DINER
Lyla and Dakota are sitting at a table.
Dakota: So you know this guy?
Lyla: Yeah like when I was 12.
Dakota: And you're going to that Japanese restaurant.
Tyre is sitting in a booth across the diner, looking towards them, clearly jealous
Lyla: Yeah, I guess.
Dakota: Why can't he just come to the school?
Lyla: Why are you making such a big deal out of this?
Dakota: Because it's annoying is why I'm making a such a big deal out of it. Annoying that your dad's sending you on a date with some collage boy and it's annoying that you do whatever your dad wants to even through he knows you're gay.
Lyla: One; it's not a date and two; you're jealous.
Dakota takes a bite of her ice cream giving her a look
Lyla: If you don't want me to go, I won't. Just tell me.
Dakota: No, it's fine. It's fine. You can go.
Lyla flips her hair over her shoulder and smiles at her.
Hey Lyla
She waves at some of her friends at a nearby table.
Lyla: I got to go. I'm being rude. You wanna say hi?
Dakota: I'm good
Lyla: I'll be right back
She pecks her on the lips and stands up, walking away sitting down at her friends table. Tyre stands up and approaches Dakota's table
Tyre: So explain to me how I'm seeing what I'm seeing. After everything that happened to you because of her.
She plops down in the chair beside Dakota who looks at her confused
Dakota: I love her, Tyre
Tyre rolls her eyes.
Tyre: You love her.
Dakota: That's all he explanation you need. I mean it's not like you knew how much of a crush I've always had on her.
Tyre: That's just......that's great. And you know what, Lovebug? You can get away with anything when you're Lyla Garrity, it seems.
Lyla walks back up looking between them both, clearly jealous. Tyre smirks.
Lyla: Hey Tyre
Tyre: Hi Lyla.
Lyla: Can I get my seat back?
Tyre: Oh, no problem.
She stands up while Lyla takes the seat.
Tyre: So this receptionist-secretary job that's available at your dad's dealership......how much typing is required?
Lyla: I don't know, I'm.......
Tyre: What about benefits?
Lyla: I don't know, Tyre. I'm really not sure what my dad's looking for.
Dakota looks uncomfortable, moving her eyes between both girls.
Tyre: He might be looking for my mom.
Dakota swirls her straw through her milkshake still uncomfortable.
DAY
Dakota: Do a favor. Turn right here
Landry: Where at?
Dakota is riding in Landry's car with Matt in the backseat.
Dakota: Turn right here. Here. Here. Turn right.
Matt: You mind telling us where the hell we going?
Landry turns the steering wheel to the right
Dakota: I just need to take a look at something
She pulls her hood over her head.
Landy: Whoa, easy, unbomber......girl. What's going on?
Dakota: All right. All right, slow down.
The car slowly comes to a stop in front of the restaurant.
Dakota: Through that window over there.
Matt and Landry looks towards the window seeing Lyla inside with the collage boy
Matt: Is that Lyla?
Landry: Who's that dude she's with?
Dakota: Now is that a family friend or a date?
Landy: Well considering Lyla's gay like you, I'm guessing not considering he has a pee-pee like me and Matt have pee-pees
Matt: Why don't you go in there and find out?
Dakota: Does that look like she's helping him with a paper?
Landry: Stalking is a serious crime and Landry's too good looking for jail.
Matt: Will you stop referring to yourself like that?
Dakota: I'm not stalking.
Matt: Spying then.
Dakota: Just taking a little look. Please leave.
As the car begins slowly pulling away, Matt sticks his head out the window and waves
Matt: HEY LYLA!!
Landry: HOWDY PARTNER!!
He honks the horn
Dakota: Faster. Move faster.
Landry: HI LYLA!!
Dakota: Shut up and drive faster
Lyla looks out the window at the back of the car but sees Dakota's hand out the window.
FRIDAY-AFTER THE GAME
Lyla walks out of her house down the driveway where Dakota walks up to her.
Dakota: Guess congrats on the big win tonight for us.
Lyla: How are you?
Dakota: Fine. You never told me how your........you know, your lunch date went.
Lyla: I think you know, Kota.
Dakota chuckles tucking her hair behind her ears.
Dakota: Busted. I was jealous. Should I be?
Lyla: No.
She grabs her hands pulling her closer and cups her face in her hands pressing their lips together. Dakota slowly moves her lips passionately against hers.
Lyla: You're beautiful. Smare. Talented. You got your whole future already mapped out.
They lean their foreheads together, eyes closed as Lyla presses her lips to her forehead
Lyla: I love you
Dakota: I love you
Season 2, Dakota's gonna go through a lot of pain.
