Kevin gets his lunch in the school cafeteria. He walks over to a table.
Kevin:
(shy)
Uh, hi, Stacey.
Stacey:
Do I know you?
Kevin:
Well, uh, not really.
Stacey:
Then, like, why are you bothering me?
Kevin:
Well, I was just wondering if...I could sit here...maybe.
Stacey:
Uh, most of the other tables are empty. Most of the other kids have
already eaten.
(suddenly bitter)
That's what you get for misplacing your lunch money.
Kevin:
Are you speaking from personal experience?
Short pause.
Stacey:
Yeah.
Kevin:
Mike Vincent?
Stacey:
Yeah. I hid it so he wouldn't find it, but then I forgot where I put
it, so I couldn't find it. But then I DID find it. So,
I'm here, eating.
Kevin:
Uh, yeah, I kinda figured.
(short pause)
Can I sit down here?
Stacey:
(uninterested)
If you want.
Kevin:
Thanks!
Kevin sits down across from Stacey.
Kevin:
I'm Kevin - Kevin Keene!
Stacey:
(suddenly interested)
The video game geek?!
Kevin:
Uh,...yeah.
Stacey:
Stacey Anderson.
Kevin:
(excited)
I know!
Stacey:
Hey, I heard you know where to get discount rates on video game
cartridges!
Kevin:
YOU like video games?!
Mike:
(gleeful)
Well, looky what we have here!
Kevin:
Oh, no.
Mike sits down between Kevin and Stacey.
Mike:
How's it goin', Keene?
(takes Kevin's chocolate milk)
I come all the way over here and save you from Stacey, and all you've
got for me is a chocolate milk?
(short pause)
So, Stacey, you wanna go out with me tomorrow night?
Stacey:
(automatic, toneless response)
Fuck off.
Mike:
Yeah. Right. Well, uh,...
Kevin and Stacey pick up their trays, stand up, and walk away.
Mike:
(yelling)
Hey! Get back here!
