The Last Song Page #3

- Absolutely not.

We're flying three kites today.

All of us.

You're dreaming, Dad.

Yeah. I'd like to report some

sea turtle eggs outside of my house.

Sure.

- What?

- You said "outside my house".

I like that.

Did you go to, like,

a nice guy school or something?

What's with all your smiling lately?

Seriously, it's creepy.

Is my...? Is my smile creepy?

Well, I don't know. Let's see it.

I'm doing it.

Kind of, but I think

you need to show teeth.

My grandmother used

to drive one of those.

- She did?

- Yeah.

Barely.

Is that milkshake girl?

You should go spill that soda on her.

Hey.

Hi. Nice look.

I almost didn't recognize you

with your shirt on.

I'm sorry. I was stupid.

- Yeah.

- It must have been the game.

I get a little... jacked up.

You know, I laid awake that night,

just remembering it.

Felt like a jerk for hours.

I seriously doubt that happened.

You're wrong.

I'll see you around.

I hope so.

What should I call you

when that happens?

- Ronnie.

- Ronnie.

Bye, Ronnie.

Bye.

You know who her father is, right?

Yeah. So?

Just checking.

Hey, what's up? Did the aquarium call?

- I don't know.

- Oh, crap.

Hey! Hey!

Hey!

Hey.

- What are you doing here?

- What are you doing here?

- I asked you first.

- I'm here to mark a turtle nest.

You work for the aquarium?

I thought you were a mechanic.

- I don't work there. I volunteer there.

- I called yesterday.

- Is everything OK?

- No, everything's not OK.

- There were raccoons here all night.

- Really?

- Where are they now?

- I scared them away.

Yeah, I'm not surprised.

I'm a little scared.

That's really funny.

You know, I'd like to see

you sleep out here all night...

while it's freezing with a baseball bat

in your hand and raccoons terrorize you.

- You really slept out here all night?

- No.

My hair looks like this all by itself.

I wasn't gonna mention

the hair, but...

This all your creation?

- Do you have a problem with it?

- Not really.

Other than the fact

that when the eggs hatch,

turtles won't be able

to get back to the sea, so...

they'll starve and die.

Hey.

Blaze.

Blaze, what's wrong?

I saw how you looked at him.

At Marcus? I saw you.

- What are you talking about?

- I love him, OK?

- So stay away.

- I am not interested...

You're lying!

I watched you flirt with him.

The guy's a creep.

He was the one coming on to me.

Why would you wanna be

with someone like that anyways?

Excuse me.

- What?

- I'm sorry. I have to check your purse.

Fine.

I did not take that.

I didn't take...

You're gonna have to come with me.

- Mom's gonna flip out.

- Shut up. OK, Jonah?

Ronnie, don't talk

to your brother like that.
