--Time Waster # 46--
*AT SCHOOL*
Cami: *Sniffles*.
Sal: *Turns around* Cam, be quiet.
Cami: I'm trying!
Sal: *Rolls her eyes and turns back around, adjusting her purple cap*
Principal: Darren Shane Foster.
Darren: *Walks onto the stage and recieves his diploma*.
Sal: Darren's middle name is Shane?
Cami: *Sobs*.
Sal: *Whirls around* Cami! What the heck is your problem?
Cami: We're old! *Cries uncontrollably*.
Cheyenne: *Taps Cami on the shoulder* Dude, if you quit crying then I'll buy you ice cream after graduation.
Cami: *Immediately stops crying* Okay!
Cheyenne: *Rolls her eyes*.
Sal: *Sighs*.
Sophia: *Rushes over* Cami, couldn't you save the fake crying until after the ceremony?? *Starts fixing Cami's make-up*.
Cami: *Makes a disgusted face as Sophia works*.
Cheyenne: Fake?
Cami: Sorry, I just wanted food.
Cheyenne: WHAT.
Principal: Sally Dawn Thunder!
Cami: Wow. Never knew your middle name before.
Sal: *Rolls her eyes and walks onto the stage to recieve her diploma*.
Cheyenne: You've known her since kindergarten but never knew her middle name?
Cami: *Shrugs*.
*ONSTAGE*
Sal: THANK YOU, THANK YOU! I'd just like to say that--
Principal: Um, Sal? You don't really make a speech here.
Sal: *Ignores the principal* -- I'm so happy to have gotten the chance to get to know all of you! Even though I don't know any of your names, or what you like to do for fun, or... actually never mind, I don't know any of you and I probably hate you all. THANK YOU! *Skips off the stage*.
Principal: Um, alright... Cameron Kae James!
Cami: *Walks onto the stage and recieves her diploma* Thank you! *Starts dancing and squeals* I MADE IT, I MADE IT! TAKE THAT, DORIS!
Doris: *From the crowd* SHUT UP AND SIT DOWN, YOU HUGE FAMILY EMBARRASSMENT!
Cami: Embarrassment!? I GRADUATED HIGH SCHOOL, SHORT STACK! WHAT DID YOU DO? That's right - NOTHING.
Doris: I DID MY CHORES AND BOUGHT A GOLDFISH WITH MY OWN ALLOWANCE MONEY!
Cami: I FED THAT GOLDFISH TO MY CAT THIS MORNING!
Doris: *Gasps* MOMMY!
Cami: *Skips happily off the stage*.
Sal: That was harsh.
Cami: Your point is?
Sal: *Shakes her head*.
Principal: Let's pretend that didn't just happen... Cheyenne Marie Callahan.
Cheyenne: *Comes out, collects her diploma, and exits the stage*.
Cami: That's it?
Cheyenne: What?
Cami: No big bang?
Cheyenne: Sorry, telling the students I hated them and yelling at my little sister were already taken.
Cami & Sal: Touché.
Cheyenne: *Smirks*.
Principal: Alfred Fitz Adams.
Cami: *Snorts*
Sal: *Chokes on her gum*
Alfred: Shut it!
Cami & Sal: *Straighten up*.
Cami: Huh, never knew his name either.
Sal: *Shakes her head* Me neither.
Cheyenne: Did you guys even know my middle name until today?
Sal & Cami: Nope.
Cheyenne: -_-
Principal: *Rattles off a bunch of other names*.
Cami: *Taps her foot impatiently* Is this almost over yet?
Sal: Chill, Zack is last and we promised we'd try to be patient.
Cami: I'm not sure if that's a promise I can keep.
Cheyenne: Its only been twenty minutes, so relax or no ice cream for you.
Cami: *Stands completely still*.
Cheyenne: *Rolls her eyes* I said relax not stand like a puppet.
Cami: :P
Prinicipal: Zachary Andrew Evans.
Zack: *Enters the stage and recieves his diploma, then exits*.
Cami: *Sighs* No one does anything crazy up there, anymore. >:P
*THE NEXT DAY - AFTER EVERYONE HAS CELEBRATED GRADUATION AND WHATNOT*
Cami: *Barges into Sal's house and runs into the living room*.
Sal: *Is lounging on her couch with a bowl of chocolate ice cream whilst watching some cheesy romance film*.
Cami: Sal?
Sal: *Jumps when she see's Cami* Cam!? This isn't what it looks like!!
Cami: *Raises an eyebrow* So you're not sitting on your couch eating sweets and watching crappy movies?
Sal: THIS IS NOT A CRAPPY MOVIE!
Cami: ....
Sal: .... Let's just never speak of this, alright?
Cami: Sure... o_O
Sal: Anyways, why are you here?
Cami: Well, I got into a University close to that place we always eat at now--
Sal: Cherry Berry?
Cami: No, the other one.
Sal: What other one?
Cami: That one with the hamster mascot guy.
Sal: What? What hamster mascot guy? I've never seen him...
Cami: Oh. That really sketchy place?
Sal: ... That wasn't a mascot, that was a giant rat.
Cami: Oh. Well, he was friendly.
Sal: o_O
Cami: Anyway, I'm going for some film shizz.
Sal: Film shizz?
Cami: Yeah, well it's film, some digital crap, acting crap, blah-blah-blah.
Sal: Sounds fun.
Cami: It is! :D Did you open any more letters?
Sal: After last time with all those mean rejection letters? No way.
Cami: Well you should. Where are they?
Sal: *Points to the fire place*.
Cami: SAL!
Sal: What? I haven't burned them yet!
Cami: Yet. -.- *Pulls the envelopes out of the fire place and sits down on the floor* Okay, what's first?
Sal: Uh, I don't know. Open the University of MN one.
Cami: *Rips it open and begins reading* Dear Sally Thunder-- Pfft!
Sal: CAMERON!
Cami: Right! Sorry! We regret to inform you--
Sal: Shut up.
Cami: -.- Don't blame me for your problems.
Sal: *Glares at Cami*.
Cami: Well then, here's one for that creative something-or-another college.
Sal: Alright, rip it open.
Cami: *Opens the envelope* OOH! ACCEPTED!
Sal: Really!?
Cami: No.
Sal: -.-
Cami: Hmm. Oh, you applied to Hamline too? :D
Sal: Whatever.
Cami: *Opens the letter and begins reading* Congra-- YOU GOT ACCEPTED, SALLY! :D
Sal: Oh shut up.
Cami: I'm serious.
Sal: *Perks up and snatches the envelope out of Cam's hands* OH MY GOSH! HOLYMUSHROOMSANDPIEANDCOWSANDCATSANDOHMAHGERD!
Cami: Did you just say "Oh mah gerd"?
Sal: I was in the moment, alright?
Cami: *Shakes her head* :D
Sal: *Nods in agreement* Let's go tell the guys! *Runs out of the house*.
Cami: DON'T YOU WAIT FOR ANYBODY!?
Sal: NO!
Cami: >_<
*AT ALFRED'S HOUSE*
Alfred: Quit hitting me!
Darren: It's not my fault you suck!
Voice on TV: GAME OVER!
Alfred: *Throws his controller at the wall* I hate this game. -.-
Darren: *Snickers*.
Sal: *Runs into the house* GUESS WHAT, GUESS WHAT, GUESS WHAT!!
Alfred & Darren: What?
Sal: I GOT INTO COLLEGE! For music, to be exact. ^_^
Alfred: Cool!
Cami: *Runs into the house soon after, panting and sweating* YOU... YOU.. SUCK! BUTTS!
Darren: o_O
Sal: *Rolls her eyes* She's mad because I didn't wait up for her, and she's out of shape.
Cami: I AM NOT!
Sal: YOU'RE LAZY, SO YES YOU ARE!
Cami: MY SHAPE IS JUST FINE, THANK YOU!
Sal: *Face palm* That's not even what I meant. It's not literal, you idiot. It just means you're out of breath too-- you know what? I'm not even going to explain this to her.
Cami: Hmph! *Drops down on the couch* Oh, I got into the same college as her!
Darren: Nice. :)
Sal: Yeah. So how about you guys? I already know Cheyenne's heading off to UCLA, and Zack is going to some college down there as well.
Darren: Yeah, about that... *Scratches the back of his head*.
Cami: What? Not going?
Sal: It's cool if you're not Darren.
Darren: No, it's not that. Its--
Sal: ARE YOU CHEATING ON ME!?
Cami: WHAT.
Darren: Huh?
Sal: Nothing. Go on.
Darren: I'm actually moving.
Everyone But Darren: WHAT!?
Darren: Yeah, to London.
Sal: LONDON!? WHY THE CRAP ARE YOU MOVING THERE!?
Darren: Well my mom got a job there and I can't live on my own yet, so..
Cami: WHY NOT!?
Darren: Well let's see-- I'm broke.
Alfred: You can't leave me! You're my best friend!
Sal: Be a man, Alfred. Even Cam isn't bawling her eyes out.
Cami: *Is standing in the corner with her back turned to everyone, sobbing like a child who just got put in a time-out*.
Alfred: You spoke too soon.
Sal: Shut up. -.-
Darren: Yeah... and I leave tomorrow morning.
Everyone But Darren: WHAT!?
Alfred: WHAT THE CRAP, MAN!? *Starts sobbing into a pillow*.
Sal: Oh gosh, not you too. *Sighs* Well looks like I'll be babysitting these two for the next month.
Alfred: *Lets out a loud, choked sob*.
Sal: Make that two months.
Cami: *Does the same, only more dramatic*.
Sal: Screw it, there goes my whole freaking Summer.
Darren: :(
*THE NEXT DAY - AT THE AIRPORT*
Darren: Well, this is it then. Hopefully we'll all get to hang out again soon.
Sal: Yeah, and there's always Skype.
Alfred: I don't know how to use Skape!
Cami: It's Skype, you idiot.
Sal: Alright, you two. That's enough.
Cami & Alfred: Yes ma'am.
Darren: ... Sooo.
Alfred: *Nearly tackles Darren into a hug* I'M GOING TO MISS YOU!
Cami: Out of all the boys in the world, you got stuck with the one who acts like a sissy.
Sal: Hey, he's just sensitive.
Cami: Yeah, okay. *Whistles*.
Sal: Shut up, Cami.
Cami: *Smirks*.
Alfred: *Pulls away and wipes at his eyes while tears are still rushing out*.
Cami: *Raises an eyebrow at Sal*.
Sal: Oh, shove it. *Gives Darren a hug* We'll miss you. *Pulls away* Your turn, midget.
Cami: *Glares at Sal, then hugs Darren* Uh, I'm not really one for sappy airport moments, so...
Darren: I love you, too.
Cami: Thanks.
Sal: *Face palms* We'll give you two some privacy. *Grabs Alfred and turns around so their backs are facing Cam and Darren*.
Cami: *Sarcastically* Wow, thanks for all the privacy.
Darren: What did we do to deserve such great friends?
Sal: *Waves a hand* Yeah, yeah. Just get on with it, alright?
Cami: *Rolls her eyes and continues to have a sappy goodbye with Darren*.
Sal: You two better not be sucking faces when we turn around!
Darren: *Sighs* We're done saying our goodbyes.
Sal & Alfred: *Turn around*.
Alfred: *Starts sobbing again*.
Cami: Dang it, Alfred!! *Bursts into tears* Look what you did to me!
Alfred: It's not my fault!
Cami: Is too!
Alfred & Cami: *Both squeeze Darren into a hug*.
Sal: *Sighs and joins the hug* Fine. One last group hug. But keep your infectious tears away from me.
Cami: *Sniffs* Sal, quit being such a priss.
Sal: Excuse me? Ugh whatever. *Sniffs* What the hell? What is this? *Dabs at her eyes* WHAT THE!? *Begins crying uncontrollably* THIS ISN'T FAIR!
Cami & Alfred: *Sob dramatically*.
Darren: *Pats their backs awkwardly*.
*DARREN'S FLIGHT IS ANNOUNCED ON THE INTERCOM*
Darren: *Sighs sadly* Guys, I've gotta go.
Alfred, Cami, & Sal: *Pull away from the awkward hug*.
Alfred: *Sniffs* I'll miss you, man.
Sal: Oh, quit trying to act macho! *Cries some more*.
Cami: Have a nice flight.
Alfred: Skape us when you get settled in!
Sal: IT'S SKYPE!
Alfred: SKOPE! WHATEVER!
Sal: I am this close-- *holds her pointer finger and thumb just a sliver apart* -- to drop kicking you out of a window.
Darren: Bye guys.
The others: Bye.
Darren: *Leaves to board his flight*.
Cami: So... now what?
Sal: I have no idea.
Alfred: Well that's a first.
Sal & Cami: Shut up.
