that actually have accounts and leave anonymous reviews.....do you mind
signing in? If it's no big deal......cause I wanna read some of your work
too!! Anyway.....here goes! Chapter 8!!!
~Where the Heart Is~
Monica: Ya know, Rachel, you never told me about YOU. Everything's always about ME.
Rachel: Weelll.......what would you want to know about ME?
(monica shrugs)
Monica: I dont know. Anything! How was your life in North Carolina? Any bad things in life? Past......lovers? (smiles)
Rachel: Weelllll......life in NC was okay. It was actually the only place where I REALLY fit in.
Monica: You fit in here Rach.
Rachel: (scoffs) Riiiiight. What makes you say that?
Monica: People like you.
Rachel: Okay, if you actually WATCH me in school, you would see that I sit ALONE.
Monica: My brother likes you!
Rachel: Monica!
Monica: Okay, okay. (lies down)
Rachel: Actually, I did have some bad times. Like when my boyfriend died.
(Monica sits up)
Monica: What?
Rachel: Yeah. He was killed in a car accident. Last year. (looks down at her feet)
Monica: Oh. (pause) I'm sorry.
Rachel: I really loved him. He was the first guy I actually 'loved'. You know what I mean? (her eyes begin filling up)
Monica: Aw Rach, dont cry!
Rachel: I loved him so much! I dont think I can ever love anyone more!
Monica: Rach, you're only 15!
Rachel: I know. And I was only with him for one year.........but it felt like forever.
(Rachel nods and we fade to the hallway, and we see Ross outside the door eavesdropping, but he didn't hear the 'Ross likes you!' part or anything.)
~~
(1 month later, Rachel now has more friends, but she's not exactly 'popular'. We see her yet again walking to Monica's house. She's walking up the pathway to the porch when she noticed somebody sitting on the porch swing.)
(she walks up the steps)
Rachel: hey Ross.
Ross: Oh, hey Rach. What's up?
Rachel: Nothing much.
(goes over to him)
Rachel: Mind if I sit down?
(Ross shakes his head and Rachel sits down)
Rachel: What ya doing?
Ross: Just thinking.
Rachel: Yeah. Of what?
Ross: Why so curious suddenly? (Rachel smiles) Nothing really. Just about this girl.
Rachel: A girl huh?
Ross: yeah. I really like her. But she's not over her last boyfriend and I dont think she feels the same.*
(*You know who he's talking about......right?)
Rachel: Well, if she's not over her last boyfriend, why are you going for her?
Ross: Cause she's beautiful.........she's sweet..........and because she's different.
Rachel: Different?
Ross: Yah. Normally girls try to be so.....I dont know. Take Monica for example....
Rachel: Ooh. Okay.
Ross: Yeah. That's all.
Rachel: Well, that's a lot to be thinking about. (pause) Want some advice?
(ross shrugs)
Rachel: Just go for her. If she REALLY doesn't feel the same, THEN you forget her.
Ross: Okay. I can take a chance. (he leans in to Rachel and kisses her full on the lips. After a while he breaks it)
Rachel: What was that for?! (looks at him and the looks down) I'M the girl?!
(ross looks away)
Rachel: (quietly) How do you know about my other boyfriend?
Ross: I over heard you and Monica.......(pause) Uh, I hope you're not mad?
(Rachel is just quiet, and she's looking out at their garden. After a few minutes Ross just stands up and starts to walk away mumbling 'sorry')
Rachel: Ross---wait. (puts her hand on his shoulder) Why do you like ME? Of all people?! I mean, you're popular............a lot of girls are falling for you everywhere.....and you pick ME?!
Ross: Like I said.........you're different. (pause) Look, Rachel, if you dont feel the same, then it's FINE. I dont care!
(he walks off. Rachel felt bad, but also confused. She didn't know why Ross would fall for her. Of all people. But the question really was..........did SHE feel the same? Ross said he didn't care if she did or not.......but she could tell by his look that he was hurting. She drew her hands up to her lips and touched then with two fingers. As a tear slides down her cheek, we fade out.)
TO BE CONTINUED.................
