Sucker

It was a beautiful summer morning. Some residents of Sterling Court were out in the courtyard playing ball, others were just relaxing in the sun, others, like Ethan were marching to their best friend's apartment to let him in on something he had heard the night before. 

Ethan: (Walks in to the apartment) Reed! Are you here?

Reed: (Steps out of his bedroom sleepily) Yes, yes, why are you here so early!

Ethan: I thought you'd like to know a few things I overheard last night. 

Reed: (Sits down at the dining table) Go on...

Ethan: (Sits down smugly) It turns out Kim has another admirer.

Reed: (Looks at him suspiciously) Who?

Ethan: Landon

Reed: (Looks at Ethan in amusement) What?

Ethan: Landon, yes, it seems he's been carrying a torch for her for quite sometime. 

Reed: And you think I'd care because...

Ethan: I just think you should be a little worried, considering that you and Kim are not on the best of terms at the moment. 

Reed: We weren't on the best of terms, that is until last night.

Ethan: What happened? Did she finally give it up?

Reed: Unfortunately no, which is quite annoying because I like to test drive a car before I buy it, if you know what I mean(Begins making a mimosa.). 

Ethan: So what changed?

Reed: Simple manipulation, I had fake papers made that looked identical to my bank papers. I told her money meant nothing to me and I burned them.(Sips his mimosa smugly)

Ethan: Good show old boy.

Reed: Why thank you, thank you very much. So you see why I'm not worried about that sniffling little jock, Landon. He's nothing compared to me. 

Ethan: I wouldn't say that, he is extremely caring for Kim and he always seems to be there for her when something goes wrong, plus he always out-shined you in the athletic department. 

Reed: (Looks at Ethan) Maybe, but I have Kim and he doesn't. 

Ethan: I'm just trying to help you keep your guard up, thats all. 

Reed: Ethan, Kim is a lady of breeding. She has grown accustomed to the finer things in life, Landon can not give her these things, I can. Believe me, Kim is head over heels for me. 

Ethan: The only reason she's head over heels for you is because she think she knows you. She doesn't know about all your devious little habits. I suggest you play it clean for a while. 

Reed: Perhaps your right, I should definitely keep my bases covered, especially now that I'm in a very fragile place with Kim. 

Ethan: That means no sleeping around. If you want Kim to think that you love her and that you're saving yourself for her, I suggest you keep it zipped. 

Reed: Lets not get too hasty Ethan. 

Ethan: Reed, I mean it, and the drinking and drugs has to stop too. Kim will start watching you very closely, mainly because her friends are advising her too. 

Reed: Damn them, you're right, I do need to be more careful. 

Ethan: Don't worry, just keep playing your 'all American boy' act and you'll keep Kim and your millions. 

Reed: (Hands Ethan a mimosa and holds up his glass.) To our little sucker, Kim!

They laugh and clink their glasses together


Meanwhile, outside in the parking lot Geneva has returned from Krispy Kreme with a box of donuts and some coffee. She's driving along in the parking lot, when suddenly a car in a parking space backs right in to her. Geneva gets out of her car in fury. The other driver gets out of his car, his name is Chase DeLozier. 

Chase: What the hell do you think you're doing?

Geneva: What I was doing? What about you? You're the one who backed into me! Did you lose your rearview mirror?

Chase: I don't know, did you lose your sense of sight all together?

Geneva: Hey, I was the one with the right away!

Chase: Oh thats right, you're one of those rich girls who thinks that the world revolves around them! What were you doing when I was backing out? Counting your money and playing with your diamond tiara? 

Geneva: Where the hell do you get off? You don't even know me! How dare you judge me!

Chase: Well it's not too hard for me to come to my conclusion, considering your car. 

Geneva: (Looks back at her car and then at him) What about my car?

Chase: A 2010 Mercedes E-Class, not even released yet, not a car an ordinary person of our age drives, I bet you bought it with daddy's money.

Geneva: Not that it's any of your business but it was gift, my father knows the owner. 

Chase: Of course your daddy knows the owner. You're a little rich bitch who could care less about anyone else's car, and if your's gets dinged, so what! You'll just have your daddy fix it. 

Geneva: (Completely in rage) How dare you make assumptions about me and my life, when you know nothing about me! You don't even know my name, so lets keep it that way! You're a judgmental, pinheaded jerk, who probably thrives upon arguments like this because it distracts you from how little your dick is!

Chase: (Gives her a cocky grin) 

Geneva: (Turns to get back in her car and then turns around at him) Oh and by the looks of your brand new Armani blazer and your 2009 Porsche, I'm guessing that not only are you a very wealthy person and a complete asshole, but your also a hypocrite! 

Geneva gets into her car and speeds off as Chase watches her smiling.
