SCENE: the lockers
TIME: morning
[Kyle closes his locker, about to turn around when he feels someone squeezing him in a hug]
Oof!
Oh, Kyle, your message is so sweet. I mean, it's okay if you're different. The best people usually are, and you shouldn't be ashamed. So what if you have different interests? You're not here to make them understand that. You're here to live your life, and be a nice ice cream worker, and play Mario Kart-
That does sound pretty good.
-and I made you a whole lot more cookies, but the point is, you shouldn't change and all-
Camilla, you can let go of me now. People are staring.
Nope, I'm hugging you until you say yes.
[Kyle takes a long suffering sigh.]
Yes.
Well then, I hope you enjoy them, they're free of charge, since we're friends, you know?
Wait. What? Are you sure? I thought you still need the money for the auditorium and classrooms-
Yes, I'm sure. The happiness of my friend is more important than anything else.
I'm amazed. You know what?
What?
You're right. Come over to the ice cream shop later and I'll buy a free cone for you.
Isn't that illegal?
That's what friends are for.
Kyle Wilde, you honestly confuse me.
Don't think you do too?
