So I just watched this movie twice in three days and I love it! It's been my mom's favorite for a long time and I totally get why she loves it. Here's just a little idea about Guy and Aldys centered around my love of the prom scene.

Enjoy!


Aldys POV

I straightened my glasses and shouldered my backpack before I looked at my reflection in the bathroom mirror. I was trying not to fidget with the chain on my glasses, but it was hard not to. I was so nervous about starting high school. Junior high was a breeze: I floated under the radar, getting good grades and not making any enemies.

But high school is-has-to be different.

"You can do this," I tell myself before walking out the door to face my fate.

Whatever that may be.


Guy POV

I looked at myself in the reflection of my best friend, Tommy's, sunglasses. Light hair and a confident smile that would make me the top of the food chain at South Glenn South. Popularity is not a choice. You have to work for it, and I had built up the perfect reputation with the popular kids in junior high.

High school is going to be perfect.

"What you need," Tommy started, snapping me out of my reverie. "Is a girlfriend."

"What?" I said startled. "Where'd you get that idea?"

"You holed up the entire summer at your house...reading. You need to get laid."

I snorted, but didn't disagree. And pushed open the school doors to face my glorious fate.


Aldys POV

Freshman year was a disaster.

The minute I walked out of that bathroom door on the first day of school, I was pegged as the biggest nerd in school. That first day at lunch, the cool kids-Guys' group-dumped the entire bucket of coleslaw on my head.

Mortified, I ran out of the lunchroom in tears, and ditched the entire rest of school, crying in the school bathroom.

To make matters worse, I developed the biggest crush on Guy Perkins.

Thankfully, by the end of the year I had joined the Denominators (the schools' group of mostly upperclassmen nerds). And as I grew to be an core part of the Denominators, I forgot about my crush.

But I never completely stopped crushing on Guy Perkins.


Guy POV

Freshman year was amazing.

On the first day of school, Tommy took on his mission to get me a girlfriend and by lunch I was making out with a blonde girl named Celia. Don't let the name fool you, she is super hot! The best part about that first day was when that geek: Aldot or something, tried to sit near our table at lunch and we retaliated by dumping the entire bucket of coleslaw on her head.

She looked so embarrassed, I almost went after her, but Celia practically sat on my lap and we got...wrapped up in each other again.

By the end of the year, my friends and I were at the top of South Glenn South's popularity chain. But everyone knew that I was above all of them.

I never fully went through with Tommy's prediction on the first day. Sure Celia had wanted to go that far but I wanted to wait.

My friends would kill me if they knew that I really had a crush on a nerd.


So the first couple chapters are just going to be pretty short, detailing Guy and Aldys's first couple years in high school. Senior year will be pretty in depth, following the basic plot of the movie, albeit with some minor (read, major :-)) changes.
