The next morning a ringing from Donnie's jacket wakes Jess. "Donnie your coats ringing."

Donnie - "Huh, what?"

Jess - "I think your phones ringing."

Donnie - "Oh, shit." He gets up and gets it. Jess rolls over and watches him. "Hello? Oh hey man whats up? We're not leaving until four I'll be there. Man just back off okay. Hey that's uncalled for." He looks at her and winks. "Okay see you at the airport. My manager is paranoid." He looks at the clock. "What time's your class?"

Jess - "Ten. You're leaving today?" He sits on the bed next to her.

Donnie - "Yeah to go on tour remember."

Jess - "Oh yeah. So what are you going to do the rest of the day?"

Donnie - "Follow you around campus."

Jess - "No you're not."

Donnie - "I want to spend time with you before I leave and if that's what I have to do I'll do it."

Jess - "Well maybe you can talk me into not going."

Donnie - "Oh and how can I do that?"

Jess - "Breakfast. I'm hungry."

Donnie - "I could do breakfast. I'll go to the hotel and change and be back in like a half hour." He starts getting dressed.

Jess - "It will take you that long to get there. Go ahead and I'll met you there if that's okay."

Donnie - "Sure. I'll see you in what like an hour then."

Jess - "Yeah bye."

Donnie - "Bye." He leans down to kiss her, and lingers a little to long.

Jess - "You better go or breakfast is going to be come lunch."

Donnie - "Okay, hurry."

He leaves and she jumps in the shower and gets dressed. Jess decided to wear a sundress with a little jacket over it. She throws on her sneakers and grabs her purse on the way out. She goes down to the garage and takes her explorer over to the hotel they're staying at. She walks across the lobby and to the elevators. When she gets off on their floor there's a guard there.

Guard - "Excuse me miss may I see you room key please."

Jess - "I don't have one I'm here to see a friend."

Guard - "What room."

Jess - "2608"

Guard - "And your name?"

Jess - "Jessica Connery." Just then Danny walks up.

Danny - "Hey. It's okay Bruce, she's a friend of Donnie's."

Bruce - "Sure thing Mr. Wood."

Jess - "Thanks."

Danny - "No problem Joe was making me crazy so I went for a walk. Here's Donnies room." He knocks. "Hey man you decent."

Donnie - "Yeah but I really don't have time man I'm trying to get ready." He opens the door. "Hey that was fast."

Jess - "Well I was in a hurry."

Donnie - "Thanks Danny."

Danny - "No problem that's my job in life to find everyone else's woman. See you at four."

Donnie - "Come on in I'm almost ready, you look nice. So what do you want to do after breakfast?"

Jess - "Oh we can just hang out drive around see where it takes us."

Donnie - "Sounds good. Okay lets go."

They ate, then just hung out the rest of the day until it was time to take him to the airport. Jess walked with him to the gate.

Jess - "So what's the first thing you do when you get to Amsterdam?"

Donnie - "Miss you."

Jess - "Come on I'm being serious."

Donnie - "I am. I've had so much fun today and now I have to leave for like two months and I don't even have a picture of you." Jess digs in her purse.

Jess - "Here take my student ID it's not a great picture but it'll be something so you don't forget me." He looks at it.

Donnie - "You're only 18."

Jess - "Yeah. Does that make a difference?"

Donnie - "No. But I thought you were older."

Jess - "Everyone does I graduated high school a year early." They walk to the gate where everyone else is waiting. Before getting into earshot.

Jordan - "He must really like this one he spent the whole day with her."

Joe - "Yeah she's pretty cute, but she's smart too so I don't know what she's doing with him."

Jordan - "Donnie just always gets the good ones."

Joe - "Hopefully he won't screw this one up." Jordan agrees as they get closer.

Jess - "I'm going to go."

Donnie - "You're not going to see me on the plane."

Jess - "I don't want you to see me cry. If I leave before you do I won't."

Donnie - "I'm going to call you as soon as I get to the hotel."

Jess - "Okay. Bye."

Donnie - "Bye." He kisses her and she leaves. He turns to the guys. "Not one word."

Jordan - "So is it love?"

Donnie - "It might be." He sits down and puts on his headphones.
