"I can't believe you're actually gonna go out with him!" Sara exclaimed as
she walked along side Jenna and Samantha, their destination was the school
parking lot where their bus awaited.
"Well its not that big a deal, I mean I doubt he's going to try and do anything with Jake there!" Jenna defended, she then began to think back on Halloween and what he had tried to do in the library. "I mean you don't think he would... do you?" she then asked unsurely.
"Knowing him, most likely... YES!" Sara shouted back smartly, Jenna only sent her an unamused look.
"Uh Jenna..." Samantha then said, getting the brunette's attention. "Have you ever even been on a date?"
"No..." Jenna answered truthfully.
"Maybe I should come along too... just to make sure you're safe..." the red head suggested as they stepped up onto the bus.
"Okay... and why don't we invite Sara, Simon, and my parents while we're at it!" the brunette smarted back, Sam only rolled her eyes at her response.

"I don't get this... why do you have to come?" Tim frustratedly asked Jake as they walked into their garage.
"Because, its my car, that's why!" Jake spat sternly as he reached in his coat pocket and removed his keys, he then unwillingly handed them to Tim.
"Why are you so damn overprotective of this piece of junk!?!" Tim then asked him as he opened the driver's side door of the old car that was a dull-orange in hue.
"Cuz its mine!" was all he said in response before opening the passenger's side door and getting into the orange car.
#
#
#
The orange car pulled up to the long deck of the house, Jenna and Samantha quickly got into the car, making sure the brunette's parents didn't see who was picking them up.
"I didn't know she was coming..." Tim said with disappointment as he watched the red head get into the backseat with his date.
"Oh yeah... surprise!" Jenna tried to make light of the situation, she then frowned at the thought.
"So where are we going?" Sam asked cheerfully.
"Uh... this party that some guy Jake knows is having..." Tim answered while trying to stay focused on the road ahead.
"Let me get this straight..." Sam said from the backseat. "You're taking her on a date to somebody's party?" she asked skeptically.
"Yeah... what can I say, there aren't many places to go in Eastwick!" Tim answered honestly, Jenna only gave Samantha a sympathetic look.
#
#
#
They walked through the crowded rooms of the house, leaving their coats in the car because Samantha and Jenna didn't trust anyone else with their precious trenches. Jake quickly broke away from their small group in search of alcohol and an empty corner like he always did at parties.
"I'll be..." Sam muttered distractedly while looking around them in search of a place to go. "Just come find me when its time to leave..." she said finally, walking away from Jenna and Tim.
Jenna looked over at Tim awkwardly, as they locked eyes she smiled at him shyly.
They sat on the couch silently, watching the partying teens around them curiously before looking back to the tacky carpet beneath their feet.
"So... what should we talk about?" Tim asked her finally, looking up at her with boredom.
"I don't know... ask me anything..." she answered simply, glancing around the room slightly.
"Anything?" he repeated her words with curiosity.
"Yeah, my life's an open book... you ask, I'll tell..." Jenna muttered back, looking over at him.
"Really?" he questioned a bit dumbfounded.
"Go ahead!" she insisted, he only nodded in return.
"How long have you and Samantha been friends?" he asked.
"Since eighth grade" she answered honestly.
"Have you ever drove a car before?" he inquired.
"No."
"Ever been drunk?"
"No..." she concluded.
"Ya ever..." he thought of something to ask. "Ever kissed a guy?" he questioned with a smile.
"Um... no...." she responded, smiling back at him shyly.
"I see..." he whispered to himself while looking back at the floor, deep in thought. "Well we almost kissed once..." he then stated.
"You mean in the library?" she asked kind of puzzled.
"Yeah..." was all he said in reply, she only shook the awkward thought of them kissing away.
"Sam gave me a hicky once..." she blurted out nervously, he quickly looked back in her direction. "Then again Sam's crazy so..." she added, she then realized she was beginning to babble, like she always did when she was nervous.
"How old are you?" he asked at the sight of unease.
"I'm seventeen... what does that have to do with anything?" she wondered curiously as he stared at her blankly.
"Nothing... I was just wondering..." he mumbled to her as he returned his glance to the floor.
Jenna laughed slightly for no reason, shattering the awkward silence between them.
"What?" he questioned in lost manner as he looked her over in confusion.
"Oh... nothing, I just realized that so sounded like something from a movie I know..." she explained, laughing again almost hysterically.
Tim laughed faintly at her, he then leaned in and kissed her on the lips before she could pull away or refuse. She was so taken back by the gesture she only sat there frigidly for the first few seconds, then slowly she began to kiss him back.
As soon as their lips parted they stared into each other's eyes, Jenna then said the first thing she could think of.
"Brandy's a dragqueen..." she muttered blankly.
"What?" Tim asked in total and utter confusion.
"Oh... nothing... Where's Samantha?" she then questioned, now looking around at the crowds of people.
"I... don't know..." he replied in bewilderment.
"I have to find her... sorry..." Jenna nervously rambled before jumping up from her seat and rushing off to find her friend.
Tim sat on the couch alone and looked around dully before deciding to get up as well.

"Hey... what's up?" Sam asked at the sight of the flustered brunette coming towards her.
"Tim kissed me..." she answered in shame.
"What!" Sam shrieked in shock. "Why?"
"I don't know... he just did!" Jenna remarked with dismay.
"Did you kiss him back?" the red head inquired, Jenna slowly nodded at her question. "Whoa..." she uttered with a huge grin on her face, Jenna didn't look so amused however. "Did ya like it?" she then joked with interest.
"You're such a pervert!" Jenna mumbled back annoyed.
#
#

"Hey." Tim muttered to Jake as he walked up beside him.
Jake quickly tossed back two shots of whatever alcohol it was he was drinking at the moment and glanced over at Tim curiously.
"Why are you so depressed?" he then questioned skeptically while looking Tim over.
"I kissed Jenna..." he sighed sadly.
"And this depresses you how?" he asked cockily.
"She ran off to find Samantha right after..." Tim explained.
"Oh... well that's smooth buddy... real romantic!" Jake scoffed before taking another drink.
"Well we all can't burn down churches with our romance Romeo!" Tim mocked meanly, Jake only sent him an intimidating stare.
#

"I'm not the one who almost caught mono by sticking my tongue down Tim's throat!" Sam defended. "I mean come on Jenna, where do you think that mouth has been?" she asked sarcastically while folding her arms across her chest.
"Oh shut up! You're starting to sound like Sara!" Jenna smarted back, it was then that they heard a fight break out on the other side of the large living room.
"What the?" Sam mumbled curiously at the ruckus.
#
#

"Ridgemont!" they heard someone say in disgust from behind them.
Jake and Tim turned to see and short scruffy looking boy staring then down meanly.
"Peterson!" Jake spat back in the same tone of loathing.
"How's your slut girlfriend... oh yeah, that's right, she left your ass for a hippy!" the scruffy boy snapped scornfully.
Without another word Jake forcefully thrust his fist at the boy's face, punching him as hard as he could in the mouth.
"Oh shit!" Tim shrieked in shock as the boy fell to the floor unconscious.
It was then that a group of the boy's friends gathered around them angrily.
"Now what?" Tim asked sheepishly as they were surrounded.
"Be a man ya wimp!" Jake demanded before beating his way out of the now belligerent mob.
"Good idea!" Tim shouted in dismay as he began punching everything in sight.
As his fist came in contact with someone's cheek he cried out in pain as his hand began to throb in agony. Tim quickly pushed and shoved his way out of the crowd as he struggled to find Jake and the girls so they could get out of there.
"Come on!" Jake yelled at him with impatience as he ran towards the doorway, Jenna and Sam were now at his side.
"I think I killed somebody!" Tim cried as he held is wounded hand.
"Oh come on ya big baby! All ya did was hit someone!" Jake mocked as they walked towards the car.
"Hey... I'm a lover, not a fighter!" Tim replied as he unlocked the driver's side door to the orange car, Jake only rolled his eyes at his remark.

Jenna sat in the backseat next to Jake as Samantha sat in the passenger's seat while Tim drove down the quiet country-like road. Boredom began to overwhelm the brunette as she stared out the window at the road whipping by, she then glanced over at Jake as he stared ahead at the road before them.
Slowly she slid her hand across the gray seat and onto the loose sleeve of his black coat. Jake looked down curiously as he felt something brush against his wrist.
"What is it with you and my coat?" he whispered to her while looking her over closely.
"Its soft..." was all she said in return, shrugging innocently as she spoke.
"I see..." he said, he then reached over and began to pet her hair slowly.
"What are you doing?" Jenna asked with a slight laugh, Samantha turned around in her seat as she stared at the two in the backseat with curiosity.
"What? Its soft?" he answered plainly, continuing to stroke her hair as she rubbed the fabric of his coat between her fingers.
"You two are a couple of freaks!" Sam announced with laughter, it was then that Tim noticed what was going on.
He looked away from the road ahead and looked back at the two stunned.
"What the hell!" he exclaimed as he pulled the car over to a halting stop.

Jake sat in the passenger's seat as Samantha drove the orange car to their destination, home. Jenna and Tim now sat together in the back seat, she glanced over at him every few seconds, biting back her laughter at the thought of how jealous he had been a few moments earlier.
If only Sara would have been along tonight... Jenna thought silently as she looked out the window. Then again, it wasn't that bad of date after all... if you don't count the awkwardness, drinking, fighting and coat/hair molestation.
"Well its not that big a deal, I mean I doubt he's going to try and do anything with Jake there!" Jenna defended, she then began to think back on Halloween and what he had tried to do in the library. "I mean you don't think he would... do you?" she then asked unsurely.
