Josh – I think this is my year – he says louder.

Drake stops playing and puts down his guitar gently.

Drake – Um let me guess - he says scratching his chin as he walks toward the couch that Josh is sitting in.

Drake laughs out loud for a long time.

Josh – Seriously I am going to win – Drake Laughs louder.

Drake – what makes you think you're going to win this year, what haven't you tried that could possibly win the story contest.

Josh – flashes back to his previous entries in the story contest. That was because I couldn't remember how to spell something, anyway I'm going to write a story that I haven't writer before.

Drake – looks at josh and says well it's got nothing to do with me, besides I think music is more my thing. What you do is up to you.

Josh – But you always win the Talent show.

Drake – Yeah I know, it's nice being me.

Josh – Can't I have one golden moment of my own, to achieve something I have always tried year after year.

Drake – what about the time you got lost in the toy store and dropped your story and it fell down a drain.

Josh – Do you have to bring that up? You're meant to be helping.

Drake – I know it's just funny, it my highlight of the summer term.

Josh – What is that?

The day of the contest

Drake and Josh are having breakfast in the kitchen when he talks about his story.

Drake – Really Josh what idea you got now. He says because Josh kept talking about ideas in bed.

Josh – I am serious, this time I got it.

Drake – Okay but this is the last time I will listen to your bad ideas.

Josh – You won't this time.

Drake – Does it involve spoons?

Josh – of course it doesn't evolve spoons this time. He says because all of his ideas before did involve spoons.

Drake – Okay what it is.

Josh – well you know I have a lot of bad fortune.

Drake – You don't get even bad fortune, you get nothing right.

Josh – don't insult my genius idea it's my best yet.

Drake – and it will stay that way if it is from your head.

Josh – Hey now my head is not too big it can't understand how to write a simple story.

Drake – that would depend on your opinion of head sizes.

Josh – what do you know of head sizes you don't have a brain.

Drake – I don't need one, my looks are my brain.

Josh – don't I know it!

Drake – well let's hear the rest of this bright idea of yours before I go to rehearse with my band of the show this evening.

Josh – So you wanna hear it now, why the change of heart.

Drake – It's not it's just to amuse me as I walk to the premiere to rehearse.

Josh – The least you can do is support me Drake, I knew I couldn't rely on you, you just enjoy my misfortune, you don't care that I have had to carry this for all of my life

Drake – But Josh I didn't mean that the way it sounded

Josh - It's alright Drake I understand it's no use telling you, I'll just go and make a fool of myself, while you enjoy your show.

Josh – sounds impressive Craig, Can I read it after the contest.

A voice from one of the judges that says

Judge 1 – This is how the contest is going to work folks, each of the storytellers will step onto the podium and read their story and after each has read their story, we will take the stories and read them ourselves and after we have decided which is the best story we will call the name of the winner to come back onto the stage and receive the best storyteller of the year award.

Eric – Did you hear that, we got to read our story out loud for the whole audience to hear?

Josh – yu yeah we dddddd do.

Craig – it will be fine although I am not certain about that reading can be daunting.

Josh – thanks you're a good help Craig if I ever need advice I know the very guy.

With that Drake runs past and joins the three entries.

Drake out of breath - Wait Josh I am sorry; I haven't been a good help to you.

Josh – what are you doing here isn't your show about to start.

Drake – I think I'll give someone else a chance to win.

Josh – really!

Drake – Na just kidding I won.

Josh – well done Drake, you're a great musician, as for my I am a failure.

Drake – You're not Man, you got to believe in yourself.

Josh – You were right Drake, I have been wasting my time, I promise if I lose I will stop trying to win.

Drake – you can't go on that Podium beaten already, if you be true to yourself and read what is on that page, you could capture the imagination of the judges, but you can't go out there beaten that's one piece of advice I can give Josh.

The number get shorter and it gets to Eric who leaves back stage to read his story.

Josh – I am sorry Drake I miss judged you.

Drake – So did I

Josh – I am sorry for what I said at home.

Drake – It's alright Josh, you were right, I was being selfish, I didn't realise what you were going through.

Josh – well thanks Drake.

It comes down to Josh

Judge - JOSH NICKLES

Drake – This is it man, Knock em dead.

Josh – Ok I'll try.

Drake – don't Think about the audience, just sell it.

Josh walks slowly onto the stage and steps onto the Podium.

Josh begins after swallowing hard.

Josh – Fist of ladies and Gentlemen, I would like to dedicate this story to my brother Drake who helped me to write this story.

Josh – Thank you so much.

Josh walked back stage and found Drake who was stood with his mouth wide open.

Drake – why did you never enter those before, it would have saved you the last 5 years of pain, while you had the best story right in your hand.

Josh - I didn't want to write us off to the public for my fame in school I wanted to keep them back, I wanted to keep those memories for as long as I live, remembering all we have been through together all the highs and lows.

Drake – But they are great, who have labelled yourself a cable and amazing storyteller, to have made a story out of a diary, it's very impressive josh, I wouldn't care if you gave all our experiences and put them into a story the way you did over one day.

Josh/Drake - Hug me Brother.

Drake – I wonder if your story will become a film, and if it does I am going to be in it, and ill manage it. If you like Josh
