Better Luck Tomorrow Page #5

Go get 'em.

All right, sweetie,

here are the rules.

No kissing,

and I always lead.

Come on, sweetie.

How was it?

How was it?

Oh, you bad, bad boy.

That is so disgusting, man.

Come on, man.

Actually, it was...

incredible.

I just couldn't believe

I had finally done it.

It was such a relief.

I had prayed every day

up until that moment

that I would have sex

before I died.

Thank you.

Dude, man, wasn't

she awesome?

Wasn't she awesome, man?

Mmm...

Dude, what the f***?

Here you go.

F***! God damn it!

Your little friend

pulled a gun on me.

Calm down!

Shut up, Virg!

F*** you.

Look, this is more money

than we owe you.

F*** all of you.

What are you doing, Virg?

You crazy?

She said she wanted

to play rough.

You want to play f***ing rough?!

Stop it! Put the gun down!

I want to play rough.

Virgil, put the gun down.

Put the gun down.

Virgil, put the gun down.

What do you think now, hotshot?

Virg, put the gun down.

Get the f*** off me.

The morning after

I lost my virginity,

we won the national title.

I don't sell that sh*t no more.

That's cool.

How have you been?

Haven't seen you

since the... Formal.

Right.

Hey, by the way,

I never got a chance

to thank you

for taking Stephanie.

She said she had the best time.

Maybe you can take her

to all the school functions.

You should try it.

You might like it.

It's all a superficial,

bullshit waste of time.

Yeah, you mentioned that.

I have a proposition for you.

Actually, for you

and your buddies.

Look, that's all in the past.

Listen, you guys are definitely

going to like this.

It's too sweet.

No, thanks.

Well, give me

the other guys' digits.

I thought we were friends.

That has nothing

to do with this.

There's going to be

a lot of money involved.

You already got all

the money you need.

Change.

I don't give a sh*t

about the cash.

It's what

we've been talking about.

It's time to break the cycle.

What?

Listen, this is going to better

everyone involved.

Just trust me.

Ben, did he tell you

what this is all about?

No.

F***in' rich boy.

Let's talk outside.

Steve,

this is Virgil...

Hey.

...and Han.

David, right?

Daric.

Sorry.

How's your stroke?

My stroke?

You guys want

something to drink?

Yeah, I'll take a beer.

Beer.

Okay.

Have a seat.

I'll be right back.

What's up with that guy?

Stroke?

Hey, by the way, congrats

on winning the Nationals.

Thank you.

What happened to you guys?

Too many freshmen.

Their f***in' brains froze

in the semis.

What are you going to do?

The streak had to end sometime.

So, why are we here?

You're looking at it.

What?

We do my parents' house.

Yo, that's f***ed up.

Why?

It's none of your f***in' business.

Okay.

Let's go, guys.

Everyone needs a wake-up call.

I love them.

That's why I'm doing this.

"I love them.

That's why I'm doing this."

That dude's f***ed up.

Let's do it.

Let's f***in' do it.

No.

No. We're not gonna rob anyone.

Everyone needs a wake-up call.

That's what he said, right?

Let's f***in'

give it to him.

Look, that sh*t is just weird.

Oh, yeah, it is.

We're gonna play along

for a while,

and then we're gonna teach

that f***er

a lesson.

Virg, don't you see the way

that guy talks to you?

That dude doesn't even think

you're on the same level.

Think about it.

What about you, Han?

That rich motherf***er wants

to punish his own family?

Why?

Because Mommy and Daddy won't

pay enough attention to him?

And you.

He thinks

you're f***in' dickless.

No? Well, why else

would he let you take

his girlfriend to the formal?

No. No!

We'll just rough 'em up

a little bit.

Mostly... we'll scare

the sh*t out of him.

Dude, this is brilliant.

After we f***in'

beat the sh*t out of him,

we could turn him in

to the cops

for conspiring to rob

his own family.

Exactly.

Oh, yeah!

Ooh.

Come on, guys.

I don't know.

Come on!

Let's do it!

Yeah.

It'll be fun.

All right, man,

I'm just doing this

so you don't f***

this up, all right?

Yeah.

Yeah!

No, I can't.

This'll be our blueprint.

Let's start on page three.

By the way,

I'm going to need a gun.

I know. I'm working on it.

Can I get one of those

semiautomatics?

It'll cost you.

Just take it out of my share.

No. We'll need the

money up front.

All right.

Just let me know how much.

No problem.

Steve was meticulous.

He had mapped out each of

our paths for the robbery.

He made us do it

over and over

until he felt we got it.

I just don't know what

Stephanie found so attractive.

So...

At all!

...Han, you think

you can break in?

F***, yeah.

That's it.

I can't handle it anymore.

I ain't going

to the meeting tomorrow.

Shut up!

Look, we all have to do it,

or it'll just f*** it all up.

Well, I still ain't going!

Dude, why?

'Cause Chrissy's throwin'

a party tomorrow.

Why don't we just

invite him to come?

He's the one who said

we should get to know

each other.

Whatever.

You think he'll show?

Who cares, man?

At least we don't have to sit

through all that bullshit.

I can't wait till

this is all over.

You watch.

It'll all be worth it.

Be right back.

Hey, Steph.

Hey, Ben.

Where's Steve?

I don't know.

He told me to meet him here.

He's on time as usual.

Hey.

Whoa. Is it real?

Just got it done this morning.

What does it mean?

It's my Chinese name.

Why you guys hiding out

from everyone?

Hey.

Hey. Hello.

Hey.

Yo, D-Rock!

Is that a new tattoo?

Yeah.

You gonna show me?

Later.

When did you get it?

This morning.

You all right?

Hey, Steph.

What up, man?

Hi.

What up, dude?

So this is where

the Asians hang out.

Yup. Library was closed.

Hey, you're a funny guy.

For an Oriental.

He's been drinking.

Hey, Daric, where you going

to go to college

next year, man?

I just turned in

my apps last month.

What about you?

Ah, it'll be

an Ivy League for sure.

I don't know which yet.

You already got in?

Yeah, of course.

You'll have to excuse Steve.

He gets cocky when he's drunk.

Only when he's drunk?

Excuse me, guys.

Too much testosterone.

Did I say something?

So, this is like

the "I love Stephanie" fan club.

You know, Daric,

you're a pretty cool guy.

I can't believe Steph thought

you were a stalker or something.

Yo, what'd you think

of her friend?

What friend?

The one she brought

to mini golf.

All right.

Yeah. Isn't Steph the best?

You want a drink?

Yeah,

whatever you get.

All right.

Ben?

I'm good.

Thanks, D-Rock.

Anytime, Stevie-boy.

Why you hang out

with him, Ben?

He's got something up his ass

all the time.

He's all right.

Yo... Steph's the one.

Steph's the one.

You were right.

She deserves to be treated better.

I'm going

to treat her better.

I owe it all to you, man.

Thank you.

Steve, you're wasted.

Thanks, man.

Okay. You're welcome.

You're welcome.

All right.

I'll be right back.

Okay.

All right.

Thank you.

At that point,

by the look in Daric's eyes,

I knew it was on.

It was New Year's Eve.

Jesus said we could use
