OLSON HOME

The next morning, in my bedroom, I'm reclining on my bed, drawing in my sketchbook.

My PalmOne Treo phone buzzes on my nightstand. I gently picks it up and looks at it.

Jonny Zuko

I answer my phone. "Hey, Jonny."

"Hey, Violet. I'm outside in my Camaro car." Jonny said on the phone.

"Okay, I'm on my way." I said, hanging up my phone, and puts my phone in my crossbody purse.

I gets up and walks over to my desk table, putting my sketchbook in my top drawer and closes it.

And walks out of my room, closing the door behind me.

*~*~*

JEN'S MILK-O-SHAKE MALT SHOP DINER

Jonny and I are sitting in a booth table across from each other with our milkshakes and plates of waffles.

"The divorce is being finalized. I already signed my divorce paper. Just need Monica to signed hers, and that's it." Jonny said to me.

"What if Monica doesn't sign her divorce paper?" I asked him.

"She will." Jonny said, and becomes worried. "Or she won't to spite me."

"Maybe, Monica needs to calm down." I said to Jonny.

"Yeah, you're right." Jonny said.

"By the way, Violet, I have a small surprise for you." Jonny said.

"Really?" I said to him.

"Yeah, really." Jonny said.

Jonny and I exchange small smiles at each other.

"We're not even divorced yet, and you're already enjoying Violet's company." Monica said to Jonny.

"Monica, it's not Jonny's fault. You can blame me." I said to Monica.

"I am blaming you, Violet. But our friendship is making it hard for me." Monica said to me. And she looks at Jonny. "And as for you, Jonny Zuko, you finally got the girl."

Jonny and Monica exchange slight tense looks at each other and she walks away.

Jonny and I exchange looks at each other.

"I'm not hungry anymore." I said to Jonny, gently putting my fork on the plate.

"Violet?" Jonny said.

"I'll just get a to-go box." I said, gently folding my arms on the table.

Jonny gently puts his fork on his plate. He and I exchange glum looks at each other.

*~*~*

OLSON HOME

After returning back home that afternoon, I'm sitting on the three seat sofa, laying down, humming softly a melody.

A gentle knock is on the door. I stop humming and gets up to my feet and walks up to the door and opens it.

Jonny Zuko is there. "Hi, Violet." He greeted me, and walks inside.

"Hey, Jonny." I greeted him, gently closes the door behind him.

Jonny shows me the Manila envelope. "Me and Monica are officially divorced."

Jonny and I exchange small smiles at each other. He's about to kiss me, but I stop him.

"Before we do anything, we should probably just wait until things settle down." I suggested to him. "I mean, you just got divorced."

"You're right. You're absolutely right." Jonny said. "So, what's else to do?"

"How about homework?" I suggested.

Jonny groans, annoyed.

"I know, I know, doing homework sucks, but you have to keep your grades up." I said.

*~*~*

In the kitchen, Jonny and I are sitting at the table, working on our workbook multiple choice assignments.

"Alright, I'm done." Jonny said.

"I'm almost done." I said to him.

Jonny uses his pencil to gently stroke my hair with a playfully smile. I look at him.

"Do you have to?" I asked him.

"Maybe." Jonny replied with a playfully smile.

Jonny and I exchange soften looks at each other. And we passionately kiss each other.

*~*~*

[Song: U&Me - Alt-J (Baaeur Remix]

Jonny and I slowly walks inside my sunny bedroom, continuing to kiss each other.

He pulls out his leather T-Eagle jacket, along with his short sleeve shirt, revealing his bare chest and tattoos. He pulls off his sneakers.

I pulls off my red bomber jacket and my ankle boots. I pulls my glasses off and gently sets them down on my desk table.

Jonny and I kisses each other, embracing our passionate kiss as it becomes intimate. He gently slips off the top half of my dress, revealing my Natori feathers gray bra.

He gently lifts me up in his arms and slowly walks over to my bed and gently lays me down on it.

Jonny and I stops kissing each other and exchange soften looks at each other and we kiss each other again as I gently runs my hand in his dark brown shaggy fluffy hair, intimately consummating our budding relationship.

[Song ends]

*~*~*

After intimately making love with each other, Jonny and I are shirtless, wearing his boxer briefs and my Natori feathers dark green bra and undies, laying in bed underneath the lavender fluffy bedcover.

The bedcover covering my torso and lower half of my body and his lower half of his body. Jonny and I are facing each other.

"I know you suggested that we shouldn't get together until my divorce settles, but I didn't want to waste it with you." Jonny said to me.

"I know." I said to him.

"You're not like most of the college girls or cheerleaders, basically, you're just you." Jonny said to me, gently cuddling me. "I love you, Violet Olson."

"I love you, Jonny Zuko." I said back to him.

Jonny and I exchange small smiles at each other and we kiss, passionate.

JEN'S MILK-O-SHAKE MALT SHOP DINER

That night, I'm sitting in a booth table with my French vanilla milkshake.

My phone buzzes on the table. I picks it up and looks at it.

Carmen Pepper

Confused, I answer my phone. "Carmen?"

"Hi, Violet." Carmen said on the phone.

"If this is a phone prank or something, I'm not falling for it. Carmen Pepper is dead, now, who the hell is this?" I asked.

"Violet, it's me. This isn't a phone prank. It's Carmen. Carmen Pepper." Carmen reassured me on the phone.

"Tell me something that Carmen Pepper knows?" I asked.

"I painted a canvas painting of the Malphas. I told you about it in the cafeteria." Carmen Pepper told me on the phone.

"Where are you?" I asked.

"At the Clearwater Swimming Hole." Carmen Pepper replied.

*~*~*

CLEARWATER SWIMMING HOLE

That night, I slowly drives up to the swimming hole in my Honda Civic Hatchback car. I gets out and looks a pair of clothes laying on a blanket underneath a lantern.

"Carmen?! Where are you?" I exclaimed.

"I'm right here." Carmen replied, swimming in the swimming hole.

I looks at Carmen as she slowly swims up to the shore and slowly climbs out of the swimming hole, half naked, wearing a bra and undies.

She gently wraps herself up in her blanket. And I gently picks up her clothes.

"Hi, Violet." Carmen greeted me. "We have some things to talk about."

I look at Carmen Pepper, utterly shocked.
