SCENE [Adagio]

They sit on the curb, admiring the storefronts, sipping coffee and smoking cloves.

CHARLOTTE. Cute.
ELLIOTT. I feel like we should go there.
CHARLOTTE. It looks closed.
ELLIOTT. Ummm, maybe tomorrow?
CHARLOTTE. We must get coffee again.
ELLIOTT. Oh yes.
CHARLOTTE. Date number two then, I’m excited!

ELLIOTT. [Blushing] It's entirely made of books. 
CHARLOTTE. The Christmas tree in the window?
ELLIOTT. Isn’t it yummy?
CHARLOTTE. I want that inked on my neck.
ELLIOTT. Brilliant … the part about?
CHARLOTTE. ‘Made of books.’
ELLIOTT. [Gasping] I just wet myself. [Pausing] I know a place.
CHARLOTTE. [Giggling] We’re basically engaged.

ELLIOTT. [Passing the cig] Praise her.
CHARLOTTE. [Taking a puff] Just as I am.
