(LATER)

JESSICA-(OPENS THE DOOR TO THE HOUSE)(REACHES FOR THE BAGS ROCK HAS)I'LL..TAKE THOSE. THANKS, I'LL SEE YOU LATER.(SHE STARTS TO CLOSE THE DOOR, BUT HE BLOCKS AND COMES IN THE HOUSE)

ROCK-JESSICA, WHAT'S WRONG? YOU'VE BEEN QUIET EVER SINCE WE WERE IN NORDSTROMS.

JESSICA-I..I GUESS I JUST DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY, THAT'S ALL.

ROCK-WELL, YOU'RE WELCOME AND EVERYTHING ELSE. WHICH OUTFIT ARE YOU GOING TO WEAR?

JESSICA-.....PROBABLY THE PANTS AND SWEATER.

ROCK-OH COME ON! YOU HAVE A BEAUTIFUL FIGURE, WHY DON'T YOU SHOW IT OFF SOMETIMES?

JESSICA-I JUST DON'T DRESS LIKE THAT.

ROCK-WHAT'S GONNA HURT IF YOU DO IT ONCE IN A WHILE?

JESSICA-NOTHING, I'M JUST NOT COMFORTABLE KNOWING THAT PEOPLE CAN SEE THINGS THEY DON'T NEED TO BE SEEING.

ROCK-YOU HAVE THOSE THINGS TO BE SEEN, SHOW 'EM OFF, GIRL!

JESSICA-I CAN'T, I'M NOT COMFORTABLE LIKE THAT.

ROCK-OK, SINCE EVERYONE ELSE CAN'T SEE YOUR FIGURE, WILL YOU MODEL FOR ME?

JESSICA-(PLOPS DOWN ON THE COUCH)WHY ARE YOU SO FASCINATED WITH ME?

ROCK-WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

JESSICA-I MEAN....IT JUST SEEMS LIKE YOU...PAY A LOT OF ATTENTION TO....MY BODY...

ROCK-I....YOU'VE NOTICED?

JESSICA-(FROWNS)YOU'RE DOING IT ON PURPOSE?

ROCK-(ROLLS HIS EYES)JESSICA, I'M A MAN, YOU'RE A WOMAN, YOU HAVE A WONDERFUL FIGURE, I WOULD HOPE THAT YOU WOULD WANT ME TO NOTICE-

JESSICA-THAT'S NOT THE POINT, YOU'RE MARRIED AND I KNOW DAMN WELL YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GO HOME AND TELL DANY EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED TODAY-

ROCK-WHY NOT?

JESSICA-(SHE FROWNS AGAIN THEN RAISES AN EYEBROW)YOU KNOW WHAT, YOU-YOU'RE A VERY WEIRD MAN.

ROCK-I'M NOT WEIRD, I'M HONEST. I SAID THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THAT I HAD TO HIDE FROM DANY, AND I'M GONNA STICK BY THAT WORD.

JESSICA-BUT..YOU JUST STRAIGHT UP FLIRT WITH ME! DO YOU KNOW HOW SHE'S GONNA REACT TO THAT?

ROCK-WELL, YES. SHE WON'T EXACTLY LIKE IT, BUT SHE KNOWS ME.

JESSICA-(PAUSES)Y'ALL HAVE A WEIRD RELATIONSHIP.

ROCK-TRUTHFUL RELATIONSHIP, HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO SAY THAT?

JESSICA-YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO SAY IT A LOT, I'M GUESSING.

ROCK-(SMILES)JESSICA, WHEN YOU'RE MARRIED TO THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE AND YOU TWO KNOW EACH OTHER LIKE YOUR FAVORITE SONG, YOU WILL UNDERSTAND, OK?

JESSICA-YEAH, SURE, OK DAD, I GET YOUR POINT, BUT THAT WON'T BE FOR A LONG TIME.

ROCK-IT COULD BE SOONER THAN YOU THINK, YOU DON'T KNOW.

JESSICA-ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT,ALRIGHT, AL-RIGHT! GET OUT! I'M TIRED.

ROCK-IS THAT ANY WAY TO TREAT THE ROCK?

JESSICA-YES IT IS, I DON'T CARE WHO YOU ARE, I'M TIRED, GET THE HELL OUT.

ROCK-(RAISES HIS EYEBROW)YEAH, YOU MUST BE TIRED. (SHE NODS AND LAYS DOWN ON THE COUCH)HEY,(HE GETS DOWN ON HIS KNEES NEXT TO HER)LOOK, CAN YOU TELL THAT I'M ATTRACTED TO YOU?

JESSICA-LIKE A MAGNET. (HE LAUGHS)

ROCK-CAN YOU TELL WHY?

JESSICA-NO, REALLY I'M NOT UNDERSTANDING IT.

ROCK- CAN I TELL YOU SOMETHING THAT YOU GOTTA PROMISE TO KEEP TO YOURSELF?

JESSICA-MM-HMM, WHAT?

ROCK-WELL, WE HAVEN'T KNOWN EACH OTHER FOR LONG, I KNOW THIS, YOU KNOW THIS, BUT IF I HADN'T MET DANY BEFORE I MET YOU....(INHALES AND EXHALES)LETS JUST SAY....THAT I WOULD HAVE ROCKED YOUR WORLD BY NOW AND WOULD BE WORKING ON IT FOR THE THIRD TIME.

JESSICA-(SHE SITS UP AND LOOKS AT HIM)(LAUGHS)NO YOU DID NOT JUST SAY THAT!(SHE LAYS BACK AND KEEPS LAUGHING)OH MY GOD, NO YOU DIDN'T...

ROCK-YOU LAUGH, BUT IT'S TRUE. YOU'RE WONDERFUL, YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL. I CAN'T EVEN STRESS WHAT I WANT TO SAY!(SHE CLOSES HER EYES AND SMILES[SHE HAS HER HAND ON HER FOREHEAD])(EXHALES)I CAN'T BELIEVE I JUST SAID ALL OF THAT. (SHE GIGGLES) I GUESS I'LL BE LEAVING YOU TO SLEEP NOW.(HE STANDS UP)LATER 'GATOR- WAIT, YOU DON'T LIKE THE GATORS.......

(HE BENDS DOWN TO KISS HER FOREHEAD, BUT HER HAND IS THERE, SO....HE KISSES HER GENTLY ON THE LIPS)BYE.(HE LEAVES THE ROOM, BUT NOT THE HOUSE)

JESSICA-(SITS UP)DID HE JUST KISS ME?! OH MY GOD!! HE DID!! I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS! (SHE GETS UP AND STARTS WALKING TO HER ROOM BUT STOPS BECAUSE SHE SEES HIM,OUT OF THE CORNER OF HER EYE, STANDING IN FRONT OF THE DOOR STARING AT HER)

ROCK-JESSIE, DO YOU ALWAYS TALK TO YOURSELF?

JESSICA-I-UH....BYE.(SHE GOES TO HER ROOM AND CLOSES THE DOOR)(LAYS DOWN)OOH..HE KISSED ME....(PAUSES)HOW IS HE GONNA EXPLAIN THAT TO DANY?
