I kinda need to apologize for not posting for a while.... nothing has really gone down or anything, I just haven't had the motivation to work on anything really... I've also been a ball of anxiety and sadness lately and that made me feel like I couldn't write... but I'm gonna try to put out chapters-

SCENE SIX

(JEREMY and MICHAEL in the mall food court. Examining the pill.)

Rich says, "I wish I could reach through the thcreen and thlap it out of your hand-"

"Agreed," Michael adds, acting a little huffy. Jeremy wraps his arm around the boy, trying to help make him feel better.

JEREMY

I hope you're worth four hundred dollars.

MICHAEL

Uh, plus a dollar seventy-five for the Mountain Dew.

"Thankth thmart-ath," Rich says sarcastically.

JEREMY

If this is real...my whole life could change. (Beat.) We should split it. I mean, you helped me get it. We should both benefit, right?

MICHAEL

I don't think that's how it works. Besides, I like knowing that when you're cool, you'll owe me.

"He still abandoned you anyway..." Christine mutters, looking slightly upset.

JEREMY

Well, here goes...everything.

(He puts the pill on his tongue, swallows it with the Mountain Dew. MICHAEL stands up, anticipating for something to happen.)

MICHAEL

How does it taste?

JEREMY

...Minty?

MICHAEL

How do you feel?

JEREMY

Like... (Long pause.) A chump.

MICHAEL

(Sitting back down) Ugh.Nothing? At all? Um, try to say something cool.

JEREMY

(Upset) I think I just blew my bar mitzvah money on a Wintergreen Tic-tac.

MICHAEL

Yeah, not cool.

JEREMY

(Defeated) Please leave me alone to mourn in my chili fries, forever.

MICHAEL

Five minutes. (Gets up)

"If only I hadn't left you to get the Ecto-Coolers... I should've stuck next to you anyways..." Michael sighs, looking at the floor.

Jeremy looks over at him and says, "Micha, it's not your fault-"

JEREMY

Where are you going?
