JOHNNY
(to Ethan)
Hey Esther..I would assume that
YOU didn't accidently told the
Goddess that none of us is single
right??


ETHAN
(defending)
Seriously I didn’t sell anybody out
except Timmy and what make you so
sure that Layla won’t tell her anything,
EVERYTIME she sees you, you’re with a
different girl..


JOHNNY
Fuck..text her and tell her to shut up...


ETHAN
(laughs)
You just called me Esther and you
want a favour now?? Do it yourself..


JOHNNY
Eliza....you’re great sister..come
let me give you my signature..


Ethan laughs and gives Johnny the middle finger, in the background Sweet Emotions, by Aerosmith plays

DAVION
Hey..where is Timmy and Peter??


ROB
Punch card.....I just don’t understand
why girls love to talk on the phone so
much..lets say you just saw her for the
whole fucking day..they call and it is
at least an half hour chat..


DAVION
Better than if you didn't see her the
whole day..it would be hours!


ROB
YEAH! And they will go on about their
day..how bad it was..or how good it
was..Who the fuck cares about their day
man?? Or what the fuck they did 3 minutes
ago??


JOHNNY
Nothing comes free in this world..
I had this fuck buddy..


Ethan, Rob, Tracy and Davion stares at Johnny with the eyes of jealousy

JOHNNY
(grins)
After I AM DONE...again I am stressing
(points at himself) AFTER I AM DONE she
talks about her day..she whines about
her bitch ass boss to me..she whines
about not meeting her quota, she whines
about how her family treating her like
dirt..can you imagine..


All the guys goes deep into their thought and sighs off their depression

DAVION
(to Johnny)
Fuck you man..


JOHNNY
I am not bragging..just reminding you
all..there is no such thing as a free
lunch..


ETHAN
(scoffs)
What about you all?? Don’t you people
need to punch card too?


TRACY
(shows a sad face)
I just got dumped..


ROB
(wide grin)
I am in a meeting..


JOHNNY
THEY are sleeping..even if they are
not..it doesn’t make a difference..


DAVION
She went back to Korea..


Ethan smiles in disgust

ETHAN
Lets go..


The guys leaves the table and head straight for the exit

CUT TO:


I/E. ETHAN’S CAR - ROADS - LATER

The digital clock on the dashboard shows its 3 in the morning now. What it Takes, by Aerosmith is playing on average volume in the background

LAYLA
The match ended with a draw??


ETHAN
Yeah..


LAYLA
Did you win your bet??


ETHAN
Fair game..so no win or lose..and
(puts his left hand up) give me my
ten bucks..I told you Lily would
choose Rob..


Layla grabs his hand and bites it

Ethan pulls his hand away in reaction

ETHAN (CONT’D)
Sore loser..


Layla flashes her tongue at Ethan

LAYLA
Ethan..


ETHAN
Hmm??


LAYLA
Can I stay over at your place??


Ethan smiles

LAYLA (CONT’D)
Very likely that my girlfriends are
gonna get lucky tonight..so I cannot
lose to them..


Ethan starts laughing

ETHAN
Of course....So..did Anabel already
booked Johnny??


LAYLA
I don’t know WHY she likes Johnny so
much..even after knowing he is a pig..


ETHAN
Looks..fame..and..all those other things..


Layla have a moment of malicious joy within her thought

LAYLA
Well..lucky Anabel is sort of a slut
when it comes to all this..


ETHAN
(laughs)
You know....I think I am probably gonna
find out A LOT about Anabel tomorrow..


LAYLA
Huh?? Find out what?? (long pause) OHhh!!!


Ethan turns over to Layla and smile

ETHAN
Johnny believes that as long as it is
not exclusive..we should spread the joy..


LAYLA
(disgusted)
You guys are sick..


FADE TO BLACK.


INT. ETHAN’S ROOM - NIGHT

ETHAN (V.O.)
Can you just look at it in my
perspective..how it actually
sounded in my ears when you
said those things to me??


FEMALE (V.O.)
That’s not the point..my point is
why do you always need so much time
to make a simple decision??


ETHAN (V.O.)
Simple?? You throw me something like
that out of the blues and you call that
a simple decision??


FEMALE (V.O.)
You did not try convince me..you didn’t
even try to say something, all you did
was sat there and say nothing


ETHAN (V.O.)
Naturally..I think every guy will..


FEMALE (V.O.)
Then it was a mistake..


ETHAN (V.O.)
I don’t want things to end like this..


FEMALE (V.O.)
You should have thought that through
then..


ETHAN (V.O.)
I’m sorry..


FEMALE (V.O.)
Are you done??


Ethan wakes up from his sleep, disorientated by the voice over experience, he searches around for his hand phone

Unable to find it, he looks at the clock on the wall in front of him and its 6 in the morning now

Ethan looks at the soundly sleeping Layla next to him and he smiles

Ethan strokes her hair and kisses Layla on the cheek

ETHAN
(whisper)
Good night..


FADE OUT:
