For the First Time

Ben:

Okay. This is important.

Potentially the most important night of my life.

Everything hangs on the decision I am about to make!

I cannot make it lightly, nor can I shirk it.

All right, let's do this...

Black T-shirt or grey T-shirt?

Which do I pick?

Which will look better?

What is the perfect shirt that will get her in the mood to turn to me and say...

'I'd like to stay'...

I'm going with grey.

Shave and a spray,

That's what'll seal it.

Show her your passion's hot

And she'll feel it start to rise

Wait, that isn't what I meant

Slow down or you'll prevent the main event!

After three whole weeks I'm feeling kinda nervous.

Three whole weeks and she's finally coming to mine.

So what if the guys that she usually dates

All have money to burn and have country estates?

This pasta bake is the best she'll ever taste!

For the first time,

It's a chance I'm not willing to waste.

But what happens if the time comes.

And I can't believe my luck,

The lights are dim and as I lean in

She says-

Ami:

Are we boyfriend and girlfriend?

Ben:

****!

Ami:

Because I've had bad experiences in the past.

I'm not going down this road unless I know where it's heading.

Ben:

I would never do anything to hurt you, Ami.

You're amazing - and that's a lovely blouse!

Here, let me help you out of it.

Ami:

Ben, you are so naughty!

And please don't change the subject.

Ben:

Stop and rewind!

How did we get here?

Really it's just three weeks since we met,

We're doing fine now commitment's come along!

Don't get me wrong,

But that C-word is strong...

Right! Put on a song,

Get her distracted

What if she dumps you there

'cause you acted like a ****?

She said one word, you ran!

Just do the best you can and be a man.

Then it's one less night of the week playing with your...Xbox.

One less night of the week

Down the pub with your mates

But there comes a time when you have to let go.

To put down that pint and go with the flow.

Say goodbye to fun,

This bachelor is done

For the first time,

When she asks,

Could I be 'the one'?

Ami:

I'm not being unreasonable, am I?

Ben:

Of course not. I'm guessing that's a front-fastening bra.

Ami:

If this is going to be a proper relationship,

We have to get a few Things straight right now.

Ben:

I've got a bad feeling about this.

Ami:

If we are girlfriend and boyfriend,

I'll be expecting flowers every time we meet.

And chocolates and shoes and handbags.

And then there are the dinner parties.

Ben:

Dinner parties?!

Ami:

Wait till you meet my friends!

Araminta and Poppy…

Ben:

Nights on end of unrelenting misery!

Ami:

And Bruno and Cara…

Ben:

With people talking about their jobs and kids!

Ami:

Now on the subject of kids...

Ben:

Woah!

I'm an artist first and a boyfriend last

And you'll make things worse, if you move too fast

I'm twenty-nine and having a blast

La La La La La La La

Ami:

I love you Ben.

Ben:

And just like that, I'm a rabbit caught in the headlights

Now I've got to say it back or I'll break her heart

And I want to say it.

Sure I want to say it

But does it have to be so soon?

When it's working like this.

We could leave it... a year

So don't feel trapped and I've lost my fear of what is new.

For the first time, I could fall in love with...

Hello?

Ami:

It's me.

I'm sorry but I'm really early.

Can I come up, or do you need more time?
