-not 'cause l love you so much...

Well, you have to

You lay down on the floor

virgin in the world...

No... everybody does it
at some point...

Yeah, but maybe not me...

Okay, next subject...

''The first kiss with your sweetheart...
What should it be like...?''

Emotional and very wet?
Wild and passionate?

Bye mum...

You're leaving?

Oh... Mum said you can come
for dinner again, if you feel like it...

Are you listening to me?
