LANA: Are you happy now?JESS: Let it go, Lana.
LANA: Don't avoid the question, Mariano.
JESS: Oh, we're using last names now, Kuznetsova?
LANA KUZNETSOVA is a simple girl. She loves food (she thinks picky eaters should grow up), she likes spending her free time after school reading trashy magazines whilst drinking a nice dark Americano, listening to No Doubt, she also likes chatting shit about people in her Super Special Secret Journal. That's it. Now obviously she likes more than those 3 things, but as previously mentioned, she's a simple girl! However, like every teenage girl, she has dislikes. Very strong dislikes, such as; sports, working minimum wage (Lana has dedicated many pages in her journal to the American Government for that one!), and Jess Mariano.Although, the last one is a complicated topic for Lana. He's like minimum wage: stupid and annoying.
LANA KUZNETSOVA and JESS MARIANO have history. Whether the history is their shared love for No Doubt or the fact that they were once sharing another kind of love, that's undecided. They had once been best friends (even if Jess never admitted it) and did pretty much everything together. Keyword: once. You see, Lana Kuznetsova hasn't heard from Jess Mariano for around 4(?) months now, and quite frankly, she was sick of it. How could her best friend leave her after messing with her mind, resulting in her not being able to focus on another guy without thinking about him? It was a problem. A problem so big, Lana was not afraid of tracking him down, then strutting up to him and giving him a smack he so rightly deserved.
