Chapter 7
(That night at the party, Taylor and Reagan show up at the party and walk in. As soon as they get in the door Leighanne and Kristen come running over)
Leighanne: Girl…you just missed the best fight ever!
Taylor: Who, what, where, when, why?
Kristen: Amanda and AJ.
Reagan: That should’ve been good.
Leighanne: Oh yeah. Amanda found out that you were invited and she went off on AJ. AJ said…she’s my friend and that he wanted you here.
Kristen: Amanda did not like that at all.
Taylor: Thanks for the heads up…but if you’ll excuse me…I see jello shots that are calling my name. (Walks over to a table and downs two) Ahhh…that’s the stuff.
Reagan: (looking around) Great…don’t know anyone here.
Howie: (comes up behind Reagan) Hi honey…I don’t think we’ve been properly introduced.
Reagan: (sighs and turns around) Hi Howie.
Howie: (looks at her) Ray?
Reagan: Yeah.
Howie: Holy shit! What happened to you?
Reagan: Thanks for making me feel special.
Howie: I didn’t mean it in a bad way.
Reagan: Whatever Howie. (Walks over to the bar and gets a drink)
(A few hours later, a lot of drinks later, Taylor sees AJ sitting by the pool. She goes over and joins him)
Taylor: Mind if I join ya there pal?
AJ: No.
Taylor: (sits next to AJ) What’s your poison?
AJ: Amanda.
Taylor: Eek.  Girl troubles huh?
AJ: Yea, didn’t you hear the fight?
Taylor: Nope, I missed it.  But I heard it was a doozy.
AJ: It was.  She can’t handle the fact I have female friends.
Taylor: Hate to say this, but how can you blame her when I’m your friend?  I mean come on…look at me. (Stands up and turns around and almost falls into the pool) Whoa…who put that there?
AJ: Lil drunk huh?
Taylor: Nah. This is me sober.  Those cups of jello are evil.
AJ: Well, they are jello shots.
Taylor: No. Really?
AJ: Wise ass.
Taylor: You know you love me.
AJ: Yea ok.
Taylor: (sits down and puts her head on his shoulder) Ok, you don’t love me, but I’ve bet you’ve thought about me naked huh?
AJ: Taylor. You’re drunk.
Taylor: You think?
AJ: Yes. (he laughs)
Taylor: Well then I must be drunk…AJ MCLEAN THINKS I’M DRUNK…IT MUST BE SO!
AJ: You’re weird.
Taylor: Yea, but again, that’s what you like about me so stop your bitchin.
(Back with Reagan, endless guys won’t stop flirting with her)
Nick: (walks over) Hey there honey.
Reagan: Alright, that’s it…if one more guy calls me honey you are going to get kicked!
Nick: Easy there. A girl as fine as you should be use to it.
Reagan: (turns around) Listen up Carter, I’ve been flirted on by Howie (shudders) not to mention half the other guys in this place.  I’m never dressing like this again.
Nick: Reagan?  Is that you?
Reagan: No shit sherlock.
Nick: Wow.
Reagan: Yea yea whatever.
Nick: No really. You look good.
Reagan: It was Taylor’s idea.  Leighanne and Kristen helped and I hate it.
(Just then AJ and Taylor walk into the house, hand in hand, and then they walk upstairs)
Nick: (seeing this) I don’t believe it.
Reagan: What? (Sees AJ and Taylor) Oh man, not another one.
Nick: Damn it damn it damn him!
Reagan: Problem?
Nick: Yea, it’s just AJ, being AJ! (With that he walks away)
Reagan: Oooook then. Time for me to go home.
