SHE WOULD NEVER GO WITH ME (WERE I THE LAST GIRL ON EARTH) INT. BEDROOM – NIGHT JACK and SHANNON are laughing and giggling while sitting on her bed. She’s wearing pajama pants and a tank-top. He’s wearing boxers and a t-shirt. They’re sitting close together, facing each other. SHANNON (Smiling) I’m pretty sure I’m going to win this time. JACK Well, considering the fact that I’ve won every time we’ve played so far, I kinda doubt it. SHANNON But this time I have a secret weapon. JACK Is that so? SHANNON (Nodding) Yup! JACK And what would this secret weapon be? She leans in closer and taps him on the nose. SHANNON If I told you it wouldn’t be a secret, would it? He leans in even closer, their faces almost touching, and taps her on the nose like she did him. JACK Whatever it is, it’s not going to work. She grabs his hand and moves it out of her face but doesn’t let go. SHANNON Wanna bet? JACK Maybe. What are we betting? SHANNON Hm… how about… if I win you have to make dinner all week? JACK Okay. If I win? SHANNON That’s up to you. JACK Alright… if I win you have to go out on an actual date with me. SHANNON That it? JACK That’s it. SHANNON I think I can handle that. JACK But you have to treat it as a real date, okay? SHANNON So, you want me to say how your butt looks good in those capris and how much that top brings out your eyes? JACK You don’t have to pretend I’m a girl, you know. SHANNON I thought it would make things more fun. JACK More fun for you or more fun for me? SHANNON (Giggles) I think I could make it fun for the both of us. JACK (Smiles) I like how that sounds. She playfully pushes him on his back and straddles him. He tries to get up but she pins his arms to the bed. She puts her face close to his and the both smile. SHANNON Are you ready for it? JACK For what? SHANNON For my secret weapon. JACK Bring it. She smiles and leans over to the nightstand by her bed. She takes a CD out of her CD player and replaces it with a new one. She pushes play and skips ahead a few tracks. She goes back to her position on top of Jack as music starts to play. She crosses her arms and props herself up on his chest. She leans in close. SHANNON So, what do you think? JACK This is your secret weapon? SHANNON Yup. JACK I think it’s going to take more than a song, although a good one, to put me to sleep. SHANNON The song’s not it. JACK Then what is? She smiles and gently kisses him on the lips then curls up against him, her head and arm on his chest. He lays there as he was. They’re silent for a moment and the song continues to play. JACK That’s a fucked up weapon. She smiles. JACK Shannon? SHANNON Yeah? JACK Why do you do this? SHANNON Because I like doing this with you. There’s a moment of silence. JACK Why won’t you just date me? SHANNON You know why. JACK So you like me enough to do stuff like this all the time, but you won’t actually date me because I have a penis? SHANNON Jack… JACK Sorry. It’s just…I don’t know to feel about all this. SHANNON Would dating me change how you feel? JACK I wouldn’t be so confused. I’d know you feel the same about me. She raises herself a little and kisses him again. She looks him in the eye. SHANNON You confuse the shit out of me. I’m happy when I’m with you and I feel weird when I can’t be with you, even when I’m with someone else. I don’t what that means exactly. Is that about how you feel? There’s a slight pause. JACK Yeah, pretty much. She lies back down and he runs his fingers through her hair. JACK Is there any chance at all of us being anything more than this? SHANNON No, I don’t think so. JACK Are you sure? She smiles and kisses him again but this time it’s a deeper, longer kiss. JACK I love you. You know that, right? SHANNON Yeah, I know. FADE OUT: |
