DRIVE ME CRAZY: My FanFiction: Chase Hammond and Nicole Merris: The Parents and the Kids

Nicole: Sure. You two think about here and uh, we'll go think about it in the tree house.

(Scene: Bowling Alley)

Chase: You do realize what this means right?

Nicole: Sure, do you?

Chase: It's not that hard to understand. But what do we do now? They are obviously in love, they have to be to… move in together. So do we just ignore out feelings and move in with them? Do we ignore our feelings and go off to college and forget each other? What do we do?

Nicole: (screaming) I don't know!

(A few people in near-by lanes look over and Nicole blushes.)

Chase: (hugs Nicole) I'm sorry. It's just so complicated.

Nicole: You think I don't know this? (Steps back from Chase's embrace) I have always loved you. But our parents… what do we do now?

Chase: We have to talk to them.

Nicole: Why? Can't we just pretend they are still just neighbors and get on with our lives?

Chase: No. We can't. We have to figure this out. Somehow I think we will. (Hugs Nicole)

(Scene: Nicole and Janet Merris's Living Room)

Janet: (Sitting next to Roger Hammond) What did you kids want to tell us?

Chase: (puts his hand on Nicole's knee) We are in love.

Nicole: (gives Chase a look and stands up) No! I mean… we are like… going out. But love… I don't…

Chase: (stands up and looks at Nicole) But I thought you said…

Nicole: Things change.

Chase: Like what? What changed from then to now? You just suddenly stop loving me?

Nicole: No. Yes. I don't know. But my Mom and Dad…

Chase: But I thought you guys worked that out.

Nicole: That doesn't change the past of marriage. (Runs out of the room almost in tears)

Chase: (Looks at adults) WHAT? (Runs out to chase after Nicole)

Janet: Well, that certainly went well.

Roger: Yeah, I'll say.
