"You're graduating in two days?!" The three girls spoke in sync, shocked expressions plastered on their faces. Eleanor slowly nodded, confirming their shock.
"Why are you graduating early?" Fabiola ask with a look of concern on her face.
"Well I really heard you two when we were at Princeton, I have to be an actor, and since Juilliard made it clear that I'm not going to a conservatory, I wanna start my professional career now" she smiled proudly, Maria felt overwhelmed that her friend had decided to leave early, yet she was happy for her for following her passion.
"So you're just done with school?" Fabiola asked, causing Eleanor to smile even wider and exhale.
"Yeah, you're looking at a working woman" there was a small pause before she looked up and assured the girls.
"Well, I have to book a job first, but you're looking at a Pre- working woman" Maria smiled and gave her a hug.
"Good cause since I can't find a sugar daddy, at least I'll have my sugar mommy" she smirked at her friend, wrapping an arm around her shouler as they all shared a laugh.

Maria was stood at her locker, grabbing her bag from it before slamming it shut, revealing a smirking ethan.
"Hey, what's my name doing on your pretty little wrist?" Maria looked to her wrist as he spoke, her other hand instantly coming up to run it off before she was stopped by ethan.
"Keep it on there... I knew you liked me" he crossed his arms with a smug smirk before leaning against the lockers, causing Maria to scoff.
"What makes you say that?... Other than the name on my wrist... I did that absent mindedly.. You know how boring Mr. Shapiro is" Ethan nodded slowly before walking closed to her, gently grabbing her chin and forcing her to look into his eyes. Her heart was beating faster and her breath got more shall owes as he moved his head closer, about to kiss her. Their lips almost touched before he spoke up.
"Because you would've pulled away by now" He lots go of her chin and walks away, causing Maria to snap out of her thoughts and scoff.

Devi walked into the boys locker room followed by Maria, the two of them carrying fresh towels.
"Hi, we have fresh towels" Devi spoke in a singsong voice. Paxton furrowed his eyebrows at the two girls before walking up to them and speaking in a hushed tone.
"Girls, you can't be in the boys locker room" Maria only sighed before she spoke.
"Okay, one. I was dragged here against my will because Devi seriously ships us and two. I did not just unwillingly bust my ass to make sure that these towels were white, that the goggles were crystal clear and were getting to the part where Devi is willingly gonna fix a doorknob for you just so you can tell us to get lost" she spoke in an annoyed tone. Paxton put his hands up in defence his face a bit flustered at the mentioning of them two being shipped.
"That ship is past sailed buddy so don't even think about getting flustered" she huffed and put the fresh towels down on a bleacher.
"You know you guys don't have to do all of that right?our last manager just smoked weed and cut up orange slices for us" Paxton licked his lips, looking Maria up and down.
"Well that's this dipshits fault for wanting to go to princeton, don't criticize the dedication" Paxton backed off and looked at her a bit concerned.
