keep in contact with Garrison.

And... I can't see any difference...

why I couldn't keep in contact with him.

Oh!

Well, I guess Kev

Bro's parents bought, like...

some crazy mansion in Tennessee.

It's got, like, a creek, train tracks.

His parents are gonna move out there

towards the end of the year...

and I think Kevin might go with 'em

after he graduates.

He might go.

- You know, I'll... I'll definitely

be bummed when he goes...

Even if I go with him, 'cause I know

he's not gonna live here anymore.

And, you know, most... Almost all my teenage

years have been spent with this kid, so...

- You know, and there's this

kind of part about Kevin...

I'm not really sure what's going on.

But... You know, regardless, I love him.

I'm not happy with you today...

Mr. Garrison.

Well, we were gonna have

black beans and rice for dinner, but...

Garrison had a date with Kristen,

so he ditched me.

- You better tell her I said, "I don't care."

- No!

- Tell her.

- Why?

Because I'm just gonna keep deleting

her Facebook wall posts.

- Why?

- I'm sick of her.

- Why?

- She's ruining my life.

Why? You have no good reason.

I just don't like her.

- She's short.

- That's the only reason I like her.

No, I'm just kidding. That's just a joke.

It's not funny.

And... she's sassy,

and I don't like it.

What's Arnold

Schwarzenegger's favorite food?

What?

"Get to the chopper!"

So, what do you really like about Kristen?

Okay. She's attractive.

You're attracted to

her because she's attractive.

- Got it. - No, I wasn't done, idiot.

I have, like, five fingers.

All right. So... I just got my first car.

Went and checked it out,

and it was perfect.

Some old guy owned it.

It's a 1990 Chevy Celebrity Wagon.

And it was in a garage its whole life.

It has 68,000 miles on it.

The inside's perfect. The outside's clean,

so I'm, like, beyond happy.

1,500 bucks.

Definitely worth saving up for.

So, I figured since I got a new car,

I'd go pick Kristen up...

and take her out to the lake.

Go hang out for a while.

I don't feel like a little kid anymore.

Now that I have, like, a car...

and, like, more of a job

doing skate lessons...

Now I think, you know,

I'm more ready for a relationship.

'Cause, like, I think, like,

past relationships I've had...

were kind of, like, less

exciting and stuff.

Just 'cause I didn't have a car.

If I wanted to hang out with them,

I had to, like, ride my bike there.

And if I got there, we had to stay

wherever we were basically...

unless we walked.

So now we can go anywhere.

I could drive us to the Bahamas.

What's Arnold Schwarzenegger's...

Favorite hamburger?

- "Get in the chopper!"

- "Get to the chopper!"

Dumbest line ever.

So... I was thinking...

earlier that... I would ask you

if you would go on a date with me.

Yeah.

- Promise?

- Promise.

Yes.

- So really?

- Really.

- Valentine's Day.

- Wait, when's that?

When is that? I don't know. I'm not...

Kristen said I'm not allowed to do anything.

Said to keep... She said to keep it open...

'cause she's doing something.

Or I don't know. She

said she can't tell me.

But I shouldn't do anything that day.

Okay, so she's planning

to do something for you.

Um, I don't know what I'll get her.

I just don't want it to be too clich, like

a box of chocolates and, like, a flower.

'Cause I've done that, and it's

just not very cool.

I think it's pretty cool. I'd be flattered.

So is that what you want

for Valentine's from me?

- That'd be nice.

- Okay.

I think that I will always...

have some sort of feelings for Garrison.

I think that that's sort

of, like, inevitable...

because he's my best friend...

and everything really happens for a reason.

So... I don't know.

I think that I would rather...

have him as a friend than not at all.

So...

Yeah. He's a good guy.

#Baby, I love you #

# Yes, I love you so much, baby #

#I really, really love you #

- #Because I love you #

- #Oh-oh #

# Yes, I think a lot about you #

#Can't live my life without you #

#A thousand times a day #

#I'll be thinking of you #

#Oh, in a million ways #

# That's how much I love ya #

#Somehow I will repay you

for all the love #

#Oh, you've given me #

- #Ohl #

- #Baby #

# There's no one like you #

# There's no one quite like you #

# That's why I need you #

- #Need you #

- #Say you'll never go #

#Say you're never gonna leave me #

#If you do, I'll be so lonely #

# With you by my side #

#I know I can make it #

#Our love will survive #

#Nothing's gonna shake it #

#I get a glow inside #

#Knowing you love me #

#Just as I love you #

# Whoa! #

# Yeah! ##

Like, recently we found out

that we lost our house.

So, like... We have a few options...

but I guess Pappa and my dad

will probably end up moving to Tennessee...

and then, um...

Well...

Like, I'll figure out a place to be.

I'll either move in with

my oma and my aunt.

Or, like, move in with

Garrison or something.

We met bowling.

Um, you know,

I had grease all over my hands.

She had all the napkins.

So I said, "Hey, Napkin Lady,

get me some napkins."

And I said, "I don't work here."

And then I said, "You obviously look

the way you do because you work here."

And I said, "I'm wearing this uniform

because my great-grandma died in it."

Long story short, I didn't have greasy hands

at one point, and then... I found love.

No, I love Skye because...

- she makes me happy and...

- Good one.

She knows how to talk to me.

- Good one.

- And she does things for me all the time.

- Keep going.

- And, um, I smile when I think of her.

And my stomach feels funny.

And... she does this a lot, and I like it.

And I could go on.

I have a book written about it.

What about Jesus?

Oh, and Skye loves Jesus, and I love Jesus.

- Mmm.

- So together we both love Jesus.

- You're not supposed to eat milky things.

- Probably not supposed to eat that at all.

- What if I get sick?

- Uh, then...

Did you make a wish at least?

No. I wish that this would

be out of my mouth.

Did you hear that

Kris and Garrison broke up?

Like, 'cause I didn't know they broke up...

- until I checked Facebook after church, but...

- Yeah.

When they, like, came

to church that night...

- they seemed...

- Perfectly fine?

Like they... Yeah. Like

they were dating still.

Anyways... So...

then, like, a bunch of people

from church were just like...

like, "It would be beneficial

if you two broke up."

How is that beneficial though?

- I don't know. That's the way the church rolls.

- That's weird.

I know. They-They try and get anybody

to break up, if they can.

Destroy 'em.

It's what I did to my Barbies.

You know, she's kind of stepped away

from the church.

Me being a somebody

who kind of looks after Garrison...

To me, I would want him

to be in a relationship with a girl...

that loved the Lord first,

most importantly.

And if that's... If there was any goal

that I would have for Garrison...
