The next day I wake up to the house being pin quiet. How strange? After changing into a white crop top and some pink jean shorts, I head downstairs to we're the first usually meet up. I see all three of them sitting on the coach with Molly looking over at them angrily. "Great Adriana, you finally came." She says in a monotone voice pointing for we to sit down. "What's going on?" I question looking at her then back to the girls but they look just as clueless as me. "This is not acceptable. Do you know how lucky you are to be here?" Molly said and we begin getting even more lost. "Did we order too much room service? You said it was complimentary." Poppy says but Molly shakes her head, "Dice got back to his room this morning to find his camera bags full of seafood. His lenses are ruined. And someone wrote the word 'creep' in pink zinc on the word creep." At that Summer chuckles and we all face her. Please don't say she did it.
"What it wasn't me!" Summer says and I believe her. She would never do something this crazy and not take the blame especially if it is one of her friends that can get hurt in the end. The begin to go back and forth as all the girls team up against Summer and I sit there silently, contemplating what I should do. Obviously, I need to stand up for her, "Guys I don't think Summer did it. She is telling the truth." "Thank you!" Summer says pointing at me but Wren rolls her eyes, "So what? You with one of us did it. Maybe you helped her with it huh?" She says and I look at her in shock. What is the bitch on. "I didn't do it! What is wrong with you!" I say in an upset tone as I stand up, wanting to leave this damn room. 
Molly looked at us but she seemed to have made her decision before confronting us. "Summer I took a risk with you. I'm calling your mom." "What no! But he deserves it for what he did the Bodhi and Adriana!" "What did he do?" "Well he said something... problematic." "Pack your bags, your leaving." Molly says and Summer and I both let out a no. "Ma'am she said she didn't do it so how can you kick her out just like that with no proof." I say but Molly just gets more annoyed, "Adriana you say one more word about this and your off the photo shoot too. Summer pack your bags and girls get ready." With one last apologetic glance I walk up to my room to change into the bathing suit for the photo shoot.
I feel really bad for summer but I need the money. My fathers been texting me non stop for me to send him some since a couple days but todays the final day of the shoot so I should get my pay check soon. Fuck, I'm such a shit friend. When I walk out into the living room, I see Summer and the rest of the girls. Summer seems to be bickering with them as they all teamed up on her. I begin to try and step in but Summer pushes me onto the floor. "Zip it Adriana! Your supposed to be my best friend yet you don't even stand up to me! What the hell!" She screams and I can feel my tears begin to build up, "Summer-" "No Adriana! I don't want to here it! Why does this photoshoot mean more to know then our friendship, Huh! Do you want more money or followers or something! You know the guy is a creep and someone is framing me yet you would do anything." She says as I stay on the floor in shock as tears come down my face, "Summer please, I-I sorry. You just don't understand." "No you don't understand. Your being a terrible friend right now." She says before storming out of the house with he bags as I'm in shock with tears still heavily flowing down my face.
The other girls, mostly Poppy, tried to comfort me but I was destroyed. My best friend, our 16 almost 17 years worth of friendship, gone... Was it worth it. No. I would do anything to change the outcome. I-I would take the beating from my father for this, but it's too late now. 
We then went back out for the rest of the photo shoot and the girls went to take there surfing shots while I still had a few more bikini shots. "Adriana. We got enough of your strength face siren eyes. Look more happy and fun." Dice said for like the tenth time after I glanced at the ocean. "When am I going to take my surfing shots?" I question and he just sighs, "A few more okay? Then you can go out to surf. People will buy these photos more then your surfing ones. It's about supply and demand sweetheart." He says and I basically gag in my mouth but I suck it up. 
Finally after like an hour later, I get some waves with the girls and summer was starting to feel like it should. Relaxing and fun, although once and a while someone would yell at us to do that trick again or smile more but I can deal with it because I'm doing something I love.
After the photo shoot we all go to the beach to take photos to post on our socials because it was one of the stupid mandatory requirements. Wren pulled me and the girls for a photo to post, Poppy and Bodhi posted similar photos as well but I didn't want Summer to feel left out so I decided to post photos of there Beach, a photo in me in one of their bathing suits, it was probably the bikini that I had the most coverage in, and a photo that all five of us girls at the beginning of the weekend.
After that we all went home and I was glade this trip came to an end. I sent my father 3/4s of the pay check and kept the rest hidden from him. I didn't even get a thank you but at least I didn't get a bitchy remark. With that I took a long bus ride home and basically napped the whole way there.
