-The skate park, then?

-I don't know.

How about the pool?

Come on, I'll do a kick flip that'll blow your minds!

Hey, Dion. Do you want to come skateboarding after school?

No, thanks.

-I'm going dancing tonight.

-Really?

-Wow! Nice one.

Yeah, it should be good. Have fun.

-I'd love to go out dancing.

-Dream on, Monica.

The club's on the other side of town.

Yeah, there's no way they'd let us go that far.

-Hey, is this yours?

-Well now I can do it.

Hey!

What's got into her?

-Hey, do you want one of these?

-Huh?

I think this is yours.

You left it on the counter.

Oh, I'm such an idiot! Cheers.

I've got all my guitar music in there.

You play the guitar? Oh, wow!

Yeah, and if it wasn't for you,

I would have lost all my music.

No problem.

Here, our class is going dancing,

to celebrate finishing our exams.

Are you inviting me?

There'll be tons of people from school. It'll be fun.

-What's your name?

-Lara.

See you later, Lara.

SHE SIGHS DREAMILY

-What happened?

-Yeah!

Why were you running after Mark?

-Do you know him?

-Of course! He's in the class above us.

I've got tabs on all the good-looking boys.

Did you know he plays guitar? He left his music on the counter

and I went to give it back.

You spoke to him? Wow!

All right, so what time shall be meet up to go skateboarding?

If I'm going to beat Akira, I need some practice.

Wow! That's brilliant.

I may not be able to do the best flip,

but they'll flip out when they see my new helmet.

Mark invited you out dancing!

Wow! That means he likes you.

What about skateboarding?

Today we've got a chance to go dancing.

Come on, Akira. It'll be amazing.

It'll be amazing if they let us go.

Or have you forgotten that we'll have to cross town

-to get there?

-Mmm.

First question - someone you like invites you to something

that's miles from your house.

What do you do? A - you tell a lie

and go without asking your family.

B - you forget about it and don't go.

It's just too complicated.

C - you ask permission and hope for the best.

-No, Lara. Eres pequena todavia.

-Pequena?

You are too young to go to a club.

But not for this one. It's for under 18s.

No lo se. It's too far away.

I don't want you on the other side of town when it gets dark.

But I'll be with the others. Everybody's going.

Todos, Akira, Monica...

Por favor, por favor!

Mmm. So you'll all be together?

Si, all the time. Can I go then?

Vale, vale. Pero una cosa muy importante, Lara.

Mmm.

It's very important that you call me when you are there,

so I know you've arrived safely.

OK, I'll call you. Llamare!

And get the nine o'clock bus home.

It's the last one.

-Entendido?

-Si, si. I understand.

I'll get the nine o'clock bus, I promise.

My host mum wants me in by nine o'clock. Mmm?

Hi, guys! Are you going skateboarding?

Are WE going?

We're all going, aren't we?

We are going dancing!

You mean, you're just going to drop us?

You can come too, if you want.

Forget it!

We arranged to go skateboarding

and that's what we're going to do.

OK, suit yourself.

Let's go, girls!

GIRLS' LAUGHTER

CLUB MUSIC

This is way better than skating!

Come on!

PHONE RINGS

-Not skating?

-Can't be bothered.

The girls were out of order, changing their plans without telling us.

Too right!

Eh, Gabe...

..what if we went to the club, too?

-Do you think we'll be allowed?

-Let's find out.

CLUB MUSIC

You look like a robot, Monica.

Why are you dancing like that?

It's my shoes. They're killing me!

But they look cool, don't they?

(MIMICKING ROBOT) Yes, very cool.

Beep-beep.

Mark isn't here yet.

Lara!

-Oh!

-Come on, come and dance.

(ROBOTICALLY) Beep-beep-beep!

-Hi, Lara!

-Mark! Hi!

-I was being a robot.

-Can I get you a lemonade?

-Yes, please.

-Cool.

How romantic! Did you see that?

Monica, they're not getting married.

They're just getting a drink.

Hey, look who it is.

Hi, Tony. Hi, Gabriel!

They ignored us.

BOYS CHUCKLE

Lara, soy yo. I'm worried about you. Call me, OK?

MUSIC DROWNS RINGTONE

He's so nice!

Maybe he'll kiss you. Can you imagine?

We haven't even danced yet.

-What are you waiting for?

-I should just ask him?

We should think about making a move.

We can't hang about much longer, or we'll miss the bus.

But I can't go now.

Nor me. I want to do some more dancing.

Ten more minutes.

MONICA LAUGHS

Monica, Lara, I'll go without you.

AKIRA SIGHS

Second question.

You're out having a brilliant time,

but you know it's time to go home.

What do you do?

A - I just carry on dancing.

I don't care if I get home late.

B - I'm out of there like a shot.

I wouldn't even bother saying goodbye to my friends.

Or C - I'd have a last dance,

say goodbye, and get home on time.

Come on, Lara. We'll miss the bus.

I know, I know.

I just want to give Mark this drink first.

He's so handsome and so funny.

Yes, and he's dancing with another girl.

What?

Lara, Monica and Akira should be here by now.

We shouldn't have ignored them.

What if something's happened?

My feet are destroyed.

-Come on, let's go.

-Yeah, but we'll have to run.

It's ten to nine.

Your phone is wrong, Akira. It's five to.

We've only got five minutes!

ALL: Oh, no!

THEY PANT

Come on, Monica.

I can't.

-My feet hurt.

-Oh, no.

We've missed it.

We won't be able to get home.

We'll be out on the streets all night long.

Three girls, on their own.

Like in a horror movie.

MONICA CRIES

Oh, no!

This is a disaster.

Worse than it was already?

I forgot to call home.

I've got ten missed calls.

I'm going to be in so much trouble.

MONICA SCREAMS

It's only me!

-Gabriel.

-ALL: Tony!

We didn't see you at the bus stop, so we waited for you.

Thanks. We owe you one.

And to think we just dropped you and the skateboarding plans

and you came to find us.

-That's OK.

-I think I'm going to cry.

I've got to call home.

Hola. Soy Lara.

Yes, I'm fine. I'm really sorry.

I didn't hear my mobile.

We're at the bus stop.

I'm very disappointed, Lara.

Lo siento. I'm sorry.

What happened?

We were having so much fun and we lost track of time.

I'm really sorry.

OK, but I can't let you go out in the evenings for the time being.

You've let me down. You understand, don't you?

Si.

Third question.

If you had made a promise, do you think you could keep it?

A - no, I'd put it out of my mind

and just have a good time.

B - I can't trust myself to keep a promise,

so I'm never going to make one.

Or C - yes, I'd do my best to keep to my word

and not let anyone down.

If you answered mostly A, you're not going to win

people's trust like that, and that's sure to cause problems.

If you answered mostly B, relax,

thinking about other people doesn't mean you have to stop having fun.

And if you answered mostly C, well done!

You know how to balance keeping your word with having a good time, too.

Hey Lara, you can have these shoes.

Ah, ow, ow!

My feet are so swollen I can't get them on.

LAUGHTER
