INT: HOUSE - DAVID'S ROOM - MORNING
DAVID is asleep on his bed. DAVID is a little chubby, but not noticably fat. He has a round complextion. His Alarm goes off(6:20) and he rolls/lunges to turn it off, falling off his bed in the process. He reaches his arm up onto the desk to turn it off.
DAVID:
Uhhh.....
David falls back asleep on the floor and is awakened an hour later by his MOM.
MOM:
"David! What are you still doing in bed!? You have school in 15 minutes!"
DAVID frantically runs to the bathroom and starts to shower. He sings in the shower, but doesn't quite know the words. He runs down the stairs, looks up at the ceiling, runs upstairs, grabs his backpack and runs out the door.
EXT: HIGH SCHOOL - LOCKER-FILLED HALLWAY - DAY
DAVID and SCOTT are walking down a hall lined w/lockers at the high school. SCOTT is thin and has an athletic build. Walking towards them, but not at them, are ANGIE and JEN. ANGIE is short, attractive, and thinnly built. JEN is taller than ANGIE, but not tall; blonde, attractive and thinly built.
SCOTT:
Check it out Dave, it's Angie/it's your online girlfriend.
DAVID:
Shutup.
SCOTT:
You want me to call her over here?
SCOTT puts his hands up to his mouth as if to yell.
DAVID: (trying to supress his concern)
Don't!...I swear.....
SCOTT:
Why not, I thought you--Oh hey Angie, Jen.
DAVID:
Hey Angie.
ANGIE:
Hi guys
ANGIE turns to JEN and continues with her conversation, ignoring DAVID and SCOTT.
DAVID:
Don't do that man.
SCOTT:
Chill out dude, I just said hi. Besides, since when have you been afraid of girls?
EXT: HIGH SCHOOL - UNDER TREE OUTSIDE GYM - AFTERNOON
DAVID, SCOTT, and friends JARED, ANDREW, and JON are eating lunch under a tree. ANGIE and friends JEN, KENSINGTON, and KAREN are eating lunch under a tree about 30 yards west.
SCOTT:
Why don't you just go over there and say hi. You're not asking her to marry you or anything.
DAVID:
I know, man, but look at her dude, she so hot.
SCOTT:
I think I know the problem here. Yeah, that's it - you're a homosexual. You're a raging homo.
JON (STARTING TO PAY ATTENTION)
Dave likes men? Uhh.. I never knew.
DAVID:
Screw you guys.
JARED(QUIETLY)
No thank you.
DAVID starts to walk over to the tree ANGIE is eating at. DAVE's friends start to make calls at him.
DAVE'S FRIENDS:
Whoo! Alright Dave!
DAVE'S FRIENDS:
Check out the butt on that thing!
DAVE'S FRIENDS:
Ow! Hot!
DAVID turns around and signals for them to shutup. They ignore him and begin to talk amongst themselves. DAVID nears ANGIE's tree, stops briefly, takes a breath, then continues to walk on. The girls notice DAVE, but they try to seem like they didn't.
DAVID:
Hey Angie.
KENSINGTON:
She does not -
ANGIE shoots KENSINGTON a look, and interrupts her.
ANGIE:
Oh hi David, how are you?
DAVID:
Pretty good. I was wondering...
HE looks up to think about what to say.
DAVID:
Can I eat lunch with you today? I mean if you don't want me to that fine, I was just wondering.....
He trails off, mumbling.
ANGIE:
Yeah, that's fine, go ahead and sit down.
All the girls look at him for a moment, then at the same time, turn to each other and start talking. He tries to follow their conversation, but it is hopeless. He sits there silent, looking fondly at ANGIE.
INT: HOUSE - DAVID'S ROOM - EVENING
DAVID is in his room talking to himself. He is sitting on his bed, talking to his plant
DAVID:
Angelina? How are you today?
The camera looks at the plant
DAVID:
I was just wondering what you were doing tonight...
The camera looks at the plant again.
DAVID:
Because, if you're not doing anything, do you want to go catch a movie or something?
David starts to "kiss" the air. He is making out with it, and groping it. David's little brother, Austin, (age 3-6) walks to the doorway. He looks at David, lifts up a camera and takes a picture of David. David sees the flash, and looks up to see his little brother running away.
DAVID:
Come back here you little punk!
