Sure Thing

EXT. "L" TRAIN STATION

A BOY and a GIRL are walking on the sidewalk. Four young male KIDS pass in the opposite direction, making quiet but obvious comments to themselves about the appearance of GIRL.

KID 1
Man...!

BOY walks quickly and passes GIRL. He gets to the station, opens the door, sees that the girl is still behind him, and holds it for her.

GIRL
Thanks!

BOY
Sure thing.

BOY walks to a turnstile but sees GIRL behind him heading for the same one. He goes to the other turnstile. He doesn't want to slow her down.

GIRL pays and goes through. BOY tries to do the same but his card doesn't work. He tries again. It doesn't work. He tries again and this time it works.

GIRL
(waiting for him)
I was going to say!

BOY
Haha, thanks.

They wait. Do they wait? They walk up the stairs and cross each other. He goes north. She goes south.
