i sure am glad you said you'd come out with me tonight mary sue.
i don't know if i ever said this to you before, but, well .  i think you're just about the keenest girl in the whole school .
oh yeah.
oh, i dunno bud. guess i'll have my usual cheeseburger and a cherry coke.
see the whole time we were in civics together, i really wanted to sit next to you--but you were always sitting between peggy jane and lisa anne.
 and you always seemed so smart and everything. like that report you did on "our town hall." gosh. i didn't know what i'd talk to you about.
hunh? oh, right .
so i know i haven't been steady with anybody, but i just don't want to rush it. you don't want to make a mistake with something that important.
i mean, there's kids that are even holding hands already but i figure there's plenty of time for that kind of thing later on. don't you?
anyhow .  i really wanted to come over and sit next to you in civics but .
what?
but where would we go?
lover's lane!

to be honest mary sue. i didn't think you'd want to come here until we'd been pinned for a little while.
oh, that's silly mary sue. how could you possibly pin me?
i think i better go home now mary sue .
