EXT. FOOTBALL STADIUM - DAY

Andrew, Edison, and Sarah walk up stadium stairs. The stadium is crowded with people talking and cheering. The trio sit down.

SARAH
I’m surprised y’all agreed to come to the game.

ANDREW
Why?

SARAH
Honestly, you two don’t strike me as sports guys.

EDISON
Excuse me? I love sports.

SARAH
My bad.

EDISON
Alrighty. So where’s home base?

Andrew and Sarah look at Edison.

ANDREW
What?

EDISON
The bases? You know? First base, second base, third base?

SARAH
Edison, what game do you think we’re at?

EDISON
Football.

ANDREW
Edison that’s not football. You’re talking about baseball.

EDISON
Are you sure?

ANDREW
Oh my gosh.

SARAH
Brittaney! Over here.

Sarah stands up and waves at Brittaney who comes and sits with them. She is with her boyfriend PAUL.

BRITTANEY
Hey guys this is my boyfriend, Paul.

PAUL
Hey guys!

ANDREW & SARAH
Hey.

EDISON
Hey… Paul.

ANDREW
You like football Paul?

PAUL
Oh yeah. Love the game.

EDISON
Fun fact, there are no bases in football. That’s in baseball. Two different sports.

The others stare at Edison.

EDISON
Look. The players are coming out.

The football players run onto the field and the game begins. Both teams score touchdowns and people cheer.

SARAH
I’m gonna go get a drink. Anyone wanna come?

ANDREW
I’ll go.

Andrew and Sarah leave.

BRITTANEY
Hey I’m actually gonna go get something to eat. Babe you want something?

PAUL
Nah I’m good babe.

BRITTANEY
Ok. I’ll be right back.

Brittaney kisses Paul and leaves. Edison and Paul are alone.

EDISON
So Paul… What’s your major?

PAUL
Engineering. You?

EDISON
Business.

PAUL
Cool.

Paul’s phone rings and he looks at it.



PAUL
Hey a friend of mine is actually at the game. I’m gonna go say hi. Will you tell Britt I’ll be right back.

EDISON
Sure.

Paul leaves. Edison sits alone. He looks to his side where a LITTLE BOY sits with his parents. The little boy is staring at Edison.

LITTLE BOY
All your friends left you.

Edison gets up and leaves to go look for Andrew and Sarah.

Cut to Andrew and Sarah waiting in line for a drink.

SARAH
So Andrew… do you have a girlfriend?

ANDREW
W-why do you ask?

SARAH
Just curious.

ANDREW
Well to answer your question, no I don’t.

SARAH
Did you have one in high school?

ANDREW
Yeah.

SARAH
How was it?

ANDREW
Well, she was nice in the beginning. Actually she was nice the entire time. It was when I broke up with her that things turned ugly.

SARAH
Oh damn.

ANDREW
Yeah. I didn't want to do long distance. She was going out of state. She said that love could triumph miles apart.

SARAH
Hmm.

SARAH
Anyone on your radar who you might ask out?

ANDREW
{Playing it cool}
Uhhhhhhhh no… no one comes to mind.

SARAH
Too bad. Any girl would be lucky to have you.

Cut to Edison walking around the stadium looking for his friends. He turns a corner and sees Paul making out with a girl who is not Brittaney. He hides behind the corner. He fast walks away.

Cut to Andrew and Sarah in the line.

ANDREW
Sarah,... would you uh want to maybe-

Edison runs up to them.


EDISON
Guys… hold on.

Edison kneels and catches his breath. The little boy from before appears near him.

LITTLE BOY
You should really work out more.

EDISON
Where’re your parents?

The little boy walks away. Edison stands up.

EDISON
You are not gonna believe what I just saw.

ANDREW
What?

EDISON
{Smiling}
I saw Paul sucking face with some other girl.

SARAH
Why are you smiling?

EDISON
Because… that means that they will break up.

SARAH
What?!

EDISON
Andrew, you said that when they broke up I could ask her out.

SARAH
{To Andrew}
You said what?

ANDREW
I-I did say that.

SARAH
Both of you are pathetic. Does Brittaney know?

EDISON
I was gonna go tell her.

SARAH
Absolutely not. I’m going to tell her.

Sarah walks off.

ANDREW
Really man?

EDISON
What?

Cut to Brittaney and Paul arguing. Sarah stands behind her. Brittaney slaps Paul and the two girls leave.

INT. ANDREW & EDISON’S DORM - NIGHT

Andrew and Edison lie in their beds.

EDISON
How long do you think I should wait to ask Brittaney out?

ANDREW
Seriously dude. Is that all you can think about? Brittaney just got her heart broken.

EDISON
Sheesh. What’s up with you?


ANDREW
Besides the fact that you’re acting like a complete dick?

EDISON
Yes.

ANDREW
I was about to ask Sarah out, but then you just had to show up.

EDISON
You know what dude. You need to just grow a pair and ask her out. What’s the worst that could happen? She says no. If that happens then you move on.

Edison sits up.

EDISON
Any girl would be lucky to have you Andrew, you’re just too scared to even try. That’s the bottom line.

Andrew stares at Edison. He gets up and leaves. He runs to Sarah’s dorm.

INT. DORM HALLWAY - NIGHT
ANDREW
{To himself}
Sarah I like you and I was wondering if you would want to get dinner or coffee. Yeah that sound good.

Andrew knocks on the door. A frat looking guy answers. His name is CALVIN.

ANDREW
You’re not Sarah.

CALVIN
Sarah it’s for you.

Sarah come to the door. Calvin goes back inside.

SARAH
What’s up?

ANDREW
Uhhhh I was just curious on how Brittaney was holding up.

SARAH
She’s doing fine. She and I are gonna get coffee tomorrow and talk about it.

ANDREW
That’s good. We’ll I should get going. You’re clearly busy with a group project.

SARAH
Group project? Oh you mean Calvin. No he’s my boyfriend.

ANDREW
Boyfriend? You never mentioned you had a boyfriend. Or that his name was Calvin.

SARAH
We’ve only been dating for a few weeks. We met in math. He’s in Sigma Alpha.

ANDREW
Cool. Cool cool cool. We’ll he seems like a good guy.

SARAH
Yes he is.

ANDREW
Well uh goodnight.

SARAH
Goodnight.

Andrew walks sadly back to his dorm. He opens the door and enters. Edison and Brittaney are making out on Edison’s bed.

INT. ANDREW & EDISON’S DORM - NIGHT

ANDREW
What the hell?!

Edison and Brittaney pull apart surprised.

EDISON
Oh hey bud. Where’d you go?

Andrew doesn’t answer and gestures at Edison and Brittaney.

EDISON
I know what this looks like and it’s exactly what you think it is.

END.
