(Two boys playing a video game)
Josh: So…I was wondering if it was alright that I was talking to Katie?
Patrick: Cool
Josh: I mean it’s really nothing serious…you know… just an innocent conversation
Patrick: Cool
(Josh puts down play station stick)
Josh: I mean she is a nice girl…funny, smart, charming, beautiful…
Patrick: Yeah…and?
Josh: And you know…we have been talking for a while…and we are thinking of meeting up sometime.
Patrick: Cool…where are we going?
Josh: (hesitating) Well…you see…we were thinking…well she was thinking…that she and I would meet up…like on a date or something…just the two o9f us…without you.
Patrick: Dude …are you trying to hook up with Kate?
Josh: (hesitating) No…of course not…just meet …you know rendezvous sometime…face-to-face…that’s all…nothing serious.
Patrick: Dude(Puts down play station stick and turns head to Josh)…you are so trying to hook up with Katie…my Katie…dude…that’s the love of my life.
Josh::Whoa…I really didn’t think you had taken a 6th grade crush that serious.
Patrick: Yo dude…we had a special connection…a connection that no one can ever understand…a connection like no other… nothing you have ever had…a deep connection.
Josh: no wonder she is asking me out on a date…that’s pretty…deep.
(Phone rings. Text message from Katie to Josh)
Patrick: who is that? Is that Katie? What is she saying?
Josh: Nothing…nothing serious.
Patrick: Nothing huh?
Josh: Yeah…nothing.
Patrick: Liar! (Grabs Josh by the collar) …you see Josh that’s how it starts… That’s how it all starts…first its texting then dating and before I know it you’ll be getting married and having little babies with my Katie!
Josh: Whoa … Patrick take it easy. You are overreacting.
Patrick: (pulls away from Josh) Over reacting Josh? Oh and you don’t think your behavior is appalling. Flirting with an ex-crush of mine…oh how devious!

Michelle: I guess so.
(She walks out)
Josh: Excuse me! I cannot believe that you have the audacity to flirt with my sister right in front of me!
Patrick: Dude relax… she is cute…very attractive I must say.
Josh: You will not look at her or talk to her like that. I will not have it.
Patrick: Fine, then you can’t talk for meet up with Katie.
Josh: Fine then!
