Script: Fulcrum

Charles, a sophomore, is studying for a test in the school library. Dominic, Charles? best friend, comes in and disrupts Charles? studying. Serra, a senior and also the student assistant librarian, thinks Charles is cute; until she finds out that he helps Dominic cheat. Charles has had an eye on Serra for some time, but hasn?t had the courage to talk to her. Dominic comes in later with Quinn, who has a copy of the test. Charles eventually makes a cheat-sheet. Just as he leaves the library to take his test, he stops by the garbage can, deliberating whether he should toss the sheet out or not. Charles looks at Serra, who ignores him.

i was up until 7am est working on this. i don't know what it was about the plot that was so intriguing, but i just had a wonderful time writing it. i especially enjoyed writing dominic's part. it's rare that i get the chance to be that vulgar and creative. i borrowed a lot of old comments that i used to use, but came up with some new ones as well.
