When Loren walks through the hallway between fourth and fifth class she feels a hand pulling her into a closet. Another hand is on her mounth, making it impossible to scream. She feels how the hand ond her mounth disappears but before she can scream she feels fimiliar lips kissing her. She now know it's Tyler and kisses him back with a lot of desire. When he pulls back, she punches him to the arm.

Tyler: Auch, where's that for

Loren: For scaring me to death, I thought someone was going to kidnapp and kill me or something like that

Tyler: I'm sorry I just missed you, babe

Loren (smiling): I missed you too. It's so hard every time I see you not to run up to you.

Tyler: Yeah, same thing with me. And I can't stand all the talk of the boys of how they're going to win you over.

Loren (teasing): Oh, well maybe someone else will win me over.

Tyler: Don't you dare

Tyler kisses her passionated while pushing her against the wall. A small groan escapes out of Loren's throat before she pulls back.

Loren (breathing heavily): I've got to go to class

Tyler (groans): Why? I can't stand looking at your back during the whole class.

Loren: Well, I guess you have to. Maybe we can meet each other after school?

Tyler: No, I can't. I'm acting in a scene for this movie today.

Loren (sighs): Well, I guess I see you when you drop me off at home than?

Tyler: I'm sorry babe but you'll have to get a ride from Melissa and Ian today

Loren (shocking): What, no no no no. I can't stand their dirty talk to each other for a whole ride!

Tyler: Well, I guess you'll have to.


After school Loren walks sighing to Ian's car when someone grabs her arm.

Eddie: I can give you a ride if you want

Loren: And why would I want that?

Eddie: Because you don't want to be in a car full of dirty talk from Ian and Melissa for a whole ride

Loren: And what makes you think I would want to be in a car with you and your girlfriend for a whole ride?

Eddie: Because my girlfriend isn't going with us

Loren: Correction, why would I want to be in a car with you for a whole ride?

Eddie: Because Melissa and Ian just drove away without you

Loren (shocked): What? No! (calm) I'll walk, it's not that far

Loren starts to walk but Eddie has gotten into his car and drives next to her.

Eddie: Come on Loren Tate, just don't be so stubborn for once

Loren (sighs): Okay, but if you try something again I'll hit you so hard you won't even be able to remember your name

Eddie: I won't, I'm too scared for that. Now get in

Loren gets into the car and they don't say anything to each other for the whole ride. Loren is confused when they stop at her spot

Loren: What are we doing at my spot?

Eddie: Your spot? This is my spot, I've came here since I was 12

Loren: Well, than I guess it is your spot. Thanks for clearing that up, can I go home now?

Eddie: No, you can't. Not before we talk

Loren (frustrated): About what?

Eddie: Well, for starters you slapping me... twice

Loren: What about that?

Eddie: Eh, maybe you can tell me why you did it?

Loren: You really don't know?!

Eddie: No Loren, I don't

Loren: Well, the first time was because you tried to kiss me

Eddie: Why woud you slap me for that?

Loren (with sarcasm): Eh, let me think. Oh I know because we just met each other, I didn't like you... at all and you only did it to seduce me

Eddie (looking down): I'm sorry Loren. What about the second time?

Loren: Oh, well I think it was because you tried to kiss me the other day while having a girlfriend!

Eddie: Yeah, maybe that wasn't so smart

Loren: You think?

They were quiet for a while

Loren: So, why did you?

Eddie: I don't know, I just liked you and you didn't like me so I guess you were a challenge for me

Loren: I still don't like you, so am I still your challenge

Eddie: No, I know now that it was wrong

They were quiet again but than Eddie begins to talk again

Eddie: Loren, can I ask you something?

Loren: If you have to

Eddie: Why do you act so strong all the time?

Loren: What do you mean?

Eddie: Well, you act so strong all the time but beneath that I just see a sweet girl

Loren: You're right but nobody noticed before although my family has an idea why

Eddie: So why do you?

Loren (hurted): Two years go my father left us when Melissa and I were 16. He told us he was getting Melissa and I a new car for our sixteenth birthday but he never came back. I just don't want to get hurt like that again.

Loren tries to stop the tears but can't

Loren: I'm sorry, I don't even know why I told you all of that. I'll just go

Before Loren could walk away Eddie grabs her arm and pulls her into a hug. They sat there for a while.


Loren: So, what about your girlfriend?

Eddie: What about her?

Loren: Well, you tried to kiss another girl and now you're holding another girl. Why aren't you with her now?

Eddie: Well, I don't exactly like her anymore

Loren: So why don't you break up with her

Eddie: I guess I just don't want to hurt her

Loren: That's sweet but the longer you wait, the more it'll hurt her

Eddie: Yeah, maybe you're right. Maybe I should break up with...
