From curious crowd, he grabs Lindsay's hand, went out to her car as they drove out of the campus. The air between them became familiar since it's their third time already seeing each other.

As they went to the same restaurant, Lindsay was still quiet along the way and didn't speak a word to Jayson. As soon as the two enter restaurant, a series of clicks was press into their camera of the paparazzi standing by on the area.

They enter the restaurant, sat in the innermost part with less people around and order some refreshment for their minds. He remembers not to order dessert when eating outside with someone like Lindsay Lohan, order juice and asks: "Could stop this nonsense of you and company? Why you're pretending my girlfriend Lindsay?

Lindsay Lohan takes a sip of the juice given by the waiter and said: "I don't have voice in the company, I'm just a little star in their eyes, it's you who kiss me in the first place and I didn't force you ordering dessert last time. If you didn't do those things, I wouldn't be here with you now and get also mad on this issue."

"Well, I'm sorry for taking advantage on you that traffic accident but your way of dealing things is wrong and the dessert thing is unintentional on my part. We must first clarify our relation, we can be friends but not lovers and that's my decision.

"Since we can be friends, can I call Jayson" Lindsay felt relieve to have a friend she talk to.

"It's fine, you can call me that Lindsay and clarify that weren't in-relationship but friends through Avril." Jayson patiently said to Lindsay who's enjoying her moment with him.
