Damien and his friend Tim (who is also Jimmy's friend) are at Damien's house waiting for Jimmy for a guy's night. It's been a week since the breakup
Tim:
Where do I put the soda?
Damien:
On the counter, left of the sofa. Also, what time is it? Jimmy's late again.
Tim:
Uh...
(Looks at watch)
It's Four-twenty, he should be here soon. If anything, lets just start with-
(There's a knock at the door)
See man? That's probably him right there. Go open the door while I start setting stuff up.
(Damien rolls his eyes and goes to the door and opens it. There stands Jimmy, with a chillingly carefree smile upon his face)
Damien:
Hey.
Jimmy:
Oh, hey
(He says smiling).
So sorry I'm late. I couldn't find my keys
(He walks in and heads towards the living room with a strong stride, as if he had just won the biggest award possible, he reaches Tim)
Hey Tim, ready for me to destroy you again?
Tim:
(They laugh a bit)
Naw man, I've been practicing. You're the one getting destroyed today.
(They all sit down before playing)
Damien:
So, how you feeling, Bro? You seem really happy and upbeat today.
Tim:
Yeah, anything special happen? Did ya' meet someone?... You totally met someone. What's her name? Must be pretty amazing to get you in this good a mood.
Jimmy:
Naw, I guess today I just woke up in a very good mood.I can't really explain it, no use trying to explain it though just know I'm happy. Anyway what's the plan?
Damien:
Oh, well first off, I ordered some pizza for later which should be coming in a few minutes like usual. Until then were just gonna play for a while until it gets here. After that were gonna binge watch movies till, I don't know... seven in the morning?
Jimmy:
Sounds like fun! What are we watching though?
Damien:
Oh this weird old movie series Tim brought.
Tim:
(Interrupting Damien)
Wait what? No I just mentioned those movies. I didn't know I had to bring them. I thought you were gonna bring something to watch...
(They all just look at each other awkwardly and then Jimmy and Damien just look at Tim)
Jimmy:

St.Jimmy (A Play)
Genç KurguThis is a play I wrote a long time ago after a breakup. Its a culmination of those emotions and those of breakups beforehand. Heavily inspired by the character Jimmy from American Idiot.
