Song: Stupid With Love - Mean Girls (the Broadway Musical)

Tommy boy sits on his bed, looking through his old picture book when he comes upon a picture of a boy he once knew.

The boy's name was Alex.

He starts singing;

When I was five, I fell in love
It didn't last

He rolls his eyes, turning the page as he continues.

He ran from me
Literally ran from me
And being Kenyan, he ran fast

He sees another boy, who he had also known. His name was Jake.

He continues singing;

When I was ten, in love again
This Peace Corps guy
I waited hours
Inside his tent with flowers
Which made him laugh
Which made me cry

He closes the book, rolling his eyes again.

By thirteen I gave up trying
I decided I would be a mathematician
'Cause math is real
I memorized a lot of pi
Because addition and subtraction and division
Would never make me feel
So stupid with love

He turns around to him friends. It was lunch time, and they were talking about his crush.

Like I didn't get it
I didn't get it, somehow
Smart with math but stupid with love
I didn't get it
I didn't get it
Till now

Tommy boy was sitting at his desk, working on a Math problem, when his crush, Finch Cortes, turns around.

Finch sat at the desk in front of Tommy.

"Do you have an eraser?" Finch asks Tommy boy, who grins, happy that he's speaking to him.

"I would love to" Tommy boy answers, handing Finch his pencil. Finch smiles, turning around and using the eraser, before handing it back to Tommy boy.

Tommy boy mentally squeals, starting to sing again. (Remember, nobody notices because it's Musical Theatre logic lol.)

So thank you, math, for being there
To bring me joy
And thank you, math
'Cause now you've brought me
This cute boy!

He points to Finch, as Finch turns around again.

"Is it two?" Finch asks Tommy boy, who grins at him again. He checks his paper.

"Yes!" He answers. Finch smiles at his enthusiasm, pumping his fists in the air as he goes to write it down.

Tommy boy has to stop himself from fainting as he starts singing again, blushing hard.

He's like someone from TV
He's like that guy who gives out roses to those women
His clothes, his grooming

He points to Finch's clothes.

And he's a foot away from me
With swoopy hair and shiny eyes that I could swim in
He is live and in the room

Tommy boy turns to face his friends again on the roof.

Henry, Buttons, Jack, and Davey watch him, as he continues to sing, blushing brighter than their friend Albert's hair.

And I'm
Stupid with love

He throws his arms down in defeat, before crossing them, annoyed.

I wanna get it
I wanna get it,

He looks determined for a minute, before thinking.

but how?
Smart with math but stupid with love
I wanna get it
I didn't get it
Till now

Tommy boy sits in Math class again, as his teacher asks a question.

"Two over zero is undefined" Tommy boy and Finch answer are the same time.

"Jinx" Finch tells Tommy boy, as Tommy boy looks at him, astonished.

On the roof, he tells his friends all about what happened, still blushing madly.

I'm astounded and non-plussed
I am filled with calcu-lust

The boys laugh at his use of Math related terms.

He lowers his voice a bit, blushing more as he continues.

Does this guy work out? He must!
All sweaty at the gym

He turns very red when he says the last part, as the other boys chuckle at him.

Could that image be more hot?
Let me just enjoy that thought
School was rough but now it's not

Tommy boy looks over the roof, looking like a love-sick puppy.

Jack, Davey, Henry, and Buttons notice that Finch, Hotshot, Spot, Ace, Race, Albert, and Smokes come on the roof.

Tommy boy continues.

'Cause now there's him
It's all so simple

He does a little spin, as he lets out a little squeal. Spot nudges Finch, smirking. Finch smiles, continuing to watch Tommy boy.

Stupid with love
But I can get it
Watch this boy self-educate
I learned math so I can learn love

He smiles to himself, determined, as Finch goes over to him. Tommy boy's back was still turned to him, as he continues to look over the roof.

You wanna bet it?
That I can get it?

He points to himself, as if proving that he could do it.

Just wait
Just wait
Just wait!

He finishes.

He turns around, trying to go sit down, when he bumps into Finch, who pulls him into a kiss.

All of the other boys start cheering, as Tommy boy blushes a deep crimson red, and Finch smirks.

They pull away after a minute, as Tommy boy looks at the ground, fiddling with his shirt.

"How much of that did you hear?" Tommy boy whispers. Finch smirks at him.

"Enough to know that you feel the same way towards me as I do towards you" Finch answers, and Tommy boy grins.

Finch puts two fingers under Tommy boy's chin, tilting his head up a bit, and looking into Tommy boy's eyes.

Finch kisses his forehead, before pulling Tommy boy into a hug.

Tommy boy grins to himself, nuzzling his face into Finch's shirt.

He hears a click, and feels Finch look up, trying to figure out what that was.

Tommy boy makes a motion with one of his hands to Jack. This motion was their secret way of saying 'send that to me later'. Jack nods in response.

Tommy boy smiles again, as he hums softly to himself.
I can get it...
