I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT
This is actually a movie that a friend of mine and I were going to shoot and put on Youtube, but we never got around to it. It is meant to be silly and stupid. I also admit that we wrote this at about 2:00 in the morning. A.K. I love you and thanks so much for being my partner in crime with this script. I know both of us are sad that life took over and we were never able put this into video format. I really wanted to share this somehow and decided that this would be a great place to do it. Thank you to anyone who reads this and I hope you enjoy.
I Know What You Are
(Bella is standing in the school parking lot looking for Edward. He walks out of a flower bed {just kidding} and looks toward her. Bella pushes past him and starts walking. Edward gives a very confused look. Bella abruptly stops and turns around. She gives an exasperated look and motions for Edward to follow. Comprehension crosses his face and he does.)
(Bella is in the lead as Edward is struggling to keep up. He stops to catch his breath and realizes that he has stopped to lean on a cross. He shrieks like a little girl)
EDWARD
Are we far enough from civilization yet? (Bella keeps walking away from him) Guess not.
(They come to a stop. Bella drops the backpack.)
EDWARD
You know you dropped your backpack.
BELLA
Are you gonna shut-up and listen, or are you just gonna say things that are happening? You're impossibly fast...and strong. Your skin is pale white and ice-cold. Your eyes change color. And sometimes you speak like, like you're from a different time. You never eat or drink anything. You don't go out into the sunlight. How old are you? Um, you do know you can speak now right?
EDWARD
Oh! Okay...um...Old.
BELLA
How old is old?
EDWARD
Well...if you want to look at it from a technical point of view, I'm 17.
BELLA
How long have you been 17?
EDWARD
Awhile.
BELLA
Well, how long is awhile?
EDWARD
What is this 20 questions? 'Cause if it is, you've already used up four, no five. No, four. Wait, yeah five, it's five.
BELLA
You didn't answer my question.
EDWARD
Well, if you must know, it's been a couple of decades.
BELLA
I know what you are.
(Edward freezes in shock for a second. He starts to laugh nervously and loosen his collar as if he can't get enough air)
EDWARD
What! No! No, you don't. If you did you'd say it...Out loud...You'd say it.
BELLA
Vampire.
EDWARD
(He turns to face away from her and mutters under his breath)Crap! Carlisle's gonna...well I don't know what he's gonna do, but it ain't good. (He looks down at his hand and starts studying it. He speaks normally...for the most part) I suppose the appropriate response would be to be afraid (Cheered by this idea) Are you afraid?
BELLA
Should I be? (Edward is still staring at his hand.) Um, HELLO!
EDWARD
(He snaps back to reality)I'm sorry what?
BELLA
Should I be?
EDWARD
What?
BELLA
Afraid?
EDWARD
Yes.
BELLA
Then, no. I'm not afraid.
EDWARD
Dang it! Wait! Bella?
BELLA
Yes, Edward?
EDWARD
Ask me the most basic question. What do we eat?
BELLA
Cookies! (Edward pulls on her arm and starts to pull her towards the hill) Where are we going?
EDWARD
Top of the cloud bank. You need to see what I look like in the sunlight. (He lets go of her arm and starts to run up the hill. When he reaches the top he turns around to find Bella pacing at the bottom) What are you waiting for?
BELLA
Where are the stairs?
EDWARD
(He sighs dramatically and points to his left) That way.
BELLA
Thank you!
(Edward keeps checking his watch and saying complaints under his breath. Bella finally reaches where he is standing.)
EDWARD
Can we go now?(Bella nods)
(They step out into an openish field. Edward keeps walking forward.)
EDWARD
This is why we don't show ourselves in sunlight. People would know we're different. (Edward turns to reveal himself covered in "sparkles") This is what I am. This is the skin of a killer, Bella.
BELLA
What? I don't see anything.
EDWARD
Right there. It's like I'm covered in diamonds. I sparkle in the sunlight.
BELLA
No you don't.
EDWARD
Yes I do. See. Right there.
BELLA
What? That?
EDWARD
Yes!
BELLA
That's body glitter. (She pulls out her own stash and puts some on.) See. I sparkle too.
EDWARD
I'm a killer.
BELLA
I really don't believe that.
EDWARD
It's because you believe a lie. Camouflage. I'm the worlds most dangerous killer. Every thing about me invites you in. My voice.
BELLA
No. Not really.
EDWARD
My face.
BELLA
Have you looked in a mirror recently?
EDWARD
Even my smell.
BELLA
Conceited much?
EDWARD
As if I need any of that. As if you could outrun me.
BELLA
Um, I sort of already did at the beginning of this whole thing. Remember? You were the one who was completely out of breath.
EDWARD
As if you could fight me off. (Bella punches him in the nose. He cowers on the ground for a second then stands back up.) Ow! What was that for? That HURT!
BELLA
I don't care.
EDWARD
I'm designed to kill.
BELLA
Sure.
EDWARD
I've killed people before.
BELLA
It does not matter.
EDWARD
I wanted to kill you. I've never wanted a human's blood so much in my life.
BELLA
I trust you.
EDWARD
Don't.
BELLA
I'm here. I trust you. You won't hurt me. If anything I'll end up hurting you.
EDWARD
My family...we're different from others of our kind. We learn to control our thirst. We call ourselves vegetarians because we only hunt animals.
BELLA
I thought vegetarians didn't eat meat.
EDWARD
Bella, just go with it! It's you, your scent. It's like a drug to me. You're like my own personal brand of heroin.
BELLA
Why did you hate me so much when we first met?
EDWARD
I just told you why! I hated you for making me want you so much. I still don't know if I can control myself.
BELLA
I know you can.
EDWARD
I can't read your mind. You have to tell me what you're thinking.
BELLA
The heck I do, Cullen!
EDWARD
Please?
BELLA
Okay, now I'm afraid.
EDWARD
Good.
BELLA
I'm not afraid of you. I'm only afraid of losing you...and your brother Jasper. He looks like he would attack me at my own birthday party if I got so much as a paper cut from a present you gave me. I feel like you're gonna disappear.
EDWARD
You don't know how long I've waited for you.
BELLA
Okay, then tell me.
EDWARD
And so the lion fell in love with the lamb.
BELLA
What is it with you and avoiding my questions?
