It's 6am when the sound of an alarm clock fills the room.

Camila wakes up first and climbs out of bed. She takes a quick shower and then changes into her long sleeve crop top and white jeans along with a bow on her head, her signature accessory.

Camila sits at the dresser and starts to do her makeup, attempting to put eyeliner on correctly for the first time in her life.

Dinah wakes up 15 minutes later, cursing on the way to the bathroom and ends up tripping over her feet. Camila finishes her makeup and heads down the hall ready to eat something. By the time she finishes Dinah just gets out the shower and is blow drying her hair.

Camila smiles and heads over to Dinah and starts drying her hair for her. Dinah gives her friend a questioning look but decides to apply her makeup to save time.

Once they finish, Dinah changes into her clothes and they both look at each other immediately, ready to observe their outfits.

"Ok Mila, I like the jeans, the bow's gotta go, shirt is a yes shirt, shoes are cute, and your hair looks damp." Dinah says while eyeing her choice of clothes.

Camila nods and looks at Dinah's outfit of choice. She bites her lip and says,"I like everything Dinah but are you sure about the heels? You might fall or something."

Dinah mumbles and says she'll be fine and grabs a beanie to put on her head.

"Ready?"

"Only if you are." Camila responds happily.

They both head down the hall, out the door, and into the car.

Camila is somehow the better driver out of the pair so she takes her hands behind the wheel.

"Hey Mila do you have your schedule ready?" Dinah asks.

Camila nods her head and looks out the window longingly, awaiting the day to come. It happens to be pouring outside and she thinks she hears thunder.

"There's a pretty big storm outside Dinah, are you sure we should go to school today? Can't we go tomorrow?" Camila asks nervously.

Dinah bites her lip and shakes her head.

"Nah, as much as I don't wanna go we have to. Let's just see how this turns out. If anything bad happens we just ditch." Dinah says calmly.

Camila smiles and after a few more minutes they finally arrive at their destination.

Dinah's the first to step out, letting herself get exposed to the rain yet somehow she makes it look like she's stepped out straight from a movie scene.

Camila, being the klutz that she is, is too busy staring at Dinah to notice that she's slipping from her drivers seat. It's too late by the time she puts a leg out and ends up falling face flat on the wet concrete.

"Oooh that's gotta hurt." Dinah snickers but immediately comes to Camila's aid once she sees that she's not moving.

Camila wipes some dirt off her mouth and looks up to see Lauren approaching from a distance.

"Shit, shit, shit! Dinah lets just clean up inside..."

"What? Why?" Dinah responds clueless.

"Cause...never mind lets just go please." Camila says hurriedly, wanting to avoid Lauren and her friends today.

"Fine ugh. Walz put your leg down, let me help you up." Dinah says, smiling at her fallen friend.

Camila struggles standing up and puts her bag over her shoulder.
