Romantic Comedy: Extra Side of Love

EXT. DRIVEWAY - MORNING

AVA gets into her car and puts on her seat belt. BRIAN gets into his car and puts on his seat belt. They both roll down their windows.


BRIAN

I love you babe!

BRIAN puts his car into drive and starts to drive away.


AVA

I love you...more!

BRIAN slams on the brakes, puts it in reverse, parks the car and sticks his head out the window.


BRIAN

What the eff did you just say?


AVA

I said I love you, more!


BRIAN

That's bullshit and you know it!

BRIAN aggressively takes off his seat belt, gets out of the car and slams the door. AVA does the same.


BRIAN

My love for you is like a grilled cheese sandwich with crispy bacon inside of it!


AVA

Pfft. My love for you is like a double decker grilled cheese with bacon inside of it!


BRIAN

My love for you is like a triple decker grilled cheese with bacon inside of it, and extra bacon on the side!


AVA

Mmmm! My love for you is like a triple decker grilled cheese with bacon inside of it, and bacon on the side. But get this, there's no bread...the bacon is the bread!


BRIAN

Yum! My love for you is like all of that shit you just said, but with a side of cheese fries with bacon sprinkled on top...and the whole thing is deep fried.


(PAUSE)



AVA

Oh my God...That's a heart attack.


BRIAN

Yeah...I know...I would die for you.

AVA
I would die for you too.

BRIAN
Let's die together, but, when we're old.

AVA
Like The Notebook.

BRIAN
Exactly like The Notebook.


AVA and BRIAN embrace each other.

AVA

Let's call out of work.


BRIAN

I'm never going to work again.


They kiss and go inside their house.

BRIAN
(VOICE-OVER)
I'm glad you didn't go with the quadruple grilled cheese. Because that would have been impractical.

FADE OUT:
