Scenes with Dani Trant

9 scenes

You know you don't have to come along.

Dani

Are you sure you can find your way, it's an awful big town.

Are you always in the habit of going where you're not wanted or is this a new thing with you?

Dani

Are you always this nice to people you just met or are you practicin' up to be a horse's butt?

Have you ever been kissed before?

Dani

Sure. Lots of times.

Yeah... I'll bet. Well you just almost got yourself more than kissed, little girl.

Dani

I'm not a little girl.

You are too Dani! You're a little girl and you don't know what you're doing.

Dani

I want you to be the first boy I ever kiss.

I thought you'd been kissed "so many times."

[Long, awkward pause, then Court leans over and they kiss]

How was that?

Dani

Perfect.

Dani

I love you, Court.

Don't! Don't love me now. When things are so mixed up.

Well maybe if you were just a little bit older, you could understand.

Dani

If I were just a little older, I could do everything.

Now, Dani, you and Maureen are gonna be sisters for a long time. Maureen's been good to you all your days. Remember that.

Dani

Don't ask me to forgive her.

You got a right to be upset. You got a right to be hurt.

Dani

You don't know what she did.

I know enough. But I also know that Maureen's hurting real bad...as much as you...maybe even more. And if you get so involved in your own pain that you can't see when someone else is hurting, you might as well crawl into a hole and pull the dirt right in on top of you 'cause you'll never be any good to yourself...or to anyone else.

Dani

I'm afraid nothing's ever gonna make sense again.

Maureen

Maybe life's not supposed to make sense.

Dani

Doesn't that scare you?

Maureen

Yes.

Dani

I wish we could still talk to the Man in the Moon. Don't you?

Maureen

It would be nice.

Dani

Will we always talk like this?

Maureen

Always.

Dani

I love Elvis so much.

Maureen

You love everybody so much.

Dani

I do not.

Maureen

You do, too.

Dani

No I don't.

Maureen

Okay, you don't.

Dani

Well, I don't. Maureen, sometimes you make me feel like such a baby.

Maureen

You are a baby.

Dani

I wish I could be just like you.

Maureen

Don't talk silly.

Dani

It's not silly. You're the smartest girl in school, you're so pretty it hurts - the boys fall all over themselves when you walk down the street. And I'm just a lump.

Dani

I wanna know you.

You do know me.

Dani

I wanna know you more... I wanna know you all I can.

What do you wanna know?

Dani

I wanna know... your hopes.

Well... I hope your boobs will get bigger and your butt will fill out.
