Rules

Scene : Bruno and Lisa are at Caruso's. She's just told him that she hopes they can meet up again some time, when things aren't so complicated.

Lisa:
What were you thinking?

Bruno:
I was thinking..........you got a minute?

Lisa:
Sure.

False Alarm

One look in your eyes,
I kinda fantasised a tour.
Nothing serious, I didn't have a thing to lose.
I never knew a love disguised
Could make your body temperature rise
So what seemed like a fire

Was a false alarm
We woke the fire station with a false alarm
Cupid's on vacation and this false alarm,
We'll turn it into something next time

Midnight wandering, lonely and a little scared
I lost a part of me, something I never knew was there.
You said "Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained"
It sounds good but it doesn't explain
This question or blame and

False alarm
I never knew this was a false alarm
Every time we kissed there was a false alarm
The lights were on but no-one was home.

We should've known that we didn't have a prayer
We heard the warnings well enough
This might've been the answer to a dare,
But did I have to fall in love
Like the victim of a false alarm
No answer to this riddle
Called a False Alarm
Yet we're laughing in the middle of a false alarm
Now it's over
And I'm missing the fun.

Lisa gets up and goes over to the jar resting on top of the piano. She takes out 2 dimes and drops them in the jar.

Bruno:
Two dimes? I thought I did better than that.

Lisa:
You did. The dimes are for a purpose. The first is so that you can call the school and tell them they can use your music. The guy I fell in love with isn't selfish with his talents.

Bruno:
(Considers that for a moment) That'll get used. What's the other one for?

Lisa:
That's so you can call me in a couple years time.......when the rest of the world grows up to our level.

She reaches out and touches Bruno's face, as the camera pulls back, and the screen shrinks to black
