Rory and Sarah are walking together through a dimly light area.

Rory: "So, we're finally getting some alone time?"

Sarah: "Hmm... Don't overthink it."

Rory: "Come on, all the constant teasing, the texting, the looks... Don't you have feelings for me?"

Sarah: "I'm not sure. It's just, i've never had great luck with guys."

Rory: "You seem pretty chill now, don't you feel that way?"

Sarah: "I do, it's just, i've been hurt before, so it's all kinda daunting."

Rory: "Oh, look. I promise I will never hurt you. I don't get what's so daunting? Sorry if I seem a little pushy here, but you have so little confidence in what we can have together. Do you not think it's funny? We talk so much and we clearly have a spark there, but we never meet up and go on dates, it's killing me"

Sarah: "Yeah, funny i know..."

Rory: "Stop. Sarah. *He stands in front of her, looking down into her eyes, she's stunned* You are... you're amazing. You're funny, cute and just, great, in general. Sorry, I'm bad with words... But I really think you just need to rip the band aid off."

Sarah: "Yeah..." *She shrugs*

Rory: "Every time i'm with you I get such a rush. Every time our eyes meet, every time you do that cute little face and voice, every silly little joke you make. It drives me insane. I want you, and only you. Since you've come into my life we've clicked so quickly, I love everything about you."

Sarah looks at him, her stomach fills with nerves, she feels overcome with so many different feelings.

Rory: "Sarah... I, think I love you?"

They stare into eachothers eyes, Sarah's breath is shaky, Rory is riddled with nerves. He takes her hands, and they both lean in closer...

Their lips lock gently, she pulls away, looks at him, breathing heavily... And goes back in for more. They kiss passionately, under a dim streetlight. It's cold, and there are few stars in the sky. Their eyes closed as they engage in a passionate moment together under the single light. Rory places his hand behind her ear, and leans in more.

Sarah let's out a small moan into his mouth, her knees almost buckle. They both pull away, staring into each-others eyes. Breathing deeply.

Suddenly, they hear a branch snap. They both look in the direction of the sound sharply.

Sarah: "*giggles* how was that for ripping the bandaid off?"

Rory: "Good, actually. I've wanted to do that for so long"

Sarah: "I'm glad i kept you waiting, that was... Something..."

Rory: "I hope that's the first of many..."

Sarah: "It should be *kisses him on the cheek*".

Rory smiles.

They continue walking.

We cut to the back streets in the middle of town.

Andrew is walking alone to get back home. It's lit dimly, and the streets are quite empty. Probably due to the murders. An impromptu curfew will have been put in place by the locals.

Andrew is humming.

He enters a shop.

Shopkeeper: "We're closing in 5 so don't be too long."

Andrew: "Okay pal"

Andrew looks around for some snacks, he grabs a milkshake and chocolate bar.

Andrew takes them to the counter.
