Richard (Bitterly, not looking at Chris): I didn't go to the prom, ok?
Chris (Softly): Why not?
Richard (Searching for a story): I -- I had to s-stay home and. . . baby-sit. My sea monkeys.
Chris: Richard, why don't you tell me the truth --
Richard (Frantically): No, uh, I, uh -- couldn't afford it. Proms cost a lot,you know. Hundreds of dollars nowadays. Actually -- oh, now I remember -- we went on vacation that weekend. Cape Cod, I think. Yeah, it was --Chris (Stops his from pacing by grabbing both his arms): You couldn't find a date.
Richard (Shaking): How did you know?
Chris (Yelling): Jesus, you're worse than jello on a spring. What are you afraid of? (Richard shrugs.) Are you afraid of me? (Nods.) It's easy, Richard. It goes something like this: I like you, Richard, I want to go out with you! (Richard raises his head, eyes wide.) Do you like me, Richard, do you want to go out with me? (Nods.) Good! Was that so hard? (Shakes his head. Softer:) Here, sit down, Richard. (They sit on his bed.) Remember to breathe, Richard. (He exhales.
Slight pause.) Is it ok if I put my arm around you? (He nods. She does.) Boy, you sure are a basket case. (She sighs.) Listen, I know you're new at this dating thing, so I'll take it easy on you, ok?
Richard (Smiling): Thank you.
Chris: How do you feel now?
