Beth was getting more and more used to walking through the halls of West Beverly High. Even though at times she missed her old school and her old friends. While going up to her locker she noticed Steve Sanders with Andrea Zuckerman. Beth laughed at the site, they seemed to be going over notes.
" Good morning," Beth said going up to them.
" Hey Beth," Steve said, " You look good this morning. Sleep well?"
" Considering that I stayed up a little later to study for that history test," Beth said, " I guess so."
" Did you study with Scott?" Steve asked.
" Yes," Beth said, " And David Silver."
" Two guys at your house?" Andrea asked, " What do your parents think?"
" My parents are fine with it," Beth said, " I think they like Scott more than I do. What about you two? Are you two a couple?"
" Not exactly," Andrea said, " We were just going over some notes."
" You two look cute together," Beth said, " Oh and I managed to get to that article too. The one about the basketball team."
Beth handed Andrea the article, but felt a little shaky.
" I'm sure it's well written," Andrea said, " You write very well."
" Thanks," Beth said, " I have to get going. I have to meet Scott in the computer lab."
Beth then walked away.
" I wonder about them two," Steve said.
" Scott and Beth?" Andrea asked, " Steve they're sophmores, plenty of time to be serious."
Andrea walked away from Steve and Steve just shook his head and laughed.
Later in the day Beth sat outside with the rest of the gang. Beth sighed and got up.
" Is she okay?" David asked Scott.
" Beth said that history test was harder then she thought," Scott said, " It was hard."
" It sure was," David said, " Beth is smart though, I'm sure she'll do fine."
Beth then sat back down with another sigh.
" What's wrong my precious angel?" Scott asked.
" I bombed that test," Beth said, " I know I did."
Beth felt tears come to her eyes, Scott just hugged her.
" I'm sure you did fine," Scott said, " You always do after you say you bombed."
Beth tried to smile, but also felt lost and confused.
After school Beth went to the office of the Blaze only to see Steve with Andrea talking.
" Sorry," Beth said, " Should I come back?"
Steve and Andrea looked at each other.
" No," Steve said, " I was about to leave. See you later."
Steve left and Beth looked around.
" Are you okay?" Andrea asked, " Your article was great. Job well done."
" It's not that," Beth said, " I have something on my mind. I think I love Scott, but how do you know for sure?"
Andrea looked at her, " How does he make you feel?" she asked.
Beth sat down, " Scott makes me feel happy," she said, "My parents like hi. My father said that's the kind of guys he would love to see me marry."
Andrea sat down with her," Anything else you want to talk about?" Andrea asked, " I would love to help."
" I feel like I want to tell Scott I love him," Beth said, " But I don't know. What would he think?"
" I think he loves you too," Andrea said, " I see the way he looks at you. You make him happy."
Beth smiled, she felt better.
" What about you and Steve?" Beth asked," You two looked chummy."
Andrea blushed, " I like Steve," Andrea said, " We're going to the movies. That's all."
Beth then laughed.
" What's so funny?" Andrea asked.
" Steve likes you too," Beth said, " He is cute, but I like Scott."
Beth then left the office and headed home.
Later in the evening, Beth got a visit from Scott but she couldn't let him in.
" My parents aren't home," Beth said, " You heard them say that I can't have friends over when they're not home."
Scott seemed disappointed.
" I guess I should've called first," Scott said, " I'm sorry."
Beth smiled. She wanted Scott to come in, but being alone with Scott was not a good idea.
