TBA By GEORGIA MATTHEWS

INT. GIRLS BEDROOM - NIGHT Music playing in the background. DARCY WILLIAMS, 20 year old woman, wearing baggy pyjama tee-shirt and shorts. Currently applying her make up swiftly. She stares at her reflection in the mirror. She pulls and tugs her hair until it is perfect. She then strolls and bumps to the beat of the music. Darcy goes towards her wardrobe and open the doors. CUT TO: INT. BOYS BEDROOM - NIGHT JONATHAN WILLIAMS, 18 year old, wearing baggy hoodie and tracksuit bottoms. It is a dark bedroom - all is shown is a bed, wheelchair and wide space. Jonathan sits alone of a bed. Footsteps creek above through the ceiling. He fiddles and twirls about with his fingers. He dazes into the window, with the only part light hitting his face. He looks around grabbing anything to find. Jon grabs the pillow and throws it to the ground. He then slides into a ball to exclude himself away from everything. CUT TO: INT. GIRLS BEDROOM - NIGHT Darcy stands near her wardrobe. She takes off her tee-shirt and swiftly pulls a dress over her head. She walks over to the mirror, stares deeply, poses and walks back to the wardrobe. She pulls out dresses again and again. Not impressed with each one. She then changes into a different dress. She walks over to the mirror and is pleased with what she sees. She slumps onto the bed and slides her feet into her heels. Her phone begins to calls. Darcy holds her phone and stares at it intensely. She slides her finger across the phone and answers it. DARCY Hello. A DEEP VOICE is on the other end. DEEP VOICE (V.O.) You alright? So whats happening then. You sorted it out. Yes. DARCY Mmm... okay.

DEEP VOICE (V.O.) That isnt a proper answer. Yes or No! DARCY Yes, yes, yes. Done DEEP VOICE (V.O.) Good! See ya later babe alright. Darcy just ends the call and throws it into the bed. She suddenly stands up snatching all her belongings together and putting them in her purse. She exits the room and slams the door. CUT TO: INT. HALL WAY - NIGHT Loud thuds come from the stairs as Darcy runs down the stairs in her heels. She grabs the keys and scurries to the door. Jonathon appears slowing rolling from his room. Darcy is standing at the front door, ready to open it. Jonathon is waiting behind her. She freezes and does not turn around to him. There is silence in the atmosphere. JONATHON Darcy. Where you going? Long, silent and awkward pause. Darcy still does not turn around. JONATHON Darcy... DARCY Just out! Just, just. Stop it! Jonathon sits there completely shocked and confused by Darcys reaction. Darcy sighs and quickly walks out the door, slamming the door behind her. CUT TO: EXT. FRONT DOOR - NIGHT Darcy slams her body into the door and sighs. She leans there, still. She stares into the space. She sniffles her nose and stands up straight. Pulling her clothes together after. She begins to leave the drive way and walks to the bus stop.

CUT TO: INT. FRONT ROOM - NIGHT The house is completely silent. Not a sound coming from anywhere. Jonathon sits by the window and watches Darcy walk away. He fiddles and twirls his fingers around. The frowns his face in pain and anger. He fights away the tears and tries not to show emotion. CUT TO: EXT. STREET - NIGHT Darcy walks slowly to the bus stop. Strolling carefully and kicking her feet about. Her phone begins to ring. As she looks, she realises it is the man again. DEEP VOICE (V.O.) Hello, you left now? DARCY Yeah. DEEP VOICE (V.O.) Good. Glad you did not bring your fucking brother DARCY Mmm... DEEP VOICE (V.O.) What a stupid twat. DARCY Excuse me? Go fuck yourself! She screams down her phone and throws it across the pavement. She stands still. Her face is thrown into her hands. Slowly running her fingers through her hair, trying to push it away. She walks towards her phone and gently picks it up. Putting all her body weight onto the wall and watches the world go past. CUT TO:

INT. FRONT ROOM - NIGHT Jonathon is still frozen in the front room. With no company nor sound. He is transfixed into thin air. He then is brought back to reality when the knocking of the door. He drags his wheelchair to the front door. He approaches the door to find Darcy standing there. She enters and comes down to his level. She brushes her hand across his cheek. DARCY Cmon you. Lets go get you into some decent clothes hey. They smile at each other. She rises back up and pushes him into his room. She rises up his top and helps him get another one on. She prepares his shoes and socks for him. He watches her collect them. JONATHON Thank you She bends down and begins putting on his socks and socks. DARCY I am sorry John. I never meant to hurt you. And besides, I need my brother out on the night of my birthday. He quietly laughs. DARCY You ready yeah? He nods and she arises back up and begins to push his wheelchair towards the front door. She looks at him deeply and gives him a soft kiss on the cheek. She then opens the door and pushes him out of the door. CUT TO: EXT. FRONT DOOR - NIGHT She shuts the door and gives it a shake. She then grabs hold of the wheelchair handles and begins to push Jonathon out of the driveway. JONATHON Will Sarah be there? Shes funny.
