Narrator's POV
Keifer wakes up, in his bed with a massive head ache.
"Ugh..." he expressed.
"Goodmorning.." mackie says, leaning on the door way.
Keifer looks at him, confused.
"Do you remember anything from last night?" Mackie questions with a smirk.
Keifer shakes his head, still confused.
"Give him a break." Francis says entering with Tylenol and a cup of water.
"Here." Francis passes it on to Mackie.
mackie grabs the water and Tylenol, walks towards Keifer and sits on the bed, facing him.
"Here." Mackie says, offering the Tylenol to him.
Keifer grabs the medicine, and takes one out.
He puts it in his mouth, mackie gives him the water.
"Thanks.." keifer says quietly.
"No problem." Mackie says
"You're welcome." Francis smiles.
"Listen.. I don't want you guys to think we're okay now." Keifer starts.
"We'll talk later, you better dress up. And act like you're okay." Francis says, in a serious tone.
"Why?" Keifer asks.
"Mr. Nelson called a meeting, everyone needs to go." Mackie says getting up, "let's go..." Mackie offers his hand for Keifer to grab, to help him stand up.
Keifer looks at his hand, then at Mackie's face.
Then sighs..
"Fine." Keifer says taking his hand.
Mackie grins with Keifer's decision and pulls him up.
----------------------------
Keifer and the group walk into the main building,
"hey Keifer," Lucas says standing by Ashlee
"Hi," Keifer smiles
"You guys are friends now?" Francis asked raising his eyebrows.
"More like drinking buddies.." Keifer smirks.
Keifer walks forward and bumps onto Selina.
"whoops, sorry Selina." Keifer says rubbing the back of his head.
"I- uh... I'm sorry.." Selina says running away, shyly.
Selina stands by herself near a window, she looks at Keifer who doesn't remember anything from last night.
Mackie catches her staring, the memories from last night come flooding in. He glares at her which makes her look away.
"What's wrong?" Francis asks.
"No.. nothing, just saw something I didn't like," Mackie replies
Nelson arrives with a stern face.
"Due to recent events, the show that was supposed to air will be postponed. In the meantime, you all will be held under our care, the 2-year contract still stands but you all will work on getting to know each other and yourselves. Know, that I do not blame anyone for recent incidents. We still have time to postpone the show, I want all of you to work with your other contestants to improve your relationships. For the next two months, you will not get any challenges, any work will be stopped. I hope you all will be able to do as asked, work on yourselves and your relationships. That is all for today, I will keep in touch." Nelson smiled.
Nelson waves goodbye to everyone,
Lucas passes by the group before walking, he puts his hand on Mackie's shoulder
"Tell him." he whispers to Mackie.
Mackie was shocked that Lucas knew about what happened, he could have sworn that he was asleep.
Lucas leaves the building and Mackie runs after him.
"Wait! You knew? You saw?" Mackie asks angrily.
"Well.. I was a little disoriented... but yes I did." Lucas smiles, aggravating Mackie more.
"So why didn't you stop him!?" Mackie yells.
"I woke up when he had her against the wall, I didn't want to disturb them.." Lucas shrugged.
"Besides why are you blaming me for this?" Lucas says, "shouldn't you blame the girl who lied?" Lucas asks.
"What are you talking about?" Keifer says overhearing their conversation.
Francis and Keifer were out of the building, followed by Selina.
"Keifer.." mackie says.
"Tell him already!" Lucas laughs.
"Tell me what?"
Mackie couldn't say anything,
He felt so angry with Keifer lately, he didn't want to feel that anymore.. He just wanted their relationship to be okay.. The news of him making out with Selina, will rock it.. He didn't want to add anymore problems for him..
"Oh for gods sake!" Lucas exclaimed, "you made out with Selina last night! Thinking she was Mackie! And guess what? she went along with it and lied to you!" Lucas screams pointing at Selina.
Mackie looked shocked, keifer looked at him waiting for confirmation.
Mackie nods,
Keifer's face showed nothing but anger, he turned around to face Selina.
"Are you kidding me?" Keifer scoffs.
"I'm.. sorry... I just.." Selina says tearing up a bit.
"You're sorry????" Keifer screams.
All the other contestants come out, overhearing their fight.
They gathered a crowd,
"Keif.. not here.." mackie says, pulling Keifer's arm.
Keifer looks back at Mackie, "you saw?..." keifer cries.
Mackie nods,
"I'm sorry.." Keifer cries.
Mackie shakes his head, "no.. don't worry.. it's okay."
Keifer smiles at Mackie a little, then turns to Selina.
"Follow us." He says, walks forward towards their house, "you too, Lucas." Keifer says as he passes by him.
At the house.
Selina stands at the door way,
"Explain." Keifer says bluntly.
Selina tears up, not knowing what to say..
"I'll explain for her," Lucas says, "she likes you sooo much, that she couldn't help it." Lucas turns to Selina, "Join the club!" Lucas says laughing.
"Lucas. Shut up." Mackie says shaking his head.
"You like me? Are you sure? It didn't seem that way when you lied about Mackie. And it sure didn't seem that way if you lied last night too." Keifer shouts.
"I-I... I'm sorry.." Selina whimpers, wiping tears from her cheeks.
"STOP CRYING!" Keifer screams, making everyone in the room jump.
"Keif.." Francis intervenes.
"You Don't get to cry. You deliberately did what you did. You lied to me, knowing what you were doing.." keifer says, calmed down.
"IM SORRY! IM SORRY! YOU KEPT SAYING YOU LOVE MACKIE, IT HURT! I WILL NEVER BE MACKIE. IT WAS WRONG, I KNOW. YOU THOUGHT I WAS MACKIE AND KEPT ASKING IF MACKIE LOVES YOU BACK. I DON'T KNOW IF HE DOES, BUT I DO! SO I ANSWERED. And you kissed me.. IM sorry!" Selina yells and cries.
Everyone was shell shocked at Selina shouting and her answer,
Keifer scoffs and shakes his head.
"Get out." Keifer says.
"Keifer...." Selina begs..
"GET OUT SELINA." Keifer yells loudly,
Selina cries harder, staying on the same spot..
"Just leave Selina." Mackie says calmly.
Selina leaves, Francis goes after her to make sure she was okay,
Leaving Keifer, Mackie and Lucas in the house.
