ON THE CHASE
"The Other Side"
While Kimmy, Stephanie and Steve search the city high and low, DJ is still with Ryan enjoying a fine dinner that includes scallops, grilled chicken, whipped-creamed topped peaches and chocolate cake while overlooking the bay from atop Ryan's balcony. They are enjoying the sight of the elegant moonlight shining down over the bay.
"Wow, where did you learn how to cook?" DJ asks Ryan.
"Culinary Arts School!" Ryan says giddily.
"So, you've completed two schools, very impressive!" DJ says and smiles.
"No, I dropped out of high school in 10th grade or two years ago, which ever comes first." Ryan says.
"Oh, I'm sorry" DJ says.
"Don't be" Ryan says to DJ as they hug.
"You know, you are so sweet to be my abductor." DJ says.
"Yeah, I get that." Ryan says smartly.
"I wonder if anyone is looking for me?" DJ curiously says to Ryan.
"I hope so!" Ryan says.
"Oh my gosh, I just realized what funny thing could possibly happen, Kimmy could be out with Steve and they couple be searching the city high and low for me." DJ says.
"That would be miserable…well, for that Kimmy anyway!" Ryan says jokingly.
"I know!" DJ says laughing.
"This is a weird kidnapping I know, your happy, I'm happy, this is ridiculous!" Ryan says sarcastically.
DJ is now really starting to think, and she is starting to feel uncomfortable, every other second, DJ would start thinking about Ryan, then Steve, then Ryan again, then Steve again, again and again.
DJ faints, but before she crashes to the floor, Ryan catches her.
(4 minutes later)
Ryan has laid DJ on his couch, he has gotten a cold rag, and he is wiping DJ's head with a washcloth. DJ starts waking up.
"What…what…what happened?" DJ says slowly.
"I…I think you fainted?" Ryan softly says.
"Hey, I have a vanilla cake baking, let me go check on it." Ryan says.
"Ok" DJ says.
Ryan gets up off the floor, and heads to the kitchen; DJ climbs out of the sofa, goes back out to the balcony, the sky starts letting out raindrops.
"Gosh, why me? DJ says silently to herself.
"Ryan or Steve?" DJ wonders as she looks over the city.
