Big Time Love Song

The group of five teens were all by the Palm Woods pool. "What time is it?" Kendall asked.

"Idiot time." Lilly mumbled to herself as she wrote in a notebook the boys had gotten her. She was on a lounge chair, listening to music through one of her earbuds.

"Girl time." The other boys responded as the four boys put their sunglasses on and looked at the three Jennifers who walked slowly. And just as they were about to say something, the girls stopped them.

"Talk to us when you get in the top ten." The brunette Jennifer spoke up first.

"But not before." The curly-haired Jennifer continued before all three walked away from the group.

"Wow..." Lilly trailed off as she tried not to laugh at her boys. She then laughed when Camille slapped Kendall.

"How could you? With my mom in the hospital, and my huge fight with my best friend, and my zit?" Camille exclaimed.

"Degrassi audition?" The five questioned.

"Wish me luck." Camille smiled at the group. She then slapped Kendall once more before walking away from them.

"Ow."

"Simms twins." Carlos pointed out, looking at a set of twins walking in their direction.

"Too risky. They get pretty upset if you get their names wrong." James warned.

Carlos only put his helmet on, tapping on it, before he stopped the twins from walking. "Hello, ladies." He greeted.

"What's my name?" One of the twins said as they both took off their sunglasses off.

"Uh..." Carlos trailed off. He then watched as the other four made gestures to stop. "Mandy?" He asked. The twins growled and threw Carlos into the pool.

"Sandy." The other four said as the twins walked away.

"Okay, I'm leaving you bozos before you manage to anger the entire female population." Lilly said, closing her notebook. "Be good." She called as she made her way into the lobby.

And upon entering the lobby, Lilly immediately bumped into someone. "I am so sorry. I didn't mean to do that." Lilly apologized, looking at a blonde girl.

"Oh, no. It's my fault, I should've been watching where I was going." The girl responded, giving Lilly a soft smile. "I'm Jo, by the way." She introduced, holding out her hand.

Lilly smiled, shaking Jo's hand. "I'm Lilly. You're new here, right?" She questioned with a small smile.

"Uh, yeah. I'm actually looking for Mr. Bitters." Jo said.

"Cool, come on." Lilly said, linking her arm with Jo's as she led her over to the front desk. Lilly then repeatedly rang the bell until Bitters walked out of the back room.

"What?" He said with a blank stare.

"Well, I shall leave you in the fine hands of Bitters. See you later, Jo." Lilly smiled, hoping to have made a new friend.

"Thanks. Bye, Lilly." Jo smiled with a wave as Lilly walked away.

"Today we are gonna sing a love song." Gustavo said as the five stood in the studio while Kelly handed them lyric sheets. "It's a slow song, about love." He continued.

"The record company wants one of your demo songs to be a ballad." Kelly explained.

"Okay, does anybody else notice the huge guy in the corner?" Kendall asked as the others spoke over each other, looking at the large man in the corner of the room.
