A Short Play

Enter Ted

Ted

I can't wait for tonight. Going out to see a movie. Maybe dinner, maybe dancing. This will be the best night ever. Once everyone arrives. Now where are they? It's alomst five already.

Enter Steve

Steve

What are you bitching about now, Ted? Everyone will be here. You know none of them ever arrive on time. And your girlfriend is the worst.

Ted

Oh, like yours is much better? I think she purposefully sets her watch back just to make sure she is never on time.

Steve

Well, it's not like there aren't any other people coming around. There's Alex, and Dave. And they better show up soon.

Ted

Well, they better get here. Or else, we'll just leave without them.

Steve

We're not leaving without them. They are our friends. And you will never have sex again if you leave without Sarah.

Ted

Oh, yeah. Well, I guess we'll wait then.

Steve

Good then.

Enter Michelle (Steve's girlfriend)

Steve

Hey, sweetie.

Michelle

Hey honey. And how are we?

Steve

Fine. Fine. Just waiting for everyone to get here.

Michelle

Oh, they are just coming. Sarah is right outside. And I saw Alex pulling in.

Ted

So, where's Dave?

Enter Sarah

Sarah

He's coming, OK silly?

Enter Alex.

Alex

Hey guys, we ready to go?

Ted

Once Dave decides to arrive.

Sarah

Stop being such a worry. He'll be here in just a minute.

Steve

Calm down dude. He said he was coming. He'll be here. I bet he'll show up in the next few minutes.

Ted

You wish. He's not coming. Someone always has to ruin my day.

Michelle

You're the only one who ruins your day. The rest of us are having a fun time. Who cares if we are a little late? At least we are together, having fun.

Enter Dave

Dave

We ready to go now?

Ted

Yep, let's go.

Exit All

The End.
