The next morning, Ross woke up to his phone ringing. "Hello" he says sleepily. "Hey Sleepy Head, whatcha doin'?" Laura asks happily. "Duh, I'm sleeping!" Ross says. "Wow, kinda grumpy aren't we?" Laura says teasingly. "Sorry, Beautiful! I'm not grumpy anymore." Ross says. "I thought I would come pick you up for a change!" she says smiling. "What?! You don't have to do that!" Ross says. "Awww but I want to, Blondie! You pick me up all the time!" she says. "But your Jeep is hot pink!" he says. "So!! It'll match those boxers you wear all the time!" she says giggling. "If it will make you happy, you can pick me up!" he says, giving in. "Yay! I'll see you in a little bit! I love you, Blondie!" she says happily. Ross grins because he loves hearing her so happy. "I love you more, Beautiful!" he says. They hang up.

Ross gets out of bed, showers, gets dressed, eats & brushes his teeth. "Are you headed to pick up Laura?" Stormie asks. "No ma'am! She called and wants to pick me up instead." he says smiling. "She's such a sweet girl!" Stormie says. "The best!" Ross says lovingly. Right then someone knocks. "I'll get it!" Stormie says opening the door. "Hey Laura, how are you?" Stormie asks. "I'm fine thank you! How about you?" Laura asks. "I'm great! Please come in! Ross just went to get his things!" Stormie says stepping aside. "Thank you!" Laura says smiling, coming inside. "Good morning, Beautiful!" Ross says coming down the stairs. "Good morning, Blondie!" Laura says smiling. "You look beautiful like always!" he says kissing her. They kiss until they hear someone clear their throat delicately. They pull away blushing like crazy. "Well... Uh....Gotta go now bye!" Ross says pulling Laura out the door, but not before he heard his mom giggle.

"I thought the most embarrassing thing to happen today would be me riding in your pink mobile! Boy was I wrong! I can't believe we forgot my mom was standing right there!" Ross says laughing. "Yeah that was really embarrassing! As for my jeep, if you can wear bright pink boxers all the time, then you can ride in my jeep! Besides tough guys do pink!" she says flexing her non-exsistent muscles, laughing. He laughs. "Oh so you think I'm a tough guy,huh?" he asks wiggling his eyebrows. "I said no such thing!I said tough guys do pink!" she says giggling. "But you are pretty tough and muscular!" she says admiring him. He smiles at her. They pull up at school,park, and get out. They go in and meet everyone at the lockers.

"Hey guys!" Laura says as she hugs everyone. "I was wondering, do y'all wanna have a girls night at my house tomorrow night?" Tiffany asks. "Awww why can't guys come too?" Luke asks pouting. "Awww I'll see you Saturday!" Tiffany says kissing him. "I can't wait!" he says smiling when they pull away. "You're so cute, Blue Eyes! I love you!" she says hugging him. "You're not so bad yourself, Precious! I love you too!" he says hugging her a little tighter. "Yes, Tiff staying at your house sounds fun!" Rydel says excitedly. "Girl Time!" Kaitlyn says. The girls all agree to go to Tiffany's house. "OK that's settled!" Tiffany says happily. The bell rings and they go to class.

Svenja & Shawn are sitting in Life Skills class talking when the teacher comes in. She goes to the front of the room and claps her hands. After everyone quiets down she talks. "OK class we have a project that will be due next Friday. You will pick partners and I will give you a budget. You will come up with something to spend your budget on. You will be responsible for coming up with ways to spend your budget without going over. Pick your partners and decide what you want to spend your budget on. I will come around and hand out paper with the amount of your budget on it." Ms. McCary says. As soon as she goes to her desk Shawn turns toward Svenja and smiles. "Wanna be my partner?" he asks. "Of course I do!" Svenja says. Everyone partners up. "Now that everyone has a partner, I'll pass out the budgets. You can have the rest of class to talk about what you wanna spend your budget on." Ms. McCary says as she passes out the papers.
