Mizz: (slumps onto sofa) HOME SWEET HOME! Haha!
Ruth: Can’t talk… …need… …Jaffa Cakes……
*Ruth looks in cupboard for Jaffa Cakes, but finds that they are gone*
Ruth: (shouts angrily) MIZZZZZZZZZZ!!! KIIIMMMMMM!!!
*Kim emerges from bedroom somewhat dreamily*
Kim: What?????!!???
Ruth: (tears trickle down face) I want my JCs.
Kim: I swear, I did not, ever, TOUCH YOUR JAFFA CAKES! I haven’t eaten one since we moved here…
*Ruth starts searching frantically around room*
Ruth: Oww, it’s gotta be here somewhere, I had a full packet this morning…
*Ruth moves search to her bedroom and sees a figure moving about in the sheets. She freezes on the spot*
Ruth: M-mizz! K-k-kim! There’s a g-ghost in my r-room
Mizz: Look dude, watch and learn. There ain’t no such thing as ghosts where I come from
*Mizz leaps onto bed and pins the ‘ghost’ down on the bed. She pulls the sheet away and screams*
Ruth, Mizz and Kim: (looking horrified) JAMES????!!!???
James: (to Mizz) Girl, you’d make a pretty good wrestler… …ahem…
Kim: Ehm, yeah. But James, how comes you’re here? In our FLAT????
*James tries to wipe chocolate from his face*
Ruth: HE’S GOT MY JAFFA CAKES!!!
*Ruth jumps onto bed and grabs packet*
Ruth: (wipes James’ face) Aww, you mucky pup… …I can’t stay mad at you
Kim: (snaps) RUTH! He BROKE IN to our flat! You can’t just play with him, we’ve got to suss what damage has been done, and who let him in in the first place.
*Figure emerges from other room*
Matt: Er, I did.
Ruth: And you brought HIM home too, James?
*Another figure grins a gap-toothed smile in the distance*
Charlie: Not exactly…
Matt: (guiltily) I nicked Mizz’s keys while she was sitting on my lap.
Mizz: But… …what… …I have my keys!
*fumbles around in huge industrial sized pocket and looks confused*
Kim: But why would you do that? Why follow three stupid, spotty teenage fans home?
Mizz: (butts in) Oi, just cus I’ve got spots don’t mean you can diss ‘em… …I can shoot pus over 100 miles you know!
All except Mizz: EWWW!!!
*Charlie looks at Mizz as if he’s going to throw up*
Mizz: (to Matt) And I’ll do it to you if you don’t give me my keys back
*Matt hands over keys and shuffles away in disgust*
Kim: Back to the point, why did you follow us home?
Charlie: After we’d made a run for it, James realised he missed Ruth… …infact… … (shuffles from side to side) we kinda missed you all. And then Matt had Mizz’s keys with her address on it, so we decided to try and find you.
James: Pretty swish place too.
Matt: But I don’t think I’ll be missing Mizz anytime soon (shuffles away towards door)
Mizz: Haha, I AM scary after all! Whahaha! Ain’t that right, Ruth?
*Everyone looks at Ruth and James kissing in the corner*
Charlie: AHEM!
Kim: Ruthdude?
Matt: James?
*Ruth pulls away and sticks bottom lip out sadly*
Charlie: She’s 13 you know
James: Yeah, but if I were 30 and she were 23, who’s to judge?
Kim: (slightly teary eyed) You like her don’t you?
Mizz: (taunts James) You love her, you love her, you love her…
James: Why wouldn’t I? I just kissed her for pete’s sake
*Charlie stares at Kim and bites his lip*
Kim: What are you looking at, Charlie? (growls)
*pinches Charlie’s bum*
Charlie: Er… …Kim… …I…
Kim: Woah!
*Charlie leads Kim into another bedroom and locks the door from the inside*
Mizz: Oh that’s just great. We get a break in and it’s a happy ending. We have Ghostboy and Jaffa Cake over there (points to Ruth and James), we have Fishface in there (points to door) and… …OH AM I BEING THE ONLY SERIOUS ONE HERE? Am I the only one NOT loved up? (stares at Matt in weird way)
*Matt makes a face at Mizz, grabs her and puts her over his shoulder*
Matt: Sure you are, SURE…
Mizz: OI! Lay off my bum! Hey! Where are you taking me? (a crashing noise is heard) Oww Matt, I’ve got a head you know… (half shouting, half laughing) HEY! GUYS! Help me…
