Marcus: Hey Beth, enough of the slurping

Beth(thinking to herself): a boy just talked to me! OMG, It's Marcus Lee!

Beth is still smitten by the shock of a boy speaking to her. She still spends a few moments fishing for adequate words to say to Marcus. Her heart pounds so fast that she knocks her drink over.

Beth: OMG! He even knows my name. Oops! I've gone and spilled my drink. He is going to think I am a total klutz.

Beth bites the bullet and leans forward, looking sheepishly into Marcus's eyes

Marcus is unkind and dismissive. He flippantly interjects, dashing her hopes of some sort of dalliance.

Marcus: Fat chance of that happening. Don't take this the wrong way, but I don't hang out with the weird kids. Got a rep to maintain.
