I'm sat all alone in my trailer crying my eyes out, no one comes looking for me. It feels like I've been sat here for hours. Why haven't they come for shooting? For reading scripts? Is this all a nightmare? My life is a nightmare, completely horrific. My friends think I'm a virgin, but to elaborate to that, they thought I made up the stories.

There was a soft knock on my trailer door, when a familiar voice starts to talk. "Troi, did you find anything?" He asks me trying to open up my trailer door. "Why is your door locked?" He asks me knocking again. "One second." I whimper, and sniffle. "Are you okay?" He asks in a worried tone. "Uh, I-I." I mumble as I unlock the door.

His lips meet mine and so does his arms. "What happened?" He asks hugging me. "It's Ashley, she started rumours that I'm a virgin and my friends don't believe me, they believe her. It's killing me." I whisper, and shortly my cries turn into sobs. "Is my girlfriend a virgin?" He asks chuckling, when this is clearly no time for jokes. "I'm not a virgin." I say in defence.

"I know, I know, I'm just teasing." He smiles. "She's winning." I say crying more into his shirt. "Why can't we just tell Marlene?" He asks me. "She'll say more about me. She already has done enough damage as it is, I don't need anything else done." I say sighing. "As long as you're with me, you're safe." He tells me.

"That's the problem, Keegan. Us being together started this mess, if you've read Romeo and Juliet, everything went downhill from the day they met." I remind him. "We aren't storybook characters, I'm not letting you go. I'm ready to go to hell and back, as long as I know in the end I'll have you it's fine with me. It's not the end quite yet." He says.

"Let's go to the set, we're about to read the script for next week's episode." He smiles wiping the tears with his thumbs. I let out a huge sigh as I hug him one last time. "I love you." I whisper in his ear. "I love you too." He replies. We walk out of my trailer pretending to laugh at something to not be suspicious.

"What we're you two doing?" Ashley pipes up to say so Marlene can hear her when we arrive. "I had to grab something in my trailer, and he followed me. Is there a problem?" I ask raising my voice. "I figured you were just trying to get in Keegan's pants to prove a point to us all." She giggles and so do a few other people.

Marlene didn't hear that. Keegan holds me back by my waist, because if he didn't I would of went up and slapped her. "Please help me." I whisper and start to cry a little. The girls seem to notice I'm crying and approach me. "What's going on? Why is she being like this?" Lucy asks. "Don't cry, it's okay to be a virgin." Shay tells me.

"Guys, don't you get it? She isn't a virgin!" Sasha says pointing out the obvious. "What?" I ask along with Shay and Lucy. "I've caught onto something.." Sasha tells us. Sasha explains the whole story flashback just as I did to Keegan, but this time to al of us. "So that's why this is going on?" Lucy asks raising an eyebrow. "Mhm." I say putting my head down a little.

"Can we talk somewhere more private so Ashley doesn't see or hear us?" I ask them. We run off unnoticed to Lucy's trailer, and lock the door. "Okay, so let me get this straight. This is all happening because of that stupid pact you guys made a few years ago?" Shay asks still confused. "Yes, I broke the pact and she swore to ruin my career if I dated a cast member." I tell them.

"You're dating a cast member?" Lucy says a little in shock, and all their eyes go to Keegan. "Oh my god." Sasha says looking at me then Keegan. "So you guys are?" Shay asks smiling. "Yes, we're dating. And after today will live together." I say smiling. Lucy stands up and walks over to Keegan. "If you hurt her, I swear to god I'll-" she starts raising her voice before Sasha pulls her back.

"Thanks Lucy but I have a feeling this will work out." I giggle looking at Keegan from across the trailer.
