Girl

Can I ask you a question?

Boy

Um…sure (look bored)

Girl

What is love like. Does if feel more like a butterfly in the spring air or more like a hug by the fire place or is it like sitting under the night sky counting stars?

Boy

(Long Pause, Not even listening) You can’t even count stars. There’s too many. There are billions and trillions of them out there.

Girl

(Not really listening now, lost in own world. Dance around the stage as if in love and steals glances at Girl.) Well. I think love is like a hug or kiss beside the fire place. It’s the dead of night outside. The temperature outside is…cold. Very cold. Like so cold, I’m gonna die if I’m not wrapped around you… (Blushing)

Boy

What did you say? (look up from book)

Girl

Oh, nothing. I was just saying that is cold right now.
