Britney: checking her lipstick in the mirror Got a date tonight. Jealous?
no not really just don’t have a good feeling about it
rolls her eyes You're just jealous, Douglas. Admit it. You wish you were me, but you can't even grow a decent pimple on your chin.
look it’s not funny and no I’m not jealous I mean I’m happy for you Britney but I just don’t feel you know, good about this whole thing
leans back in her chair, crossing her arms Oh, poor Douglas is worried about me. Well, newsflash, buddy, I can take care of myself.
yeah I know but…do you really have to go out with him? I mean I know you have had a crush on him since freshman year but just maybe don’t go out with him because he doesn’t seem like your type of guy
smirks Are you my mom now, Douglas? Making decisions for me? Back off, bro. This isn't your concern.
I’m saying this as a friend Britney
stands up abruptly, slamming her hand on the table Friend? You think we're friends?
yes we are friends Britney, I mean we’ve been friends since sophomore year like everyone else has been friends with you for a long time
narrows her eyes Look, Douglas, I appreciate your concern, but I'm not going to let some random guy ruin my night.
it’s not about the random guy it’s about Alfredo, you have known him since freshman year and you said it yourself he’s not your type, so why are you going out with him tonight?
takes a deep breath, trying to calm down Okay, fine. Maybe I did have some doubts about Alfredo. But who cares? It's not like it's a permanent thing.
yeah but he has a bad reputation for treating girls the wrong way and sleeping around with them and stuff like that and I know you’re not like that you’re a nice girl and you don’t deserve that
pauses for a moment, considering Douglas' words Fine, you got me. Maybe I shouldn't go out with Alfredo tonight.
Britney? Are you listening to me?
puts her hand on Douglas' shoulder Hey, relax. I hear you, Douglas. I really do. Maybe we can hang out tonight instead. What do you say?
okay cool so where should we go?
smiles mischievously How about we hit up that new karaoke bar downtown? We can have a few drinks, belt out our favorite tunes, and forget about all the drama. Sounds like a plan to me!
grabs her purse and heads towards the door Let's go, Douglas. Time to shake off this bad vibe and have some fun!
wait but Britney aren’t we going to change our outfits first?
laughs Outfits? Who needs 'em? We're going to a karaoke bar, not a fashion show. Let's just be ourselves, rocking our own unique style.
yeah I guess you’re right but just to be clear you’re not upset or mad at me for interfering with your date night with Alfredo?
puts her arm around Douglas' shoulder Interfering? Nah, bro. I appreciate you looking out for me.
Yeah, I just didn't want to see you get hurt, you know?
gives Douglas a playful punch on the arm Aw, thanks for caring, Douglas. You're like a mini superhero, saving the day one concerned conversation at a time.
starts walking towards the karaoke bar, pulling Douglas along Come on, superman in training, let's go rock this night!
skips excitedly, pulling Douglas along Alright, let's make this night unforgettable! First stop, the karaoke stage.
great idea and hey isn’t that Dave and Nicole over there?
nods, scanning the crowd Yeah, that's Dave and Nicole! They're always up for some fun. Let's go say hi and maybe join them for a duet. What do you say, partner in crime?
waves enthusiastically Hey, Dave! Nicole! Over here!
grinning mischievously Alright, guys! Ready for a little karaoke showdown? Let's show off our vocal skills and bring the house down!
I’ll sing with you Britney if you sing “I walk away” by the Script
Deal! You know I can't pass up a chance to belt out some powerful pipes. Get ready for a performance that'll leave everyone starstruck!
