was a fool, the red flags were there, they were everywhere but foolish me, I decided to fall for you. So don't think I hold it against you. The fault is mine. You just did what you were built to do, so go on and find another girl to play with.

As Serena walks away. Aaron is left standing feeling this heaviness in his chest, he just stands there looking at the ground, he's been dumped many times before but this time it actually hurt.

Serene sees her sister crying for what she could have sworn was her first time. Actually, it was. Serene and Serena got their names from how tranquil their birth was and Serena has never cried, till now. Serene knows that her sister is seriously hurt and goes to console her. Bic, disappointed with how the night turned out, decides he needs to walk and think about things all on his own. He leaves and walks down the street toward home, alone, without telling anyone.

Alexis who was watching through the mirror saw all that had happened and she had a mouthful of things to say.

Alexis:
My, what a terrible occasion this turned out to be. Now I shall use this opportunity to teach those insolent brats a lesson.

Serene:
Serena fix your mascara you look awful

Serena:
How I look is the last thing on my mind right now.
