Do you want to keep the conversation going with the girls? Ask them questions about them. Everyone lvoes talking about themselves. Ask them what school do they go to. If they go to your school, ask them about their schedule. Find common grounds. Like if you have the same math class ask who her teacher is and share your funny experiences with that teacher. And ask them what kind of music do they like and talk about the artists you both like and the crazy stuff they've done or the albums you didn't like after X singer died and got replaced or whatnot :-p and the concerts you've been to. Ask them if they have pets. That kind of stuff. of course, don't throw different kind of questions all at once. Be topical. The topics they don't respond well to, change them. When they start talking about something, ask them about it. After they tell you their stories and you ask anything that was relevant and helped enhance the conversation (i.e. :what/when/where/who/why/etc.) then share your stories and experiences about the similar subject. The subject can be anything, from how the math teacher is such a jerk and how yiou pulled a prank on him or he failed you to how your dog Spot ran away and got ran over. Of course, if you do say anything that would cause the girtls to be sad (like a pet dying) make it so that they sympathize with you but be sensitive - do not laugh about it or sound like a jerk.
Good luck,

Ask lots of questions, but make sure it doesn't end up like some kind of interview. So once you've asked a question and she's answered, elaborate on her answer.. Carry on from her answer. Like if you asked her, for how long has she been smoking, and she says 5 months, you can say, "oh.. So how many do you smoke a day?" or something like that. I don't know much about smoking as I'm not a smoker, but just remember to make the converstaion flow, be open and collecting. Have an open mind and whatever is thrown at you CAN BE worked with! ;)

The key to keeping a conversation going is talking more about the other person then about yourself. People love to talk about themselves so act interesting and excited by what they are saying.
Instead saying
"hey"
"hey. how are you today?"
"good. you?"
"good, thanks"
have it more like
"hey"
"hey, how are you today?"
"great thanks, i'm just____"and say something about the weather, school, news, ideas ANYTHING.It's already stimulating ideas.
