PREMISE: You used to work together, but the listener has left the job so you finally go on a date. This scenario has the both of you on the performer's front stoop, making small talk to delay saying good night.

MOOD/PACING: Flirty, dreamy, rather awkward. In the dialogue, I have a lot of ellipses (dot dot dot) because the performer trails off quite a bit, because feeling a little shy/awkward, but very much not wanting the night to end.

NOTE: This script is on the shorter side because it was adapted from a longer NSFW version, available on GWAScriptGuild. Please feel free to improvise further, if you'd like!

All text in brackets or parens are to help inform the performer (not to be voiced). Cues for optional SFX included, but not 100% essential. Improvisation, gender flips, etc. are welcome. Make it your own "First Date", and have fun!


SCRIPT: "First Date with Your Old Office Mate" (F4M)

[Tone: Shy and tentative, yet slightly flirtatious tone in this section. Quiet voice, slow pace. Imagine the end of a great date, and you don’t want the night to end.]

(soft laugh) Well, thank you for a wonderful time…

Yeah, it was fun!

No… I don’t have to get up too early tomorrow… it’s such a nice night, isn’t it?

Mm hmm, yeah, we can sit on the stoop for a little bit. [optional SFX: sound of sitting down]

I love early Fall, you know, when the days are warm, and then at night, it cools off a little bit…
And you can just feel the first hints of colder weather… but it’s still warm. Yeah, that cusp of the change of seasons is amazing.

Well, anyway, I’m really glad that you reached out. I know we’ve been… kinda going back and forth for a while…

Yeah… right… well, I guess we couldn’t really go out when we were working at the same place, but, you know…

Now that I’m not there anymore, I guess… there’s, uh… less potential for awkwardness, I guess. (soft laugh)

Although I have to be honest, I feel a little bit awkward right this minute. (chuckles) I don’t know why… I felt like we had such an easy time tonight, it’s so easy to talk to you.

Yeah, it’s funny to be with someone that you’re so familiar with, in a certain context… and then, be with them in a different social setting… in a different context, right?

(shyly) Well, anyway, I hope we can do it again.

Yeah…? You do…? (voiced smile)

No, I’m not seeing anyone on a regular basis, you know… I have, uh, some people that I kinda hang out with, but… how about you?

You always seemed like you were rushing home, or rushing off of work. I always felt like you were going home to somebody. (sheepish soft laugh)

Oh, no? You were going to class? Oh! You were very secretive about it.

Well, I guess I never thought to ask. I mean, I don’t ask such things, you know…

But, um, yeah, that’s cool. (shivers) Oh God, did you feel that? That breeze was chilly just now.

Oh, thanks! That’s nice, your jacket – aren’t you cold, though? Oh, no? You run warm? (chuckle)

I’m sure you’re just saying that to be nice. It *is* really nice of you… I mean, I could just go inside, I live here. (soft laugh)

… hmmm? (tentative/shyly) Yes, you can kiss me. I was hoping you would. (sound of soft kissing, quiet whimpers)

(soft astonished tone) Oh wow, you’re such a good kisser, who would have thought!

I mean… no… I don’t… I’m just not wired that way, you know. I don’t think about someone I work with in that way, at all. At all, I tell you. It’s just not… just not in my DNA, I guess.

No, honest. Oh… you did? (laughs) That’s such a guy thing, isn’t it??

(laughter in her voice for this part) I just remember seeing a meme somewhere, there was a picture of a guy, and he was walking around… it was an illustration, right?
He had a semi hard-on, and there was, like, a speech bubble: He was basically saying, “Can I fuck you?” (laughs)
Yeah, and he was at the workplace or something, I can’t quite remember… he was standing behind a desk or a counter or something, and his coworker, a woman, couldn’t really see. And he had this look, like, you know, a silly cartoon look? (laugh)
I don’t know, that’s just what I have in my mind when I think about… guys, you know… getting turned on at inappropriate places. I’m sorry! (laughs) I’m not saying that’s you. (more soft laughing)

Oh… oh, really..? Some of the guys had the hots for me, at the office??

Oh, my, I’m glad it was me that left. Meaning, if you had been the one that left and are telling me this now, and I’m still working there, I would feel really uncomfortable. (self-conscious laughter)

Oh, you think that where I’m working now, it’s probably the same? Well, aren’t you a big ol’ flatterer!

I don’t know… I mean… I guess if you go for sort of the “geeky girl in glasses” look, sure! (shy laugh)

Oh, yeah? Some guys find that hot? See… I’ve also heard that, and I always think that’s, kinda like, urban myth, you know?
No?? If you say so… (she gets cuts off for more kissing; appreciate whimpers, etc)

(whispers) Do you want to go inside? Yes, let’s go…

(Optional SFX: getting up, housekeys, door opening, door closing, etc)
