Okay, here's the little mini-play I wrote, hope you like it. I may not post ALL of it now, but I'll see what I can do.
booth
by: Tyler Thompson
We open on an empty booth (seats 4) in the cafeteria at [insert your high school name here]. After a few moments of quiet, 4 students approach the booth and find their seats.
Louis sits in the right corner seat, his oldest friend
Ricky in right-aisle;
Hayden, the only girl, sits left-corner, and left-aisle is occupied by a student known only as
Joker.
Ricky: Do girls like giving blowjobs?
Louis: Are you serious?
Hayden: Really, Ricky?
Ricky: What, it's a legitimate question! Hayden?
Louis: Do you actually expect an answer?
Joker: What's a blowjob?
The others look at him, shocked.
Ricky: You know what, nevermind.
Joker: What?!
Ricky: You'll find out when you're older...I think.
Hayden: Anyway, guess what movie I saw yesterday?
Joker: Bridget Jones's Diary?
Hayden (surprised): Ye-yeah, actually. How'd you know?
Joker: Know what?
Hayden:...Were you spying on me last night?
Joker: Not
last night.
Ricky: Well that's classy.
Louis: Oh crap, I forgot!
Louis pulls his book out of his backpack. Inside is a packet. He begins reading and answering questions.
Ricky: Whatcha workin on there big guy?
Louis: Study guide for
A Doll's House. Act II is supposed to be due today.
Hayden: Don't worry about it, I just had that class, she doesn't check it.
Louis: You sure?
Hayden: Yep.
Moment of silence.
Louis:...Nah, don't wanna risk it.
Louis continues working.
Ricky: I read that. How do you like it so far?
Louis: It's pretty good, I dunno. Hayden, why does Nora change her mind about asking Dr. Rank for a favor?
Hayden: Because he confesses his undying love for her.
Ricky: I feel like Jeff Daniels is a really under-rated actor.
Louis: You said that two days ago.
Ricky: Yeah, but I feel like I didn't get an enthusiastic enough response from you guys, so I figured I'd try again.
Hayden: I admire your persistence.
Ricky: That's what she said.
Joker: Who?
Ricky: Your mom.
Joker looks around, confused.
Joker: Where?
Louis: He means your mom said it, Joker.
Joker: Said what?
Hayden (frustrated): Oh my god.
Hayden buries her face in her arms.
Ricky: Who came up with the nickname "Joker" anyway?
Louis: Hayden.
Hayden: Nuh uh, I thought Ricky did.
Ricky: Well I know I didn't. Joker, who started calling you Joker?
Joker: You guys have been calling me Joker?
Louis: Do you
ever pay attention when we talk?
Joker takes a drink from his carton.
Joker: My milk tastes funny.
Hayden: That's
orange juice.
Joker, surprised and confused, peers inside his carton.
Ricky: Hey Louis.
Louis: Yes Ricky!
Ricky: Who do you think would win in a fight between you and me?
Hayden: I'd actually like to see that.
Ricky: Well?
Louis: (thinks) You and me?
Ricky: You and me bro.
Louis: Hmmm... I think it'd be a close fight, but you would probably win.
Ricky: Oh really?
Louis: Yeah, I think you would.
Hayden: And why's that?
Louis: Ricky doesn't hold back.
Ricky: That I don't.
Hayden: What do you mean?
Louis: I mean that once we start fighting, we're not friends anymore until it's done.
Ricky: You betcha buddy.
Ricky pats Louis on the back.
Louis: Hayden, how does Mr.s Linde plan to help Nora?
Hayden: She's going to convince Krogstad to drop the blackmail, I think.
Ricky: Hey you guys, who do you think can snap their fingers the loudest?
Hayden: Me.
Louis: Me.
There is a long pause. Suddenly, all 3 start snapping, trying to be the loudest. Joker begins clapping his hands, even after the others stop.
Ricky: Dude, what are you doing?
Joker: I'm snapping my fingers...
Hayden: That was clapping your hands.
Joker: No,
this is clapping your hands.
Joker begins clapping his hands.
Hayden: I know.
Joker: Exactly.
The others stare at him, amazed.
Ricky: I can't tell if you're stupid, or if you're just crazy.
Joker pulls out several condiment packets from his pocket.
Joker: Ooh honey packets, I forgot I had these!
