Chapter 5 words and actions and DRAMA! Please don't skip to the end. Please. Sorry if its hard to follow. There's a lot of movement that I have to identify.
Setting: outside lunch area. Cat, Robbie, André, Rex (who is asleep in Robbie's lap) and Sinjin are sitting together at a table.
Cat(waving toward Jade and Beck)- Hi Jade! Hi Beck! Come sit with us!
(Jade continues walking and pretends not to have heard her)
Beck- ok! (turns around and starts to walk toward Cat and friends)
(Jade grabs Beck's arm) Whispering angrily: Beck, you know I don't want to sit with them. They—
Beck- calm down. It's just lunch.
( they walk over to the table and sit down)
André- Hey Beck! Haven't seen you much lately. What's up?
Beck- Well, I've been—
Jade- WE've been busy with school and After school acting classes, not that we need them.
André- oh-kay then.
(Awkward silence… doesn't last long )
Cat- So Jade,
Jade- WHAT?
Cat- nevermind.
Jade- Oh no, now I need to know what you were going to say. Go on, say it.
Cat- ok! :DI was just wondering if your purple highlights were real. Because I dye my hair this color, in case you didn't know. But some people have hair that is naturally red, well not this shade of red, but more plain. I prefer not to be plain so I dyed my hair this color. I have to re-dye it sometimes or the natural color will show where it has grown in at the top. What was I talking about again?
Robbie- Jade's Highlights.
Cat- Oh! And anyway I was wondering if yours were real because I've never seen people with naturally purple hair but I didn't know about you because you know you didn't sweat for a long time. But then you did so I don't know what that really has to do with it but something. And are they real? Yes? No? Will you tell me?
Jade- no.
Cat- no what? No, you won't tell me or no, they aren't real?
Jade- *groans* no one has naturally purple hair, Cat.
Cat- oh. Ok! (confused for a moment and then happy)
(Tori walks by. Cat waves at Tori.)
Cat- Tori! Come sit with us! I saved you a spot!
Jade- (loudly) but we took it so there's not enough room anymore.
Cat- I'll move over.
Sinjin- you can move closer to me.
Cat- ok!
(Tori walks over. Sinjin moves closer to Jade)
Jade- Move over you bushy headed imbecile.
(Cat moves closer to Sinjin. Tori sits between Cat and Robbie)
Robbie- Hey Tori, how was language arts?
Tori (using a British accent)- Jolly good. We debated the similarities between a British accent and that of an (changes to Australian accent) Australian. My argument was pulled apart like ribs straight of the bar bee and tossed to the dingoes.
(Everyone but Jade laughs. Beck stops laughing immediately when he sees Jade)
Cat- oooh! That was good! Now do Jade!
Tori- no, that's enough.
(Cat frowns)
Jade- no, go ahead.
Tori- well, I'm not very good at impressions of people.
Jade- don't make up excuses.
Tori (trying to talk like Jade)- ummm… I'm Jade. I don't like Tori. I make sure everyone knows I'm dating Beck because I don't want him to be stolen. It may even be my biggest fear. Beck, Tell me you love me.
Beck- I love you Tori.
