9:20 PM... Western's Double Stir Restaurant... Liam and Catherine are now having some drink as they listen to the band playing to some hit tunes. Both Liam and Catherine decided to order red wine. To Liam's surprise, Catherine actually enjoys it, despite that it's her first time drinking. Catherine remembers how her late father used to buy wine for special occasions. "Well you are fond to this. I should let you try other drinks next time," says Liam as he takes his glass of wine to take a slow sip. "This is actually quite nice," says Catherine as she finish her first glass. Though she feels amazing at this point, she knew that she needed to control herself. She can't skip work tomorrow. The reason she came here tonight was to have fun, and not to slack off the next day. "So....tell me about yourself, Miss Catherine," says Liam as he stares deeply at Catherine, who is trying her best to control herself from the tipsy effect. "What do you want to know?" Catherine asks. "Everything. Your hobby, interest, who you like maybe," says Liam before forming his signature cheesy smile. "Well, I have a deep interest in history, economics, and pyschology. In my free time I enjoy reading books, playing golf, and horse back riding," says Catherine as Liam pours another glass of wine for her. "And you?" "Well, since young, I always have a deep passion for performing arts. I started to perform on plays since kindergarden, and for what I still remember, the teacher loves me. As I grew up I realized that I also grew other interest along the way, and one of them is law study. Now I currently want to focus on law study when I go to college, but performing arts will always be a part of me. It's just in my blood," says Liam as he wraps his story with confidence. "Law study? That sounds nice. So you're planning to be a lawyer?" Catherine asks as her voice starts to sound more and more tipsy. "Yeah..I want to make a difference in this world. I think it would be such an honour to be able to take part in changing the world to build a better society," says Liam. In a tipsy state where Catherine could barely think straight, she thought about Liam's words were fascinating to her ears. Though she knew she needed to see his actions first before trusting his words fully, yet tonight, she just wants to admire his great mind tonight. Maybe there really is more into this guy than just his casanova charm and sweet words. 9:30 PM... The Pins Up Bowling Center.... "Score," screams Alyson as she jumps to high five Alexis who is watching her slay the pins. "Good job, Aly," says Alexis. "I'm a pro," says Aly with a big smile. "And you're my lil pro," says Sam before he pulls Aly into his embrace, where their lips touch and enter a light kiss. "Cuties," says Aria as she starts taking picture of the cute couple. "The couple needs some privacy, Ri," says Carter as he stares at his two friends. "And they also need to get viral on social media," says Aria as she starts posting the pictures on her Instagram story. "Oh boy..new rumours are coming up," says Alexis. "Tell me about it," says Carter. 9:40 PM... Gina just got back from Victoria's place. She was about to enter her room when she overhears noises from George's room. Sounds like he's playing a game on his Playstation 4. Out of boredom and not being tired enough to get some sleep, Gina decides to enter her brother's room. "Shoot," George almost screams at his words. "Epic comeback?" Gina asks as she stares at her brother's TV screen. "Just getting started," says George as his vision focus on fighting the enemy. "I'm joining," says Gina as she takes a seat beside her twin brother. "Just wait for the second match," says George with a cheesy smile. "Damn," says Gina as she stares at the screen. 10 PM... "Thanks for tonight, Brown! It was fun," says Catherine as she struggles to stand properly in a tipsy manner. The two are standing outside of Catherine's house. "No problem! I had a fun time with you tonight. We should do it more often," says Liam as he starts to get closer to the tipsy Catherine. His vision stares into her deep eyes, before slowly moving to her lips. Without hesitation, he slowly leans closer, where their lips finally meet each other. Though she knows that she's way too surprised, Catherine couldn't help but kiss back her first friend in LA. Well, he does have a record of trying to please her almost everytime. Since their conversation at the restaurant, Catherine starts to get fascinated by Liam for his great mind. 24 Dishes... "You know we could always go to McDonald's for 24 hours of food," says Alexis before he takes a bite of his salmon sandwhich. "We just did that 3 weeks ago," says Aria before taking a sip of her orange juice. Aly and Sam are busy feeding each other's pasta to one another, making Aria, Carter, and Alexis all stare at them. "New couple alert?" Aria asks as she stares at Alexis. "THE new couple, Ri," says Alexis with a smile. "They do look good together," says Carter. 10:15 PM... At Patrick's house... Lying down with the lights off while tossing and turning, though his eyes felt sleepy enough to go to dream land, his soul is awake and his mind working hard. Patrick is having one of those sleepless nights, and like every time, he didn't like it at all. In fact, nothing bothers Patrick more than a lack of sleep. But tonight he had figure out that his soul is still awake. He sticks out his right arm from under his blanket to turn on his night lamp. He sits up and grabs the glass of water from his bed side. He puts back his glass of water and looks up to his sky theme blue ceilings. It's a good thing tomorrow is Sunday, so he wouldn't have to worry about school. Ohh man. Patrick thought to himself. His heart is feeling somehow restless, and his mind just keeps running in the same direction. At this state he knew too well that he's missing someone dearly. Funny cause he thought that he was suppose to be missing Lindsay at this point. But no, the girl he's missing right now is not her. FLASHBACK... As Lindsay and Leonard are performing on stage, the other students waits behind the stage as they continue to slip in some small practice and get ready. "Are you ok?" a confident yet smooth voice tickles Patrick's ears as he stands in silent while listening to Leonard's voice from behind the cuirtains. "Yeah..just some butterflies," says Patrick as he stares at the girl standing behind him. She's wearing a maroon cheongsam crop top with butterfly patterns, complete with long black skinny jeans and some black flats. Her hair is tied into a ponytail. Damn, this girl looks way too hot. "Hey, we're gonna slay the stage no one else! Don't sweat it," says Tiffany as she puts her hand on Patrick's shoulder, giving him more butterflies running inside. "Jia you (spirits up)," says Tiffany before she walks pass him to approach Vincent who was combing his hair. END OF FLASHBACK... What a beautiful girl. Patrick thought to himself as he starts to form one of his bright smiles. Sunday, 8AM.... At Scarlett's house... Scarlett is having a calm breakfast with her parents and grandma like usual. Yet, not like any other day, today she woke up looking messed up. Her eyes look like she hasn't slept for 2 days, while her hair is tied in messy pigtails. She stares at her chicken soup with sleepy eyes. Her mom noticed how her daughter looked exhausted. "Scarlett, are you ok? You look tired," her mom asks. "Are you still sleepy, sweetie?" her sarcastic grandma asks. "I'm sure she's just tired," says her dad as he stares into his daughter's sleepy eyes. "Excuse me," says Scarlett as walks away from the dining table, not even bothering to put her dirty plate to the dish washer. "You don't want dessert, Honey?" her mom asks. "No thanks! My batteries low," says Scarlett before she slams the door behind as she enters her room. "And I thought she just charged her phone," says her grandma before she continues to dig in her second bowl of fruit pudding. Scarlett slams her body down on her bed as she grabs a small pillow to cover her face. She was in the urge to scream her heart, but knows that it would probably cause her parents and grandma to overreact. They just don't understand her, she thought. She grabs her phone and starts to check out Vincent's Instagram. She needed to know whether he was busy making out with another woman last night, that he didn't answer her call. To her surprise, Vincent didn't post anything. Well, she knew it was too good to be true. She came across Aly's Instagram and saw a picture of her along with her friends from last night's bowling game. Scarlett's eyes couldn't stop staring at Vincent in the picture, who was posing casually with Carter by his side. That little guy! How dare he. Scarlett thought in fury. Furious, he assumed that Vincent probably met a new girl at the bowling club, she called his number, getting ready to scream everything to his ears now. At Vincent's house... As Vincent was in the middle of solving his puzzle, his phone surprised him by the blasting ringtone of Bruno Mars - That's What I Like playing in high volume. Annoyed, he grab his phone to see the name of the caller. What is she doing on a Sunday morning? Vincent thought with annoyance. Yet he knew it would be rude to ignore her again after he had ignored her last night. Scarlett made 7 calls to him, in which he didn't answer. Not wanting to make things more complicated, Vincent decided to swipe his phone to answer it. Yup, he was ready to hear her annoying tantrums at this state. "Why didn't you answer my call last night?" Scarlett asks with fury in her voice. "I was busy," says Vincent in a chill tone, as he had no intention to start any drama. "What? Busy letting your tongue down another woman's throat?" Scarlett asks as she gets more furious at her own imagination playing in her head. "You're being ridiculous. I was with some friends," says Vincent as he puts down a piece of his puzzle. "Liar!!! I was gonna come to your place, but you chose THEM over ME," says Scarlett as she almost scream at her words. "We didn't even had an appointment yesterday," says Vincent as he was starting to get annoyed at his "girlfriend". As the call continue, Scarlett continues her constant nagging at Vincent, making him feel more annoyed at this state. 11:10 AM.... Victoria and Tyler are on their way to Angeles Amusement Park. The two share some fun converstation as Tyler drives along the road. To Victoria's surprise, Tyler is actually a fun guy to talk with. He has a free mind and is not as snobbish as people describe him to be. Well, at least to her, he's a cool guy. "Have Lindsay and Leonard arrive yet?" Victoria asks as she keeps her eyes on the road. "Nah, Leo told me they're gonna run a little late. Linds need 2 hours to finish her whole damn make-up," says Tyler with a sassy tone. "So, what do you say we go for lunch first before them?" "Umm..I kinda ate a lot this morning. I'm not hungry yet," says Victoria. "Oh come on! I know a nice burger restaurant at the amusement park! They have a lot of tasty burgers," says Tyler. "Just grab a burger, it'll be fun!" "Fine...one burger is ok," says Victoria as she look at Tyler who is focus on the road. Wow, he could be stubborn on his opinion. And take notes, he really looks like someone with a passion of food. The way he describe the burger, just wow. Felicity Hat Store... 11:26 AM... Though she was pretty tipsy last night, Catherine was able to get herself enough energy for her shift. What happened last night between her and Liam was something she both expected but was also surprised at the same time. Ok, surprised because it was her first time getting drunk with a guy, but she did expected him to get all cheesy. What would a guy want from a girl on a night out together? Of course, chemistry is one of them. "Thank you for shopping! Have a nice day." As Catherine watches the lady who had just bought a new sport cap walks out of the store, she spot two familiar teenagers walk inside her store. "Hello! How can I help you guys?" Catherine asks the two teenagers who look like they have different things in mind. "We need a hat to disguise ourselves," says the male teenager, who is none other than Scott. "And what type of hat of disguise do you want?" Catherine asks, though she was also confuse. "Scott here said that he wanted to find costumes to help spy over some of our friends," says the female teenager, Candice. "Lovers, Candice!! Our lovers," says Scott with a bold tone. "Ok, whatever. We just need some hats," says Candice. "This is not exactly a Halloween store for costumes, but let me see what I can get for you," says Catherine as she walks to the back to find something that could suit her two friends. "Are you sure this is a good idea?" Candice asks as she puts her hands on her hips while raising one eyebrow at Scott. "They're gonna go on double dates! We can't stand to lose them," says Scott with jealousy in his tone. "We're not even official with either of them," Candice stated in disappointment. "That's why we need to get them at all cost. One day, Tiff will be mine forever," says Scott. I actually doubt I could get Arthur under my skin again. Candice thought. To be continue....
