EXT – GRAVEYARD NIGHT.

Darren is sat on a tomb with books all around him.

DARREN

I am never going to get algebra.

THALIA (O.S)

Then why are you taking it?

Darren turns around a little shocked

DARREN

Err…Thalia right?

THALIA

Figured it’s unfair that you’re the one who always does the patrols when there’s four of us out there.

DARREN

You’re…

THALIA

Yeah, I am.

DARREN

Cool.

(beat)

What brings you here?

THALIA

Taking a walk

DARREN

At night? Through the graveyard?

THALIA

I have hidden levels

DARREN

Apparently so.

THALIA

So, have you been doing this long?

DARREN

About…six months on and off, two months officially.

THALIA

Officially?

DARREN

Well, since I’ve known that I was a Guardian.

THALIA

Right.

DARREN

How did you find out?

THALIA

Stuff

DARREN

Right, stuff – weird thing is stuff.

THALIA

It was…

(beat)

What’s going on over there?

Darren climbs down and follows Thalia to a tree where they spy a group of four vampires digging a new grave.

DARREN

You good with a stake?

cut to.

EXT. GRAVEYARD – NIGHT.

DARREN

Does this not strike you as being the slightest bit insane?

THALIA

Hiding behind a tree from a bunch of vampires when we both have kick-ass super powers?

DARREN

I was gonna go with them digging a grave only to fill it back in with nothing – but your insanity works too.

THALIA

Come on let’s…Oh crap!

Darren looks over – they’ve gone.

THALIA

Are they getting clever-er or are we getting stupider?

DARREN

You just said clever-er and stupider. I don’t really need to give you an answer right?

CUT TO.

EXT. SHOP – NIGHT

Jack is walking out of the store as Jamie walks in – they bump shoulders

JAMIE

Sorry

(pause)

Oh, Hi!

JACK

Hi.

Silence.

JAMIE

Just came out for milk

JACK

(holding back up)

Dad’s out of Jack

Jamie looks confused

JACK

Daniels

JAMIE

Oh! I got it!

JACK

(quiet)

Yeah

JAMIE

So…

JACK

Yep.

JAMIE

You know – being two thirds of a group of three, we should probably air some things before the tension gets enough to suffocate that other guy.

JACK

Maybe

JAMIE

Come on, we’ll walk and talk

JACK

Don’t you need milk?

JAMIE

It’s only for Ryan – he can wait.

EXT. PLAYPARK – NIGHT.

Jack and Jamie are sat on the swings as Jack munches on a bag of crisps (chips to those yankee folk)

JACK

You want some?

JAMIE

No thanks – I just ate a really big dinner

JACK

What did you have?

JAMIE

Half a pizza, chips, beans, bit of toast, half a tub of haagen daaz and four cookies.

JACK

Wow. You can eat

JAMIE

Damn right!

JACK

I like a girl that can eat

SILENCE

JAMIE

Yeah so it’s kind of cold – being October and all, so let’s just…

JACK

I don’t know why I kissed you

JAMIE

…Cut to the chase

JACK

It just happened

JAMIE

You didn’t kiss me

JACK

Then I don’t know why I tried

JAMIE

Hello? Look at me!

JACK

You know what I mean – I wouldn’t want a kiss or a not-kiss to come in the way of us, being friends.

JAMIE

It wouldn’t.

(quiet)

But, knowing that you want to, might.

JACK

What?

JAMIE

Well if you’d acted on it then I’d at least know that you want to be more than friends, but now all I’m going to be thinking is "is he being nice because he’s attracted to me"

JACK

Wouldn’t you be thinking that even if I did say I was attracted to you?

JAMIE

Well, yeah but that’s not the point – the point it

JACK

Darren

JAMIE

God know! What is everyones thing with that? I am beyond not into him!

JACK

Right

JAMIE

Seriously Jack – never gonna go there, never ever, not ever – EVER. No. Not nice.

JACK

Err…Okay.

JAMIE

Sorry – venting. Continue

JACK

You were talking

JAMIE

Right…I was…I have nothing to say

JACK

That makes two of us

JAMIE

So we’re as ever?

JACK

Sure

JAMIE

Great. Milk.

(embarrassed)

I have to go…f-for the milk, which I have to go for…I need the erm…

JACK

Milk?

JAMIE

Right. Milk. Bye

Jamie scatters off down the path as Jack smiles behind her, shaking his head.

CUT TO.

EXT. GRAVEYARD – NIGHT

Thalia and Darren are at the side of the grave as it begins to pour it down with rain

DARREN

Are you feeling emotionally unstable today?

THALIA

It’s not me!

DARREN

Meh!

(looks down)

Is it me or…is that sand

THALIA

It’s not you

DARREN

So it’s sand?

THALIA

Yes

DARREN

Okay – ever weirder. We need the brains of the operation

THALIA

We have one of those?

DARREN

It’s called a Casey

THALIA

The girl in the chair?

DARREN

Yes. Though I’m thinking of buying her a name badge so people stop calling her "chair girl"

THALIA

I saw her on my way here. We spoke.

DARREN

What did you say?

THALIA

Hi.

DARREN

Exciting

THALIA

She was getting a taxi into Darlington.

DARREN

Crap.

End of Part Two
