Chapter 3
Sheridan and Luis Are Together Again
(Sheridan is outside his cottage and has a very hurt expression on her face)
(inside, Luis goes into the kitchen)
Luis: This sucks man! I just saw another vision of her! I imagined she knocked on the door and was standing there waiting for me!
(Sheridan knocks on the door again)
Pilar: Go answer the door!
Luis: Why? It's probably just a vision again. I need to get some sleep. I'm starting to hallucinate some more.
Miguel: Try talking to this "vision" Luis.
Luis: What? Now you guys are encouraging me to hallucinate?
(Sheridan knocks on the door once more)
Charity: Just go answer the door!
Luis: All right, whatever. Fine, I'll answer it. (he walks over to the door and opens it) Are you a vision?
Sheridan: No, Luis. It's me, Sheridan.
Luis: I'm not hallucinating anymore?
Sheridan: No Luis. It's me! I missed you so much! (she gives him a big hug)
Luis: (hugs her back) Sheridan? It's really you?
Sheridan: Of course it is silly.
Luis: Sheridan, I love you so much. Where have you been?
Sheridan: It's a very long story; we'll explain everything later.
Luis: I missed you.
(they kiss passionately)
(everyone comes out of the kitchen)
Theresa: Awe, yay! The best couple in Harmony is reunited!
(everyone on set and in the studio audience claps for them as they kiss again)
[I am aware that Passions probably doesn't have a live studio audience, but we need someone to clap!]
Luis: Sheridan, let's get out of here.
Sheridan: To where?
Luis: Somewhere. Anywhere. I want to spend some time with you alone.
Pilar: Don't go Luis, stay here. This place is special to you. We will leave.
Theresa: Right. You guys have the most wonderful night!
Sheridan: Okay. Great! Antonio and I will explain our whole story tomorrow at a party!
Charity: Sounds good to me. We'll work out the details; don't worry about a thing Sheridan.
Sheridan: Thanks guys. And, how about we don't tell anyone why we're throwing a party? Let's have it be a surprise for everyone.
Miguel: Good idea Aunt Sheridan. Don't worry about a thing! You just have fun tonight!
Sheridan: You called me Aunt Sheridan. Awe.
Miguel: Hey, we all know it'll happen one day. Can I start early?
Sheridan: Of course you can.
Luis: Thanks everyone!
Pilar: Okay, we're leaving. Bye!
Everyone: Bye!
(they leave)
(Sheridan and Luis sit on the couch together and cuddle. Awe)
Luis: I'm so glad you're really here. I've missed you so much. I knew you weren't really dead.
Sheridan: Why did everyone think I was dead?
Luis: When we couldn't find you after the explosion and the storm, they sent out a search party. They found a body and identified it as yours. How that works, I don't know, because you're here. But we had a funeral and the body was cremated.
Sheridan: Wow. So if it wasn't me who you cremated who was it?
Luis: I have no idea. Hey! I know what we should do!
(he looks down at her)
Sheridan: (in that sexy voice like she knows what he'll propose they do) What?
Luis: Well, how about you go in the powder room and freshen up, and I'll be here waiting for you.
Sheridan: (gets a little offended) Why the hell do you need me to freshen up?
Luis: Nothing insulting meant by that. I just want you out of the room because I want to surprise you with something. Don't come out until after I come in there, okay?
Sheridan: Okay, my love. I'll be waiting for you.
(they kiss and then Sheridan heads for the powder room but before closing the door she blows a kiss to him and he "catches" it. The second she closes the door Luis goes into a closet and starts rifling around in there. He emerges with candles and starts lighting them and putting them everywhere around the room. When he's done he turns off all the lights and surveys the room. It seems to look good to him so he goes back into the closet and pulls out a blindfold. Then he walks into the powder room quietly)
{in the powder room}
(she has her back turned and he scares her (she screams a little) by giving her a hug from behind. Then he pulls the blindfold over her head and ties it behind)
Sheridan: Luis! What are you doing?
Luis: Surprising you.
(he turns he around and kisses her passionately)
Sheridan: Mmm, Luis!
Luis: Oh, you like that?
Sheridan: Yeah.
Luis: There's plenty more where that came from.
(he kisses her again)
Sheridan: Luis, don't stop. Let's just do this all night.
Luis: What about your surprise?
Sheridan: Screw my surprise.
Luis: You're silly. Come on!
Sheridan: Where are we going?
Luis: To the living room!
(he picks her up and carries her into the living room. Once they're in the middle, he sets her down gently)
Luis: Sheridan, I love you.
Sheridan: I love you too Luis.
(they kiss)
Luis: Okay, what do you want most, right now?
Sheridan: Nothing. I have what I want. You.
Luis: (he responds to this by kissing her) How about having that blindfold removed?
Sheridan: That would be good. How about we start with that?
Luis: Start? Wow, this sounds like it'll be a fun evening.
Sheridan: Of course it will be. As soon as you take off the blindfold.
Luis: All right, I'm doing it. (he reaches behind her head and unties it, then slowly takes it off her)
Sheridan: (the second she sees the candles) Oh, Luis. The cottage looks beautiful.
Luis: I thought you'd like it.
Sheridan: Of course I like it.
Luis: Sheridan, you know I love you with all my heart. (he gives her a small kiss)
Sheridan: (she returns the kiss) Of course, my love.
Luis: Before I met you, I never thought that I would fall in love with such a wonderful woman. I never thought I would find love as special as ours. You have made me happier than I ever thought possible. And, if you'll let me, I'll spend my life trying to make you just as happy.
Sheridan: Luis, I feel the same way. I'm never happier than when I'm in your arms.
Luis: (he gets down on one knee) Sheridan, you're the love of my life, will you do me the honor of marrying me?
Sheridan: I love you so much Luis, of course I'll marry you.
(he puts the ring on her finger as they embrace in a long and passionate kiss)
Sheridan: You have a ring! But you thought I was dead, it doesn't make any sense. How did you know to buy a ring?
Luis: I was going to propose on the boat.
Sheridan: You were? Luis, you are so wonderful. I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you. It'll be so perfect. (she hugs him closely)
Luis: Of course it'll be perfect, my love. Nothing can change that. We love each other very much and always will. So what do you want to do now?
Sheridan: What do you want to do?
(they both kind of have that look in their eyes)
Luis: What do you think I want to do?
Sheridan: I think we should.
(the scene fades out as they both have a look of complete bliss on their faces and they start to kiss)
