Scene 8

(Daniel enters)


Daniel: Where are they? They are an hour late!


(Coral and Walter enter)


Daniel: Where have you been?


Coral: I’m sorry; we don’t know where your house is


Daniel: Why didn’t you ask your date then?


Coral: Walter? I thought you didn’t know


Walter: Well, I’m sorry for lying to you. I just want to spend some time with you


Coral: Aww!


Daniel: It’s ok. Let’s not dwell on that. Where are the others?


Walter: I don’t know about Gerard. Maybe he had a date with Jasmine first


Coral: And Alex is getting ready


Daniel: Well, let’s wait. I don’t want to repeat lessons all over again


(Alex, Gerard and Jasmine enter)


Gerard: Hey, we are here


Daniel: It’s about time


Alex: Sorry Daniel. I was watching Paulo’s volleyball game. He is charming, isn’t he?


Daniel: Wait, there was a game? Who won?


Alex: Paulo of course. He is the best


Daniel: Well, we can’t argue on that. Let’s get down to business. I have prepared three songs with corresponding steps. The first one is ‘Little Things’ by One Direction


Alex: What! That is my favorite song. I can’t wait to dance in that song


Daniel: That’s why it’s the first we should learn


Walter: Well, Coral told me that it is a very sweet song


Gerard: Well, Ladies and Gents let us dominate the dance floor, shall we?


Daniel: All of you pair up with your dance partners for the dance


Jasmine: Wait, how about Alex?


Daniel: She will be practicing with me unless she wants to practice with the broom


Alex: I prefer the broom actually


(Daniel gives her a jokingly mad stare)


Alex: I’m just kidding


Daniel: Ok. This is more of a close position. Let me show you


(Daniel shows the steps)


Daniel: That’s it! Very good! Prepare for this Saturday’s meeting and the last practice will be on the Wednesday of next week. You may go


Coral: I have to see you soon Walt.


Jasmine: I’ll see you soon Ger


(Jasmine kisses Gerard of the cheek)


Gerard: I’ll just stay here


Walter: Me too


Alex: I guess I should leave too


Jasmine: Coral, I know this place where they sell fabulous shoes


Coral: No thanks. Do you know a place where they sell books?


Alex: I know a place


Jasmine: We could just go to the mall. It’s like the place to buy anything. But can we go to the fashion shop first? I saw a dress that fits perfectly on you


Coral: Great


Alex: After that, we can go check some books. We could check the new Twilight movie afterwards


Coral: Sounds like fun


Daniel: What are you ladies talking about?


Alex: Oh nothing.


Coral: We have to go


Jasmine: Ciao


(Girls exit)


Walter: Dude, when will you ask Seashell out?


Daniel: I don’t know dude


Gerard: Dude, word on the street is, another guy wants to ask her. Ask her now if I were you


Daniel: But …


Gerard: Just do it


Daniel: Ok fine


Gerard: Now let’s watch ‘Hunger Games’


Walter: Katniss kissed Peeta


Gerard: What? But Gale …


Daniel: Oh God


(All exit)
