Two men and One girl II(2)
Jenny, Joe, and Norman are inside Jenny's house and Joe and Norman begin competing on who can help Jenny faster.
Joe:(looks around; sees that everything is nice and neat) Well where is it that needs cleaning?
Jenny: Up in the attic and the kitchen.
Joe: Who gets to do which one?
Jenny: You take the attic Joe and Norman will do the kitchen if you both don't mind.
Joe:I don't mind at all I'd do anything you tell me!
Norman: I would do anything you told me too because I am faster!
Joe: No you're not I am because I can carry things up and down the attic stairs!
Norman: The kitchen is easy access to the outdoors in case garbage needs to go out!
Joe: The attic has a window you can toss things out of!
Norman: I chose the kitchen because I'm special!
Joe: I chose the attic because I'm faster!
Norman: Kitchen is safer!
Joe: Attic is faster!
Norman: You can fall through the ceiling!
Joe: Dishes can fall on you!
Norman:(gets an envious look in his eye).
Joe:(gets a murderous look in his eye).
Inside Norman's mind
Norman: How dare this intruder say he is faster than me?! He is trying to steal Jenny from me! How dare he! Ok Norman just keep calm!
Outside of Norman's mind
Norman: I'd be willing to help you big guy.
Joe: No thanks I can do it alone and besides I wouldn't want to have a know it all helping me anyway! I'm stronger!
Norman: I'm smaller and faster!
Joe: I'm stronger and I can take something from you(walks around Norman and takes his jacket) and you won't even know I was there.
Norman:(realizes he doesn't have his jacket; gets annoyed; grabs it from Joe and puts it back on).
Inside Joe's mind
Joe: Take that lover boy! I am more agile and sneakier than you think! Hell I snuck up behind a Japanese Officer and his men and took them out before they can turn around and take my platoon out! That was before I was transferred to Normandy and took out a German Officer and his men plus their cannon and I did it all single handedly too! So I'd be careful if I was you boy!
Outside his mind
Joe:(smirks).
Norman:(stares at him).
Joe: I'm faster!
Norman: No I am!
Joe: No I am!
Norman: No me!
Joe: No me!
Norman: Me!
Joe: Me!
Norman: Me!
Joe: Me!
Jenny: Boys! Boys! Let's not fight let's get to work!
Joe: Will do!
Norman: Yes Jenny!
They bump into eachother
Norman: oops!
Joe: Pardon me!
Norman:(goes into the kitchen).
Joe:(goes up into the attic).
Jenny:(stares at the ground).
Inside her mind
Jenny: Wow I really appreciate them wanting to help me but I didn't intend on making them compete. In a way I like it when they compete but at the same time it really bothers me because I feel bad for putting my chores onto them but still it is nice that they are going to help me.
Outside of her mind
Jenny:(goes inside the kitchen).
Norman:(cleaning the dishes).
Jenny: Hey Norman.
Norman: Yes Jenny?
Jenny: May I ask you something?
Norman: Certainly my dear I-I-I-I mean Jenny.
Jenny: Do you like me?
Norman:(scared) What do you mean?
Jenny: I mean like as a girlfriend. Do you? And don't lie.
Norman:(gulps) Yes Jenny I really do.
Jenny: Well that is very sweet of you. I'm glad you are honest.
She then goes up to the attic
Inside Norman's mind
Norman: Ok hopefully she goes up there to tell that big guy to get lost and find someone else and that she is mine.
Outside Norman's mind
Norman smirks and continues doing the dishes
Up in the attic
Jenny: Joe.
Joe: Yeah (bumps his head) Ow!
Jenny: I brought this to you.
Joe: A glass of milk? Ahhh Jenny you're too kind and you didn't have to bring me anything but thanks anyway.
Jenny:(sees that he is sweating) Joe why don't you take a seat.
She pulls up a chair for him
Joe: Ahh thanks Jenny.
He sits down and takes a sip of his milk
Jenny: Joe can I ask you something?
Joe:(sets down his milk) Sure thing.
Jenny: Joe do you like me?
Joe:(wide eyed) What do you mean?
Jenny: I mean as a girlfriend do you like me that way? It is ok to be honest.
Joe: Ahh shucks I-I-
Jenny: You're blushing.
Joe: Well Jenny I do like you a lot. I mean I never felt that way toward a woman before you know. I mean I like you in a deeper way. Deeper than I ever felt. You can say I am in love with you. I mean I hope you don't think I'm-
He gets mesmerized by her beauty and looks into her eyes
Jenny: You alright Joe?
Joe: Jenny I hope you don't think I'm weird or anything.
Jenny: I don't.
Joe: Jenny I- you see- I mean- I mean you take your average man and a beauty like you and- I mean you know I- I- I- You take a beauty like yourself and a man like me and you just- I mean-
He gets up, opens his mouth as if to say something but doesn't say anything
Jenny looks at him
Joe: I mean Jenny you know it's like when a man meets a beauty like you and begins to develop feelings- I mean it's like you know when a man and woman meet and then- I mean fate brings people- I mean- ugh I can't say it I can't I just can't.
Jenny: Say what?
Joe:(sighs and turns around) Jenny.
Jenny: Yes Joe?
Joe:(sits down beside her) What I am trying to say is that you are the most beautiful woman I have ever laid my eyes on and fell in love with. I understand that you may not feel the same toward me and I respect that but you see I haven't had a girlfriend since I was a freshman in high school and that was before I enlisted into the second World War.
Jenny looks into his eyes
Joe:(scoots closer to Jenny) Jenny that is how I feel towards you. I hope you don't think I am weird but if you do I understand.
Jenny: I never said anything of the kind Joe.
Joe: Ok then that's a relief.
Jenny:(looks away) Joe I never ever ever ever had a man tell me that before in my entire life.
Joe: Well I'm the first man who told you.
Jenny: That is true. I suppose I am beautiful.
Joe: No there is no supposing Jenny.
With his finger he turns her face toward him
Joe: You are beautiful.
Jenny: Wow that's very nice of you to say.
Joe:(puts his hand on her shoulder).
Jenny:(in a trance-like state puts her hands on his shoulders).
Joe:(swallows hard) I love you Jenny.
He then leans in and goes to kiss her on the lips
From downstairs
Norman: Jenny!
Jenny:(snaps out of her trance state) Oh I better go down and see what he needs.
She gets up and leaves, knocking Joe on the ground in the process
Jenny:(turns around) Be back Joe.
Then goes downstairs
Joe:(stares at the ground).
In his mind
Joe: That damn Norman better keep his paws off of her...and lips too because I was about to get a kiss! If he does that again I'll-
He then takes a breather
Joe: Ok calm down Joe just wait until she comes back up then you'll get your kiss.
Outside his mind
Joe smirks and takes another sip of his milk
Meanwhile downstairs
Jenny: What happened Norman?
Norman: Oh I was just wondering if I put the dishes in the right spot and the silverware and knives too.
Jenny: Let me look.
She checks the cabinets where he put the dishes
Jenny: That's the right spot.
She checks the silverware drawers
Jenny: Everything is neat and in the correct places.
Norman: Is there anything else I can do for you?
Jenny: Well my backyard is messy but-
Norman: I'll get on it.
He goes outside and begins the process of working on it
Jenny: Ok thanks.
She then goes back up to the attic to see Joe
Joe:(hears Jenny's footsteps and takes a sip of milk).
Jenny: Hey Joe.
Joe:(put his milk down) Hi Jenny.
Jenny:(sits closer to Joe).
Joe:(gets mesmerized again and puts his hand on her shoulder).
Jenny:(goes into a trance and puts her hands on his shoulders).
Joe: Jenny I love you.
Jenny smirks
Joe:(leans in) But words aren't enough.
Then without a doubt
Joe embraces and kisses Jenny
Jenny tries to get out of the kiss as she does have some feelings for Norman but immediately finds herself wrapping her arms around Joe and embracing him as she never ever felt this kind of love and romance from a man before
Joe holds Jenny tightly
Jenny with one hand rubs the back of Joe's head and runs her fingers through his hair
Joe runs his fingers through her hair
Jenny(stops) Joe.
Joe: yes?
Jenny: I have never ever been embraced and kissed before.
Joe: Neither have I.
Jenny: Joe I never felt the way I feel towards a man before in my life.
Joe: (grabs her hand and holds it) I have never fell in love before.
Jenny: I need to go outside real quick will you excuse me?
Joe: Sure thing.
She gets up and goes downstairs
Once downstairs she goes outside
Jenny: Norman?
Norman: Yeah(puts the hedge trimmers down).
Jenny: Here you go.
Norman: A glass of ice cold water? Oh Jenny you shouldn't have but I thank you.
Jenny: Here's a chair.
Norman: Oh thanks(sits down).
He takes a sip of water
Jenny: Norman how deeply do you like me if I may ask?
Norman: My liking of you is deeper than just a liking. It's more of falling in love with you. It's even more like wanting to marry you. I mean Jenny I never ever felt this way towards another woman before in my life and since I met you I have fallen deeply in love with you and I do understand if you do not feel the same way toward me. I understand if I weird you out. I mean I am very understanding.
Jenny: I never said you weirded me out.
Norman: I mean Jenny you have made me smile and realize that I don't have to be shy and stereotype girls because you broke the stereotype for me and I have fallen madly in love with you. I mean you take your average man like me and a bombshell like you and- you know they just- I mean you take a guy like me and a pretty woman like you and they meet and then fate- I mean I- oh man I've run out of things to say.
He gets up
Jenny looks at him
Norman: Not even my own mother shows me love. I never knew what love and kindness from a woman felt like and you have made me feel that kindness and I feel love from you as well. You may not feel the same way and I understand that but I just want you I just-I love you and want to marry you Jenny. I don't care if the whole world hears me.
He sits down beside her and moves closer to her
Jenny:(goes into her trance yet again).
Norman:(gets mesmerized by her, looks into her eyes, and puts both hands on her shoulders).
Jenny: I owe you for helping me Norman(grabs a dime out of her pocket) here's a dime.
Norman:(takes it and puts it in his pocket) But dimes are a dozen because my love for you has really grown and matters to me now.
He leans in and kisses her
Jenny kisses him as well
Norman holds her tightly in his arms
Jenny now battling her attractions for Joe and Norman contemplates getting out of the kiss but becomes to enamored to get out of the kiss and holds Norman tightly
Norman hugs her in an embrace
Jenny begins kissing Norman's neck
Norman:(whispers) I love you Jenny. I love you like a wife. I don't care who hears.
Jenny: That's very sweet of you Norman.
Norman:(kisses her neck).
Jenny: I need to go back up into the attic would you excuse me?
Norman: Sure thing and besides I'm done with the lawn.
Jenny: Thank you so much.
Norman: My pleasure.
Jenny then runs inside and up to the attic
Joe:(hears Jenny and smiles).
Jenny: Joe could you come outside?
Joe: I sure can because I am all done with the attic.
Jenny: Aww thank you so much.
Joe: You're welcome.
He leans in for a kiss
Jenny hugs him
Joe gets a little shocked that she didn't kiss him
Then he snaps out of it and goes outside with her
As soon as they are outside
Norman and Joe see eachother and get envious looks in their eyes
Jenny: I thank both of you for helping me today.
Norman: Anytime.
Joe: my pleasure.
Jenny: That being said I have discovered something.
Joe and Norman both get wide eyed
Jenny: I discovered that you both have feelings for me and-
Norman: Yeah?
Joe: Uh huh?
Jenny: And it really has touched my heart because a man never felt that way towards me and I just want to say I appreciate that greatly but at the moment I cannot say for sure who I choose so please give me 24 hours and I'll tell you.
Norman and Joe's faces turn from happy to sad
Jenny: I'm really sorry but I need to think so give me until tomorrow.
Norman: Ok sure thing.
Joe: I completely understand.
Jenny: Thanks you guys.
Norman: Anytime.
Joe: No problem.
Norman: Bye Jenny.
He leaves
Joe: Bye Jenny.
He also leaves
After Joe and Norman go back to their houses to tell their parents of how they feel, Jenny goes up to her room and begins to think about who to go with
However this is interrupted when there is a knock at the door
Jenny goes downstairs and answers the door
It is her sister Victoria
Jenny: Hey Victoria.
Victoria: Hi Jenny.
They hug
Jenny closes the door
Victoria: My goodness Jenny you seem down.
Jenny: Nah I'm not really down it is just that I found out that both of my neighbors like me but I know I can ONLY choose one.
Victoria: Wow that does need some thinking to do.
Jenny: I know.
Victoria: What are their names?
Jenny: Joe Fenton and Norman Baines.
Victoria: Hmmm Jenny.
Jenny: Yes?
Victoria: Since I am also single I'll look at them tomorrow along with you when you decide to tell the one that you love them i'll take the other one so that way they won't feel left out.
Jenny: Thanks Vikki that means a lot.
Victoria: My pleasure.
