16 year old Penelope worries that she's a bad kisser... and her best friend is most certainly not willing to test the theory. (1 Scene)

Indefinitely Penelope- Scene 2
Penelope
Would you make out with me?
Matt
Woah. No. Wow. We've been friends for way too long. Ew.
Penelope
Why wouldn't you make out with me? Is there something wrong with me?
Matt
I just ate... I'm not really prepared to have this conversation with you.
Penelope
I'm totally normal looking, and I have nice b***s- sure, they're not huge, but they're proportionate. I mean, I'm short and skinny, like how huge do my b***s need to be- so why wouldn't you want to make out with me?
Matt
Maybe it's because you're lecturing me about the size of your b***s.
Penelope
You're avoiding the question. Why wouldn't want have sex with me?
Matt
Look. You have a nice personality-
Penelope
A nice personality? Are you kidding me? That's like the kiss of death. No one wants make out with a nice personality. (beat) If you'd never met me, would you make out me?
Matt
If I'd never met you, I wouldn't know you, so I'm pretty sure I couldn't make out with you.
Penelope
Thanks for that.
Matt
I mean, I guess so. You're pretty-
Penelope
That's disgusting. Don't ever tell me I'm pretty again.
Matt
Don't flatter yourself. I was about to tell you that you're pretty annoying. I don't even know what you want to hear at this point.
Penelope
I want to hear that you'll make out with me! (beat) Or that you would. You know. If I wanted you to.
Matt
So do you?
Penelope
Do I what?
Matt
Want to me to make out with you?
Penelope
Dear god. No. I don't want to make out with you. I want to know if you'll make out with me.
Matt
Isn't that the same thing?
Penelope
Of course not! Look. I'm not trying to be all 50 shades of cray here.
Matt
That's not a thing.
Penelope
Now it is. Am I destined to be unloved forever?
Matt
Stop with the crazy eyes.
Penelope
I'm not DOING crazy eyes. I'm freaking the hell out.
Matt
And why, exactly, are you freaking out?
Penelope
Because Austin told me that I'm a bad kisser. And I need you to make out with me and tell me if he's just being and idiot or if he's actually being serious.
Matt
And this is five minutes of my life I'll never get back.
Matt exits.
Penelope
Does that mean you'd rather have sex with me?
