       ONCE the two arrived to masons room the making out continued, She changed into a shirt of masons and some of his shorts as well.

"Nice outfit."  He grinned and watched as she walked over. like the two curious pre teens they were, they begun to kiss all over each other, giggles filled the room. As mason kissed Lux's neck and collarbones.

"Mason..!" She giggled softly, Mason had a smile on his face as he left hickeys on her, he really enjoy finally being able to kiss and touch her romantically.

"One second- I'm gonna go freshen up quickly." Lillian said getting up kissing his cheek. She left the room walking the washroom.

"Hey," she knocked being turning the handle to reveal tracy leaning against the bathroom cabinet under sink. "Get out!" She yelled and Lillian looked over to her arm, cut and bleeding into a towel now. scissors laid on the floor next to her.

Lillian quickly shut the door in shock from what she saw that night, tracy was cutting her self, she knew something was wrong from the get-go but she never knew how deep Tracy's pain ran.

she went back to masons room staying quiet as he waited for her. "hey you alright...are you tired?" he asked wanting to stay up and kiss her more not knowing what she had seen. "yeah i just need sleep- there is school tomorrow." she tried to laugh it it off, but deep down didn't know what to think.

Lux went to lay down kissing his cheek before getting comfortable, he laid next her one arm on her waist comforting her.

The next morning Melanie made oatmeal for everyone, they sat around the table everyone except for tracy, even Evie made it downstairs before sleeping beauty.

Lux couldn't stop seeing what she saw last night, tracy's cuts. she tried to stomach the oatmeal without thinking about that. Mason and Evie giggled and laughed with each other while she zoned out.

suddenly tracy came into the kitchen glaring at Lux and Evie. "well excuse me?" Tracy questioned playing with her long sleeve shirt, Evie smiled at trace who only frowned in response.

"i made some oatmeal, come eat sweetie." Melanie smiled but tracy refused. "i'm on a diet so..." she said quietly.

"uh no, you should put some chocolate chips in it it's actually really good." Melanie's boyfriend Brady who also sat at the table tried to convince her but she just rolled her eyes and started to walk. "come guys let's get to school" she motioned to Lux and Evie who stared at each other.

"come on tracy. You know you get mean when you don't eat." Mason said and tracy frowned. "fuck you," she scoffed walking away and Mason rolled his eyes taking Lux and his bowl to the sink. "come on Evie let's go." Tracy said glaring at Lux for a moment.

"wait, Evie can i just talk to tracy for a moment." Melanie got up stopping tracy - "yeah sure..." Evie said going up stairs to grab her backpack now. Melanie looked at tracy with a serious look, lux could tell Tracy thought Lux told her what she saw last night and she thought maybe she should but she knew that was something very private for Trace.

"does Brooke have a boyfriend?" Melanie asked just outside of the kitchen as Lux ease-dropped. "no. he lives in Orlando now...can i go to school?" She rolled her eyes sighing. "yeah." Melanie said before loading up the car with backpacks taking the girls to school, Mason caught a ride with Luke - aka life guard hoy.

Tracy barely said one word to Lux, and Evie could tell something had happened between the two, so she was going to anything she could to keep breaking them farther apart.

"All of a sudden Medina has a ghetto booty?" Tracy scoffs and Evie smiled leaning against the school wall — all lux could do was stare at the girls butt comparing her own small one. "i think she stuffs" Evie said and Lux looked confused.

"stuffs?" The girl laughed a bit and Evie smiled, "you know toilet paper to enhance the boo-tay." She laughed and so did the other girls. "Well she ain't got shit on these double cheese burgers." Astrid, Another popular girl shook her hips making Medina look back in disgust. Lux couldn't help but giggle Astrid was pretty funny.

"shake it don't break it. bitch" she said as she kept walking and Astrid kept a smile on her face. "whatever fuck her," She said and the girls began to laugh and ooo at Medina's comment before Javi walked over. one of the finest boys in the school, Ever girl wanted him and every guy wanted to be him. Well every girl except lux.

"hey ladies," he said walking over and all the girls lined up to greet him with a hug like he was a celebrity at a meet and greet. After all the girls greeted him he singled out Lillian. "hey lux right? can i holla at you?" Javi asked and all the girls looked a bit surprised.

"uh.." Lux looked to Tracy who smiled mouthing to her to go, "sure," she said taking the boys hand walking a bit away from girls but to far they couldn't hear exactly what javi was saying.

"i was wondering if maybe you wanted to kick it sometime." the light-skin boy said playing it cool but Lux was genuinely not interested.

"uh..." before Lux could answer Evie walked over and smiled. "Here's my cell number Javi. Lux is pretty busy but me and Tracy will be hanging out tonight. if you wanted to stop by." she flashed a fake smiled and Lux looked down Avoiding eye contact with the boy, she noticed Mason in the corner of her eye going into Luke's car again clearly ditching school.

"sorry guys...i'll be right back." Lux said not wanting to deal with Evie anymore, what if she did want to go out with Javi? She didn't but if she did that's none of her goddamn business,

Ofcourse Evie Zamora couldn't let her have the spotlight — Evie was starting to piss Lux off real bad and she needed to tell tracy about it. After all Tracy was her best-friend right?

"Mason..!" Lux yelled and noticed the smirk that suddenly appeared on Luke's face. "little lilly, you want a ride to?" The boy asked and Mason just stared at Lux like a sad puppy, shit maybe he'd seen me talking to Javi. she thought to herself.

"uhhuh...where are you guys headed?" she questioned biting her lower lip before hopping into the convertible. "the beach, to surf, and smoke some bud." Mason said flatly and Lillian smiled a little bit. "mind if i tag along? all i need is my bathing suit." she asked cutely and Luke said yes immediately gaining a look from Mason.

"pass me a smoke?" Lux asked pulling a lighter from her pockets. "since when do you smoke?" Luke asked and she giggled.

"since i was old enough to understand the word cigarette." she said watching mason pass back his pack handing it to her, she took one out popping it between her lips and lighting it up blowing out the smoke after with ease.

"Don't tell Mel though...you know she'd be pissed." She said to both of them but mostly meaning Luke. "don't worry your secrets safe with us — ain't that right Mas?" Luke said driving to the Freeland's house to grab all of there suits and surf boards.
