Mandy: (Moving around Kitchen) Where’s the oatmeal?
Jake:(Brushes hair back) In the Cabinet.
Mandy(Happily) Found it!
Jake: (Sorely) Good for you. Now let’s go to school.

Silent…

Jake: (Angrily) Oh yeah, and don’t just welcome yourself into my house without asking!
Mandy: But I am your best friend.
Jake: (Stands up) That doesn’t change a thing! Now let’s go.

Locks door.

Mandy: (Scratching head) I left my book bag inside.
Jake: (Puts hand on head) Are you serious!


At School


Mandy: ( Loudly) Jake I’m staying after school today so don’t wait up!
Jake: (Under breath) Don’t worry I won’t.
Mandy: (Straight forward) What does that mean?
Jake: (Sarcastically) Nothing, Nothing at all.

Rachel: Seems like you two are getting along as good as ever.
Mandy and Jake: (Slumping over) Sure.
Rachel: Have you two decided what stand you’re going to work at for the school fun raiser? We have three left open; the kissing both, snack bar, or dunk the idiot in the water tank.
Jake: (Sarcastically) Well we can’t do the kissing both, Mandy is to ugly we would never get enough money. And if she gets dunked she would probably sink. So I guess we’re doing the snack bar.
Mandy: (Hitting Jake on his head) What’s that suppose to mean?
Jake: Nothing, nothing at all. You wouldn’t understand anyway.
Rachel: (Sighs) This is going to be a long day…Well I’ll get headed to class you two should get going to. I mean I am the hall monitor after all and just because I’m your friend doesn’t mean I won’t give a detention slip.
Jake: ( Looking at Mandy) Sometimes I think she should be the principle.
Mandy: ( Frowning) Tell me about it.

In Class
Teacher: Today class we will get into groups of two and mix chemical compounds together with more chemical compounds. And the fun thing about it is that I haven’t even tested it yet. So let’s have fun and mix them together.
Jake: (Worried) But isn’t that a little dangerous?
Teacher: ( laughing) Not if we wear our goggles. Oh yeah and if some of the chemicals get on you don’t worry just keep having fun!
Mandy: (talking to Jake) Okay our teacher has totally lost it.
Jake: Yeah and she didn’t even give us gloves.
Max: (Smiling) Hey Mandy, you left this at the club practice yesterday.
Mandy: (Blushing) Thank you so much.
Max: Okay see you later after school.

Jake: You like him don’t you?
Mandy: And what if I do.
Jake: (Silent.)
Mandy: You Going to say something.
Jake: (Angry) I’m leaving.
Mandy: (Sighs)…..

Mandy at locker
Mandy: (Surprised) Oh what’s this?
Rachel: Looks like somebody left you some chocolate and a card. Looks like you have a secret admirer.
Mandy: Wow this is so cool. I’m going to read the letter.


Letter
*Dear Mandy, meet me after school in the school’s court yard.*
Mandy: I’m so going to tell Jake.
Rachel: (Confused) I still don’t get it who would like you?
Mandy: (Shocked) You’re so mean.
Rachel: Well I didn’t pick you as a friend you picked me. Oh yeah where’s Jake, you two are almost never apart.
Mandy: I don’t know he just got mad during first block after Max talked to me and left.
Rachel: (Getting books out of locker) You’re really dull.
Mandy: What is that supposed to mean?
Rachel: (Sighing) You’ll find out on your own…If you’re smart enough.
Mandy: (Depressed) You and Jake just love making fun of me don’t you.
Rachel: (Leaving) It’s not that hard. You actually make it way easier to do.

After Lunch
Mandy: Where is he.
Silent

Mandy: (Thinking) Oh there he is. It’s max!
Max: Hey Mandy what are you doing in the food court.
Mandy: You don’t know?
Max: No I’m just here to sit under the trees. Why are you here?
Jake: (Loudly) Over here Mandy!
Mandy(Walks over) Jake not now I have to wait for my secret admirer.
Jake: No. Just wait a sec.
Mandy: No I have to go.

Grabs Mandy’s’ arm.
Mandy: Let go. I’m waiting for…
Jake: I’m the one who put the letter in your locker.
Mandy: (Depressed) And finally I thought I was getting a boyfriend.
Jake: Listen.
Mandy: I know it was a joke for making you mad here I’m sorry. I hope you had fun.
Jake: No I like you.
Mandy: (Laughing) Very funny now I have to go.
Jake: (Seriously) I like you!
Mandy: (silent)
Jake: Believe me.
Mandy: But what about all the jokes?
Jake: I just thought you were funny looking sometimes.
Mandy: (Angry) What do you mean about that!
Jake: So do you like me?
Mandy: I don’t know. I just can’t see you than more than a friend.
Jake: I see, then I’ll give you a week to decide.
Mandy: (confused) What the, I didn’t agree to this.
Jake: Oh well you have to because I am your best friend.

Jake walks away

Mandy: (Blushing) That jerk…I’m going to get him…Not really.
