Jennifer: What are your plans after school?

Mahoney: Well... um... I'm going to Tech, then I'm taking you home and then me and James are going to see Sweeney Todd.

Jennifer: You and James?

Mahoney: Yeah, he might invite Abbi too.

Jennifer: Cool, tell me how it is, I've been wanting to see it.

Mahoney: Ok.

Mahoney stops talking again, then after a few seconds he looks up.

Mahoney: If you want you can...

Mahoney mumbles something.

Jennifer: I can what?

Mahoney: You can come with us if you want.

Jennifer: You wouldn't mind?

Mahoney: No, not at all. The more the merrier. Anyway I'll have someone to talk to since James will be with Abbi.

Jennifer: Great.

Mahoney: So... um... wh... what are your plans for the weekend?

Jennifer: I'm supposed to go to a baby shower with my mom, what about you?

Mahoney: Me and James were gonna drive to Virginia and see his cousins, they're always doing crazy shi... things.

Jennifer: You hang out with James a lot.

Mahoney: Well ya know, best friends.

Jennifer: Do you wish you two could be more than that?

Mahoney suddenly looks up at her shocked

Mahoney: What did you say?

Jennifer: Well you two are ALWAYS together, you always talk about him. Do you like him?

Mahoney: N... no... I.

Jennifer: It's alright, I won't tell anyone.

Mahoney's cell phone starts to vibrate, he pulls it out and the screen says "James (Cell)" Mahoney turns the phone off and sticks the phone back in his pocket.

Mahoney: That was... my mom.

Mahoney's mouth just sits open while he tries to think of something to say. Jennifer starts to laugh. Mahoney looks at her puzzled.

Jennifer: I'm just messing with you.

Mahoney sighs in relief and puts his hand on his chest.

Then he flicks his hand forward, palm facing down and elbow bent in a V shape, fingers pointing away from him.
