Meet Lucas, Lucas Tudor, the only child of 'the' perfect Merry Tudor and William Tudor.

[Lucas enters his room]

Wear this Lucas, you'll look better, says Merry, and be ready in 10 minutes you're already late for your first day at high school and I don't want any trouble, you know our name is so precious, right? But mom, I don't like..[Merry holds his hands.] Please Lucas, seizing his hands I don't want your father to hurt you, now be quick, downstairs in 10 minutes.

[Lucas stepping downstairs for the breakfast]

Oh! There you are, my boy, you look so handsome in this. Come on now, join us.

[She pours juice into the expensive glass.]

Lucas picks up the glass.

Okay boy, now I want you to listen to me very carefully, says William. I am going to stand in elections as a Mayor of this beautiful town and I don't want you to make any trouble in high school and you need to stop hanging out with Jones, that guy is skint, he has no standards, I don't want you to be anywhere near him, do you understand?

But, he is my friend. We are friends since I was 10

[William clutches the spoon in his hand.]

We know who is right for you and who is not, okay? says Merry opening her eyes wider.

Okay, mom. Lucas stands up and says I am going to school now, bye.

Bye, just keep the smile on your face, we love you, says Merry.

[Door knocks, Jones opens the door]

With toast in his mouth, says Jones come in Lucas I was just about to call you. Lucas enters his house without saying a word, what is it? Lucas 'the' Tudor has nothing to say today? chuckles Jones, hey, man what happened, Lucas exhales sharply, I am just tired of being a puppet of my parents, they want me to put a fake smile on my face every time, my mom knows I am gay but she doesn't want me to be like one, she wants me to be like my father, all fake and strong and now they don't want me to talk to you. What? says Jones,(scoffs) Lol, this is new. Forget it, let's just go to school, I can't wait to see Lilly. And Harry, oh god he is so hot, says Lucas. They both look at each other and smile. Let's go, says Jones.

The Crystal Dane high School is a small school that is one of the best schools in this beautiful town where there is discipline, love, passion among our bright students, and the principal Beewood continues.

Ay, Jones (in low voice) Jones, Jonessss, what? what is it? Did you see Lilly? asks Gordie, No I haven't seen her, have you? Why would I ask you, if I would've seen her, dumbones says Gordie, why are you even looking for her, I thought you're not friends with her anymore. Gordie chuckles and says what dude, she is my girlfriend. Jones didn't know about this and felt bad, he turns his face away and didn't reply to Gordie.

What? Lilly and Gordie, hahaha (Lucas laughs loudly), you're really laughing? Oh! I am sorry (scoffs again), but why would she not tell you I mean she is your best friend, after all, yeah that's the point she didn't even tell me we have been friends since class 1, if this is true I am not gonna talk to her, closes the drawer. Hey Lucas, comes Lilly. Oh! Hi Lilly, we didn't see you, Jones was just talking about you. Jones looks angrily at Lucas and says I was about to go to biology, I'll talk to you later. [Lily gives a confusing look to Lucas]

After the class ends Lucas tells Jones to act normal and don't tell Lilly about his feelings, Jones agrees. On the way to the classroom Lucas and Jones hear principal Beewood arguing with someone, but they keep moving and Jones crashes with a new girl in the school, he tries to help her by picking things up but she angrily asks him to be gone and she picks her things up and goes away. Jones looks at the girl and speaks in a low voice, she's is crazy.

Lilly comes again to Jones and asks him to talk to her privately, Jones agrees, she tells him about Gorgie and herself. So, what do you think? Are you angry at me because he hurt me, in what? 2nd grade! Jones says no, why would I have any problem with this? I mean he is a nice guy and you're my best friend, right? She smiles and says yeah I thought you would hate me for loving Gorgie. You what?? You 'love' Gorgie? I thought you guys just like each other and you're dating. I mean yes I used to like him but he is so sweet I kinda love him and I haven't told him yet, I want to take things slow., you're the first one to know. Oh! that's, that's great, I am happy for you Lilly, fake smiles Jones. Thank you, Jones. Enters Gorgie, hey babe am I interrupting something? Oh no, not at all I was just telling Jones about us. Ah! I thought you already did, so I told him in the morning meeting. Oh! Jones, so you knew? Umm, yeah actually he did. Lilly chuckles that's great then, yeah says Gorgie and they kiss, you're great too Lilly. Jones says okay so I'll meet you tomorrow Lilly, okay Jonesbones says Gorgie, bye. Bye.

Jones was really upset, Lucas on the way with Jones to his home gives him advice, he asks him to just chill out and drop Lilly from his head for some time, he'll feel better, but Jones says he'll see. When Jones reaches his home, they see a family moving into the house next to his, they move towards them, hey! I am Jones, and I live next door. Hi Jones, I am Luna Cooper, your new neighbor. Nice to meet you, Mrs. Cooper, ah! (scoffs) please call me Luna, and her daughter comes looking for her, mom! where were you I was looking for you upstairs, Oh honey I was talking to our neighbors, she turns her face to Jones. They both together say You? Why are you here, ugh! What? you've already met, asks Luna. Oh yes, they've, mocks Lucas. That's great, says Luna, you've already made new friends. Friends! Mom, he crashed into me at school. Oh! you are her school mate that's good. Luna's daughter looks at Jones with a hateful face, turns around, and goes inside her home. Luna says okay, see ya, Jones. See ya, Ms. Luna. And your daughter too says Lucas in low voice mocking Jones. He laughs and mimics see ya Jones again. Jones enters his home and opens his fridge but couldn't find anything so he sits on the bed opens his laptop and wonders if he should take part in the writing competition but closes the laptop again and goes to his favorite place 'The Cafe Teen'.

Mr. Ceteen gives him his regular meal and asks if he wants something else. No thanks Teen, with a low voice. What happened Jones, can I help you with something? Jones tuts, oh Teen, since my mom died I don't have anything, she used to work so hard for me. I am sorry for your loss Jones, but I can help you with something. What? opening his eyes wider asks Jones. You can work in this cafe, I was already looking for somebody I mean why not you, only if you want to, smiles old Teen. Jones hug Teen and says thank you. Now, come on boy wear this after you're done having your meal. Jones smiles and turns his face and sees Luna's daughter. Oh god, third in a day, she is so annoying,(she smiles while talking on her phone) but beautiful. [She caught him staring at her]

Jones turns his eyes away while Luna's daughter walks to him and yells, what is the problem with you? First, you crashed into me in school. Then, my mother and now, here too. What were you talking to my mother, hah? And now what you're everywhere?

Woah! Woah! Woah! Breath up. I am not stalking you, okay? And I didn't crash on you on purpose. And F.Y.I, I live in this town too, coincidentally next to your new house.

She scoffs and turns her face. Jones says ay! what is it with you? Why do you yell all the time?

I don't, smashing on the table. I mean I don't ( in a normal voice) I am just frustrated. Also, everything is so creepy here.

[scoffs] What? Crystal Dane and creepy, they never go together.

[She sits on the chair in front of Jones]

I am not kidding or lying, everything creepy happened today. At school just before you crashed into me, a guy named Harry!? I guess! We were in the music room and he freaked out for no reason and ran away. I went to him and asked what happened and he said 'He will kill me, he'll kill all of you, he's back' I asked who and principal Beewood saw us and sent us back to our classes, which was kind of weird.

But who would Harry be afraid of? I mean that never happened before, says Jones. I don't know, I told you this town is creepy.

I think it was just a prank or something don't take it seriously, Crystal Dane is safe and beautiful trust me I live here since I was 8.

Yeah, maybe you're right. I shouldn't think about that too much.

Yeah, I am. (smiles Jones)

Ellyn (offering her hand) Jones, says Jones shaking her hand with a smile you're not that annoying. Really? but you are so annoying says Ellyn laughing, Jones scoffs. Comes Mr. Teen, Order? Ellyn says yes please 2 burgers, take away. Okay, Teen goes away.

So, where are you from? I used to live in New York. Wow, so why here?

[Exhales] Because my parents got divorced and my mom didn't want us to live in New York anymore.

I am sorry, says Jones but this place is not less than New York (chuckles), I was born in this town, it feels like heaven.

Ah-ha (smiles Ellyn) that's great, I hope I can call it my home too.

Here's your order. Thank you, sir. Oh! please don't call me sir, I am Ceteen, kids call me Teen, Ellyn, she smiles and says thank you, Teen.

Bye Jones meet you at school. Bye Ellyn.

Now, come on boy let's work, okay sir mimics Jones and chuckles.

The next day at school Jones tells Lucas about his little encounter with Ellyn and Lucas didn't say anything.

What is it, Lucas? Did your mom said that don't meet with Jones thing again? No-no, it's not that. What is it then? Exhaling sharply, I didn't tell you one thing, last summer holiday, me and Harry, we umm. You and Harry what? We kissed. What? Wow, really? Shush, don't say it loud. He has actually not told anybody that he is gay, oh! So, why are you upset then? Because he keeps ignoring me in the hallway, in class everywhere where we are not alone, and I want to talk to him because he seems upset these days but you know I can't call him home right? Okay, I see. You can just ask him to meet somewhere else. Whenever I try to talk to him, he goes away.

[Lucas stares at Jones with a wide smile]

No no no I am not going to do that for you. Please, please, don't you call me your best friend? ugh okay, fine says Jones. Lucas writes place and time on a paper with his name on a note and asks Jones to give it to Harry. Jones gives the same to Harry.

Ellyn comes up and says hi Jones. Hey Ellyn, I thought you're not coming today. No, I am late today,(exhales) you know we are still shifting some stuff. Yeah! Yeah! I know shifting can be a headache. (They both smile.)

After the class, Lucas says thank you Jonesbons, ay you stop calling me that okay? Chuckles, lol not okay thankyou again bye bye I have to choose what to wear on my date. Harry looks at Lucas and turns his face around, Lucas says oh my god, did you see that?

Jones scoffs and says okay I have to go I'll be late, I work at Mr. Teen's now, oh really? that's great. Yup! Bye. Bye Jonesbones.

[Jones walking to his home from Cafe Teen at 9 pm, hears a voice from a shattered house, which looks much haunted now]

Don't please ( loudly) Aaah

Ah! (Voice fading) please help, help

And the voice stops.

[Jones walks slowly near the house.]

He sees Lucas standing on Harry's half-dead body. Jones panically runs into them.

Lucas, what did you do Lucas?

Lucas unable to hear anything in shock, he was numb. The knife from Lucas's hand full of blood drops on the floor. He numbly says I-I didn't do anything, I was just, we were to meet here, when I came the knife was inside his body already, I-I just took it out of his body. Jones got numb too for a minute, why would you do that? nobody will believe you, the fingerprints on this knife are yours. Lucas starts crying. Jones holds Lucas and says we have to call Sheriff. No-no, are you listening to yourself? (In a loud voice) I am not - I am not going to Sheriff. But if you don't they'll find this out and there will be more evidence against you, like hiding the dead body! We have to report this to the sheriff, I promise I'll find out who did this to Harry, just pull yourself together for now.

Lucas pushes Jones away, no nobody is going to report to sheriff, please Jones, please my parents will kill me, we are not, no-no we're not going to report this. We'll hide this body somewhere and clean this knife with alcohol and never going to talk about this ever. Did you hear me? Please Jones, for me.

Do you even know what you're asking me to do? says Jones, this is not little, this is big. We can not do this Lucas, we should report or we'll end up in a cell, or maybe worse. Trust me you don't want to get caught in this.

No-No Jones, nobody will know anything.

(In louder voice) , what about his parents hah? Won't they try to find him? Listen to me, if you do this right we could get you a lawyer. And we can find who did this to him.

Shutup Jones, what about my parents, hah? Please help me out of this or-or I'll kill myself with this knife. What? Are you crazy?

[Lucas cries] Yes, I am going crazy, please Jones please get alcohol, please. Or just think of it we will end up in jail, we won't graduate, no college, nothing. Please try to understand.

Okay, I'll - I'll get them, the gloves and alcohol.

[Lucas, in a Panic voice] Be quick.
