Becca's POV
It was 3rd period which meant English with Jess and usually we just mess around in that class. We both hated the teacher since she's a bitch and yet we both have Bs in this class but that's just because we bullshit everything and since she never checks it we just get the points. Right now we were supposed to be discussing the 'deeper meaning' of some photograph but really Jess and I were over here singing Photograph by Ed Sheeran and taking stupid pictures while she wasn't looking. "Alright let's see what guys came up." Mrs. Woods says as I rolled my eyes. Please don't pick me please don't pick me
"Becca what did you and Jess come up with?" She asks well shit
I looked down and my paper and well that didn't help since it was blank then I looked up at the screen and I saw a boy who looked to be playing in a pile of trash or something and it looked like he was jumping from one pile to the next. And it looked like there was a war scene going on in the background. It kinda reminded me of what my life was like living on the streets before the gang took me in. I didn't really have a game plan or anything really.
"Well in the picture it looks like the kid is kinda playing in the garbage and it looks like he's poor and he doesn't really have any other family with him. In fact it kinda looks like he's on his own and you know that just kinda reminds of life you know no one really gives you like a life manual or anything like that because that's just not how it works. You have to figure out this thing we call life and what you're going to do with yours. But in the picture you don't a crying,Scared little kid you see a kid who's just playing and living in the moment and so that I think is saying that yea we have to figure out what to do next but for right now just live in the moment" I say I was about to continue but she cut me off like she always does. "Okay that's kinda a more general opinion. But I want you to dig deeper. Anyone else?" She asks I slumped back in my seat. Well Damn I just poured out my heart to you and you act as if it was nothing. "Hey don't let that bitch get you down kid. I for one think that was a good interpretation of the picture. And besides its not like you'll be needing this stuff anyway." She says "Yea I guess" I say for the rest of the period I just stayed kinda quiet I hate it when people make me feel inferior. Almost as much as I hate the awkwardness between Camila and I right now. Camila and Lauren are now officially a thing so i have no idea what that makes Camila to me now. I mean is she another mom to me now? What? It's just so fustrating. "Hey Bec are you okay you've been pretty quiet?" Jamie asks I look up at all my concerned friends. It was now lunch and we were all sitting on the football field. "Oh yea I'm fine" I say looking back down at my sandwhich. "Bullshit baby what's going on?" Megan asks worried I sigh and look at her Damn it those eyes just by looking in them you can get me to confess a murder or spill the most important secret. "It's just this whole thing between Camila and Lauren. I mean now that they are officially an item what does that make Camila to me. Another mom? I mean don't get me wrong I love them both to pieces but-" I cut myself off trying to think of an explanation. "But now that they are together you don't know what they are to you?" Megan asks "Exactly! I mean I know Lauren is my mom but Camila has always been like a best friend to me. Someone who can make me life until I cry,Someone who I can tell anything to,Someone who I know will always be there even at 2 AM." I say "Well then she's still going to be that person except now that person is dating your mom" Jake says "Ew that would be like one of you guys dating Lauren" I say "Actually I wouldn't mind dating planet green eyes" Jess says "You better watch yourself Carson!" Jamie says playfully shoving her girlfriend. "No but Jake,Jamie,and I all get it. It was awkward when Jamie got with Jess or when Jake got with Jeremy. Because you know there's this new person in your life that kisses your sibling and now you got another cool awesome friend. You'll get through this awkward stage babe" Megan reassures me. "Yea it even took a while for all of us to adjust to you two always making out and shit" Jamie says "We do not always make out!" I defend "Uh huh sure so is that why you two snuck away during photography to make out at the park next to our school" Jeremy says "That was a one time thing" Megan says "Then why has it happened on several occasions" he says "Teenagers these days can never keep their hands off eachother" Jake says "I know right" Jeremy says both of them shaking their heads "Ew gross old people!" Jess says "Let's get away before we get affected!" Jamie says and then we all ran away from Jeremy and Jake while they were chasing us. We basically just acted like complete idiots but we didn't care.

After school
"We'll see you later Bec and try not to get killed by planet green eyes!" Jamie jokes as I walked to my house. She said that because grades were mailed out today and I was super nervous about my Math and Spanish grades mostly because I know I flunked the Math final and Spanish well it turns out the sub gave us the wrong test so that didn't count so now I'm either screwed or I just got lucky. "I'm home!" I yell as I walk in so far no yelling that's a good sign right? I shrugged my shoulders and went upstairs to my room. I had a lot of homework to get done so I thought I might as well get it over with. I was working through my English homework until it started asking me some really stupid questions including words like "if you have had background knowledge in the history of art then you know.." And I'm just like bruh this is English Class not Art if I wanted to learn about Art then obviously I would have signed up for it. I gave up on that and moved on to the next assignment and then I was done. I decided to play a little guitar since Camila has been teaching me to play a few songs. I decided to play
Show You by Shawn Mendes. I had gotten through the first verse just fine let's see if I can do this chorus without messing up.
"And I will fuck this up again cause I don't know the chords that well. Camila why haven't you taught me this part?" I sang to the tune as I messed up again I heard a familiar chuckle and look up to see Camila standing in the doorway. "Oh uh hey Camila" I say setting my guitar aside. "Hey so I thought you might be curious as to what your grades are" she says handing me the report card. I took it from her and opened it with caution. The girls always look at my grades before I do. So since Lauren isn't up here pissed I'm guessing my grades were decent and I was correct. For the Quarter grades I had a D+ in math which is almost a C. Straight Bs and then an A in softball. And then for the semester I got a C- in math and then straight Bs and an A in softball. "Oh my god this is so awesome!!" I say "it is!! We are all so proud of you Bec!" She says hugging me. "Yeah so it looks like my GPA is a 3.0 and that's the highest it's ever been." I say "That's great!" She says smiling. "I'm posting this on Snapchat." I say taking out my phone to take a picture of it. I posted it to my story and captioned it with
Looks like I just might graduate

Camila chuckled as she Ruffles my hair. "You've been spending way too much time with Dinah" she says "Yea but seriously would you show me how the chorus goes?" I ask picking my guitar back up. "Actually I came up here to talk to you" she says "Oh" I say "Yea listen Bec I've noticed things have been awkward between us and I know it's because I'm in a relationship with your mom. But look nothing is going to change Bec I still love you just the same as when I wasn't dating you're mom. Would you tell me what's bugging you?" She asks I sigh looking down. "I'm just afraid.." I say trailing off. "Of?" She asks I tried to fight the tears but I couldn't stop them so I looked up into her chocolate brown eyes "loosing you" I say "Oh Becca come here" she says I put my guitar down and climbed into her arms as she wrapped her arms around me. "You're not going to loose me Bec no matter what the outcome of this relationship is Good or Bad I promise you will never loose me. I love you way too much to not have you in my life Babe. You are just someone I can't live without you're almost as important as your mom is to me." She says "Ew you're not going to fuck me are you?" I say joking "What? No! No!! This Cuban booty is saved for someone else." She says "Dammit Lauren gets to have all the fun" I say as she chuckles. "I love you Becca." She says I look up at her and smile "I love you too Mo-Mila" I say shocked that I almost just said Mom. She must have noticed too because her eyes went wide but she must've decided not to make a big fuss over it. "Now what do you say I teach you the rest of that song" she say I nodded as I grabbed my guitar she went to go grabs hers and we just sorta jammed out. I'm glad that nothing is going to change between Mila and I at least not now.
