Summer of 8 Page #3

---

Girls are so much sweeter.

Okay, that's bullshit,

and sexist.

- What are you talking about?

Hmm-mmm. Sexist.

What? How is that sexist?

I was trying to be nice.

Anytime you make

a generalization based

on gender, that's sexist.

Argh! Blow me, dyke.

- You f***ing a**hole!

- Oscar!

What... you think

all guys are a**holes, so...

Yeah, I do

because they are, Oscar.

Okay, and is that not,

you know, sexist, Jen?

I mean, okay, I guess

i clearly

don't understand women.

I mean, it's not like

i said chicks are more

manipulative or controlling.

I know you're trying

to be complimentary

but really you're just

putting all of us in a box.

Oh, f***ing, just shoot me

in the face, dude.

Okay.

No. You know what,

okay, hold on.

Is it sexist to say

that men are physically

stronger than women?

Yeah.

No, it's not. It's a fact.

And is it sexist

to say that men are

smarter than women?

No, 'cause you guys

are dumb.

Oh, my god!

And that's a fact too.

- Yeah.

- You've got to go.

Jen is right.

You're an a**hole.

What? Okay, so you

agree with them?

No, actually, I don't.

Doesn't mean we can't

have a civilized

conversation about it.

- Thank you, Jesse.

- Yes.

But you don't agree

with me,

you think it's okay

to put all this in a box?

Jesse?

Okay, okay, ah...

You know what this is?

Mmm-mmm.

Yes.

A molding of Lily's clitoris.

- Oh, wow.

- Oh, my god!

Look at it though.

No, it's a goddess.

You actually

never shock me.

It's a goddess.

That was too far.

Well, that doesn't

shock me either...

It's a goddess.

Shh.

...You f***ing

feminist hippie.

So do you like it?

Yeah.

I love it.

You know that.

I think it's really...

It's beautiful!

Thank you.

Yeah.

So let me ask you.

Why is the goddess beautiful?

What do you mean?

What makes it beautiful?

Uh, well, what are you,

a f***in lawyer

all of a sudden?

No, no, I just...

I just think it's a shame

we're all getting so caught up

in saying and doing

all the right things

that we can't even say

what's beautiful

about something.

Why do I wear her

around my neck?

Why?

Because she is beautiful.

She's calm.

She's wise.

She's gentle.

She's fair, she's nurturing,

she's powerful.

She's mysterious,

she's adventurous,

she's fearless.

She's a protector.

And, yes, she is sweet.

If you think that's sexist,

so be it.

I think it's pretty damn sexy.

So what? A guy can't

be all those things?

Man, if you think that's

what I'm trying to say...

I strive to be

all those things.

These are qualities

i admire.

I think you are

all of those things.

That's why I love you.

So I guess you loved me

for just the other reasons.

Who says I love you.

I need a beer.

Oh, Bobby!

Seriously, goddammit.

Dude, you're not going to

f***ing ruin my buzz today.

You need to

figure your sh*t out.

I don't get it, like...

So we're not going

to the same school.

You and me aren't.

Aiden and I aren't.

- What?

- It's not the same.

It's not.

Ever since the beginning

it's always been

you and Bobby.

It was Jesse and Bobby.

Jesse and Bobby.

It's always been

Jesse and Bobby.

You guys won best couple

in the yearbook,

for Christ's sakes.

- What?

- What?

What?

What?

You and Bobby

got the most votes

for best couple

but miss obed knew

you guys weren't

actually a real couple

so she gave it

to the runner-up.

Oh, my god.

Are you being serious?

Yeah.

Wait a second.

I thought Jesse and Lily

won best couple.

Not exactly.

He's being a bit sensitive,

isn't he?

So we aren't going

to the same school.

None of us are.

But that doesn't mean...

No, no, no, no.

Did you and I win

best couple?

No, we did not.

So why're you telling me?

This a private party?

Let me ask you something.

Why are you taking

this thing so hard?

How am I supposed to take it

when my best friend

tells me he doesn't

wanna hang out anymore?

What... do you think

that's what I'm saying?

Aren't you?

We won best couple.

What?

Apparently,

according to Emily,

you and I

got the most votes

for best couple.

Isn't that something?

Sure, we deserved it.

Jesse and Bobby.

Jesse and Bobby.

Who's better than us?

I think

you might just be the best

"best friend."

So why did you

change your mind?

We would have

an absolute blast

if we went to

school together.

Jesse and Bobby.

I f***ing love

Jesse and Bobby.

It's who I am.

I'm not going

to a different school

'cause I don't want to

hang out anymore.

I'm going

because I gotta know

who Jesse is

without Jesse and Bobby.

I'm gonna go

check on Lily.

Wanna head back?

I'll head over

in a bit.

All right.

Anybody wanna

go on a walk?

Go on a f***ing walk.

Go on a walk.

I don't want to...

Jesus, come on, man.

Fine.

You're, um...

You're going to

Boulder, right?

Mmm-hmm.

It's awesome.

It should be...

Be really fun.

Mmm-hmm.

It's funny,

we haven't really

hung out that much.

What do you mean?

We're always together.

I guess. I mean...

Uh...

I mean,

we're together 'cause

we have the same

friends, you know.

But, we never really...

Talk, or, you know, hang out.

All right,

I'll tell you what?

Let's... let's make up

for that right now.

Okay, uh...

Yeah, sure.

All right.

Well, fire away.

Ask me anything.

Uh...

Fire away.

Okay. Uh...

Did you like high school?

Yes.

I mean, yeah.

I don't know. I...

Maybe. Ask me again

in 10 years.

Okay.

Okay, my turn.

Okay.

Favorite five?

Favorite what?

Favorite five.

The essentials.

Favorite color.

Uh-huh.

Favorite food.

Okay.

Favorite song.

Favorite movie.

Favorite position.

You're just a little

bit crazy, aren't you?

Well, aren't we all?

Well?

Uh...

Okay, all right.

So it's color first, right?

Mmm-hmm.

Okay, color.

That's easy. Umm...

How about...

I'm gonna go

right there.

Sunset-y blue.

Sunset-y blue?

Yeah.

I didn't realize

that was a color.

Ah, see, it's not

just a color, all right.

It's my favorite color.

Oh.

Happens every day.

That's you and me, you know.

We happen every day.

Here comes the "but."

But...

I knew it.

What do you know?

Not much.

I know

we're both thinking

the same thing.

Oh. What's that?

That maybe

this is supposed to be

our last sunset together.

Our last

magical,

unforgettable sunset.

What do we do?

I don't know.

Well, we're kinda

running out of time here.

Let's make a list.

What... are you serious?

Pros and cons

of breaking-up.

Uh-huh.

We're both thinking

the same thing.

So, just,

we'll put it out there.

Put it out there.

And...

Let's get them

out there.

Let's just...

Okay, pros for breaking-up.

Let's go.

Pros for breaking-up.

Pro.

We... we wouldn't

have to do

the long distance thing.

I mean...

People say it's brutal.

Yeah.

And we wouldn't have to be

that pathetic freshmen,

waiting around for

our boyfriend or girlfriend

when everyone else is out

experiencing new things.

Right. Cool things.

Yeah.

You can kiss as many

guys as you wanted.
