"John, you look really into the U.S. History essay." Alex told Munch.
"They ask our opinion on what we think our country could have done to beat Germany in World War II." Munch told her.
"So you're telling one of your conspiracy theories." Alex smiled.
"You know way too well." Munch smiled as he kissed her.
"Well, we've been dating since freshmen year." Alex reminded him.
"Yeah, when I asked you to homecoming." Munch said.
"I'm glad you had the balls to do so." Alex laughed.
Munch also laughed. "Oh I love you."
"I love you too. Geez, when we did start saying that?" Alex asked.
"Sophomore year homecoming. During the last slow dance. I was first to say it." Munch said.
"I remember now!" Alex said.
"Alex! Are you studying?" her mom yelled.
"Yes, we're studying!" Alex yelled back.
"Gosh, my mom thinks instead of studying we're…" Alex started not wanting to finish.
Munch held Alex's hand. "I know what you're trying to say. I know Fin and Melinda already took that step. But I don't think Elliot and Olivia took it yet. When we're ready."
"Thanks Munch. You get how we're pressured nowadays to do stuff. You want to wait until we're both ready. That's another reason why I love you." Alex said as she kissed him.
Meanwhile, another couple was doing homework together.
"El, you don't even need my help with Physics anymore." Olivia said.
"Well, you were a good tutor." Elliot smiled.
It had been a few months since Elliot and Olivia began dating.
"I'm so glad it's almost summer." Olivia said.
"I know me too." Elliot smiled.
"What are you smiling about?" Olivia asked.
"Well, it's been about 4 months since we started dating." Elliot said as he pulled out a rose he had been hiding.
"Elliot." She said as she took the rose.
"I love you Olivia." He said.
Olivia looked at him. That was the first he said that to her. She was speechless.
"Elliot…" She started.
It took her a few moments, but she finally said.
"I love you too."
Elliot smiled and kissed her. Olivia returned the kiss.
And while this was going on, Casey and Huang were sitting in a coffee shop.
"Alright George, why are you so anxious?" Casey asked.
"I want you to meet someone." Huang said.
"This better not be a blind date." Casey said.
"Not for you, for me." Huang said.
"Oh." Casey said. It had been a few months since Huang confessed to Casey. She was the only person that knew.
"There he is." Huang smiled.
"Hey George." The boy said.
"Aaron, I like you to meet Casey." Huang said.
"Hey Aaron, it's nice to meet you." Casey smiled.
"Casey is the only person that knows about me. She's my best friend." Huang said.
"I see." Aaron said.
"So how long have you two been going out?" Casey asked.
"A couple of days." Aaron said.
"Aw, I can see this is a good thing. You seem like a great guy Aaron. Perfect for George." Casey said.
"Oh shit." Huang said.
"What?" Casey and Aaron asked.
"Douche bags from school." Huang said.
Casey and Aaron looked to see who just came in. There stood Dean, Dani, Kathy, Trevor, and Kim.
"Maybe they won't notice us." Casey said.
"Nope they saw us." Huang said.
"Shit." Casey said.
"Novak, Huang, who's the guy with you?" Kim asked as the group made their way over.
"I'm Aaron." Aaron said.
"You're cute." Kim smiled.
Huang sent a text to Casey.
They can't know!
"Uhhh." Aaron said.
What should we do so Kim doesn't hook up with him?-Casey
"What?" Kim asked.
Huang replied. Pretend you're dating him.
What?-Casey
Just do it!
"What he means to say is," Casey paused as she looked at Huang, "is that we're dating!"
"Oh really? Doesn't seem that way." Kim said.
"We are!" Casey said as she hugged Aaron. He got what was going on and played along.
"What no kiss?" Kim asked.
"We only started going out a couple of days ago!" Casey said.
"Oh well." Kim said as she and the rest of the group walked away.
"That was close." Casey said as she released her arms from Aaron.
"Yeah." Huang said.
"Wait, so when those people come around I have to pretend like I'm dating Casey?" Aaron asked.
"Yes, I'm sorry." Huang said.
"Yeah, it's just if they find out George's high school life will be hell." Casey said.
"Ok then." Aaron said.
Meanwhile with Fin and Melinda.
"Fin!" Melinda yelled as Fin pulled into her driveway.
"Melinda, what is it?" Fin asked as he ran up to her.
"Come inside." Melinda said as she grabbed his hand.
They ran up to her room. Melinda grabbed a letter and held it up.
"I got into med camp!" Melinda exclaimed.
"That's great!" Fin smiled as he kissed her.
"Yep, I leave halfway through June and get back at the end of July!" Melinda said.
"How many weeks is that?" Fin asked.
"6 weeks." Melinda said.
"Woah." Fin said.
"What?" Melinda asked.
"It's a long time for us to be apart." Fin asked.
"Fin, this is a once in a lifetime chance." Melinda told him.
"I know, I'm just going to miss you." Fin told her.
"Me too." Melinda said as she kissed him.
"I am happy for you." Fin smiled.
Melinda smiled back.
"I love you." She said.
"I love you too." Fin told her as he kissed her back.
