The girl wonders whether or not they will be seen (1:38) and secretly hopes that they will. The girl resists telling the boy that she would rather talk and get to know one another better. The male’s perspective is heard as he feels pressure to show the girl physical affection and keep his peers believing they are having sex frequently (2:00).
