"   The MTV hit Awkward is airing its season finale tomorrow, at 11 PM EST (tear!). To tide us over until then, CG sat down with the adorable Brett Davern, who plays Jake on the show. He opens up on the show&amp;#039;s success, what it&amp;#039;s like on the set, and truth about whether or not guys and girls can be &amp;quot;just friends.&amp;quot; Read on, and then tell us if you&amp;#039;re rooting for Matty or Jake, in the comments! Cosmogirl: So is everyone on the set close? BD: Oh yeah, totally. Every Tuesday night, there will be some sort of get together at somebody&amp;#039;s house or apartment. We all try to watch the show together a lot of the time. Beau and I met at his screen test and we&amp;#039;ve been best friends ever since. CG: What do you guys do when you&amp;#039;re not on set?  BD: We hang out constantly. We have separate rooms in the trailers, but we&amp;#039;re always in each other&amp;#039;s trailers. We&amp;#039;re just constantly kicking it. Or on our days off, we&amp;#039;re playing golf or going snowboarding or whatever, so we&amp;#039;re always hanging out. CG: We love Jake. What do you want to happen for him, next?  BD: There are definitely some big surprises coming up. I&amp;#039;m really excited for all fans to see what&amp;#039;s going to happen because it&amp;#039;s not what you expect. As far as what I want for Jake, I think he&amp;#039;s a little addicted to relationships. He&amp;#039;s that guy. Jake is kind of like, &amp;quot;I want to be your boyfriend,&amp;quot; always. He sees Jenna, and he&amp;#039;s like, &amp;quot;Oh, here&amp;#039;s someone new, and she&amp;#039;s kind of different, and maybe I should be with her.&amp;quot; I just kind of want Jake to find what he wants to do rather than what he thinks he should do. CG: Jake and Jenna are friends, and then he develops feelings for her. Do you think it&amp;#039;s ever possible for girls and guys to be friends? BD: That is the age old question, isn&amp;#039;t it? I got to tell you my opinion on that changes daily. If you would have called me last week, I would have said, &amp;quot;No, no, not at all. They could never just be friends.&amp;quot; CG: And now? BD: You know, it&amp;#039;s funny. I have friends from high school who I still talk to who are girls, and we never hooked up or dated or anything in high school, but now, there&amp;#039;s that moment where it&amp;#039;s like, &amp;quot;But I liked you for a few months,&amp;quot; then it&amp;#039;s like, &amp;quot;Well, I liked you for a few months,&amp;quot; but it was never at the same time.? So there&amp;#039;s almost always some sort of attraction, isn&amp;#039;t there? Just even as a friend, you&amp;#039;re attracted to a person, like, &amp;quot;Oh, this is an interesting person. Let&amp;#039;s hang out.&amp;quot; CG: And when you do dive in, what&amp;#039;s your relationship secret?  BD: It&amp;#039;s totally clich\u00E9, but the biggest thing is just communication, it really is. Just talking and being honest, the biggest thing. Even if it&amp;#039;s hard. About anything. It could be the smallest, little day-to-day thing, just being able to tell the other person what you think about anything and having them respect you for that and listen. Just open, honest communication is the best thing in the world. You don&amp;#039;t want any secrets or anything like that. It makes it easy. CG: What about your relationship dealbreaker? BD: It&amp;#039;s got to be dishonesty. That&amp;#039;s just bad, especially if you get caught in any sort of anything. It could be the smallest thing, too. It doesn&amp;#039;t have to be anything earth-shaking. I would also say the other relationship secret is like pick up the phone every once in a while and quit texting so much. I&amp;#039;ll go on record to be the first guy to complain about it because it&amp;#039;s like all this texting, you know? Just pick up the phone and have a five-minute conversation, the same thing that you do in two hours of texting. Are you guys as big of fans of Awkward as we are? What do you want to happen in the season finale? Follow Brett on Twitter @bdavv! "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
