Disclaimer: I have nothing to do with Guiding Light. I don't own any of these characters though I'd like to own Shane.
This story takes place at Shane Lewis' house right before prom. He's anxiously awaiting the arrival of his date, Marina Cooper. Shane knew that Marina had agreed to go with him only as friends but he had been in love with her since as long as he could remember. Everyone in his family was waiting in the living room. His father Josh, his mother Reva, and his sister Marah. To them it was just two friends going to a school dance. To Shane it was the biggest night of his life. A few days prior he'd recieved two packages. One from Stanford University for a full athletic scholarship, the other on from a baseball scout. He had to make a decision about where to go. Tonight. Would Marina give him a reason to stay?
The doorbell rang. Shane jumped off the couch to answer it.
Shane: Hello gorgeous. Hey, you're not Marina.
Tammy: Hey yourself cuz. You're not Brad Pitt, but you don't see me looking as disappointed as you do.
Shane: Sorry, I've been waiting all day for her to come. You look gorgeous too.
Tammy: You're only saying that because we're related. That's o.k. I'll take any compliment I can get. So are you going to tell Marina tonight or what?
Shane: I don't have any idea what you're talking about.
Tammy: Yes you do. I know you better than anyone when it comes to that girl. What's it gonna be?
Shane: As cliche'd as it sounds I do intend on telling her tonight.
Tammy: Aww Shane that is so sweet.
Marina sneaks up behind the cousins.
Marina: What's so sweet?
Tammy: Shane just told me that I looked pretty.
Marina: Well it's the truth. Hey Shane. You're looking quite handsome.
Shane: You look handsome too. I mean, hot. I mean... Ugh. I always say the wrong things around you.
Marina: Don't worry. I always know what you really mean.
A limo pulls up to the house. Out climbs Lizzie Spaulding, the daughter of one of the wealthiest man in Springfield. Behind her are two young men, Lizzie's date Jeff and Tammy's (blind) date Andrew.
Lizzie: Hey Shane, Marina, Tammy. This is Jeff and Andrew. Andrew goes to Berisford with Jeff.
Tammy pulls Lizzie to the side.
Tammy: Oh my god. He's so hot. How did you meet them?
Lizzie: At the country club. We have the same tennis instructor.
Tammy: Thank goodness for rich friends otherwise who know's who I'd be stuck with tonight.
Lizzie: I know who I'd like to be stuck with.
Tammy: Lizzie! I thought you were over the crush on Shane.
Lizzie: Old habits die hard I guess. Anyway, Jeff is a good distraction.
Marina: Hey are you two shutting me out of the girl talk?
Tammy: Not in the least. We were saying how hot our dates were.
Marina: I know. We're like one walking Abercrombie ad. Let's take the pics and get to the prom.
Lizzie: I couldn't agree more.
Jeff: So who's your date Shane? She's hot.
Shane: Oh Marina. She's a good friend.
Jeff: Only a good friend?
Andrew: What do you care? She's not your date.
Jeff: Yeah but Liz and I are here only as friends. And if Shane is here with Marina only as friends...I'd be crazy not to persue you know?
