"Sure," she replied, not moving.

"Why are you so desperate for him to notice?" he akes runninghis hnad through her hair again

"That's a stupid question," she replied her voice even.

he chuckled, " why is it stupid?"

"Because I like him. and it's nice to be noticed if you're planning on being involved with the guy." she replied. That should have been obvious.

his grin gew, " I'm a guy and we're involved."

"We have a mutual understanding. Friends with benefits are different than other relationships."

he nodded still stroking her hair, " yeah that is differant." he thought about the two gilrs he was trying to woo, " ok so I helped you with teacher boy so can you give me a few tips on what I may be doing wrong?" he asked, " though my tacktics have served me well up to this point."

Jaimie thought for a moment. "Hmm.. Well, I'd suggest cleaning up your act with Paige. She's like princess prude, so you're really going to have to work hard to get anything from her. And then the new girl, Brook or whatever, I don't know. She's just a weird one."

"A princess Prude?" he asked

"You're going to be lucky if she lets you hold her hand," Jaimie clarified.

he made a face as he thought about that. he was lucky, he guessed, that he had jaimie then, " ok....so what exactly do you mena by working hard?"

"You'll have to be on your best behavior. No swearing, no wandering hands, nothing. Like, perfect child behavior. And you'll have to be polite and gentlemanly to her."

he grunted, " perfect? really? Damn." he whined, " ok you have to have info on getting to brooklyne."

"Okay, fine," she sighed. "For now I would just suggest persistance."
