Dakota and Lyla are sitting in Lyla's car. Their hands laced together, Lyla rubs circles over Dakota's knuckles before raising her hand to her lips kissing it.
Dakota: I'm sorry. I didn't want to snap like that. It's just.......we haven't seen him in two years. Only postcards on Birthdays and holidays, that's it. I know he's my dad but I----
Lyla: It's okay.
Dakota: I still remember the look he had when I told him I was gay. He looked at his own daughter like I was nothing
Lyla: It's okay. I don't know why I hide it from my parents for as long as I did
Dakota: You're lucky your parents accepted you. I just wanted my dad to do the same with me.
Lyla: I know you think it's a total girl think but I've always had this vision of my wedding. I'd be 25. There'd be this huge reception and dancing and toasts.
Dakota: I've never envisioned my wedding and I'm a girl. You've seen me dance
Lyla: No. I really haven't. What I'm talking about has nothing to do with you, Kota. '
Dakota: If you're being honest, just----
Lyla: No. It's just I haven't been applied to a college yet and you haven't even said whether which one you're going to----
Dakota: You think I'm not going to college?
Lyla: I know you are.
Dakota: I didn't lose my brain. I'm gonna go to college. I'm gonna leave this backwards thinking stupid ass town in the dust. I'm gonna make something of my life. We'll have friends. A big house and a picket fence. Couple of puppies and that whole thing you dream about.
Lyla: Kota...
Dakota: Getting married's not gonna change that.
Lyla: Sounds like you're envisioned more then just a wedding.
Dakota: Maybe I have.
Lyla: I just don't want to rush into anything and make a mistake
Dakota looks at her slightly hurt at those words
Dakota: Message received, Lyla. Loud and clear.
FOOTBALL GAME
Billy: Hey Tim, Kota. Hey!
He reaches grabbing both the twins, Tim is in his football gear while Dakota is wearing her cheerleading outfit.
Tim: What are you doing?
Dakota: What's going on?
Billy: I need an extra ticket.
Dakota: Too bad, Billy
Tim: The game's about to start. You know that
Billy: Hey. Hey.
They follow his gaze seeing their dad standing on the other side of the fence looking at them.
Billy: Dad's here.
