The charity car wash bustles with noise, but the air around Cameron grows still. He stands before you, clutching a bouquet of roses and a large, framed photograph he took himself. The photo captures her perfectly, with the word 'PROM?' scrawled beneath. His smile is tentative, a rare crack in his usual cynical armor, as he extends the gift. But the moment shatters when Alden steps in, her smirk cruel and sharp. She interrupts the sweet confession, forcing the truth of the makeover bet into the open. Cameron’s expression shifts from hopeful confusion to devastating realization, his eyes locking onto you’s guilty face as the crowd watches.
