The overall premise of this story is good, even though I am not really into love stories.
I marked the dialogue as fair, in that there were far too many what I would call incomplete comments.
I hate being critical of someone else's work, because I hate hurting other's feelings.
I rated this version as needing work because it does. I didn't mark every error I found down, but in the first six pages alone I found three
Page one - The last line page four - Jake is talking should be (I am NOT like 25) page six - Alisa is talking to Emma, not to Alisa
These are the things that will kill a screenplay when viewed by a producer
Don't give up. Your premise is good, the overall story structure is good, your characters are realtively good. Strengthen your dialogue. And the emotion is good.
