Summary: Set around the time Eric and Brooke eloped to get Nick and Bridget back together. It's a musical, it's a singalong, it's a songfic!
The Forrester family has gathered at Stephanie's house, shocked as Eric has just dropped a bombshell- he and Brooke have eloped!
Eric:
(eyes glistening as he gazes at Brooke)
Strangers in the night exchanging glances
Wond'ring in the
night
What were the chances we'd be sharing love
Before the
night was through.
Something in your eyes was so
inviting,
Something in you smile was so exciting,
Something in
my heart,
Told me I must have you.
Strangers in the night, two
lonely people
We were strangers in the night
Up to the
moment
When we said our first hello.
Little did we know
Love
was just a glance away,
A warm embracing dance away and -
Ever
since that night we've been together.
Lovers at first sight, in
love forever.
It turned out so right,
For strangers in the
night…
Brooke:
(rolls her eyes)
Oops! I did it again
I played with your heart
Got lost in the game
Oh baby, baby
Oops! You think I'm in love
That I'm sent from above
I'm not that innocent…
Nick:
(strides towards Brooke, looking at her pleadingly)
I'm going back again
I'll take it to the end
Remember where
we've been
And where we have to go
Take a look around
Look
at what we've found
I know that we can be
What we want to
be
I'm going back again…
Meanwhile, as Eric and Nick compete for Brooke's attention, over in the far corner of the room Bridget sits alone, watching them in anguish.
Bridget: (obviously upset and angry)Here I am, once again
I'm torn into pieces
Can't deny it, can't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up, deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes...
Stephanie notices what the scene is doing to Bridget, so she goes over to tell Eric, Brooke and Nick off.
Eric, Brooke and Nick: (shooing her away for interfering)E-evil woman,
E-evil woman,
E-evil woman,
Evil woman…
Suddenly the front door flies open and Ridge arrives, having just torn himself away from his new line at work. Immediately the family stop and stare at him as he brushes back his hair.
All: (at Ridge)You're just so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You're so vain (so vain)…
I bet you think this song is about you, don't you, don't you?
Ridge: (looking speechless) Bloody oath!
