Jenna-

As our lips meld together he feels my cuts through my sleeves.

He pulls away away with a confused look.

"Show me."

"Jared I..."

"Show me please I won't be mad."

Tears start streaming down my face as I roll up my sleeves exposing the 12 cuts on each arm.

"Why?"

"Jared...."

"Was it because of me and the girl being together?"

"Jared No well."

"I'm so sorry." He says and engulfs me in a large hug.

"It's not your fault Jared."

But as my shoulder becomes increasingly wet with tears I realize how much he cares about me.

"Jared don't cry."

I wipe away the tears from his face.

"Jenna you know how amazing you are?"

"I'm not amazing." I mumble.

"Yes, yes you are. Have you heard yourself sing? You can act, ice skate, your the kindest and most generous person I ever met and your so beautiful and I love everything about you."

"Stop lying to me."

"I'm not lying you are amazing. Your perfect inside and out and you should know it."

"Jared. You are amazing." I say kissing him softly.

"Not as amazing as you are."

"Stop it."

"Stop what?" He asks innocently.

"Stop, being so perfect."

I say kissing him softly.

"Not as perfect as you."

"Stop your just so..."

"So what?"

"Perfect." I mumble before kissing him.

"Wait." I stop.

"What?"

"What is this?"

"What is what."

"Us."

"Oh well I don't know what do you want?"

I giggle, "Us I guess."

"Finally!"

I giggle again, "I'm sorry."

"It's OK I understand where your coming from..

"You do now?"

"Yeah, well I've never been in that situation but I understand that you wouldn't want things so awkward."

"Exactly although the tension would be perfect for our characters you know since something is obviously gonna happen between them."

"How can you tell?"

"Well the script sometimes says for Henry to look lovingly at Melody soooo It's just a prediction."

"Your so smart."

"No I'm not."

"Don't lie we all saw your grades. All A's since first grade."

"What? I needed to ensure I would get into Julliard when I grow up."
