Fade in:
Int. Court house - Morning
It is Saturday, the day of the big trial, everyone is there; Zach, Olivia, Jacob, Ryan and Matt are sitting together, waiting for the trial to start
Jacob:
I wonder why they waited this long to have a trial
Zach:
I'm just glad he'll be behind bars, (turns to Olivia) No offense
Olivia:
none taken, but I'm just worried what my dad will think of you
Zach:
I'll talk to him after the Trial
The Judge walks in and sits at the front
Guard: Court is now in session
Judge:
Bring him in
Brad walks out in handcuffs and sits down
The judge reads through the file
Judge: Mr. Moore, do you know why your here?
Brad: yes your honor
Judge:
Considering that you commited 2nd degree assault and battery and have no lawyer, I'm hearby sentencing you to 2 years in prison
The audience gasps and a collection of murmurs start as the guards take Brad away

She uh... Left my dad when i was only 3, leaving me and my brother
Zach:
I'm sorry, i didn't mean...
Olivia:
No, No it's fine, i never really knew her
Olivia comes out in pink pajamas brushing her hair(it's a little wet, meaning she just got out of the shower) and stands in front of Zach
Olivia (Cont'd):
If you don't mind me asking, what about you?
Olivia sits next to Zach
Zach:
She um ... died when i was little
Olivia:
Oh, I'm sorry
Zach:
No, don't be, i asked you first so it's only fair
Olivia:
Did that mess things up with your dad?
Zach:
for a good while, he always blamed me for her death, but that was only because he was shitfaced
Olivia:
Did he ever--?
Zach:
No, he was an asshole, but he wouldn't hit me
Olivia:
How are you on good terms with him now?
Zach:
He got sober, we talked it out and we went to therapy for a year and after a while, we just got along
Olivia:
That's good
Zach turns to Olivia, smiling
Olivia (Cont'd):
What?

Nothing, I just love watching you
Olivia laughs
Olivia:
That was really corny
Zach laughs also
Zach:

Olivia pulls Zach in and they kiss passionately, Olivia climbs on top of Zach and She begins to take her shirt off but Zach stops her
Olivia:
What's wrong?
Zach:

Olivia:
Yes, I'm sure

They kiss again and the camera cuts to the outside of the house and it fades to black
