I know, my 90210 story isn't complete but meh.
It is really sad that I am writing this considering that I am 17, but I had the idea when I caught the show once or twice so... It is a teen but is verging on mature for what it deals with. It centres around Cece because I think she needs to be explored in a way that was started during Add It Up.
She may seem OOC but work with it?

"I need some sleep
It can't go on like this"

Cece tossed and turned. The pillow had been turned over and over and over and over... She had tried moving the covers on, off, around, upside down. Nothing was working. Maybe if she just closed her eyes and thought happy thoughts? She sat up abruptly. Who was she kidding? She couldn't conjure up any happy thoughts right now.

Maybe if she rang Rocky and asked her to come over? Would that help? Would Rocky even pick up? She glanced at her clock to see it reading 4am. Maybe she shouldn't disturb Rocky after all. But what else could she do.

Standing up, Cece walked over to her desk and found her laptop. The light of her screen flickered on as she opened the lid.

Windows resuming, it kept flashing up to her. It wasn't resuming quick enough for her liking. Why was this thing always so blooming slow? It might have something to do with her mother getting it from the police evidence box auction that her job allowed her to buy things from. Of course Cece wasn't to get the newest laptop, unlike Flynn who got his new game console.

Eventually, the screen changed to her background, of her and Rock smiling, and she opened the web browser. Google was typed into the address bar and she started her search;"How to sleep?".

A thousand links popped up and Cece clicked on the first one. She skim read all about how it meant something was on her mind. She was no academic genius, but even she already knew that. Frustratedly she backspaced to re-search.

After countless failures, Cece eventually found one semi-helfpful sight that listed ways to ease the thought at night. It suggested she find a place that she felt truly comfortable in to sleep. What is the worst that could happen?

She closed the lid to her laptop, picked up her duvet and walked over to the closet. She opened it, discarded some shoes onto her bedroom floor and settled down beneath the sparkly, fashionable dresses and clothes that she owned. She rested her back against the wall and pulled her duvet around her, as if it was cuddling her.

Cece felt herself start to drift. Maybe the website did know what it was on about.

Cece was awoken by her mother.

"What are you doing in the closet? And why were you screaming?" She was asking irritatedly as she stood in her nightwear looking at her daughter.

"Maybe she was scared of the monsters in there and thought she should confront them." Flynn chipped and both mother and son laughed at his joke. Cece's own cheeks burned and a slight sadness came over her – were they really unconcerned?

"Anyway, I need you to take Flynn to school." With that, her mum left to get dressed for work.

Cece looked over to her little brother who was already dressed and looking at her expectantly. She sighed, before pulling herself up and moving out of the closet.

She was exhausted. She'd only gotten an hour and half of sleep. It was becoming too much for her, these sleepless nights. It had been about a week, and last night was the first time she'd even drifted. She knew she looked a sight, but couldn't find herself to care as she quickly got dressed – not even bothering to brush her hair.

"Cece, you look awful!" Rocky exclaimed as she saw her walking into school.

"Thanks Rocky! I can always count on you to make me feel better." Cece told her sarcastically as she walked over to her locker.

"Did you have another movie-marathon night?"

"No." She replied bluntly. She didn't really want to deal with her best friend at this point.

"Hey, babe!" Cece heard behind and knew that she had just gotten her wish.

She turned around holding the textbooks for her next two lessons just to see Rocky and her boyfriend, David kissing. It sickened her slightly.

"I've got a lesson to get to..." She called whilst she walked away from the two love-birds and to maths. Kill her.

"Cecelia Jones. You understand why you are here, yes?"

"I'm really sorry I fell asleep in maths, Miss Winslow." Cece tried but she could see the Vice Principal was having none of it.

"You have two weeks of detention and I am ringing your mother. No matter how boring you think a class is, you Are not allowed to just sleep in it." She was annoyed, anybody could see that.

"Yes, ma'am. It wasn't that I was sleeping because it was bored but because I am really tired. I've been having trouble sleeping because-"

"It doesn't matter. I have things to do, so if you could just leave and close the door on your way out."

With that Cece left, feeling more tired than before. Why did everything take such effort? And why was nobody willing to listen?

If they thought she was so ready to do things, then she would! She bitterly walked out of school and home, even though she knew she'd be in a vast amount of trouble. She didn't care though. All she wanted to do was head home to sleep in her closet and actually catch up on her life. She didn't feel like life was going on, yet apparently it was.

"I'm in too deep
And the wheels keep spinning 'round"
