"Whatcha sayin', guys? You think we should give her a chance?" Lenny asked with a straight eye on Sam and Diane sitting in the corner of the cafeteria.
"I mean, if we don't, we're probably gonna lose Sam to her."
"Yeah, you're right. I guess, we have to do something. Like, talk to her."
"What a clever thought, Tyson," Jenson said ironically.
"She's not bad looking. If she had bigger casabas I'd get why he's with her."
"Well, let's take a better look at her then. Follow me," Lenny said and headed in the direction of Sam and Diane's table.
"Yo, Sam," Jenson said as they approached the table.
"Hey, guys. What's up?"
"Would it be alright for us to join you?"
"Uhm-" he exchanged looks with Diane. She slightly nodded.
"Well, okay."
They pulled some chairs out and sat down.
"So?"
"Well, we just thought we never got probably introduced to your friend."
"Oh, well, Diane, this is Jenson, Lenny and Tyson."
She shook hands with every one of them.
"Nice to meet you all."
"You too. I hear you're helping Sam out with English," Lenny said.
"That's right."
"I know he repays you by helping out with P.E, but how much would it cost me for notes similar to Sam's?"
"You know, Sam writes his own notes."
"That can't be true. I've seen his notes. They're horrible. No offence."
"Sam has improved to take notes remarkably."
"Wow. Well, then how much would it cost to get you to teach me how to do it?" Lenny winked.
Jenson put an elbow right in his side to shut him up.
"I'm sorry, but I frankly don't think I have time for it."
"Yeah, and besides, Diane doesn't need your money. She got plenty of her own," Sam said dryly.
"Is that so? Well, you know, I don't need as much baseball practice as Sam does. I got much more time to take you out to enjoy some P.E," Lenny challenged.
"Then it's too bad I prefer Sam to take me out," Diane smirked.
Jenson and Tyson laughed at the rejected Lenny.
"Why haven't we seen you on the field 'yet?" Jenson asked.
"Pardon me?"
"I mean, Sam's teaching you sports, why hasn't he thought of-"
"Diane's not into baseball."
"No, but she's just generally not into sports, right? But I thought you were supposed to teach her the pleasures of sports."
"Well, I am. Just- not baseball."
"Why not? That'd be the easiest sport to teach her. I mean, you're playing it yourself. She could watch how you do."
"I don't think Diane-"
"That doesn't sound like a bad idea," she said.
"What? I thought-"
"Well, I have to be open to every kind of sport, don't I? You're the teacher after all. I have to obey you."
"You can come by anytime," Jenson said.
"The coach doesn't mind on Mondays if we won in the weekend. We're more on our own during Monday practice."
"I'll remember that," she smiled.
"Great. See ya around then," Jenson smiled.
"Come on guys. See ya, Sam."
"Yeah," Sam said a bit shaken by what just happened.
Then he turned to discuss the matter with Diane.
"She wasn't too bad," Jenson said as they were walking down the halls.
"I actually think she was pretty smooth."
"So you'd think," Lenny said annoyed.
"Yeah, and she has good taste too," Tyson laughed addressed to the rejection Lenny received earlier.
"Yeah, yeah," Lenny said.
"I think Sam may be right. Maybe there's more to this girl. We just have to give her a shot, that's all."
"I still like the old Sam better. She made him a whole new person." Lenny commented.
"Yeah, but he's not coming back. And I suppose, we just have to accept that," Jenson said.
"Let's make the best out of it, huh?"
"Sure," the guys responded.
