[gentle acoustic music plays]
[singing in French]
[music building]
Nicolas!
Would you feel better if I waited here?
No.
No. Please come with me.
[Nick's dad chuckles]
[in French] You've grown so much!
What happened? Playing a lot of rugby?
Yeah, a bit.
[in English] This is my dad, Stéphane.
This is my
- I'm Charlie.
- [Stéphane] Nice to meet you, Charlie.
Coffee? Coffee?
[Stéphane and waiter speaking French]
[in English] So you meet Nick in school?
Yeah.
[Stéphane] Ah, great.
So good to see you in Paris!
You never visit.
Oh, uh
When he was younger,
he would visit every summer. [chuckles]
When do you graduate? Must be soon now.
Uh, I've still got two more years left.
Ah. [chuckles]
I would have invited you this summer,
but Martine is having
this new kitchen fitted.
The apartment is a mess. [chuckles]
That's okay. Um
You know, I'd still like
to meet her sometime, if you wanted me to.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Perhaps someday soon, mm?
Now, tell me about this school trip.
Have you been seeing the sights of Paris?
Yeah, most of them. Uh, we went
to the Eiffel Tower, uh Sacré Coeur.
- The Louvre this morning.
- Yeah.
- It's been really fun.
- [phone rings]
Excuse me for a moment.
You doing okay?
I think so.
[speaking French]
[sighs] I'm sorry, boys.
Something has come up,
and I just can't get out of it.
Oh, uh
[Stéphane] But I haven't told you my news.
I'm coming to England next week.
- Small business trip.
- Oh, um
You should come to dinner.
I'm sure Mum would be okay with it,
and David will want to see you.
I miss that boy.
Ha! We'll see. I'll talk to your mother.
[in French] Keep up with the rugby.
Girls love rugby players.
[Stéphane chuckles]
David always had lots of girlfriends
when he was your age.
[in English] Was good
to meet you, Charlie.
Wonderful to meet one of Nick's friends.
Yeah. You too.
[in French] I'll call you later.
Huh?
[wistful music plays]
Wow.
That was fast.
I really thought
I could talk to him about you.
It's okay.
There'll be other chances.
He just doesn't
He doesn't know me.
I mean, he knows I like rugby, and
that's it.
Let's walk back to the coach.
You can rant about him
the whole way there.
Okay.
- Have you still not found him?
- Oh!
- Uh No.
- No.
I have something to share.
Me and Elle kissed.
- [all gasp]
- No way.
- No, you didn't!
- Yes!
No, you didn't!
We kissed.
[all scream]
[Charlie] I'm so proud of you!
[Isaac] Oh my God, Tao,
you have to tell us everything.
Well, she kind of initiated it.
I I I literally just went for it,
and I thought it was a mistake.
- But it wasn't a mistake!
- And then we kissed again.
- Ah, but I kissed her that time.
- Oh my God! No you didn't!
- Then the third kiss was, like, amazing.
- Three times?!
This is the best thing
that's ever happened!
Wait, so what does this mean?
Are you two dating?
I don't know. We literally had
our first kiss like five hours ago.
- You need to talk. I'll text the girls.
- Wait.
- What are you sending?
- "Well, we should explore the hotel."
You have to ask him to be your boyfriend.
I'm sure he'll say yes.
- [phone chimes]
- I don't know. It's It's too too soon.
- [Sahar and Darcy] Do it!
- Guys, look!
- Ooh!
- Shall we go?
Let's go!
[Elle] We definitely shouldn't be
sneaking around this late.
[Tara] Well, it's my birthday tomorrow,
so what I say goes!
- [giggling]
- [girl] Sh!
Come on! Come on, we're going. Let's go!
Sh! Sh!
[Darcy] Let's go!
[giggling]
[whimsical music plays]
[both chuckle]
[Tao] Sh! Sh!
So, like, are we
- What were you gonna say?
- Uh I I
I I forgot.
Finally.
If you even think
about giving me another hickey
- I wasn't thinking about that!
- You so were.
How are you feeling?
Fine.
Charlie, you literally fainted
on me today.
But how are you feeling
about seeing your dad?
You wanted to come out to him.
I know I've been stressed
about coming out,
but I don't think I realized
how stressed out you've been about it.
I get stressed about everything.
- You're not special.
- Charlie.
And it doesn't matter
how I feel about it anyway.
It's your coming out.
- You're the one who's going through it
- Charlie.
It matters to me.
[Mr. Farouk] Boys!
It's past 11. You should be in your room.
Go on now.
[Mr. Ajayi] Couldn't have let them off?
Pretty sure I did the exact same thing
at that age.
Sneaking around like that.
With a boy.
You never did anything like that?
[Mr. Farouk exhales]
[machine beeping]
Well, when you don't figure out you're gay
until your late 20s,
you tend to miss out on those
beautiful gay teenage experiences.
Hmm.
[beeping]
Probably a bit late for me to have
any youthful moments of discovery.
[tuts, inhales] Don't think there's
an age limit on those, to be honest.
[playful music plays]
You flirting with me?
Maybe.
Ah Come on.
We should head back.

Imogen got a boyfriend last year

Charlie.
Come on. I know you've loved me for years.
[screaming]
Oh my God!
Oh my God.
[kid 1] I dare Charlie
to kiss
James.
You're only saying that
'cause of the hickey rumor, and
it wasn't James.
Yeah.
I mean,
I don't care, so
[kid 1] Fine. I dare Charlie to kiss
Ben.
Come on. Like, we've literally
We've literally just broken up.
- [kid 2] Come on, it's just a dare.
- No. No way.
That isn't even funny.
I barely know Charlie.
- [kid 3] Don't be boring.
- [kid 4] It's a game.
[Ben] No. This game is so stupid.
I'm tired anyway.
- [kid 3] Always making a scene.
- Boring.
[door slams]
- Can I do a truth instead?
- [kid 1] Okay then.
Who gave you the hickey?
What? Can we just move on from this?
It's too personal.
Someone might get outed.
[kid 1] What's the point of truth or dare
if we're allowed to keep secrets?
I know who it was.
[poignant music plays]
Me. We're dating.
- Oh my God, I called it.
- [kid 6] That's really cute.
- [kid 7] It was him?
- [kid 8] Nick?
- [kid 9] How long have you been going out?
- A few months.
- [kid 10] We were saying it the other day.
- I never would've guessed Nick was gay!
- I'm
- He's
- [both]bi, actually.
- But yeah.
- So
- Do you want us to keep it a secret?
We're okay with people knowing.
I'm sorry to ruin this very lovely moment,
but I think I'm gonna be sick.
[commotion]
Mr. Farouk!
[banging on door]
I'm going to pretend
I believe you have food poisoning.
Just try and take some deep breaths.
I'll get you a sick bag
[Darcy retches]
- [coughs]
- Ooh.
[Darcy spits, coughs]
Why did I get into teaching?
It's okay. It's okay.
[dreamy music plays]
[both chuckle softly]
- All right.
- What are you doing?
[Charlie laughs] No!
Nah, I'm not gonna drop you.
Ooh, whoa. Okay.
Whoa!
- [Nick] Is that comfy? There we go.
- That's better. Ah!
[Nick] That's better. All right.
Now, can you remember
where we're meant to be going?
- We are going that way.
- That way?
- That way.
- I'm sure it was that way.
No, it's definitely that way.
It's that way.
[music building]
- You came out to a room full of people.
- Yeah.
Yes, I did.
Do you think
it's gonna get passed around, like
Do you think everyone in school's
gonna know about it?
Yeah. Probably.
I think I'm okay with that.
Nervous, but we'll be okay.
Yeah.
Since Tao and Isaac
are staying in the girls' room tonight,
I could sleep in here?
With you?
Well,
in that case,
I think you're gonna have to move over
'cause that's my side of the bed.
Well, I got here first, so
- Did you now?
- Yeah.
Hmm. Okay.
- Nick! You're crushing me!
- What are you gonna do?
- [Nick] It's my side!
- [Charlie] Tickle you! Absolutely, yes.
- Don't you dare!
- Tickle you!
We're gonna have to fight.
We're gonna have to fight.
Okay. We can fight.
[upbeat music plays]
- [both grunt]
- [Charlie] No way!
[both laugh]
Ow!
Argh!
- [Nick] This is unfair.
- [Charlie] Do I win?
[Nick sighs] I guess so.
[gentle music plays]
Payback.
Is this okay?
Uh
Yeah.
That didn't sound very sure.
Uh [chuckles]
Sorry. Um
I I do like it. It's just, um
I'm I'm not sure I'm ready
to do anything more than kissing.
No, I
I didn't think we'd do that right now.
Oh.
[chuckles]
I do I do want to.
Yeah. Me too.
- Eventually.
- Yeah.
Same.
And I'd only wanna do it if you did,
and if you didn't ever wanna do it,
then I wouldn't either.
- That sounded really cheesy.
- [chuckles]
Oh, I'm so embarrassing!
- I think we both are, to be honest.
- Why are we like this?
[chuckles] I have no idea.
Kissing's still okay though?
[Tao] Wait, wait, wait.
[Elle] Oh, Tao.
- [Tao] Don't! Don't tickle me.
- [Elle chuckles]
Hello.
My name's Elle.
I can draw art.
Look at my amazing art.
Am I amazing?
[Elle laughs]
Tao, sh!
- I'm sorry for ruining your birthday.
- Hey.
It's not ruined.
I wanted it to be perfect for you.
I have to be perfect for you.
Darcy, nobody's perfect.
[Darcy sniffles]
I love you.
I love you so much.
I know it sounds like I don't mean it
because I'm drunk,
but I really do mean it.
I love you.
[gentle acoustic music plays]
That's so gross. I was just sick.
I don't care.

I mean,
