Narrator: Losing someone we love can cause us to realize that life was only given to us temporarily. It may cause us to see that every moment we live should be a precious keepsake. It should be a moment of celebration and laughter, a moment where we know that there would be no regrets for the things we do. Death comes at very awkward times, and can cause people to be torn apart, or cause people to come together.
Bella: Hey! Vote for me for student body president….Vote for me for student body president….vote for…Oh hey Georgette!
Georgette: Hey…what’re you doing?
Bella: Oh, I’m just, you know, handing out flyers for the campaign. Officially starts today you know!
Georgette: Yes, so I realized, I was planning on actually…
Bella: Oh right! Helping me?! I actually had a plan for you. I want you to be my campaign manager! Please, please, please?
Georgette: But I….[she stops and thinks….]…..Fine!
[Bella jumps up and down and then hands Georgette the bulk of the flyers she had in her hand.]
Bella: You can start with that and maybe later we can get together and talk tactics? [she leans over and kisses Georgette on the cheeks…] Love you! [she walks away]
[Georgette closes her eyes, sighs and bites her bottom lip, upon her opening her eyes she notices that Gevon is approaching her and quickly.]
Gevon: Georgette….I need your help, I mean, I just don’t know what to do right now, I think I screwed up everything, and soon she is going to be pissed with me, you know?
Georgette has a confused look on her face and she signals to stop him from babbling.]
Georgette: Ok G….let’s walk and talk…and slowly to….what exactly is going on?
Gevon takes a deep breath in and then calms himself
Gevon: So Kimberly must’ve seen me with this other girl yesterday, except I wasn’t with another girl. The girl simply came up to me and began to kiss me and everything and so Kimberly thinks I was just there kissing her and everything and now she is threatening to tell Drew and I don’t know what to do because she won’t believe me once Kimberly tells her.
Georgette stops and looks up at him, then taking a deep breath in she shakes her head.
Georgette: This is deep….But just, just sit down with her and tell her the truth before Kimberly does. Drew really would love that and she trusts you. Just, let her know how you feel about her and everything. You do love her right?
Gevon: I….love is…I, love is such a strong word…I think I do…
Georgette: Gevon, put away the machoness, Drew does not want to hear you think you love her![she says and then walks away swiftly]
At the Gym
There is a note posted on the door, and many assume it is the list of who made the Basketball team, only, they’re wrong.
Vincent: Coach is not here because….[he reads aloud
Shawn: Oh my God V….
Vincent: This can’t be true…Thompsons….Thompson’s dead?
[Shawn looks around at all of the boys that had gathered at the door in expectation of list, all, now looking down at their shoes and sad. Shawn pushes through them…angry]
[In the hallway]
[Kimberly is walking away angry as well, she collides with Shawn who was not looking where he is going!]
Kimberly: What the hell is your problem Shawn?
Shawn: What the hell is yours? I’m just not into this arguing bull today Kimberly, one of my friends just died okay? And I just found out he was in the hospital yesterday, so if you can excuse me I think I need to lock myself somewhere and cry! Hope that doesn’t ruin your pretty little plans for today! [He shouts at her and then continues walking away, his eyes glossy as he pushes through the exit of the school]
[Kimberly realizing what he had said gulped. And a sweat drained from her forehead.]
Kimberly: Oh damn…
[Keira, who had just turned the corner and noticed what happened quickly walked over to Kimberly]
Keira: Kimberly? What’s wrong? Where did Shawn go?
Kimberly: Thompson Keira. He’s dead!
[Keira gasps and then she swiftly runs after Shawn.]
Keira: Shawn! Shawn!...Baby please, Shawn! [She says as she is running after him, she stops when he finally turns around and the two begin to cause a scene in the parking lot.]
Keira: Baby, I’m sorry…I’m so so sorry. [ She wraps her arms around him and places his head on her shoulder. Shawn begins to break down and Keira cries along with him] It’ll be fine baby…I promise…it’ll be fine….[she closes her eyes]
[Vincent, who was now standing in the doorway of the entrance of the school sees this, and he walks away, stopping beneath a brush tree, leaning against it and sobs.]
Vincent: Why so soon bro? Why so soon? Why did you have to go and leave me first! I….I….
[The coach who was standing in the parking lot, placed on his black sunglasses and closed his eyes as the scenes of students pressing against another student and crying on each other shoulders. His lips are trembling as he removed the reef from his car and slowly progresses from the car park up the small steps of the front entrance…and finally placing it on the door of the school…He finally walks away without saying a word, finding himself to his desk and crying as he places his head on his desk…]
Gevon: Drew…I must talk with you….seriously…
Drew: Gevon, I’m late for class, can this wait? I’ll see you soon okay? I love you [she kisses him on the lips briefly]
Gevon:[ But I….
Bella: Sad day isn’t it?
[Gevon realized that Bella had walked up behind him and he sighed before finally biting his lips and answering…]
Gevon: Yeah, I know what you mean…I, I just wish I could talk to my girlfriend some time today…I mean, not overshadowing the fact that someone died…
Bella: You don’t have much friends here, do you?
[Gevon looks at her a bit stunned, before he finally admitted]
Gevon: What does that have to do with me and Bella or Thompson, Bella?
Bella: Well, you see, if you want friends, you have to do what all of us populars do…come on, I’ll show you new boy… [She smirks, then takes his hands and leads him]
AT LUNCH
Georgette: I’m sorry about the loss Shawn… I know this must be hard on you…
Shawn: Don’t worry about it…thanks…
Keira: George, I got it from here…
[Georgette gets up from the table and hugs Keira and then Shawn]
Keira: I love you, okay?
[Shawn leans on Keira’s shoulder as he pushes away the plate that was in front of him. He closes his eyes as he began to think about his early child hood days with his old friend.]
[Kimberly had approached Drew on the lunch line and had guided her away to the outside]
Kimberly: Ok…so I know I am not the best of friends Drew, but I don’t want to see you hurt…Gevon is not who you think he is…
Drew: Look Kimberly…I really don’t feel like discussing this right now with you, we have already been through these days and Kim, quite frankly I don’t even know who is my friend these days. And all I have now is my academics and Gevon and so please…I know Gevon loves me…
Kimberly: But I saw him kissing another woman Drew! Has he told you he loved you with those same lips Drew?
[Drew looks up into the concerned eyes of Kimberly and then walks away, pushing through the entrance and walking into the lunch area once again.]
[Georgette was just leaving and she had been snubbed by Drew as she pushed into the cafeteria, she then noticed Kimberly standing up alone and almost in tears.]
Kimberly: Thank God Georgette…I just need someone to….[she says crying]
[Georgette a bit unsure of what exactly is going on, takes Kimberly and hugs her…she was just about to tell her her problem with Bella but she refrained, allowing her shoulder to be Kimberly’s resting place.]
Georgette: It’ll be okay…I’m here for you friend…
Kimberly: Everyone hates me now George, everyone! And now I am responsible for someone’s death George…I’m a murderer and no one wants to be a friend with a murderer. [she cries]
[Georgette, unaware of this fact, looks up into the sky and then back down at Kimberly’s head, she was confused, and she didn’t know what to do next.]
Georgette: C’mon Kimberly…I’m taking you home. You need to rest….
[Drew is finally inside of the cafeteria area but stops in her tracks as she looks up at a railing to see Bella and Gevon]
[Gevon is shirtless and Bella is wearing his shirt]
Bella: Hey ladies…welcome the new guy into the clique! [she laughs, playfully knocking Gevon as the cafeteria bursts into applause and interest]
Drew: Gevon!! Gevon!![she screams at the top of her voice angry]
Girl: SHHHHHH!!! [she quiets the area]
Drew:Gevon! Tell me that you love me! [she says in near tears as she looks up at him from the floor before, her eyes staring into that of his.]
[Gevon looks around and then into Drew’s eyes]
Gevon: I….I….
Drew: Exactly what I thought Gevon! You are just like the rest of them! All of them! I hate you! I hate you so much! [she screams through her tears and runs out of the cafeteria!]
Gevon: Drew!! Drew!! Wait!!! [he screams, running down to try and catch her]
[The cafeteria is filled with whispers]
Bella: Oops? [she says to herself]
[Keira who has just looked up from Shawn’s face had realized what had happened and she had a small smirk on her face.]
Keira: What goes around….comes around….[she says to herself]
In Georgette’s Car
Georgette: Damn Kimberly! How did you end up doing that? Does anyone else know about this? This is serious…
Kimberly: I know…I know….I just…I don’t know George…Only…only…STOP THE CAR!
[Georgette immediately presses breaks and stops in the middle of the road as she gasps.]
Georgette: What’s wrong Kimberly?
Kimberly: Keira knows…and Shawn is with her. You must tell her to keep quiet! Tell her please, oh my God Georgette, I’m going to jail…I’m going to jail. [she says frantically]
Georgette: Wait…wait Kim…I’ll call her now…just calm down and be fine…it’ll be okay. [she says as she catches her breath]
Narrator: Death comes in many ways. It can come in the form of a life loss, when we end a friendship or when a relationship turns for the worst. Yes, death can cause a lot of things to simply fall apart. We as humans always try to prevent death from happening. But what happens when we cross directly in the path of death?
[Keira’s phone is answered.]
Georgette: Keira, it’s Georgette. Where is Shawn? Whatever you do, don’t tell him about the accident! You hear me? Don’t!
Shawn: What accident? [he answers]
[Shawn looks up at Keira who had returned with their drinks]
Shawn: What accident?
Georgette: Shit! [she hangs up]
Narrator: We may end up regretting we ever did!
_______________________ Notes form the Producer: This episode really was one of the hardest I had to write so far. It was my main focus this episode to sort of tie things together, for example the death to the relationship of Keira and Shawn and really linking in Gevon into the mix of drama that is currently happening. I would say this is really a build up to a big turning point in the plot as we are really seeing the true nature of some characters. As always, I appreciate your comments and predictions. Sorry for the side pictures this episode, but they shall return some time next week! Thanks for reading!
