(Brittany is in the kitchen, she's preparing a chicken sandwich. She's alone in the house, her parents went to dinner with some friends of theirs. She takes her sandwich and a glass of orange juice and heads in the living room, she was about to turn the t.v on when suddenly someone knocks on the door).

(Brittany, still holding her sandwich and her orange juice glass, goes infront of the door).

Brittany - Yes, who is it?

Male voice - It's the Police, open the door!!

(Brittany is surprised, she puts her sandwich and her glass on a little table near the door and then she opens it).

(There're three policemen, and with them are Scott and Craig).

Brittany - What the hell is going on??? What are you doing here???

Policeman - You are suspected to have kidnapped Monica Des'ree, we have the permission to search in the house (He gives her the official paper).

Brittany - Wha-what?? I'm accused of kidnapping?? What makes you think I kidnapped her? She's my best friend!!

Craig - Shut up Brit! I know that you remember!!

(Brittany is even more surprised).

Brittany - What??? Scott, can you tell me what's going on??

(Scott remains silent, he doesn't know if he should be against her or on her side. After all, maybe Craig lied but...the most important question for him was, where's Monica? Is she all right?)

Brittany - (Looking at Craig). You bastard!! I'm sure you're behind all this!

Craig - I know that you are the one who hit Monica with the car!

(Brittany slaps him with anger).

(They all remain silent...)

(After 10 minutes or so...)

(The policemen approaches them, they finished the search).

Brittany - (Sarcastically) Did you find Monica?

Policeman - No, but, we are not finished with you yet. Come with us, we need to ask you some questions.

(Brittany looks at Craig with hate in her eyes).

Brittany - (You bastard!)

The Sun has risen a few hours ago, Shawn is already dressed up to go to his school. He looks at himself in the mirror and he smiles, it's the first time in months that he's happy to live. After a quick breakfast, he kisses his mother good bye and gets out of the house. He starts to walk towards "Sunrise High" when he meets his boyfriend, Taylor. The two smile to each other.

"Hey there." says Taylor before giving Shawn a big kiss. The latter smiles as a reply. The two start their way to their school, they start talking about everything and anything. Then, with a cute smile, Shawn says, "I dreamt of you last night."

"Really? Was it a "parental guidance", "above 18" or just a "family" one?" asks Taylor, he's quite flattered that Shawn dreamt of him. He wished that they could just be together, just he and him. That would be so fantastic, to spend a day with the one he loves.

Shawn comes infront of Taylor, they stop walking. He makes little circles with his right foot and look deep inside the eyes of his boyfriend, he gives him a sweet and tender kiss full of passion. "Well, I can't tell you right now, you'll see later on."

Taylor is quite surprised, "Are you sure you're okay? You sound weird today." Hearing that, Shawn gives him a big warm hug. "I know I sound weird, but I'm not, it's just that I have a little surprise for you, I hope you'll like it."

This is getting even weirder, so, Shawn got a surprise for him. Though he wants to ask him what it is, he know that Shawn won't say anything. So, he's just gonna scare him a little, "Hey!! I'm feeling strange all of a sudden!" he says and surprises Shawn. "What's wrong? You're not feeling well?" the latter asks with worry.

"My hands, they...they...they need to tickle the hell outta someone!" replies a smiling Taylor. Shawn widens his eyes and put some distance between him and Taylor. "Oh no! You're not gonna get me this time!" He sticks out his tongue just to tease his boyfriend. "Oh, I wouldn't be so sure if I were you." replies a smiling Taylor who starts approaching Shawn.

"Nah nah nah!" yells Shawn before running away but Taylor starts chasing him and yells, "You can run but you can't hide!!"

Most of the students are now, already in the school. Some are finishing their homework, some are copying others' work and others are talking, like Maria and Michael. They are at the cafeteria drinking some coffee, smiling and talking about themselves. Shawn even came in the picture, Michael asked Maria if she was ok with her brother's new way of life. She replied that she needed some time to adapt herself to the situation. They didn't date yet, they didn't kiss either. Maria sees in Michael a friend and a possible boyfriend, but she's not ready yet. Michael is not really sure what he feels for her, is it love, a crush or just plain friendship?

Finally, Michael decides to ask her 'the' question. "Uh, Maria, can I ask you something? You can say no if you want, I won't be hurt or anything." And with that, he adds a cute little smile.

Maria puts down her cup of hot black coffee, and looks at Michael with a smile. "Go on, ask me..."

Michael clears his throat, though he already went out with a lot of girls, this time, he's nervous. The only other girl who made him nervous like this was Jessica. "Maria, I was wondering, would you like to go out for dinner with me? Just me and you."

Maria smiles to this proposition, after all, maybe it was time to cheer up. So she agreed, they're going out tonight. Only dinner, that's all. She's sure she's going to have a good time.

As the usual Maths teacher was absent, a replacement was made. But, what student would remain silent in a 'free' class? Yep, no one. So, most of the students talked in the room, but not really loud. They are not stupid. But only the 'good' students remained silent, they read their books or just layed their heads on the desk.

Scott is worried, no one knows where Monica is, if she's ok, if she's still alive. Brittany is suspected to have kidnapped her, but it's Craig who accused her. Did he tell the truth?

"Hey...Don't worry, I'm sure she's fine." says Craig trying to comfort his... friend. Scott gives a shy smile as a reply, for once he loved someone like never before. But, she's not here with him, to laugh with him, to talk to him, to kiss him.

"Thanks, I really hope you're right. If only there was a simple way to find her, just by a click or something like that." sighed Scott while passing his hands through his blond hair.

Craig looks at Scott with eyes of compassion, "I wish I could do something to help you." Scott turns his head to look at him, "Can you find where Monica is?"

There's a moment of silence, then, "I know a way." whispers Craig and this surprises Scott.

Time passed and it's time for the 'Activity' period. For this period, a bunch of students always 'ditch' it coz' they find it boring. Strange, the school gives them this period to have fun and relax and they find it boring! Anywayz, Kristine wasn't in the mood to do anything so she just walked around and ended in the Garden.

She's hurt, sad and angry. Her boyfriend dumped her for another boy, it wasn't something nice to go through. She felt like if she disgusted him from the girls. But then, good friend that she is, Jessica approached her, with the envy of making the pain go off the heart of her friend.

"Still feeling low, huh?"

"Yeah, it's so hard to forget him." replies Kristine, then there's a pause. "Why did he do that to me? What did I do to him to deserve such a punishment? I loved him with all my heart. Oh Lord, was I such a bad girlfriend?"

Jessica gives her friend a big warm and friendly hug. "Kris, it's not your fault. You loved him but he didn't love you the same way. And then...when he and Shawn...well, I don't know how it happened, but they found love in each other."

Kristine looks at her friend, wondering if she was right or not, anyway, she was still deeply hurt. "I hate him! I hate him so much! If only he could just die!!! If only he could be burned alive, I would love to see it!! Oh I hate him so much!!!" she says with tears coming to her eyes.

Jessica gives her the compassionate look, "No, Kris, it's not the good way, it's not the right way, don't hate him, don't hate Taylor, just...just forget him or just try to."

Kristine looks, back at Jessica, surprised. "No, I don't hate Taylor...I hate Shawn!!! That bastard!!! That miserable son of a...I would be able to kill him if I could!!"

Jessica is stunned...the kind hearted Shawn just made himself an enemy. But, maybe with time Kristine will learn to forgive and forget...or will she give Shawn a sort of...payback. With Monica who got hit by a car...for Jessica, all is possible.

The teacher who was supposed to replace the usual karate teacher didn't come, so once again, Taylor and Shawn will have to train alone. The person in charge of the Activities promised them that they will do all they can to get a karate teacher as soon as possible.

For Shawn, it was good news because he was going to give Taylor his 'surprise'. When they entered the room, Shawn locked the door behind him with a smile on his face. They were now wearing their usual white sleeveless t-shirts, black shorts which ended near their knees and they were barefooted. They started the training and after 15 or 17 minutes, Shawn stops and stares at Taylor.

"Is there something wrong?" asks Taylor. "Umm...Taylor...I want to ask you something...but I'm sure you'll think I'm a...jerk." After hearing that, Taylor approaches Shawn and gives him a kiss on the lips, he smiles, "I'll never think you're a jerk and you can ask me anything...anything you want, k?"

Shawn smiles back, then he tooks a deep breath, "Taylor, can you lay on the ground, please?" The latter lifts his eyebrows in surprise, "W-What?" Shawn looks at the ground, "Please...just do it. Lay on the ground...and on your back, please?"

Taylor doesn't know what to say or...to think, does Shawn want to...? No, he's not like that! So, he does what his boyfriend asked him. He is now laying on the ground and on his back. Shawn smiles then sits on Taylor's stomach part. The latter was spread in the 'eagle' style. His arms were and legs were spread wide.

What Taylor doesn't know though is that Shawn is using his power to maintain him on the ground. Shawn has now a mischievous smile, "Why are you smiling like that?" asks Taylor, wondering what Shawn was up to.

"T-T-Taylor..."

"Yeah?"

"My...my hands...they...they want to tickle..they need to tickle someone immediately!" Taylor widens his eyes hearing that. So, that was the 'surprise'. "Oh, c'mon man! No.. You won't dare..." But by the look on Shawn's face, he could easily see that he 'is' going to do it. Without losing any more time, Shawn dives his fingers on Taylor's armpits. The latter starts to laugh, and to laugh hard. "HahahahahahahhaaShawnhahahahhano!!"

But, Shawn doesn't hear him and he continues to tickle the hell out of him. He was smiling and enjoying the moment. "You like it so far?" he asks, "HahahahahaNo!!!!!!" replies his boyfriend. He continues the tickling for 4 or 5 minutes then stops. He turns around and goes between the legs of Taylor. "W-W-What...are...W-What are you doing?" he asks, but, as a reply, Shawn just gives him a little smile. Then, he grabs Taylor's ankles and puts them under his arms, his feet were now at his mercy and with a grin, Shawn starts the tickling torture. He goes from heels to toes and toes to heels. He scratches, caress and scratches again. Then, after 10 minutes and after giving some kisses on Taylor's toes, he turns around and lays on Taylor, now, they are facing each other.

With a red face and trying to catch back his breath Taylor says, "(pant)...you...are..(pant)... you are so...(pant) evil!" But, just then, Shawn gives him a big and passionate kiss on the lips. And then, he goes near Taylor's right armpit and licks it. Shawn couldn't believe it but he likes it. Maybe it's because he loves Taylor so much, and when you love someone, you love every single part of him, his body, his heart, his soul.

"I love ya lots, Taylor!"

"I...(pant)...love ya tons!"

They both smile, hug warmly and then...they give each other a long, soft, tender and passionate kiss.

"Thank you, for this wonderful dinner." says the red headed girl with an angelic smile. "Thank you for accepting my invitation." replies Michael with a smile too. "Well, this is it, hehehe." says Maria nervously.

They are now infront of the Rulin's house, Maria's mother was already home as her car is in the alley. Michael and Maria look at each other, not knowing if they should or shouldn't. Who knows? Maybe they will like it.

"Maria...I was wondering, would you...would you mind if I give you a kiss?"

Maria blushes immediately after hearing that. "So?" asks Michael with a smile. But instead of using words, Maria gives him a french kiss, a long french kiss. "That...That was great!" says a nervous Michael. "Yeah...great!" replies Maria and then she kisses him again...longer this time.

After some other kisses, they say goodbye and Maria goes in the house with a smile on her face. When she enters the room, she sees her mother with a big smile on her face. "Well, it seems like you've stolen another heart!" she says before giving her daughter a big hug. Shawn's sitting on the couch with his glass of almond milk in his hands.

"Congrats Maria!" he says happily. "Thanks, he's really a nice and...sexy guy!!" replies a smiling Maria. Then she goes upstairs to take a long and hot bath.

"So, my little bee, when are you going to introduce me to her?" asks Shawn's mother with a bright smile.

"W-What? W-Who?"

"Your girlfriend. I'm sure you have a girlfriend because I noticed a little change in you, there's a sort of fire in your eyes. You can't lie to your mom, coz we know these kind of things." she expains as a reply.

After a little moment of silence, "I...I don't have a girlfriend, mom." His mother looks at him with the 'Oh c'mon' look. "You?! You don't have a girlfriend? My cute little heart...Ok. I'll not insist, but at least me, tell me what's her name. Just her name."

"Mom...I don't have a girlfriend. I promise!" replies Shawn a bit angry.

Heather Rulin sits next to her son and puts her arm around him. "My little bee, are you all right? I didn't want to make you angry." But as soon as he hears that, Shawn gives her a big warm hug almost dropping his glass of almond milk.

"Sorry, mom. I...I don't have a girlfriend, that's all."

She smiles and then gives him a kiss on his forehead. "It's ok, my little bee. It's ok."

"Craiiiiiiggggg, it's been 3 hours now...I'm tired!! I'm going back home!" says a tired Scott. "Just wait a few more minutes, I'm sure she has something to do with this kidnapping." replies Craig who's holding binoculars, they are both holding binoculars.

Craig proposed that they should spy on Brittany, maybe she will lead them to Monica. At first Scott was reluctant to do it but...he didn't want to lose a chance to find her, so he gave in. But now, he regrets it. They are hiding in the bushes, watching the house of Brittany.

"Craig! It's no use, if she really did it, you think she'll be that dumb to go out and..." "Sssshhhhhh!!! Look!!!"

A guy just arrived and knocked at the door, he has short blond hair and is quite athletic. Brittany comes out and closes the door behind her. The two seems a bit nervous.

"Who's that guy?? I've never seen him before!" says a surprised Craig.

"Me too, me too." replies a worried Scott, maybe Craig was right after all, maybe it's Brittany who did kidnap Monica.

"Scott...look!!" The latter takes his binoculars and he sees the guy giving Brittany a sort of package, she puts it behind the flower pot near the door. "I wonder what's in it..." he says. "Why don't we go and take a look." replies Craig. "What? You crazy??" "No, I'm not, coz' they are going away together." That's right, Brittany and the 'guy' enter the car and go away.

"It's now or never!" says Craig as he gets up. There's a moment of silence, Scott is hesitating. All this seems so easy...

"What do you decide??" asks Craig looking at Scott in the eyes.

"Let's get that package!" replies Scott getting up.
