Riverdale High is still a swirling pot of hormones. Couples who can't keep their hands off of each other....
Boys who like checking out all the ladies....
And teens who can't stand each other because one is out to steal the other's boyfriend.
Sarah Corbin has been snapping at everyone lately. She's in a foul mood, because no matter what she does she can't get Viggo to even bat an eyelash her way. But it seems that guys she's so very not interested in will bat everything at her.
Cameron is also in a mood, but not over Sarah. That girl is the furthest thing from her mind. She's under so much pressure from her parents, Viggo's parents, and just trying to hold everything together.
Not to mention making sure that she aces her final exams so that she can pass to the eleventh grade. So when Viggo comes to her with more photos and print out info. on adoptive couples, she snaps.
And he's tired of the outbursts. Maybe he can't understand fully where she's coming from. She is the one carrying the baby. But after talking with his folks he's come to realize that putting the baby up for adoption is the best thing to do.
Of course Cameron thinks he's crazy. She also believe that the boy has been hit one too many times in the head with a soccer ball.
He sighs, knowing he shouldn't be so hard on her, he loves her after all. And, he did get Cameron in this situation in the first place. "Look, I maybe pro adoption, but I'm still with you 100%. No matter what you decide to do." he tells her.
This brings tears to Cameron's eyes and she fights to hold them back. She's so sick of crying, she's been crying since that night, and haven't stopped yet. He pulls her into a hug, smoothing down the top of her hair. Whispering that everything will be all right, it will all work out in the end. (Don't mind the wedding ring. For some reason inTeen sets my pregnant teens to married, hence the ring. It will be gone once she gives birth.)
Back in the "real" world of high school Cameron puts on her normal face when Sarah approaches. She hates that fact that Viggo is still hanging out with the girl. So in true Cameron fashion she hops into her boyfriend's arms and covers his neck in kisses.
Of course he's totally oblivious to the motives of her actions, he just likes the attention. Sarah rolls her eyes and continues to the vending machines.
She couldn't have timed it better if she planned. But Sarah accidentally stumbled upon Eddie's and Brooke's conversation, which involves Cameron of all people.
"Yeah, she totally went to the Doctor and everything. You know she's due in like four months. I can't believe she would go and do something so stupid." Brooke snips.
Sarah's mouth drops open, but she quickly recovers. She can't believe, Cameron is pregnant. But that would totally explain that ugly tent of a dress she's been wearing. Her eyes narrow and Sarah marches her way back over to Cameron.
"Oh, my, God! You have some nerve don't you! How could you do this to Viggo? You're a selfish bitch!" Sarah spit out.
Cameron is taken aback for a moment then she realizes Brooke must have been running her mouth. She'll deal with her later. "It's non of your business, Sarah. And I didn't do anything to Viggo. Why don't you go flutter of and make puppy dog eyes at someone else."
"Oh, I see. You did this to keep Viggo, huh? Worried that he'll dump your ass for me." Sarah smiles.
Cameron wants to slap that smirk off the girl's face, but in her condition she really doesn't need to be fighting. "Glad to see that you still think the world revolves around you. You miss judge your importance to me, to Viggo, to anyone. You're just a waste of space, and the only thing bigger than your ego is your head."
Sarah laughs, though the big head comment did sting. "Well, we'll see who Viggo comes running too. At least I'm not the one who will get fat and bloated and covered in stretch marks."
That last remark is the last straw and Cameron walks off to the bathroom. That one really stung. Viggo only heard the tail end of the fight, and is not cool with what Sarah said to his girl.
But Suni is the only one who steps to her. "Look, you used to be cool and all. But if you ever say anything to Cameron like that again you'll regret it. Do you hear me?" She doesn't wait for the girl to respond she only turns to head for the bathroom.
"Cameron, are you okay?" Suni asks through the closed stall door.
Cameron stands on the other side trying to fight back the tears. Was she okay? To a point one could say yes, but Sarah hit on one of her biggest fears.
What if Viggo did leave her because she was fat and ugly now. Granted, he tells her she's never looked prettier, she glows even. But deep down she knows that he can leave her. To a very willing and waiting whore named Sarah Corbin.
Brooke fixes her hair in the mirror. "I don't see what the big deal is anyway. I mean, everyone will know come next year. You're going to be as big as a house. No more hiding the bump."
Cameron comes out to wash her hands. "Yeah, but it's up to me to tell people, not you. You shouldn't be blabbing your mouth in school about me, Brooke."
The blonde only snickers and rolls her eyes.
Suni gets in her way. "That was really no cool, Brooke. And you know it."
Brooke balls her hands at her sides. "Whatever. I mean really, if Cameron learned to keep her legs closes she wouldn't be in the situation that she's in now."
Cameron gasps.
Suni gets into Brooke's personal space, glaring down at her.
She pushes past the girl. "I don't have time for this, or for you. I'm out of here."
Suni watches her go.
Cameron's ready to cry again and Suni pulls her into a hug. "Don't listen to her. "Little Miss. I Only Give Hand jobs Cause I Don't Want to Have Sex," knows nothing."
Cameron smiles a little at this. Suni hugs her tighter. "I'm always here for you no matter what."

Ack, sorry for leaving this on a not so happy note, but this is how the school played out. When I say Brooke talking to Eddie about the doctor's office I figured that she was telling him about Cameron. And guess who was standing there? Yup, Sarah! So of course she had to go and confront Cameron, and of course she felt that Cameron only got pregnant to keep Viggo.
And with this update, I am officially done with my spring rotation. There will be no prom because I only had one senior, and no graduation since I demolished the high school before I realized I didn't take the pics of Keegan graduating. Oh, well. But he did graduate with an A+. He had I think three scholarships, the one for having a job, the one for logic, and the other for for cleaning or fitness I think. He will be attended the University of Riverdale this fall.
Wow, I'm glad you kept it realistic with the girls and their drama. Of course some girls will look down on Brooke, but Brooke isn't the one with the baby and Sarah thinking that Cameron trapped Viggo and Suni defending her friend. I can't wait to see the males and what they think of everything as well as how Cameron's pregnancy will affect the other couples. Will Edward stop pressuring Brooke now that his buddy is going to be a dad, will Suni decide that motherhood is for her. Will parents be more protective of their kids and who they are allowed to hang out with?
ReplyDeleteI read over the entry when Cameron first found out and the comments for that and how simmers differ based on their life experiences. Like this, a pregnancy in my high school was unheard of. I know that it was mostly because of the type of high school I went to (it was a fine arts high school-think FAME). Students there had bigger goals than just graduating or college, they were trying to become stars and babies don't exactly make things easier. Heck, there was very little dating going on either :P
At least Sarah is willing to meet new people :P There's hope for her yet.
Apple Valley, I'm glad you liked the update. Like I said, it basically wrote itself and I did draw a bit on my high days when one of my BFF's got pregnant. How our so called friends had treated her and how I treated her. I was protective, like Suni.
ReplyDeleteIt's only natural that Sarah would try to make this all about her. And Brooke, sometimes friendship chages when something like this happens.
Other than their inner circle of friends and some enimies only know out the pregnancy since Cameron has kept this a secret, so not many parents know what's going on.
Edward is another story all to himself. LOL
Yeah, I remember when I first saw a pregnant girl in my high school, my mouth almost fell open. Outside of the television shows like Degrassi Jr. High, it never dawned on me that teens actually had sex. ROFL Yes, I was a very sheltered child.
Weird about the wedding ring and your pregnant teens! I had to go back and look at my pics of Abigail to see if she had the same thing. There aren't many pics where I can clearly see her hands but I don't think she did! She's still my only teen pregnancy (unless you count Victoria, who was 19 when she got pregnant).
ReplyDeleteSarah's still into Viggo, I see! What a little snot she is! I think this is pretty realistic for the age they're at though, unfortunately. Girls are so catty as teens (and even when they're older sometimes!) I've got to feel for Cameron here. She's the talk of the school and it's really only her and Viggo's business.
I went to a Catholic girls' school and while I was there, we had three girls in my grade get pregnant. One miscarried but of the other two, we never once saw them at school once they were showing. I don't know if they were "asked to leave" (our school's euphemism for expulsion) or if they just chose to leave.
Carla, I know that ring is so strange. It just popped up when she got pregnant. With Vanya that did not happen, so I don't know why it's doing it now. I even checked in SimPE and she's not flaged as married. Strange.
ReplyDeleteYes, Sarah is very much still into Viggo. It's bad too, because when I see her or play her family I'm like rolling my eyes at her all the time. LOL I'm really starting to not like her.
I know what you mean, in high school I only had three female friends, I couldn't stand all the drama. And yes, Cameron has to deal with all of this ontop of might having to put the baby up for adoption. Brooke really should learn to keep her mouth shut. If it weren't for her no one would have found out.
That sucks what happened at your school. But I guess the nuns didn't want to get any ideas into the other girls heads about getting knocked up. But you can't keep thinks like this a secret, they do happen. We don't like in a perfect world.
I have a weird thing happening with wedding rings in my game. A couple of people who are not married have started wearing one. Audrey's boyfriend Sinjin was the first one, which is why I had to then invent a dead wife for him after he suddenly showed up with a wedding ring. Now Nancy Crawford is the second Sim this has happened to. Neither are flagged as being married in SimPE and I can't find a Sim in their relationship panel that they think they're married to, but yet both are wearing wedding rings even though the people they're in relationships with aren't. I would suspect maybe they think they're married to each other, lol, except that Nancy's only just recently happened and Sinjin's has been on since I started playing him months ago.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, lots of drama! Brooke shouldn't be going around telling everyone else Cameron's news and should let Cameron decide when and who she tells.
Shana, that's so strange. So far for me it's only been Cameron. But do you think we are bothing having some kind of hack conflect going on? I have no idea. *sigh*
ReplyDeleteBrooke reminds me of one of my old friends way back when, she used to tell everyone's business. I wasn't to stuff a sock on her mouth. I never shared anything with her that was of any real value. LOL
I'm not sure. I know I didn't start having these weird things happening until I installed ACR 2, but I haven't found anyone else on the ACR forum mentioning anything like this happening, so I can't say that it's related. I did, however, manage to fix my problems with Sinjin and Nancy. In SimPE when you open up the Neighborhood Browser, on the left side in the resource tree there's one branch that says Sim Relations. So I clicked on that and was able to see a list of every Sim in the hood and how they're connected to everyone else. I had to rearrange the list by Name because it defaults to a different organization when it first opens, then I found Nancy and Sinjin in the list and checked their relationship to everyone else that was listed. I found that Nancy thought she was married to herself and Sinjin thought he was engaged to Marcus Craig AND Baine Austin, while also being married to Tammie Austin at the same time. :\ I checked an old thread on More Awesome Than You and Pescado had told someone else that it's safe to uncheck the engagement and marriage boxes in SimPE, so I did that, committed the changes and saved. Sinjin is still wearing his wedding band (I'm thinking it might go away if I moved him out of his house and then back in, since that seems to make engagement/wedding rings reset) but he can now propose engagement to Audrey, which he couldn't do before because apparently he thought he was already engaged and married to different people. I guess he's been busy behind my back! ;)
ReplyDeleteSo I don't know if your ring problem is related to mine or if it's just because Cameron is pregnant, but if her ring is still there after she gives birth, check her relationship to all the other Sims in the hood through SimPE and see if she thinks she's married to any of them. :)
Shana, Thanks a bunch! I did look at her relationships but I only checked the sims that I knew she knew. I'll open up PE again before I load up the game and go through all of them and see what I find. Because as of right now, Viggo is unable to propose to her either. Not that he would, but I had noticed the option is not gone. Which I found strange like the ring. Thanks again for the heads up!!!!
ReplyDeleteI read this like I was watching a movie! I enjoyed it very much!
ReplyDeleteI just love how Suni was so protective of Cameron.
The only pregnant teen in my hood, Erline, never got a ring. That's so weird! I just remember she couldn't go to classes at the school, with Simlogical's class controller-thingy. Because she was technically an Adult.
Shimmington, I'm glad you were so into the update!
ReplyDeleteSuni is my girl! Eventhough she and Cameron have had their ups and downs, they are think as theives.
Man, I looked in PE and checked every sim in the hood and she has no romantic relationships with them other than Viggo, so I have no idea why she has a ring. *sigh* I'll have to see what will happened after she gives birth.
