I wanted to see you.

I don't know.

11:
30.

Well, if you want to break

a few dozen perv laws,

you could always ignore me

and come over anyway.

Ricky, no, that was a joke.

No, don't.

Luke!

Luke!

What? There's a spider. Kill it.

Just kill it.

Squish it!

It didn't do anything wrong.

Ash!

Ah.

Ashley!

Ashley, are you okay?

What?

I can handle myself

just fine, thank you.

The answer's still no.

Go on.

You're free now.

There you go, big guy.

Ricky, I know.

Yes, I know I leave soon.

You know you're my guy.

Can't we hang out tomorrow?

Okay.

Okay. Okay, well, maybe

if kiddo falls asleep early.

Okay.

All right, bye.

Luke?

Luke!

Luke, where are you?

Luke, where are you?

Luke!

Lucas, what are you doing?

Oh, you won't?

No, you are way too young

to be drinking. Give me that.

Oh, this?

Yes, that.

Give it to me.

Lucas, stop!

What has gotten into you?

One time me and Garrett

drank a whole bottle.

He puked so bad.

He can't hold his liquor

like me.

Wow, I'm super impressed, okay?

Now, give it.

Lucas, I'm so serious right now.

Don't.

Thank you.

Oh, my god.

Pardon me.

You forgot to shut

the door, doofus.

I can't believe I'm doing this.

Hey, no, sorry, I can't...

I can't talk right now.

He just opened

a bottle of champagne.

Uh-uh, no, that is

not an invitation.

Look, um, listen, I don't think

tonight's gonna to work out.

A chance to what?

Make things harder

than they already are?

What?

Okay, you know what? That was a low

blow, and I'm gonna hang up now.

Busted.

Me? What about you, mister?

Well, I won't tell if you don't.

Okay, deal.

You know, drinking

won't impress me, okay?

I already think

you're pretty cool.

Let's, uh... let's get

some food into you, hey?

Pepperoni or Hawaiian?

Anything but mushrooms.

Why don't you start the...

Whoa, calm down.

Have another drink.

Lerner residence.

Hello?

Hello?

Help! Somebody help me!

Come on, come on!

Who was it?

No one.

Why are you dating Ricky?

He's such a jerk.

I'm sorry. I didn't

mean it like that.

How did you mean it?

It's just like first Jeremy

and now Ricky.

You could choose

any guy in the world,

and you're choosing these

guys who treat you like sh*t.

Luke...

First off, you're sweet,

but second, there's actually a

really wonderful side to Ricky.

And my move's been really

tough on us, so be nice.

Plus, you're drunk, kiddo.

I am not drunk

and I am not a kiddo.

You're 12.

Thirteen in a few weeks.

I'm mature for my age.

I know.

If I were your age,

I'd date you.

Really?

Sh*t! I forgot to order

the pizza.

God, Luke, you didn't tell me

you ordered something.

I didn't.

Hi. Sorry,

we didn't order that.
