Because the Night

The Plan

*Paige looks at all of her gear. Inside her bag is one baggie of LSD, one tall bottle of whiskey, glitter paint, and sparkling lighters. Paige smiles to herself*

Paige: Perfect! I'm just about set.

*She looks at the clock*

Paige: Seven already? I have to get going!

*Paige hurries out the door of her apartment*

City Night

*Erin walks home from work in a foul mood*

Erin: Fuck them all to Hell! Assholes! They don’t respect me at all! Fuck!

*Erin stops and looks up at the sky*

Erin: FUCK YOU TO HELL, STACY AMBERS!!! FUCK YOU!!!

*Erin pauses as she looks and sees two teenage boys staring at her. Hello red city!*

Erin: WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU LOOKING AT?!? BEAT IT!!!

*The boys run away as fast as they can. Erin snorts*

Erin: Fucking idiots!

Night Mission

*Paige rushes deep into the night*

*She counts down to the moment in her head*

Paige: I have to get there. I have to get there. I can’t be late!

*Paige keeps on running*

Phone Call

*Erin stops in front of a bar and picks up her phone. She makes the call*

Paige’s Voice Mail: Hey, it’s me. I’m not in right now, but if you leave a message, I might just call you back. Love you, bye-bye.

Erin: *Sigh* Hey babes. My day sucked. Call my back when you get this.

*Erin hangs up and walks into the bar*

Take Me Now

*Paige makes it out to an abandoned open field*

*She takes a look around. Once everything is clear, she opens the bag takes out her “tools”*

*Paige paints glitter all over her face and ties back her hair*

*She lights up many sparklers all around her and looks up at the sky*

Paige: Take me now!

*She drinks the whole bottle and takes the whole baggie of LSD*

*Paige hears music and dances around in the late night before passing out*

So Lonely

*Erin sits in the bar over her drink*

*She looks at her phone*

Erin: Paige hasn’t called. *Shrug and sigh* Time to go check on her again.

*She pays for her drink and walks off*

Sorry Charlie

*Paige opens her eyes to see Erin kneeling in front of her*

Erin: *Smiles* Hey there.

*Paige looks around*

Paige: What happened? Where am I? Am I in Nirvana now?

*Erin shakes her head*

Erin: No. You’re still in New York and it’s Sunday at five in the morning.

*Paige takes it all in at first*

Paige: Oh…
