Just hide in the office.
(Footsteps approaching)
[Lily opens the door]
Hey sweetheart, I am sorry I had to wake you up but the door was locked from the inside today. Are you okay?
Yes, Dad, I am okay. Maybe I just locked it by mistake.
No problem, go to sleep. It's 1.30 already. (smiles Menetta)
Yeah. (nervously) Dad, you want something?
Don't worry honey, I'll take it. I am going to freshen up first.
No (Shouts Lily) I mean, umm the washroom is not working, but you can use my washroom.
What happened?
The (thinking) umm, the pipe - the pipe is broken.
Which pipe? Let me see.
No-no, you have to freshen up first, you can use my washroom, you are so tired already. We'll see it tomorrow?
(suspiciously) Okay honey ( smiles Menetta ) and moves upstairs.
( exhales Lily and Jones )
( In slow voice ) I should go now.
Yeah, you should (smiles Lily)
[Lucas and Ellyn]
What should we do?
Let's break out of the window.
Yeah, that's a good idea.
[They open the window move out quietly and close it]
Did you get the pictures?
Yeah, we did.
Did you get a kiss? (laughs Lucas)
(Jones looks angrily)
No (chuckles again) seriously man, what was that about?
It was just a friendly hug, she was crying and she hugged me that's it.
Ohh! (laughs Lucas)
[After dropping Lucas to his place, Ellyn and Jones in the car]
So. umm
So?
Lilly and you.
What? No (scoffs) No-No (exhales)
I saw you guys, she is nice
Yeah, she is but the truth is, I am over her
You are?
Yeah. (They both look at each other, Jones stops the car) Reached.
(They don't stop looking at each other, Jones holds Ellyn's neck, slowly rubbing his thumb on her cheeks and they kiss)
Good night says, Ellyn.
Good night (Smiles Jones and moves out of the car)
[Next day at school]
(Lucas and Jones walking in the corridor, Ellyn comes up. They both look at each other and smile, Lucas looks weirdly)
See you at my house, about that document thing?
Yes (smiles Ellyn)
Ahm - Ahm, Am I supposed to come? (sarcastically says, Lucas)
Yeah, I mean you said you have some work today! Right?
Me?
Yes (opening his eyes widely)
Yes, yes oh I remember now, I have to go for some stationary stuff.
Okay, bye see you at your house.
Woah, what was that, you guys dating?
Not exactly, I mean, I don't know yet, we just kissed yesterday.
Jonesbones bones bones (Mockingly says, Lucas)
Shutup.
[Jones and Ellyn at Jones's place]
Do you remember, when my mom told us the story she mentioned that William didn't leave the group, do you know who is William?
Yes, William is Lucas's dad.
What?
Yup.
Maybe we should talk to him, he could tell us something important which was inside the circle, I mean was a part of it too, and he didn't die.
No, trust me you don't want to talk to that man, he is the opposite of Lucas. Plus, he hates me. Did you bring the documents with you?
Yes, I printed them. (hands over the documents to Jones)
These are the names of students who died.
Oh my god, what does this tattoo mean?
They are all different, but similar in some way. We have to find what is this.
What if we try to draw them together or something.
Yeah, that could be done. I'll work on it, but before that, we have to know how many of them died. Because as far I can recall your mom said she saw 10 students dead in that forest.
But maybe they were not dead.
What do you mean?
I mean, my mom said that the new guy was not breathing but he woke up, right?
Yeah-yeah, that can be possible.
Hey, look at this, (reads Jones) Power needs sacrifice and sacrifice needs trust. Why is this all written in bold?
What does that mean?
I don't know, maybe those murders were sacrifices and this is some stupid ritual for worshipping the devil.
Yes, this is psycho.
Yes (throws documents on the table)
But I think I have figured some story out of it.
Speak up.
I think that guy believed in some kind of devil, he built up a team, did stupid things which my mother didn't tell us what stupid things and he sacrificed his team to 'the' devil, he believed, he was a complete psycho, who tried to kill students and called it sacrifice and believed he'll get power out of it.
Yeah, I think that could be the story but where did they vanish, and how is he back? And what these tattoos mean?
So many blanks! (exhales Ellyn) But we'll figure them out, don't worry (holding Jones's hand)
Yeah (looking in her eyes)
Ellyn kisses Jones slowly, touching his hands and neck.
Jones breathing intimately holds her waist, Ellyn sits on his lap, holding Jones's neck rubbing her hands in his hair and they kiss.
[Ding-ding]
Normally, I never have guests. (exhales Jones)
(chuckles Ellyn) It's okay.
[Jones opens the door]
Oh! Lily?
(Smiles) Can I come in?
Yeah? Yes-Yes, please.
Oh, it's so long I've been to your place. (sees Ellyn) oh, you have a guest, you didn't tell me. Did I interrupt you guys?
No-no, not at all, says Jones.
Hi
She is Lily, my friend.
Hi Lily.
And Lily, she is Ellyn. My umm? friend?
Oh, so you're new?
Yeah.
Strange, I never noticed you.
Umm, so Lily why are you here? I mean do you need some help?
No, I just came to talk to you.
What? What do you want to talk about?
Umm, about yesterday.
I think I should go, says Ellyn.
(exhales Jones)
Ellyn moves out.
What do you want to talk about yesterday?
I said I like you, but what about you? I always thought you liked me.
Yeah, I mean I did.
Lily smiles.
But, now I don't like you that way, I mean I always chased you, but you treated me like shit. And I don't feel for you that way now.
No, it's not true, holding Jones's hands.
Ahm, I just came for my phone, I forgot it, says Ellyn. I should go.
No, no it's nothing like you saw.
It's okay Jones.
Shit, (sits Jones) Why are you here now? You were never there for me when I needed you, now when you have no one, you want things back to normal?
Hey, stop yelling at me, I didn't come back to you because I have no one left, I am here because I like you. I didn't know, you like her, I am going now.
[Door shuts]
(exhales Jones) Jones tries to call Ellyn (leave a message after the beep) throws the phone on the table and picks up the documents, tries to draw tattoos on the paper.
Jones picks up the laptop and searches for 'Devil symbols', he finds something similar to what he drew.
He picks up the phone and moves out of his home. He sees Ellyn's room's lights on and climbs the tree and knocks on the window.
For real? says Ellyn, this is not a movie. (opens the window)
No, it's a novel. (smiles Jones)
Oh, and who the female lead is, huh? Lily? Oh. I thought you are over her, Oh! I get it, you lied ( says Ellyn angrily)
Hey, hey, hear me out, okay. It is not what you saw.
Oh, really? Then, what was that? I suppose I was your normal hookup or something.
No (Jones holds Ellyn's mouth) Let me speak, she held my hand because I said I don't like her anymore because she treated me like shit who chased her everywhere but now I don't feel for her like that, I love Ellyn) Exhales Jones. I am sorry, I mean I like you, I didn't mean to say that love thing.
Ellyn smiles and kisses Jones. Jones holds her tightly and kisses her back. He throws her on the bed and removes his T-shirt.
[Knock knock] Ellyn, are you up?
They both look at each other. She touches his face and kisses his neck, I am sorry.
It is your dad, Ellyn. He is here.
What? slowly says Ellyn in a shocking tone, why is he here?
Should I stay?
No- no, I'll see you tomorrow. They kiss each other.
Coming mom, says Ellyn.
Be careful says, Ellyn in a slow voice.
Okay.
