Fast forward 2 weeks:

I awoke to a knocking on my bedroom door. I rolled over to see my clock, 10:30?! It was way to early to be waking up!

I slowly got out of bed while the knocking continued. "I'm coming!" I yelled as a made a seemingly long trek to the door. I opened it to see a grinning blonde haired guy wearing sports clothes standing with a few bags.

"Lucas? I thought you were in Paris! With... Olga was it? Sorry, I was only there for the 3 seconds before you decided to run away with her." I said. "Ha. Ha." he laughed sarcastically. I really was surprised he had made it that long in Paris. "Wait, how did you get in?" I asked, running my fingers through my mess of hair. "You guys should really lock your door." He said and nodded disapprovingly.

Laura came out from her room across the hall, "Claire you're ruining my beauty sleep..." She looked at me and Lucas, rubbed her eyes, and blinked a few times. "Hey! It's Lucas!" She practically screamed. I heard everyone else stir in their rooms, Laura had a VERY loud voice.

Shortly after Laura's loud awakening, we invited Kyra and Geneva to breakfast. "Soooo... Lucas, how's Olivia?" Kyra asked. "Actually, it's Olga, and I think I'm in love. She's so hot and funny, and hot, and intelligent, and hot." He said dreamily. everyone stared at in questionably. "You said hot 3 times." Julia said.

"You're right, I just put in the other words to spread out the hots." Lucas admitted. "But, I think she really likes me. And we have so much fun together." He said in a dream like state. And he actually sighed, what had this girl done to him? "Whatever you say Lucas..." I took a big bite of my waffles, just when my cell phone rang.

"Shhhittgfuktvu!" I yelled. I quickly swallowed my huge bite and answered my phone. "Hewwow? I mean, hello?" I answered quite smoothly, if I do say myself. "Hey! Um, Claire. It's um, Kwai, like Kwai Marsh Brown..." Duh, do I know anymore Kwai Marsh Browns? "And I was wondering, um, if, um maybe, um, you want to go to the movies?" Aw! He sounded so nervous, I didn't know I was that intimidating, but...

It had been 2 weeks since the round of Truth or Dare, and I was feeling a bit awkward. Abby had called me a few times, but... I had told her we were all very busy and we couldn't hang out. SUE ME! I'm bitch! I know.

I had to play it cool on the phone with Kwai if I really wanted a "date". "Oh, I'll tell everyone..." "NO!" he screamed so loud I pulled the phone away from my ear and cringed. I saw everyone at the table staring at me, so I obviously cranked up my middle finger.

"I guess. Why not! YOLO!" I laughed nervously. This was blowing up in my face, way to be cool Claire! "Great! I'll meet you at Buckley's Cinema at 2! See ya then!" He didn't hang up fast enough for me to hear the "Yesssss!" he had said.

"Is everything cool Claire?" Geneva asked me. "Its... Great. But does anyone know where Buckley's Cinema is?"

"Nope." Laura said. "Laura! I was going for a dramatic line!" I whined.
