FARKLE (to ZAY)

Farkle time?

ZAY

No time...no Farkle time.I don't need those memories.

LUCAS

Hey,guys!Check it out!

The three of them open their mouths,watching her enter.Her name is Juliet.

FARKLE

Wow!

ZAY

Why do the best things happen when we are leaving?

FARKLE

You think it's a new girl?

ZAY

I hope so.

FARKLE

Let's say hi.

ZAY

Hold on,Romeo.It's my turn.

FARKLE

You can't even say hi to her.

ZAY

Don't challenge me.

Than,Juliet comes closer to them.

JULIET

Excuse me...are you students here,guys?

LUCAS

I mean,look at us.We are still in battle with this school.

ZAY

And we are gonna win.

FARKLE

Come with me.I'll make you feel more comfortable.

JULIET

Thanks.(to ZAY and LUCAS) See you later,guys.

They walk towards classroom.

ZAY

That filthy bastard!

LUCAS

You let him do that.

ZAY

He's like a ball,you touch it and it just goes away.

LUCAS

I don't believe in love at first sight or that she might be interested in Farkle.

ZAY

Dude.What are you thinking about?I am just mad that she noticed him before me.I don't care about love at all.

He enters the class.

LUCAS

Yeah,right.You do not care.

This one will play.I bet on it.

RILEY

Lucas's right.It's the rules.

FARKLE

What do you two know about football,anyway?(to LUCAS) I almost sent you to the hospital the last time we played.

Juliet laughs,looking at Farkle.

FARKLE (CONT.)

I think you'd be great football player.I mean...way better than us,actually.

LUCAS

You did not say that.

FARKLE (to JULIET)

I believe in you.

JULIET

Thanks.

Okay,you are not drunk.And you are not rude.So,what's the matter?

RILEY

Sorry,but I don't need part time people in my life.You're either with me or you are not.You can't just come and go as you please.

FARKLE

You were normal until now.What happened?

RILEY

I don't know what we are.Sometimes,I feel like we're really close but then,on the other days you treat me like this.

FARKLE

Like what?

RILEY

We are friends who are sleeping together.Is it normal?

FARKLE

It was good decision.

RILEY

If I treated you the way you treat me,you'd hate me.

FARKLE

I am lost.How do I treat you?What did I ever do to you?

RILEY

You are my best friend,my human diary and my other half.You mean the world to me and I love you.

FARKLE

Okay.

RILEY

That's all you say?

FARKLE

I love you too.

RILEY

We are not friends with benefits.But,I know what we are.

FARKLE

Than...explain it to me.

RILEY

We care for each other.We're more than friends,but we're not a couple either.Well,I guess...we're just somewhere in between.

FARKLE

That's not truth.We agreed to this.Both of us.

RILEY

Maybe...we don't really know what we want from each other.

FARKLE

This is our relationship.Just friends who tend to kiss each other and spend some time together...nothing serious.

RILEY

I don't want any of it anymore.

FARKLE

You are confused.

RILEY

Do you know what confused even means?

FARKLE

When it's real,you'll know,you won't be confused about it.

RILEY

Well...I'm giving you a choice.There comes a time when you have to choose between turning the page or closing the book.

FARKLE

Well...i choose the third option.I'll keep reading book.

And he kisses her,they keep kissing,as they fall on bed.

FARKLE

Are you kidding me?This will open their eyes.

Than,Zay and Lucas come.

LUCAS (to FARKLE)

What's wrong with you?You are killing the only good thing we have in this damn school.

ZAY

Don't mess with football,Farkle.

JULIET

And...it's negative critics.

Than,Maya and Riley come closer,with leaflets too.

MAYA (to FARKLE)

Are you seriously fighting for girl rights?That's not Farkle.

FARKLE

Girls and boys should be equal.

He puts his hand over Juliet's shoulder.

FARKLE (CONT.)

I am Farkle.And what I do?Help friends in need.

RILEY

You met her a day ago.

FARKLE

Football should be available for girls too.

ZAY

Farkle...it's like being on Hitler's side.

FARKLE

Shit up,Mussolini.

ZAY

Okay,guys.Officialy...we are having girls on football training.

FARKLE

Look,you guys are my friends.What the hell happend to you?

We should stick together on this.

MAYA

You are gonna get yourself in trouble,Farkle.

END ACT ONE

ACT TWO

FADE IN:

INT.JOHN ADAMS HIGH SCHOOL – HISTORY ROOM – DAY

Cory is teaching a lesson.We notice something written on the board:Life rules.

CORY

Life rules.Someone knows a thing about it?

MAYA

Break them,break them again and keep breaking them.

LUCAS

Good one.

CORY

No,no and no again.

JULIET

I think life rules are supposed to present something really important in our lives.We need to follow them in order to keep feeling alive.

CORY

Correct.

RILEY

What's the point anyway?Nobody does it anymore.

CORY

There are three simple rules in life.What's the secret of life?

FARKLE

We don't know.You should tell us.

CORY

There are three rules and remember them...forever.

Everyone pay big attention to what Cory is about to say.

CORY

First rule:If you don't go after what you want,you'll never have it.Second rule:If you do not ask,the answer will always be no.And the third rule:If you do not step forward,you will always be in the same place.

MAYA

Those are...really nice rules.

RILEY

Yes,there are.

Riley turns around,looking at Farkle,he looks at her too,maybe not at the same way and for the same reason.

CORY

Follow the rules.But,the most important is to follow your heart.

INT.MATTHEWS APARTMANT – RILEY'S ROOM – DAY

Maya and Riley are sitting at the Bay Window.

MAYA

Follow your heart.Follow the rules.Stupid rules.But...awesome rules.

RILEY

He just...likes her.

MAYA

Juliet?I don't know,Riley.

RILEY

He never fought for my rights.Never.

MAYA

It's just stupid football.It's what makes him fight for girl rights.

RILEY

Remember the experiment?Sludge?

MAYA

Yes.

RILEY

He never fought for my rights.

MAYA

Riley...you need to realize that he doesn't care.And you could be missing out on someone who does.

Riley,silent,quiet,thinking.Than,Farkle enters through window.

FARKLE

Ladies!

MAYA

Oh,boy.Talk to him.

Maya exits through window.We notice music in the background:

Say Something by Christina Aguilera feat A Great Big World.

FARKLE

Hello.

RILEY

I want to break all this stupid unofficial thing that's going on with us.

FARKLE

What?Why?

RILEY

I don't understand our relationship.Sometimes we're just friends,sometimes we're more than friends and sometimes I'm just a stranger to you.

FARKLE

Riley...

RILEY

What's going on with us?Are we dating?Are we sleeping together?Are we friends?Are we something?

Farkle smiles.

FARKLE

What do you want?

RILEY

I want to be adored,loved and cared for.If you are looking for a friends with benefits relationship,look somewhere else.

FARKLE

That's what we both wanted.

RILEY

Can I have that jacket,please?

We notice Farkle's wearing the same jacket he wore when they first hugged after Texas event.

FARKLE

Sure.

He gives his jacket to Riley.

RILEY

We are more than friends,but less than couple.This is more than friendship,but less than relationship.

Farkle looks at her,a bit sad,but accepting the truth.They hug,deeply.The music ends.

INT.RESTAURANT – NIGHT

Maya and Lucas are sitting for the table.

MAYA

This is too much expensive,Lucas.

LUCAS

It's good enough for you.I'd buy you the most expensive things If you asked for.

Maya smiles.

MAYA

You know I love you,right?

LUCAS

Sure.

MAYA

We need time.Both of us.

Lucas nods.

LUCAS

You would consider getting back with me?You want that?

MAYA

All this past months were one real hurricane for all of us.I liked Josh,I thought I really loved Farkle and I still have feelings for you.

LUCAS

So...I win.

MAYA

I want to think before we rush into this relationship.

LUCAS

If that's what you want...I'm fine with it.

They both smile,holding hands.
