The next day, Maire is inside of the treatment room along with Jordan. Both Maire and Jordan were using the parallel bars separately, one on either side of the other.

"Hey, why was Gael acting differently the other day?" said Jordan, questioning Maire.

"No offense Jordan, but that's actually none of your concern." said Maire, as she tells Jordan. "Sorry but, that's based on his personal life. And I don't want to talk about that in public."

"Oh okay, don't worry I understand." said Jordan, as she understood, while continuing with the conversation. "It's because Beth thinks that Gael's former girlfriend dumped him, which explains his sudden leave back to the waiting room."

"Did Leah say anything to you girls?" said Maire, asking Jordan.

"No, Leah didn't told us anything." said Jordan

"Really?" said Maire

"Yeah, Beth and I tried to break her by annoying her all day, for her to tell us the truth." said Jordan, as she chuckles. "But she wouldn't budge. We actually failed to get any information from her."

"Oh." said Maire

"Yeah." said Jordan, as she tells Maire. "How about you?"

"Gael told me something but I literally forgot most of it." said Maire

"So..." said Jordan, as she dragged. "Are we cool?"

"We?" said Maire, not knowing what Jordan was trying to say.

"The video for the ice pond incident." said Jordan, reminding Maire.

"Oh, yeah don't worry we're cool." said Maire, as she continued. "I already forgave you girls for that, so it's fine. Either way, it was going to come out, and mostly somebody else would have published it."

"Yeah, we kinda didn't mean to after we you know, had over differences." said Jordan

Both Maire and Jordan continue to walk on the parallel bars, with Maire asking about her day.

"So how was your day?" said Maire, asking Jordan.

"Good, I guess." said Jordan, as she moved from one side to another. "Well, besides soccer, good. How about you?"

"Good." said Maire

"That's good." said Jordan

Jordan stopped walking on the parallel bars.

"So how's your soccer problems going?" said Jordan, as she questions Maire. "I heard about your offer to play for the Utah Royals, along with Christen."

Maire sighs, as she also stops.

"I'm actually not looking forward to that." said Maire, as she admits. "Christen wants me to be alongside her, so that she can mentor me in my professional soccer career, but I'm actually going to turn down her offer. Since I'm not planning on joining her." 

"Oh." said Jordan

Meanwhile in the waiting room...

Gael was in the waiting room along with Leah and Beth.

Gael and Leah were talking with each other, while Beth was singing (What I've Been Looking For: HSMTMTS) version.

"It's hard to believe that I couldn't see. You were always there beside me. Though I was alone with no one to hold, you were always there beside me." said Beth, as she sang. "This feeling's like no other, I want you to know!"

Everytime Beth tried to hit a high note, she would wiggle her eyebrows at Leah, while making a shape of a heart with her hands when Gael wasn't looking. Leah would glare at Beth, once she has a chance to do so.

"She's really into that song isn't she." said Gael, as he turns to Leah.

"Huh? Yeah, Beth likes to sing High School Musical songs." said Leah

"I've never had someone as good for me as you! No one likes you!" said Beth, singing a little bit louder than ever before, changing up the lyrics a bit. "You were so lonely before, but it looks like you finally found it! What you were looking for!"  

"Beth." said Leah, as she gritted her teeth at Beth, while knowing that the last part wasn't part of the lyrics from the actual song.  

"Yeah, to be honest I kinda don't some songs from High School Musical 1, 2, or 3." said Gael

"Oh good." said Leah, using her outside voice.

"Huh?" said Gael

"Uh, I mean oh good cause I kinda don't either." said Leah, as she corrects herself while chuckling nervously.

"You okay?" said Geal, asking Leah.

"Huh? Yeah." said Leah, as she turns to Gael, before the two of them turn back to Beth.

"Do-do-do, do-do! Whoa-oh, ooh, ooh! Do-do-do!" said Beth, as she continued to sing off key.

Leah turns to Gael.

"So, uh... the hug from yesterday... if you felt uncomfortable I..." said Leah, changing the conversation.

"Don't worry Leah, it's okay." said Gael, as he admits.

"Wait, you guys hugged?" said Beth, as she mouths to Leah.

Leah shushes Beth, by signaling her.

Moments later...

Both Gael and Leah become friends and exchange numbers.

"Adorable." said Beth, as she fake coughs.

Leah looks at her while looking back at Gael.

"Just ask him out already." said Beth, as she fake coughs while joking around.

"Hey Beth, are you alright?" said Gael, asking Beth since he didn't realize that she was actually fooling around the whole time.

"Hm? Yes I am, thank you for asing." said Beth, as she smiles innocently.

Leah continues to talk with Gael.

Meanwhile, inside the treatment room...

"Hey was that Beth singing a couple of minutes ago?" said Maire, asking Jordan.

"Yeah, it seems like it." said Jordan, as she chuckled.

"Well, not bad." said Maire, as she chuckles as well.

"Yeah, well yesterday was even more funny." said Jordan, as she laughed.

"Why do you say that?" said Maire, asking Jordan.

"Because, she got wet by someone the other day by somebody who we aren't sure of who it is." said Jordan, as she admits.

Maire stops laughing.

"Seriously?" said Maire, as she starts to suspect that Leah might be their next door neighbor.
