Set-Miley's house
Doorbell rings.
Robbie Ray answers it.
Oliver: Hi, Mr. Stewart.
Robbie Ray: Hey, Oliver. Come on in.
Oliver walks in and Robbie Ray closes door.
Robbie Ray: What can I help you with?
Oliver: Actually, I'm just here for a school project I'm doing with Miley.
Miley comes down the stairs.
Miley: Hey, Oliver.
Robbie Ray: Well, you two have fun. I'm going to practice my new song.
Knocking on door.
Robbie Ray: Or I could answer the door.
Robbie Ray opens door and Lilly walks in.
Lilly sees Oliver and glares at him.
Oliver glares back.
Robbie Ray (uneasily): You two all right?
Oliver: Fine.
Lilly: Never been better.
Robbie Ray: Okay. See you.
Robbie Ray leaves.
Miley: Why don't we all sit down?
Lilly and Oliver sit down, each on one side of Miley.
Miley: So, what book do you guys want to do?
Simultaneously-
Oliver: Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde
Lilly: The Grapes of Wrath.
Miley: Okay. What's your second choice?
Simultaneously-
Oliver: A Tale of Two Cities
Lilly: Pride and Prejudice.
Miley: You know what? I'm a little thirsty. You want something?
Simultaneously-
Oliver: Sprite
Lilly: Dr. Pepper.
Miley: Can you two agree on anything?
Simultaneously-
Oliver: Yes
Lilly: No.
Miley: I have had enough! Will you two just say you're sorry?
Lilly: This isn't my fault. He ruined my date. Why should I have to apologize?
Oliver: If anyone should say that they're sorry, you should be the one. You made too big
a deal out of a stupid little thing!
Lilly and Oliver stand.
Lilly: Little thing? Little thing?! You've destroyed my love life! And my date!
Oliver: It's not like I had a good time either!
Lilly steps closer.
Lilly: Date spoiler!
Oliver steps closer.
Oliver: Overreactor!
Lilly gets closer.
Lilly: Party pooper!
Oliver gets even more close.
Oliver: Drama queen!
Lilly and Oliver suddenly kiss on impulse.
Miley's mouth drops open.
Lilly and Oliver stop kissing and look at each other in shock.
Miley faints.
Lilly and Oliver look at Miley, look at each other, and run out separate doors.
The next day. . .
Set-Miley's porch.
Robbie Ray is playing, "If We Were a Movie" on his guitar.
Oliver comes up behind him.
Oliver: Mr. Stewart? Could I talk to you about something?
Robbie Ray: Sure, Oliver. What's on your mind?
Oliver: Well, you may have noticed yesterday that things aren't going so well between
me and Lilly.
Robbie Ray: I may have noticed. What happened?
Oliver: I ruined a date she had with this new guy, Blake, and she got really mad at me.
Then I got mad at her for overreacting, and we started fighting all the time. Then
yesterday happened.
Robbie Ray (exasperated): Oliver, what did you do this time?
Oliver (sheepishly): I . . . kissed her.
Robbie Ray (disbelieving): You kissed her?
Oliver: Yeah, and now she won't talk to me! It's as if I don't even exist! And she doen't
even know that I ruined the date on purpose!
Robbie Ray: Wait a second. You did it on purpose?
Oliver: I was jealous!
Robbie Ray: Oliver, you've got to tell her how you feel about her.
Oliver: What?! Are you crazy? That would totally ruin everything!
Robbie Ray: Oliver, do you like Lilly?
Oliver: Yes.
Robbie Ray: How much?
Oliver: I would die for her.
Robbie Ray: Then you've got to take that risk. You've got to tell her the truth.
