Teen Ink

SCENE V

(BRIT is at her locker when TED approaches her.)
TED-Babe, you, me, Chainsaw Massacre, Friday night.
BRIT-…
TED-Okay? What up with the cold shoulder?
BRIT-I don’t know. I just feel a little bit guilty for what happened with Corey and I.
TED-This again?
BRIT-Ted, I cheated on him! I’ve never cheated on anyone before. What kind of rep does that give me.
TED-Who cares? It just means we have each other now, doesn’t it? (She thinks.) Well?
BRIT-Yeah, I guess so.
TED-So, what do you say? Friday night?
BRIT-(Pauses)…sure, why not.
TED-Cool, I’ll be at your house at 8. (He leans in for a kiss as she slightly cocks her head for him to kiss her on the cheek. He then leaves. COREY approaches and then stops when he sees her and begins to leave.)
BRIT-Corey-
COREY-No, I have nothing to say to you.
BRIT-But Corey-(He stops and looks directly into her eyes.)
COREY-No…(Leaves. She stays put as she then looks at the ground in shame.)
