Hi there.
NATE2
Hi.
SAMANTHA
Surprised?
NATE2
Pleasantly. But I did invite you so--
SAMANTHA
I could have stood you up.
NATE2
You could have?
SAMANTHA
Well, I could have but I didn't. Because I'm not that kind of a girl.
NATE2
Good, I'm glad. So, what kind of girl are you?
SAMANTHA
Ummm....I'm just a girl, sitting before you, wanting you to...buy her a latte.

NATE
So? What do you want to do?

NATE2
I only sell fruit to one hot girl, the rest are just average looking.
SAMANTHA
You are so sweet.
NATE2
Oh, did you think I was refering to you?

NATE2
So, you and Nate, the other Nate?
SAMANTHA

SAMANTHA
No, he's kinda with my friend, Laura.
NATE2
So, you both are dating guys named Nate?
SAMANTHA
Dating? Okay, yeah.
NATE2
Yeah, dating.
SAMANTHA
We live together too. Me and Laura.
NATE2
Live together? You're not also, um...
SAMANTHA
Wait, what? You think we are like lovers or something?
NATE2
Not that that's a bad thing. But I'm kind of into monogamy.
SAMANTHA
No, Laura and I aren't anything but friends. She wouldn't be into it anyway.
NATE2
Okay.
(Samantha reaches for his hand and he takes hers. Her cell phone beeps. She looks it over.)
SAMANTHA
Shit. Already?

So, you'll call me later? I can make you dinner.
NATE2
Yeah, sure.
(Samantha exits by camera, shaking her head confused.)
Fade into:
Interior: Samantha and Laura's living room.
Nate and Laura enter. They stand awkwardly apart yet stare at each other longingly, looking around, realizing they are alone. They slowly move closer and closer together, they hug, smile, then kiss, increasingly more passionately. Laura starts pulling on Nate's shirt, Nate puts his hand on Laura's waist. She backs him toward her room, into it, he kicks the door behind him.
Empty living room.
Suddenly, loud knocking from front door.
No answer from Laura's room.
Loud knocking continues and gets increasingly louder and louder.
Laura runs out of her bedroom, wearing a silk bathrobe.
Laura
Don't move, Nate. I'll deal with this and be right back.
Laura exits off screen, knocking stops, she opens door.
Scott?
Scott and Laura re-enter. Scott is dressed in a nice tailored suit. Scott immediately kneels, pulling a ringbox out of his pocket, opening it he extends it towards her.
Scott
Laura, I've changed. I've cleaned up my act, gotten serious. I took the job at dad's. All I need left, is you. Marry me, sweetheart.
LAUra
Scott, I don't--
SCOTT
Know what to say. Say you will, say you'll think about it. I love you, Laura, and I always will.
LAUra
Uh, Scott.
Nate
(entering)
Is everything okay, Laura?
(He's wearing only boxers. Scott, stays kneeling, but drops his hands at his side dejectedly.)
Scott
Laura, whose this? What's going on?
Nate
This must be...Scott.
SCOTT
How does he know my name?
LAURA
Um, Scott, uh, this is Nate.
Nate
Hi, Scott.
SCOTT

LAURA

SCOTT
Are you guys...together?
NATE
Well...
(A cell phone rings with "bells" ringtone. They all look at each other.)
Laura
That's not mine because
(She motions to Nate.)
You're right here.
Nate
Its mine. Its probably in my jeans pocket, in your room. I mean, uh, sorry, Scott.
(He exits awkwardly to Laura's room.)
Scott
Laura, what is going on? Are you seeing this guy?
LAURA
Not really, I don't know, maybe.
Scott
Are you sleeping with him? Is he just...just a fling or rebound or something? Is this what you need to play around awhile?
Laura
I don't know, Scott, I just don't know.
Scott
Maybe, he's just a blip, a blip in our lives together.
LAUra
I don't know about that, Scott.
Scott
I love you, Laura, and I want to be with you. I am working for dad now. I'm growing up. I'll do anything, Laura.
LAURA
Oh, Scott. I just--
Scott
Say, you'll think about it, okay? Here.
(He places ringbox in her hand.)
Just take this and think it over. I'll wait for you, Laura, I'll be right here waiting.
(He leans into kiss her. She turns her head. He kisses her cheek. They exchange a very awkward hug. He exits and passes by Samantha. The two of them exchange looks.)
(Nate enters, on phone.)
NATE
Oh my god...no...yeah...yeah. Okay, what time?...No, no, don't even think about...I'll be there. Of course, of course....See you later.
(Nate hangs up.)
Hey, Laura, Sam. Look, that was Kiyah, she's got to go talk to the lawyer about Eddie shit tomorrow you know.
LAURA
Wow. So, she's seeing a lawyer?
SAMANTHA
Custody battles and all the fun. I hope the creep loses everything, serves him right.
LAURA
Yeah.
NATE
So, I'll have to watch the kids. Maybe we can hang out tomorrow night, Laura?
LAURA
Tomorrow night? I--
NATE
Yeah. Dinner? My treat. Around 7?
LAURA
I just don't know, Nate. I'm kinda...got a lot to think about. Can I text you yes or no?
NATE
Um, yeah. Just let me know, all right? I'll just go get my clothes on then and head home, if that's what--
LAURa
That's fine.
(Nate exits into Laura's bedroom.)
LAURA
So, you just stood there watching the whole thing.
SAMANTHA
It made for some good drama.
LAURA
Thanks. How'd your coffee date go?
SAMANTHA
Swimmingly. Looks like yours went well too. Considering.
Laura
Yeah, until.
(Samantha walks over and hugs Laura.)

ACT ONE, SCENE FOUR
Interior: Law offices, a desk, two chairs. Mrs. Beasley and Kiyah sit in chairs, Mr. Edward Flinch sits behind desk, an older tired man who has been practicing law for many years, he's seen it all, and just wishes for the end to come.
KIYAH
So, what you are saying is that its impossible to gain full custody of my kids---
EDWARD FLINCH
Impossible, no. Uphill battle, yes. You will have to prove that he is unfit to parent--
KIYAH
He's a violent alcoholic who hasn't held a job in years. I can't believe I just said that.
EDWARD FLINCH
You'd be surprised what people can get away with when they put a mind to it. At best, we can try for 100% custody with supervised visits from the father.
KIYAH
I don't know.
MRS. BEASLEY
Hear the man out, Kiyah.
EDWARD FLINCH
For any other attorney, that'd satisfy. But, you are dealing with Edward Flinch, I'm no novice, Lucy, I can provide you above what you require.
KIYAH
Wow, uh, thank you.
MRS. BEASLEY
Don't worry about the cost, Luc. We just need to keep you and my grand-babies safe.
KIYAH
Um, all right.
EDWARD FLINCH
So, paperwork, timeline, let's talk.
Fade into:
Interior: Lobby of Law Offices
(Kiyah and Mrs. Beasley walk out of office. Kiyah is a little stunned. Mrs. Beasley hugs her.)
MRS. BEASLEY
You okay?
KIYAH
I don't know.
MRS. BEASLEY
Need a drink?
KIYAH
Really, mom? Wow!
MRS. BEASLEY
There's a lot you don't know about me, hon.
KIYAH
I guess I could just text Nate to see if he can watch the kids a bit later.
MRS. BEASLEY
You do that.
(Text message chimes on Kiyah's phone.)
KIYAH
Nate just texted me, he said he might have plans tonight?
MRS. BEASLEY
Well.
LUCY
It is technically his time off.
fade out.
ACT ONE, SCENE FIVE
Interior: Samantha and Kiyah's boutique, mid-day.
(Samantha and Laura are busy working. Ashley enters. She's a bit nervous.)
LAUra
Oh, hey, Ashley. How's it going?
ASHLEY
Um...
SAMANTHA
Are you okay?
ASHLEY
So, yeah, about that. I've been getting sick lately, like every morning.
SAMANTHA
Oh, dude, stay away from me.
ASHLEY
Yeah, I don't think its something you can catch like that. I mean, you would know.
SAMANTHA
How do you mean? Oh my god, you're not, are you?
ASHLEY
So, I got one of those over the counter--
LAUra
Pregnancy tests? You're not pregnant? Is it Nate's? It can't be.
ASHLEY
Um, who else could it be?
LAUra
Well, shit.
ASHLEY
Those things aren't always that accurate, you know. So, I'm going down to the Planned Parenthood for an official test. Hope I pass.
SAMANTHA
What does that mean?
ASHLEY
I guess I want it to be negative. What the hell would I do with a kid right now?
LAUra
So, you'd keep it?
ASHLEY
The baby? Or I could, well, you know. I mean, like I said, what the hell would I do with a kid right now?
SAMANTHA
Do you need anyone to go with you?
ASHLEY
Nah. I got myself into this mess, I have to do it myself. I have to be a big girl now.
Samantha
All right then. We're here if you need us.
Fade Out.
Fade in.
Exterior: Planned Parenthood
(There is one lone protester outside, holding a picket sign. Ashley walks up.)
Protestor
Are you sure you want to go ahead with this?
ASHLEY
Go ahead with what? Walk into a building?
PROTESTOR
You won't be able to live with yourself afterwards.
ASHLEY
Well, I've walked into a few buildings in my time and things have always worked out before.
PROTESTOR
You make jokes but in all seriousness---
ASHLEY
Yes, in all seriousness. Look, I appreciate your caring for me but you have no idea why I'm walking into this building. For all you know, I could be going for an annual women's exam, which they do for low income patients without insurance. Or did you not know that? Yeah, they offer that service. But, for your information, yes, I am going to enter this building, I hope I can do it successfully, for a pregnancy test. What am I going to do if I am pregnant, well, that's for me to figure out and frankly that's none of your business. But, I will tell you something, I'll let you in on a little secret. We all have different opinions about life and the universe and all of this and we're all adamantly sure that our way is the right way, whether we admit it or not. Some of us louder than others. But the thing is, if we want to make a difference in others' lives, to really make an impactual difference, the best thing we can ever do is listen. Okay? So, just try it some time. Put down your sign and just, you know, lend a ear. You'll see. Now, if you excuse me, I've got a bad decision to make.
PROTESTOR
What's that?
ASHLEY
I'm gonna enter a building. Wish me luck.
(She exits into building.)
Fade out.

NATE2
((pushing back his plate)
That was delicious.
SAMANTHA
Glad you liked it.
NATE2
That's not all I like. Can I interest you in a little dessert?
(He reaches for her hand and starts massaging it.)
SAMANTHA
You are incorrigible.
NATE2
Tell me to stop and I will.
SAMANTHA
I didn't say that.
NATE2
Hmm. Where's Laura tonight?
SAMANTHA
I don't know, out.
NATE2
With, uh, other Nate?
SAMANTHA
No, probably not. She said she had some thinking to do or whatever. And, yeah she most definitely does.
NATE2
And, the, uh, the kid?
SAMANTHA
Heath? He's with his dad for the evening, at least.
NATE2
So, we are all alone.

Yeah, can we talk?
Nate
Yeah, come in.
(She enters. Nate closes the door, camera pans around to show Nate3 watching.)
Interior: Nate's living room
(Nate and Ashley sit across from each other, not close to each other, on sofa.)
NATE
So, what's going on?
ASHLEY
Its like this. I took one of those, um, pregnancy tests, you know, over the counter. Because I kept getting sick like every time I looked at food.
NATE
Wait, you're not? I mean, you think its mine?
ASHLEY
Why do you even ask that? But for your information, I'm not. But thanks for the slut shaming.
NATE
I didn't mean...I mean, I'm sorry, Ashley.
ASHLEY
It's okay. But, we sure dodged a bullet on this, didn't we?
NATE
Yeah. You gonna be okay?
ASHLEY
Yeah, of course I will. Eventually. I'll figure it all out. Anyway, you were going to do something with Laura tonight?
NATE
Yeah, I invited her for dinner but she's like a no call, no show. I don't know what to think.
ASHLEY
Huh. I wonder what's up with her.
NATE
I was over at her place, you know, Sam's place, yesterday and things were, um, going really well.
ASHLEY
You were hooking up?
Nate
Well, kinda, yeah. And, then her ex showed up and--
ASHLEY
Scott?
Nate
Yeah. And he like got on one knee and full on proposed.
ASHLEY
No. What did Laura do? What did she say? She didn't say yes, did she?
Nate
No. It was totally awkward. I got a call from Kiyah and then he was gone when I got back and then I pretty much left. She said she'd call or text or whatever but nothing.
ASHLEY
Wow, poor Laura. Look, I'll talk to her, okay?
NATE
You'd do that, for me?
ASHLEY
Yeah, what are former fuck buddies for?

Nate
Yeah, that tends to happen around there. Its kinda awkward.
NATE2
Yeah? How so?
Nate
I was there with Laura and stuff was happening and then her ex showed up and proposed and shit and haven't heard from her since.
NATE2
Man, you think she said yes?
Nate
Not sure.
NATE3
Bet she didn't. She's probably off sorting it all out. Have faith, dude, she'll call.
Nate
I hope you're right.

Just friends. Mostly.
Nate
Mostly?
NATE3
Well, there was this, eh, thing with Ashley. I mean, nothing happened. But we were hanging out all the time, I was married, but I was like, you know, falling for her.
NATE
For Ashley?
NATE3
Yeah. Did you guys? Are you guys?
nate
Whatever Ashley and I were, its over. So over.
NATE3
Okay. So, you don't mind if I---
Nate
Go for it.
NATE2
So, back to me.
Nate
So, you don't like Sam's kid?
NATE2
Not true. I mean, I've barely met him. He seems cute and all.
Nate and Nate3
Yeah, yeah, he is.
NATE2
I just don't know if I'm ready to be a dad or whatever, if at all.

NATE
Right. Yeah. I can relate.
(All the Nates take a drink.)
NATE3
Look, all I can say is, Sam's a great girl and a good friend. She's fun too. And, Heath is pretty amazing too. He's a good kid. I'd just take it slow and see where things go.
