(Monday)

Sage: Wanna go to the dance with me!

Random guy: Um no. I'm going with someone else.

(Tuesday)

Sage: Would you like to accompany me to the dance?

Another random guy: Sorry, but I shall have to pass.

(Wednesday)

Sage: I'd really appreciate it if you popped into the dance with me.

Another random guy: Sorry but no. I have a girlfriend.

(Thursday)

Sage: Look, I made a bet with my friends that I'd bring a date to the dance.

Yet another random guy: I wish I could help, but I'm not even going to the dance. I'm leaving town for a few days tonight.

(later that night)

Sage: *sigh* Why is this so hard?

Imaginary Angel: It's not hard, you're just asking the wrong people.

Imaginary Devil: I agree, you're horrible at getting dates.

Sage: Ugh! I did not ask for your opinion.

Imaginary Devil: Well I gave it to you, so deal with it.

Imaginary Angel: Ignore him. You'll find someone by tomorrow evening.

Sage: Who else is there to ask?

Imaginary Angel: There will be someone.

Imaginary Devil: I think you chased away all the boys on Monday.

Sage: Go away.

*Imaginary Devil vanishes*

Imaginary Angel: See, he was no help.

Sage: You can go now too.

*Imaginary Angel vanishes*

Sage: OK. I will find someone. I have all of school tomorrow.

(Friday at lunch)

Anna: So, did you find someone?

Sage: I've asked a few people.

Lili: You don't have someone do you?

Sage: No.

Josh: Looks like you're going to lose the bet.

Sage: Technically I still have until 7:30. Something might happen.

Carter: You have 7 hours and only the next three are at school.

Sage: But there are four hours not in school. Nobody said I couldn't invite somebody that doesn't go yo this school.

Anna: You know someone?

Sage: It just so happens I do. My next door neighbor, Felix. We're very good friends.

Josh: OK.

************************************

(after school)

(Sage knocks on Felix's door.)

Felix: What's up, Sage?

Sage: I need a favor.

Felix: What is it?

Sage: My school is having a dance tonight, and I need a date.

Felix: I really wish I could help, but my mom has me doing stuff tonight.

Sage: OK.

Felix: But, hey, if I get it done early enough, I will go with you.
