Chapter 3
(Kirsten, Sandy, Julie, & Caleb finish dinner)
Sandy began, "So it was nice having dinner with you, and Caleb I expect you to come by my office tomorrow so we can finish up some paperwork, alright"
"Well thank you for joining us" Julie said with a fake smile
"Anytime" Replied Kirsten.
……………..(Sandy and Kirsten walk out to the car)
"Well that was interesting" said Kirsten sarcastically.
"Yea, I was going to tell you, but I just didn't know how"
"That's ok Sandy, it's my fathers problem, not mine"
"Yea"
They got in the car and had an unusually quiet car ride back home.

(Ryan and Lindsay finish the movie)
"So…" Ryan began, "What do you want to do"
"I don't know" Lindsay replied
"Well do you want to get something to eat, and talk or…"
"I guess, I'm not sure though its kind of late," she sighed, "Well do you want a soda or something?"
"Yea that could be great"
………………..(They are in the kitchen drinking their sodas)
"So what's been going on with you lately" Ryan questioned
"Not much just school and stuff, you"
"Yea, school too, and of course hanging out with you and seth, I sometimes wonder what I would be doing not if I was still in chino, I probably would be in Jail by now"
Lindsay quickly answered "Yea" and then looked down at her soda
"Well don't you ever wonder what life would be like if you had stayed at Newport Union?"
"I guess"
"So… can you believe we graduate in like six months! Do you know what your going to do next year?"
"I'm not real sure yet"
"Well you have to have some kind of idea, some kind of dream"
"Actually I don't, not right now"
"Lindsay, are you ok, is something wrong?"
"No, I'm fine"
"Well then why don't you talk to me, or ever want to hang out, I though we were friends"
"Well we are, I just don't want to interfere with school, or get things complicated."
"A simple conversation won't interfere with school, I just don't understand"
"Well…"
"Well what Lindsay, I don't know why I am trying to be your friend when you obviously aren't trying to be mine?" Ryan goes to grab his keys and jacket
"Ryan"
"What you want me to wait around and talk to myself, no I'm going home"
"No you don't have to"
"Yes, yes I do"
Ryan goes outside and walks to his car parked a few houses down, and just sat there thinking for a while. He didn't want to go home, but he didn't want to go back to Lindsay's, he just wanted to sit there until he could figure out what to do.

(Alex and Seth went back to the Cohen's and watched Napoleon Dynamite.)
"That is a funny movie" Alex began
"That guy is so my hero" replied Seth
"I though Captain Oats was your Hero??"
"No no, he is my sidekick" Seth laughed, "Would you like some ice cream?"
"Depends, what kind do you have"
"Rocky Road"
"Oh my gosh yes, that is my favorite"
"Mine too" chimed Seth, "Now if you only like comic books, we would be like soulmates"
"Yea sorry, don't think that's going to happen, comic books just aren't my thing"
"That's ok though, you like rocky road"
Seth and Alex spent a large portion of their night talking and eating rocky road. After a few hours when they realized how late it was, Alex went home, and Seth went to be, quite happy, however Ryan still wasn't home.

"Yea right, you only stay with me because you think I'm easy, well I have news for you, I'm not, I really loved you, and now you bring me here to show me off and win a bet" Marissa was in tears at this point.
"No Marissa really I do like you, don't listen to them"
"Oh so I should listen to you lie to my face, no I refuse to"
"Marissa, please"
"No," as she turned around and headed for the door
"Where are you going"
"Away from you"
